Beorhun Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 Deep in the farthest reaches of the frozen planet of Territh lay the ancient city of Zethi, where it was said the beginnings of the universe lay. There were many legends passed down a thousand generations about what lay within the ruins, from treasure to a catacomb of the undead to the secret to the entire universe... Snow fell onto the ruins, the giant city that lay in the middle of the vaste forest. A ship dropped into the atmosphere, into the near-sunless planet of Territh. The twin suns were distant, and barely cast any light onto this forgotten planet. The occupants of the ship looked down on the ruins, amazed by the scope of the city. The city was built on levels, too many to count. A giant tower was in the middle, surrounded by a ghost of a shield. How old could this city be? ---Transmition--- An automated voice came in over the comm. system of the ship. It said: [FONT=System]"You are approaching the City of Zethi without proper authorization, turn back or you will be fired on." [/FONT] The ship continued on, expecting another message from the automated defense system. Nothing came up, something had silenced it. The ship landed on the outskirts of the city. The head tower loomed in front of it, and beyond that, the entirety of the gossamer city. The streets were frozen in time, everything was rusted and ancient, older than anything else in the universe. The streets were clean of snow, but were covered in ice. The leader of the expedition stepped out and surveyed the entire city. This place was a death trap waiting to spring. Another transmission came in over the comm. "Well, then, you've landed, but I'm afraid you're a bit...too late. You see, you aren't alone here." Someone else was in the ruins? What did they intend to do? The tower was far from them, but they couldn't have found a suitable landing spot anywhere else in the entire city. The captain ran over to the comm. "State your name!" Static. Nothing but static. The captain walked out into the cold, empty city, and looked at the tower. That was their destination, but they had a long way to go to get there... Sign-ups There is a group of people who landed in the ruins in the ship that was mentioned above. Here's the sign up: Name: Age: Appearance: Specialty: (Demolitions, sniping, close combat, whatever.) Weapon: Secondary Weapon: Personality: My character will be the captain, not that it really matters, in the long run: Name: Lance Crixon Age: 32 Appearance: Lance looks surprisingly young for his age, he wears a blue shirt with a dark blue vest. He has an attachment on his left arm with a small blaster on it, and a motion detector. His eyes are a dark green, and his eyes are prodomantly in a sort of half-closed position. He wears dark brown boots and black pants. His hair is a slightly graying chesnut color. Specialty: Tactics Weapon: Plasma Rifle Secondary Weapon: Arm-Mounted blaster. Personality: Lance is kind of...crazy. He is a brilliant tactician, but he can seem rash and incompetent at times. He is competitive about the smallest things, and does not take failure lightly. I know sci-fi RPs don't do well, but I'm going to go ahead and try with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
