RPG - Sigma Systems

Okay okay, I know this might look a little too much like Outcasts, but I think this is a legitimate RPG to post up, only because the Sigma Systems fascinated me so much.

So.... rules and whatnot:

RULES:
1. Your posts MUST, I repeat, MUST be in complete sentences, and in the English language. If we get the occassional misspelling or missed capitalization, I'm not going to throw a conniption, but please be reasonable here folks. Complete English sentences, with capitalization and punctuation. Otherwise, I might just tweak your post myself. Also, if everyone wrote in the third-person, that'd make things a heck of alot easier too.

2. There is not NO LIMIT to posts you can make per day. So... post away.

3. If you're first starting off, and I'm sure many of us are at this point, you can only start off in Sigma-13, Sigma-17, or Sigma-19. You are allowed to travel to the following neighboring systems ONLY: Frankfurt, New Berlin, Honshu, Chugoku. No others, unless I advise otherwise. (I will allow you to start in any of the above neighboring systems if you feel so compelled to be a part of the Rheinland or Kusari Police or Military Forces; also if you want to be a Blood Dragon or Bundschuh. But please, no Kusari intrusions into Rheinland or vice-versa.)

4. NO Very Heavy Fighters unless requested first. And you have to work your way up to a VHF. I will allow you to start off with Light or Heavy Fighters, or a freighter.

5. For the sake of making things interesting, I will allow Freelancers in this RPG. If you're not a Freelancer, you must be part of the following factions:
*Orbital Spa and Cruise
*Kishiro Technologies
*ALG Waste Disposal
*Gas Miners Guild
*Junkers
*Cryer Pharmaceuticals
*Samura Industries

6. Please try to keep the members of each faction relatively equal. It makes things much more diverse.

7. Make sure to include your character's name, their ship, their base/system at the time of the post, and what faction they belong to.

And being the nice guy I am, I'll allow someone else to make the first post.

So let the games begin. ^_^

(Yes.... I hadn't thought of that. I will allow Blood Dragons and Bundschuh, but no sudden revolutions of government in Kusari or Rheinland, okay?)

Can we have Bounty Hunters? If so, ill change this post.

Name: Toby "Talon" Ryan
Ship: CSV (im gonna want one someday, so im requesting a Sabre)
Location: Yanagi Depot, S13 Gas Cloud
Faction: Freelancer currently working as a Junker

Talon was ecstatic. A rather drunk Outcast had told him (for a few credits) about a lost Cardamine shipment. The freighter had flown into a paticuarly volatile patch of gas. He immediately went to the hangar, and climbed into his ship.

It was an ugly beast, the CSV, but it did the job. Sacrificing weapons and armour for improved cargo space, (lets say 300) it was a useful tool in the Junkers' inventory.

Talon blasted out of the hangar, heading for the co-ordinates the Outcast had given him. He knew the Outcast would sober up soon, and go looking for the ship himself.

After searching for two hours, Talon finally found what he was looking for. The Dromedary's cargo hold was mostly intact, but the engine was heavily damaged. With no power, the pilot must of died of starvation.

Talon switched on a small cutting laser attached to his CSV. He cut open the cargo hold and engaged his tractor, snapping up the cardamine. Now all he had to do to make his fortune was to sneak past the Rheinland Police and onto Berlin....

Post Wed Aug 25, 2004 1:43 pm

GMG are friendly to seluka, bouty hunters are not here, in sigma-13. that is what he know so far in here. ah, forgot the neutral junkers... the leaders off black market...

seluka walked to the place where they sell comodities, and looked for some artifact sellers. he knew that corsairs bring large ammount off them in the past, outcast brings cardamine in here. seluka sees a corsair pilot and walked to him.
he asked him if he had some artifacts what he want to sell. the corsair toke him to a place where the artifacts where stalled out for sell, seluka bought some off the artifacts and had to pay 7000 credits for thus artifacts.

he toke them to his ship and loaded them in the "T-sungo".
after that he went to the bar for drink and boought some more drinks for 750 credits and food for 990 credits so he can get back to Kyoto base in chukogu.

Name: Johnathan Faires
Ship: Humpback
Credits: 527,687
Location: Planet New Berlin
Faction: Freelancer

"Sidewinder fang." John said to the bartender. After he got his drink, he sat down at the table and watched the TV.
"In other news today, several Outcasts have been arrested in involvement with project 'Dara Dan Doah.' The operation to over through the Rheinland government.
The operation has been successfully eliminated and for the first time in the history of Rheinland, the Outcast problem is under control. After the commercial break... President Jacobi's proposal to lift the artifact ban in Liberty. More on this when we return."

By this time, he was already drunk. He had downed three fangs already, and was walking to the restroom.

