Have Plasma Rifle, Will Fight for Tylium [OOC/OPEN/SCI-FI]

Have Plasma Rifle, Will Fight for TyliumImage
Welcome to Twilight, Leave your Soul at the door and pick up your E-12, this ain't Earth kid.


Orbiting the star Trappist-1, home to seven sisters packed tightly in their star's embrace, is a world in perpetual twilight, one side locked in eternal day, the other eternal night. Known to its inhabitants as Twilight, this world was ripe for the taking and soon after humanity discovered how to navigate the stars and surpass the speed of light we took Twilight for our own, disparate groups of incalculable ambitions and persuasions making the planet their own, living on the planet's temperate zones, between the cold nightlands and the parched and stark dayside.

Although this project began as a way to slowly empty the Earth of its poor, wretched and undesired Twilight soon came to the attention of AIM Anderson, a Multi-Stellar Company which holds a monopoly on the supply of Tylium, the fuel that runs Humanity's star drives that allows it to travel the Galaxy. Although ruthless, they are the gatekeepers of Humanity's journey beyond the Solar System. Incidentally Twilight was home to massive reserves of Tylium, the most easily reached deposits of which were located on the temperate zone. Competing with Colonists over settling and mining rights, AIM Anderson hired mercenaries and outlaws to harass the frontierspeople into submission.

Facing them were the Sheriffs, a united band of law enforcement officials across the planet, united only by their desire to protect what was rightfully theirs to begin with. They fight for Twilight's freedom and for the safety of its settlers.

To make matters more complicated humanity soon encounters a cache of Alien technology hidden on Twilight, drawing the attention of the United Nations Colonial Administration, who soon sent their agents, the Special Task Group, trusted with the solemn duty of protecting the cache from both settlers and mercenaries.

In this three way shooting war only the strongest, the bravest and the most accurate could survive.

To win is another matter entirely.


A Tylium Mining and Refining company based in Luna, Earth's moon, AIM Anderson owns a monopoly on the supply of Tylium with all major deposits on Earth and the colonies being mined and refined by the company. Consequentially AIM Anderson has a huge influence on politics and winning or losing favor of the company can mean life or death for a politician's career, this has allowed them to operate with impunity especially on frontier worlds where business regulations are almost nonexistent.

On Twilight, the company operates a massive industry concerned with the extraction of Tylium and exporting it offworld, these facilities being guarded by a massive military presence in the form of mercenaries the company has hired. Their primary conflict with the colonist is regarding mining rights on inhabited lands. Colonists generally refuse to give up their land and this has caused the company to adopt an extremely aggressive stance on them, hiring local outlaws to harass settlements.

Without AIM Anderson, the supply of Tylium would be extremely reduced and without exploitation of Twilight, the last untapped reserves outside the frontiers would run out in less than twenty years.
A loose coalition of law enforcement officials and armed colonists whom have banded together to protect their settlements from the roving bands of outlaws plaguing the country.
The sheriffs wish to see a Twilight for the Twilightlanders and they deliberately target the facilties of AIM Anderson in order to drive them off world, often causing civilian casualties in the process, many of whom are colonists themselves.
The United Nations Special Task Group is a top secret organization operating under the purview of the United Nations Security Council. A group operating in the shadows, AIM Anderson and the Sheriffs are only vaguely aware of their existence and presence on the planet as they prefer to stay within their bases and within the excavation sites digging for troves of Alien technology and information. Nevertheless they often come into conflict with both the mercenaries and the colonists and they are on the brink of revealing their existence and fighting an open war on Twilight.
Tidally locked to Trappist-1, Twilight is one of three inhabited worlds (the other two being Tributary and Elysium) in the Trappist-1 system and by far the smallest in terms of population and economic development. It has a population of two hundred thousand colonists whom are spread across the planet's inhabited zone, nestled between the planet's dayside and nightside. The planet is heavily irradiated due to the lack of a magnetic field and special protection is required for prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.

The shooting war between the three sides have slowly been escalating for the past two years. There are signs of a long dead alien civilization across the planet, kept hidden from the populace by the STG. The planet's natural fauna varies extremely, from the predatory extremophile wildlife of the night and day sides to the tame and relatively friendly animals of the habitable zone, the flora of the planet reflects the fauna with similar levels of hostility to human life depending on which side of the planet they inhabit.

Possibly send invites to members of the Cafe, if they still frequent ns. That could help.

