Hurray generic sci-fi name. So I don't like how RPs are working here, to free for whoever is playing, to open allowing them to do whatever they want. I don't feel like there is enough storyteller involvement anymore. So what I'm proposing is a storyteller driven plot so that the people that are RP aren't just running through killing everything, they will need to think logically and not just do stuff that looks cool, but stuff that actually makes sense. Here are the rules,
1) You don't kill people, you'd say, for example, "I let go a barrage of bullets upon the enemies" and then I will PM you saying what happens, and you can continue working in what I PM'd you, however this will only apply to plot driven encounters, if you're just doing random stuff and want to RP by yourself, then you can just do whatever.
2) All the rest of the normal rules, no godmodding and such. However, one line posts are okay during combat. This is RP is for people that are on around when this post was posted and for four or more hours after, if you can't be on then, I recommend not being in the story.
STORY
In the years approaching 2050, Earth had become to overpopuleted to support life, and space colonies were the only option, our first target was the moon with colony Luna being the first one, followed by many other colonies. With the technology proven to work, they continued by putting colonies on Mars, the first being, to follow the trend, Ares, and as with the moon, more colonies sprouted up colonizing the entire planet.
The colonies were basically encapsulated cities, that were able to survive independently. Most of the colonies were farming colonies, there to grow crops for the other colonies, though some were basically cities. They had never fully come up with a way to compensate for the lower gravity on Mars and the Moon, so government run exercise programs are free to the general population, and yearly physicals are required to prevent bone and muscle decay.
This is where the story begins, these colonies.
So basically you can either start on Earth or in one of the colonies, I will get you where I need to through storytelling. I would like everyones first post to describe an average day in the persons life, and I will build from there.
