Story of the Lost Pearl (FT/OOC/App-Only)

Wise men have interpreted dreams and the gods laughed

The Party raises a glass in remembrance of the lost comrades aboard the OST Pearl


70 years ago Oceania had loaded a Pelican-Class transport ship up with future colonists and various things needed to colonize a planet off in the stars and took off to colonize a planet called Terra 6 however along the way there the ship came under trouble in the form of mechanical problems after coming of hyper-drive something went wrong the engines suffered damages and they ended up in system-171 a Dark-Sector which is an area of space that is unexplored, unmapped, and had no access to a communication relays which are very crucial to the OSDF as they allowed fleets to communicate between each other in other systems.

Months later with no confirmation from the Pearl reaching their destination and no new radio messages from with the recent one being months old. So an OSDF fleet that was located near the Pearl last location was given the task of being the search party even searching every part of the system they could nothing good came up and a few months later they were told to abandon the search and go back to their normal duties back home the news about the failed search have left many to mourn as they had loved one or knew people who were on that ship.

fast forward to the 70th anniversary of the disappearance of the OST Pearl an OSDF Cruiser was in the process of jumping from one system to another however they overshot it and accidentally landed in System-171 before they could jump one of the sensor-radar operators detected an unknown ship upon a closer inspecting it was the Pearl so they sent a squad of troops from the Oceanian Cosmic Army (OCA) which is the infantry branch of the OSDF. the first squad went in and hours later they haven't responded this got the crew worried so another one was sent in again something happened to them and they failed to radio with the Cruiser crew marking down the coordinates they would jump skip to another system to access a Communication relay and radio back about their findings.

That's where you volunteers come in we lost 2 valuable squads troops who could've been used somewhere else so it was cheaper to use expendable volunteers from outside the OSDF you'll be part of a new form group called "The Scavs" I heard the name was a nickname to those who explored an old-weapon testing site turned into a DMZ that was later cleanup back on Earth years ago fitting name for what you people will be doing anyway beside money we have decided to allow you people take anything from the ship however can't guarantee you'll be able to find any classified materials on the ship if there is you gonna have to retrieve it and turn it over to us.

General:
1. I am the God Hand What I say is the law
2. No godmodding, Powergaming, and Metagaming
3. Don't be a dick
4. Keep IC in IC and OOC in OOC
5. Please report to me if anyone is breaking the rules
- All NPC actions, Interactions, and encounters are done by me (No exceptions)
-avoid One-liners at least try to avoid them I wanna see at least decent posts I will enforce a paragraph rule if it comes to that
6. like a shipyard boss during the Great Depression choosing people for shifts down at the docks I am the only person (unless I say so) who can accept and deny and any apps that get denied don't need a reason from me

RP:
1. Your can and might die in this RP I don't care if they are important to you
2. No military actions this includes pulling up with your fleet and bombarding the ship I will kick you if you do that you're in an area that has no access to a Communication Relay use common sense

3. Characters
-I will allow players to choose what their character species is however they must have a humanoid appearance so no you can't be a sentient blob of goo creature but you can be a robot just remember there might be restrictions on them
-No magic
-No crazy abilities such as immortality or regenerative abilities

4. Equipment
-You can bring your own equipment and weapons but don't expect to find spare parts and ammo for your staff on the ship
-starting weapon shall be a Cartridge based weapon I don't care if it's cased or caseless
-laser, plasma, energy, and anything that doesn't shoot a bullet would have to be scavenged from the ship
-If needed we will provide uniforms, weapons, and equipment to someone if they don't have the stuff

5. Tech
-This is a Soft-FT meaning there will be no such things as teleportation, regenerating a lost limb, seeing stuff through walls, etc
-Motion trackers will be things however they will be issued to a designated soldier however their use will be limited as the closed confines of the ship will affect the radius of the motion tracker.

Quick question: It was stated that you cannot be a sentient mass of goo, but you can be a robot. So, is a cube-shaped robot allowed?

Edit: Drat! Just realize nonhumanoids aren't allowed. Guess I'm out

A PMT/FT planet inhabited by one-meter-cubic ivory-CRT-monitor-resembling mechanoids called the Comps, which have a keen interest on information tech, manufacturing, and mining (despite having a small amount of mines)

I kind of remade my flag. Incomplete, but it will do for now—Factbooks are under construction.

Hello the non-humanoid only applies if you’re making a flesh and blood character the appearance of robot doesn’t matter as I plan on using robots as both enemies and characters in the RP. So you can use your Cube-shape robot however it can’t have anything crazy like regenerating damages limbs and such and the size not being too large

Don't worry, the Comps aren't scientifically advanced enough to have regenerative mainframes (their alloy is pretty decent at tanking kinetic attacks though. Be wary they combust upon taking excessive damage) Alright, I'll sign up, and pretty sure one meter m3 isn't humongous by most standards. (Are multiple characters allowed?)