Nation Name: Ghondra
Character Name: CMDR. Yuki Murakami
Gender: Female
Affiliation: UN STG
Age: 34
Appearance:
ImageImage

Personality: (One paragraphs at least) Yuki is a woman hardened by violence. She is quiet, never having to raise her voice when talking as her very presence intimidates men twice her size. She is utterly ruthless with complete focus on the mission, often times ignoring a central philosophy of soldiery "No Man Left Behind" in favor of completing the mission, a fact that does not endear her to the men under her command. Nevertheless when not on a mission she deeply cares for the lives of her men and deeply regrets any collateral damage imposed by the actions of her and her men. She also secretly sympathizes with the colonists plight but refuses to allow it to get in the way of her mission.
History: (Two paragraphs at least) Born on Earth, Yuki was the daughter of a UNAS diplomat and a Japanese father who was an executive of AIM Anderson. As a child she was raised in both San Francisco where her mother resided with her husband and in Tokyo where her father lived with his family. A bastard unwanted by her step father and shunned by her father's family, she ran away from home at the age of thirteen and joined a criminal gang in Tokyo. She eventually came to lead the gang and by the age of 18 she was fighting against the Yakuza for control of Tokyo's underworld. She was narrowly defeated and was sentenced to die but was rescued at the last minute by members of the STG, who offered her a place in their ranks. Left with nowhere to go, Yuki left her life of crime and joined the STG.

She quickly rose through their ranks, known as the Yellow Flash by both her enemies and her comrades due to her preference for melee combat and the sheer speed with which she fought. By 31, she was heading a cell of the STG. Yuki was later handpicked by the director to protect the excavation and research sites on Twilight from outlaws and the colonists, singled out for her ruthless personality and utter devotion to the cause. She is a new arrival to the team in Twilight, replacing the old commander who was killed.
Weapons: DC-13 Plasma Pistol/Customized
Customized Vibroblade "Katana"
JK-1836 "SAMURAI" Semi-Powered Armor
Skills: Leadership, Swordsmanship, Agility

This sounds like a good RP to join. I'll try to make an app, but I can't guarantee anything, really, as I'm doing other RPs.

My App

Nation Name: Chronodosia
Character Name: John Storm
Gender: Male
Affiliation: Unaffiliated
Age: 25
Appearance: John has Dark blond hair and Deep blue eyes. He is 5'8" and 166 lbs and Caucasian. John generally wears a old fashioned leather cowboy hat and a flannel button up shirt, leather vest and denim jeans along with his Cowboy boots. Usually seen with his horse, 'Ghost', and pet dog, 'Wrath', John is only seen when he comes back into town.
Personality: (One paragraphs at least) John is Ruthless and Calm when on the battlefield. Off he is just a regular guy with the wants and needs of a regular guy just trying to survive. At the age of 10 John was attacked and left for dead. A passing rancher saw him and took him in, trained him and kept him well. John owes his code to that rancher, John code is to protect the innocent, defend those that are unable to, punish those that prey on the weak, and destroy evil whenever it is found. Able to intimidate those that are just plain to stupid to not mess with the roving cowboy with a high powered sniper rifle..
History: (Two paragraphs at least) John was born in the slums and had to fight just to survive, but even as he fought he eventually got overwhelmed at the age of 10. John was beaten close to death and then left to die. A passing Cowboy, a rancher, found him in the road and took him to the hospital. After he was released from the hospital the rancher took him in and clothed him, fed him, trained him in shooting, and let him have a roof over his head.

John stayed with the rancher and his wife until he was twenty. As a parting gift the rancher gave John a horse, a Pit-Sheppard mix puppy, and his rifle a newly manufactured old style ballistic bold action sniper rifle. When John heard about Twilight he decided to settle there. Using the savings he accumulated from the wages he earned from the ranchers, he bought a ticket to Twilight, a .338 Lapua Magnum ammo box(300 rounds), and ammo making machinery that he set up to be shipped to twilight with him.

John arrived a few month before the shooting between the Sheriffs and AIM Anderson started and he had worked hard enough to have a small property lot and a modest sized house to live in. He made his first kill on Twilight a few days before the shooting war started because he saw a small female girl about to be shot after hearing sounds of a struggle. John just reacted when he saw a teenage girl being held down and raped with a gun to her head, and went into his battle mode where he dose not care about those he kills, and shot the two rapists and would be murderers.
Weapons: John has a old fashion(Accuracy International AWM High Powered Sniper Rifle) bolt action ballistic sniper rifle and the ability(read: machinery) to make more bullets, provided he has the brass and lead needed.
Skills: Marksmanship and shooting
Miscellaneous: (Likes, Dislikes, Theme Song, etc.) Likes innocents, dislikes criminals, likes justice, dislikes corruption
RP Example: (If none write a sample of your writing): LINKs:

Dead Earth I: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=270780