After being in the restroom for almost an hour, and vomiting six times, he finally made his way back to the dining area. He spied a couple in the corner eating an expensive meal. And so he walked over to them and sat down next to the woman.
"So, how much this meal cost?" John said in a slurred voice, barley able to keep his head off the table.
"Who are you and what do you want, you stupid drunk?" the man said.
"Please, just go away. I just want to eat my meal in peace." said the woman.
John stared at her strangely, then without giving it a second thought, grabbed a shrimp- like creature off of the man's plate and ate it. He spat it right back out.
"Yuck, you actually like that stuff? Tastes like a gardienia's diarrhea. What's in that stuff anyway?" he said in his usual drunken voice. The bouncer stepped over to the table.
"This man bothering you Ms. Lilian Jean?" the woman just nodded.
Before John had a chance to react, the bouncer picked him up and carried him to the door. When they got there, he threw him into a pile of trash in the alleyway behind the bar. John gave the man the "middle finger" sign.

When he got to his ship, he thought for a moment. Should I just go home tonight, or make one last run to New Tokyo before calling it a night? Those diamonds would fetch a Good price. He climbed into his ship and turned on the engines, and headed to the commodity dealer.

Don't see how anyone could get offended but OK, I changed it to Johnathan Faires. Is that better?

P.S. and yes, that last name is spelled correctly. And about the American sounding name, my character was born in Liberty but moved to Rheinland after the 80-Years War.

and one more thing, I know Sam Fisher works for a secret government agency called Third Echelon as a Splinter Cell trying to stop a terroist by the name Suhadi Sadono. I know all about Splinter Cell, I just tried that name to see if any one would notice.

Name: Enrico "Seluka" Starborn
Ship: stolen "T-sungo" kusari dragon
Location: sigma-19, between yanagi and chugoku jumphole
Faction: Blood dragons
Credits: 1.260 credits

Seluka entered the gaspocket clouds with his T-sungo, a few GMGs where also in the erea looking for a group off outcasts with escaped from them with a large ammount off cardamine. They told him to stay out off this region and take an other way toward the jumphole.

he asked if he may have an escort for this, but they denied, and flew into the gaspockets.

Seluka looked at his nav-map and rechange his waypoints, first he will fly to the west off his nav-map then north and fly along the gaspocket clouds to the jumphole to chukogu. this way was the savest for now, co'z you never know what an outcast may do... an he will never want to know that also.

the route was long and save, no outcasts all the time on the scanners. and seluka jumped to his homesystem.

in his homesystem where some other blood dragons with patrols the region between the jumpholes and kyoto base.
"this is blood dragons whiskey patrol squadron leader to blood dragons fighter, your on our scanners and clear to fly to the base" said one off the pilots off the patrol fighters.
"ok, i head inmediate to kyoto base" said seluka back and engaded the cruise engines to speed throught the astroids toward kyoto base.

in a few minits he was by kyoto base and asked for docking-procedure.
"this is seluka with T-gungo, requesting to dock" said seluka.
"seluka, your request to dock at dockingbay 3" said a person off the kyoto base.

i docked at bay 3 and walked to the person who hired me for this traderoute.
Seluka to him; "your artifacts are in my ship, their are also food and water inside the cargohold. take that also out off my ship."
he said back; "good, we needed the food and water also, and i will bring the artifacts myself to our research and see if we can do something with them... i will make your credits inmediate over into your account."

i walked to the bar and looked their if my credit account raised with the promised ammount off 12.500 credits, and that did.
my total credit account is now; 13.760 credits.

Hans walked through the bar in Yanagi Depot, his friend. Gatomi Sakari, was there as usual. Gatomi was a blood dragon, the only one of the few who dont despise junkers.

" I got the goods you neede from New Berlin System by the way" siad Hans while they were having a drink.

" thanks, you dont know how hard it is for us to obtain supplies"

" Well, ill be heading to the Gas Miner to meet another friend later,"

"Okay, I have to go now , see you in another few weeks then"

"Oaky" Gatomi walked off to the lauching bay and left with his dragon and goods

"Oaky, " said Hans to himself," i got a drone which i salvaged in the fields belonging to a dead Samura piliot, probably attacked by Cosairs, and now I have a contract to keep with the GMG"

" The goods are ready, dont keep the GMG waiting!" said the dealer to Hans.

" okay im off" Hans was off into space in the next moment, heading to the gas miner with cargo

Name: "Seluka"
Ship: stolen "T-sungo" kusari dragon
Location: Kyoto base
Faction: Blood dragons
Credits account: 13.760

Seluka asked the bartender if their is a good rumor arround, but he didn't had one for now... to bad... but he had a little mission for some, it's a patrol and attack mission on planet honshu. their will be also a squadron off gc flying along with the wing. the payment is 5.000 credits. seluka accepted the mission and walked after that to the weap-dealer.

seluka looked around by the weap-dealer if he has something nice for his "T-gungo"...
the class 3 shield needs some improvements, but the weaps also...
seluka toke the class 4 shield for 8010 and got 1225 back for the class 3 shield...

he looked now to my account and said; 6.975
that's not enought for a new weap on "T-gungo" and asked if he had some scrapped weaps, he had 2 old scramblers 1, with seluka may have for 2.000 each.
he accepted, but he was aware that the old scramblers refire isn't that good anymore... only 3.50 instead off 4.00, but speed, damage and range are still the same.
