Welcome to Promethia! [T, discussion/SU]
There's a saying here on Promethia; nobody comes here cause they want to. Some people come out this way to make a new life on a planet far from home. Others are on the run from the law, and some just get dropped here by a faulty warp drive and the luck of the Devil himself. We're on the border out here, far away from civilization and usually on our own. And who are you? You got stranded here like most of the good folk who end up on this godforsaken hunk of rock, maybe you were headed out to a vacation to see the stars in a luxury cruiser, maybe a bounty hunter after a big catch of the local scum. Me? I'm nobody important. But why don't we spin a little story about Promethia, to pass the time? The locals say some of you newcomers are saints. Some of you I'd reckon for cousins of demons, but I got a name for you. You gotta earn it though. Then maybe I'll tell ya. Gather round, kids, cause old Roach is gonna tell you a story bout the heroes of Promethia... And it starts right here, in the little town o' Shipwrech...
Welcome to Promethia! is an RP about survival on the hostile fringe world of Promethia. Far from Earth and on the very edge of the galaxy's spiral arm, Promethia was a prison world before settlers accidentally crash landed on the surface and became stranded. It's recently become a place of interest for people looking to start over, to escape the law or just to get away from civilization. Between the hostile native inhabitants and the violent criminals using the world as a safe haven from the law, the little town of Shipwrech is in need of some help to make it in the harsh environment. Maybe you're a lawman come to hunt down an old rival, or a treasure hunter looking for cashes of alien tech. Anything can happen on Promethia... but no one stays because they want to. A series of adventures on an alien planet, a space western one might say! So why not kick up your heels and knock off the dust?
__________________
There's some structure we gotta lay down right quick, before I start spinnin' a yarn. Every word's true, I promise ya that.
1) I reserve the right to kick out or kill any characters for any reason if rules are being broken. If a character is killed, you must make a new one to continue playing.
2) Promethia is a dangerous place for a hero, and rumor has it some force on the planet actively counterbalances the threats that come it's way. God modding will be met with violent wildlife.
3) Replies are to be a minimum of a paragraph long. One liners will be shot on sight.
4) Promethia is a dangerous place for anyone living on it, but no one really wants to see your guts. Really, put them back in. Gore and excessive swearing is not allowed.
5) You aren't required to play a heroic character, but all characters not of that alignment will be starting in places that are not Shipwrech.
6) Have fun or I'll eat your head.

Now, let's learn about our intrepid heroes. Who are they, what makes 'em tick, and most importantly... How good's their aim?
Name: First and last, if applicable.
Nicknames: What do they like to be called, or hate to be called but get called anyways because it stuck?
Title: Say you were a video game character. What would your boss title be?
Age: Age, if applicable.
Gender: Gender, if applicable
Species: You're one of them robots, aintcha? (Custom species can be introduced, but most characters will be humans or robots. Aliens must be humanoid enough to not be seriously handicapped in a human centric town.)
Personality: Take some time and tell us about yourself (A good five sentence paragraph will do.)
Appearance: Take a paragraph to tell us what you look like.
History: What brings you to Promethia, kid? (Give us two paragraphs about your character's history, ending with how they came to be on the fringe world of Promethia)
Abilities: Good with a wrench? Handy at making explosives? Maybe ya got a good aim and a quick draw? (Specie attributes should go here, but different species should also have distinct weaknesses to balance their strengths)
Equipment: All characters will be given a class twelve communications device with hologram capabilities, courtesy of Sparky the town mechanic. What else did you bring along? Includes cybernetic enhancements and specie-specific parts such as claws or mandibles or wings. You know you want a jetpack.
Other: Anything I missed or anything not fitting in the above sections.
