One final chance: An FTL-RP

[SciGuy303]

Arkangel was busy practicing assassination methods in his station when the AI told the crew to arm themselves when they reach a distress beacon. "I don't need a laser pistol," the acclaimed assassin spoke. "I have these," he said, forming his arms into sharp dagger-like shapes. "This will do." With that, he waited in his station when he realized something.

"Quintet, a question. When we are on whatever is in that distress beacon, the ship will have to remain docked, yes? What I was worried about was the possibility of others invading our cruiser while we are not present. The chance is slim, but it happened to me before. Do you think it will be a problem?"

"Also," he spoke this time to the entire crew, "when we hit a store can we please buy a teleporter? It isn't needed, but the prospect of invading other ships seems quite attractive, especially with our crew."

"Hm. The answer is yes, we will remained docks, but no, nothing will board this ship while you're gone that puts you in any danger. I've been around war a lot longer than you have and trust me, I know I thing or two about how to make someone die very quickly. We could get a teleporter, but I'll need some time to install it and its programming on the ship, and some weird radiation's going to be a side effect. You're going to have to keep yourself busy. And trust me, I don't care what we can or can't afford, I know how to make things... happen."
The ship pulled up on an empty station. The life signatures are positive, but the station seems dead, with no power, its weapons dead and dull and its hull torn and dented from a very violent raid. A quick scan reveals the signs of a massacre. Whatever was in this station was very powerful and very protected... but apparently not nearly enough.
"I'm sending over an away team for that. Tabitha will scout the station quickly, and Arkangel will investigate oddities and take any useful remains."

Tabitha grabbed a laser pistol. It wasn't her speciality to be fighting in close quarters - she preferred more of a distance between herself and her mark... and the mark hopefully being a docile animal that could be served up into a tasty meal.
She checked the sensors for anything useful as she brought the ship around the station. Although the operator in the Sensor Room probably could have picked up more.

"Holy crap... looks like the Rebels have torn through the facility" Tabitha said as she spotted a drifting corpse in a tattered orange uniform. "Or maybe it was a Rebel facility..." she added as a corpse drifted past that in a tattered blue uniform. That one was wielding a laser rifle. "Hey Arkangel, when you get down there, can you scavenge some of the guns? Maybe even override the ID codes?" she asked.

The station seemed to have been in a fight. There was a body floating outside with a rifle still in its grip. Kr watched through the view port for only a few seconds more before starting to prepare to board the stations. "The few life signs still on there are probably survivors. Let's hope they're not insane." he said through the comm. "I hope we get to fight someone though."

meanwhile, Dragon was still in his quarters.
'while you may think this 'Coalition' is no matter to be afraid of,' he wrote, 'the rebel remnants have found old Coalition tech that shouldn't have been disturbed. such as Disodium 5, the great anti-alien gas, and also the Antimatter rifles, enabling them to execute mass massacres across the galaxy. oh, and Tabitha, if you're reading this, tell my old battle group I said hi. you'll need them in the final battle.'
then he passed into the void.


pps plz refer to the book. you dont have to ask me hat it says. just make up something about the topic you're searching for and write it.

Arkangel carefully walked along the station. Floating corpses were everywhere; he salvaged some of their old weapons where he could, and managed to bypass the genetic firewall on two. "These will be useful," he said as he prepared to make one final sweep of the area. Just then, he noticed something. "Guys, you might want to look at this." He pointed towards a strange machine in front of them, about twice their height. "Looks like some sort of engine..." He saw a strange symbol on the side. "What does this say... wait! We need to bring this back to the ship and properly analyse it. I'm not certain, but I have a hunch that this is old technology from the 'federation coalition war' Dragon was talking about."

Tabitha moved the ship into a docking pattern with the station when Arkangel mentioned some large salvage being found.
On the other side of the station was a docking bay large enough for the cargo hold access doors (as opposed to the airlocks) to connect with it.
"Well if anyone would know about the Federation-Coalition War, it'd be Dragon, right? And our AI Captain?" she asked "I'm more interested in those rifles however. Back home I used to be quite a good shot with a sniper blaster. Customers appreciated the home-killed and cooked meal as opposed to the synthetic crap."

A large engine though... wonder if it could be hooked up to our ship... but maybe the Rebels already have acquired the technology?

[Chickengames]

Kr waited in the cargo hold for the ship to dock again with the hold doors connected. The large doors opened and he boarded the station to help Arkangel with the strange engine. "Where did you find it, Arkangel? I'm on the other side of the station." He started to walk down one hallway and noticed markings on the walls. Looks like blaster rifle fire, but nothing like I've seen before... Kr continued down the hall and found the weapons control room. An engi lay dead at the controls, the same rifle fire marks on the walls and the engi. He looked closer at the impact points. It looks like it's been eaten away, like acid or some reaction. "I found one dead engi. It looks like they were boarded. Arkangel, are there any signs of a struggle?"

I can join in about a week and I can be an engi if you want me to.

You should probably make a character sheet with the template on the first page. And when you do join, to make the story smooth, we need to know where to get you so your character doesn't just appear on board.
