"Old Earth got used up. We sucked it dry and then ran for the stars."
"There's still humans down there. Scratching out some kind of living. I won't call it humanity though."
"Pirates, slavers and scavengers. Picking the flesh off every last thing they can. Would be bad enough, if that was the only thing you'll find down there. I've heard talks of ghouls and mutants. Aye, and worse..."
Grissom City, Terra Una, 2296
"I have a job for you, Major."
Rene swirled the offered whiskey around in her glass and took a sip, savouring the sensation as the liquid warmed the back of his throat. "It's not Major anymore, Mister Belmore. I'm just a civilian now."
"A single mission, very risky," Belmore continued, ignoring Rene's correction. "I don't expect all of you to survive. Those that do, never need to work another day in their life." Rene eased back in her chair and listened. Evidently Belmore wanted to give her his full sales pitch. "I have a ship purpose built for the job and dossiers for a potential crew. Of course, the personnel who will accompany you on this mission is entirely at your own discretion."
"I'd say it sounds to good to be true," replied Rene.
There was no warmth behind Belmore's thin smile. "I was expecting you to ask me what the job was rather than offer doubt."
Rene took another taste of whiskey. "Alright. I'll bite. What's the job?"
"I want you to go to Earth."
Your character has recently been contacted by Rene Vassuer. The former soldier has heard about your abilities and is keen to bring you on board for an expedition. If interested, the crew will be meeting on Helios station before embarking on a dangeroud journey back to the home world.
If interested, please leave a message along with a brief character description of who you wish to play.
I would be particularly interested in a pilot, engineer, doctor and scout but all roles will be considered.
I want this to be a reasonably detailed and literate rp and will be asking for a writing sample before character approval.
Any questions, please feel free to ask.
Many thanks,
Shannon

On very, very, rare occasions there may be unexplained, POSSIBLY supernatural events. Minor "environmental" magic. Perhaps implies the existence of a deity or supernatural entity. Or perhaps it's just tricks?
Far future, perhaps interstellar travel (faster than light)
More combat than not. The setting may be at war, and the characters will likely get involved whether or not they seek it out.
Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.
I think I’d be interested in this. What kind of engineer are you looking for, combat or mechanical/aerospace?
Mechanical but someone who would be useful in a fight too would be ideal.
Cool. I just joined so I don’t have any characters created, but I think I’ll work on one with that specific role in mind.
Awesome. I'm a newbie here too 
Feel free to PM me with any questions or ideas.
Feel free to PM me with any questions or ideas.
is this humans only or are aliens welcome? the plot seems to suggest only humans but I figured I would ask. I love space operas and really anything space related but I really don't play humans so much.
Yeah, the intention is for this to be human only.
At least for the expedition crew
At least for the expedition crew