OSDF Volunteer Profile

Name: Comp-[0000|0001|5510|0181] alias "Raymond Compsington"
Age: 42
Place of origin: The Computatrum Terram of M-101
Occupation before signing up: Ship electronics and weapon technician at the MCSS Compendium
Reason: General interest in salvaging broken spaceships
Personal items you’re bringing with you: Personal? I do not think there were any
Are you bringing your own equipment? Indeed, attached inside the casing are:
- 1x Comp-standard reparation tools, consisting of Comp-standard adjustable combination wrench, hammer, pliers, chisels, files, drivers (flathead and Philips), Unimeasure (a sort of a digital ruler, its primary feature is the ability to zoom in and out for greater accuracy), welder, and a circular saw
- 1x Componarms COBAR-777, a Comp-made bolt-action rifle using 7.62mm ammunition. Attachments include a suppressor, flashlight, and bayonet
- 1x Componarms COS-9, a 9mm caliber Comp-made pistol. Attachments include a flashlight and suppressor.
- 1x Comp-standard flashlight
An additional compartment was attached above Raymond, like a sort of backpack [300 storage units, each storage unit approximately holding 5 cm3], filled with:
- 7x Componarms 7.62mm COBAR-777 magazine, each magazine filled with seven rounds (made of Emiolum alloy, generally twice more efficient at penetrating organic material, although twice as terrible when it comes to metallic and armored targets) [1 storage unit/stack, 3 mags/stack, 3 storage units taken in total]
- 10x Componarms 9mm COS-9 magazine, each magazine filled with ten rounds (standard material this time) [1 storage unit/stack, 5 mags/stack, 2 storage units taken in total]
- 1x Componarms 7.62mm ammunition box containing 350 bullets (also Emiolum) [20 storage units/box, 20 storage units taken in total]
- 1x Componarms 9mm ammunition box containing 600 bullets (standard material) [15 storage units/box, 15 storage units taken]
- 8x Powersurges, Comp equivalent of a lunchbox, also doubles as an explosive if met with significant impact (Despite being charged fully prior to the expedition, the Comps foresee there will not be any functioning electrical outlets, since the exploration took place on a dead ship), [6 storage unit/surge, 48 storage unit taken in total]


Name: Comp-[0000|0101|1010|1000] alias "Chunk Computactrum"
Age: 23
Place of origin: The Computatrum Terram of M-101
Occupation before signing up: A junior of the Fleshbeing Restorator Corps deployed to Japan on the recent Operation Saisei
Reason: A companion for Raymond Compsington, and the repaircomp in case any flesh-based organism needs moderate fixing
Personal items you’re bringing with you: Pretty sure I am not carrying anything of personal value

Are you bringing your own equipment? You bet I do. On the casing I was equipped:
- 1x Comp-standard flesh surgery tools, consisting of scalpels, scissors, saws (no, not the one used for combat, although this one could be a substitute), suture, tissue and muscle suspenders, various instruments of foreign object extraction, two electric cauterization device (one for sealing blood vessels and the other for amputation sterilization), a disinfectant beamer, and a reusable injector.
- 1x Componarms COSMG-46, a Comp-outfitted 9mm sub-machine gun. The attachment includes a suppressor.
- 1x Componarms COS-9, a 9mm caliber Comp-made pistol. Attachments include a flashlight and suppressor.
Attached to Chunk is another compartment for storing non-equipment items, although its capacity is less superior to Raymond's, being able to contain 200 storage units. Items carried inside are:
- 25x tubes containing nanites for repairing mechanoids (including the Comps themselves) [3 storage units/tube, 75 storage units taken]
- 20x bottles of painkillers [2 storage units/bottles, 20 storage units taken]
- 10x Eastern Edible Energizers, (a food the Comps devised during their humanitarian efforts in Japan which are essentially modified rice shaped into a block laced with a mild amount of caffeine, doused with a liquid consisting of five different spices and herbs), just in case if there were any starving humans on board [6 storage unit/pack, 60 storage units taken]
- 10x Componarms 9mm COSMG-46 magazine, each magazine filled with thirty rounds (standard material) [2 storage unit/stack, 2 mags/stack, 10 storage units taken in total]

Terms and Service
will you adhere to the rules of this RP: [Y/N] Yes

(These last 2 are just RP related and may or may not have an effect on the story)

In case you were to die you acknowledge that due to the type of mission you’ll be partaking we cannot recover your body and that we will lie to your family and/or friends about your death [Y/N] Unable to recover our bodies? Understandable. Lie about our death? Every single Comp in our homeland is our family and friend, and should we be obliterated in this mission, feel free to email/telegram the M-101 Alienground Postmortem Office. We value honesty more than everything else.

After submitting the application and if it is approved you acknowledge that you are legally considered to be part of the OSDF under the Foreign volunteers' Service Article section 4 meaning you will have to abide by OSDF martial laws but also will receive benefits that will extend to your family [Y/N] N. We appreciate your offer, but assuming we completed the mission still alive, nothing beats returning home and sharing our stories with our fellow Comps (of course, should there be classified documents discovered on board, we will omit that part from our retelling)
