Furry Fantasy RP

Got an inkling to get back into starting a new RP, this time working on polls to see if I can hit the sweet spot in interests. We can work on stories and characters in further discussions.

Space

Some of those ideas could be combined. Like for example Bravestar combines several of the ideas, Outer Space, and Wild west, also it had some native american characters & elements. So one can combine ideas/settings.

Screw it! let's just combine them all into one! Kind of like in the game Red Steel 2, where they combined the Old West with Feudel Japan.

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #4 on:** August 30, 2012, 05:43:11 AM

At this time, there are two votes cast overall, one for sci-fi and the other for Japanese. So we can make an attempt at combining the two.

Here's my scheme: The focus is on an colonial armada of ships as they leave a dying world to find a new paradise. The armada is broken down into semi-independent fleets led by various Clans. Though they travel together on a mutual goal of finding a new home, some of these clans are prone to let past vendettas get out of control, and fights between Clans often erupt among the fleets. An attempt to stem the inner fighting leads to the formation of the Imperial Union, a peacemaker fleet led by an elected council rather than a Clan family. Though most of the Clans see this as a benefit to settle disputes without combat, others see it as an eyesore and even a potential threat in the making. Among the worries is that the Union accepts anyone who does not fit into any of the Clans, and anyone who leaves or defects the Clans, and the Union's numbers have increased significantly.

What else does Japanese culture fit into the picture? The very way of life, and samurai space warriors! Besides each fleet having a band of space fighters, the samurai (and ninja) class can be equipped with space suits so they can fight in space, and they would be trained to take on fighters as well as other samurai.

That's all I've got for now.

Sounds good

Kor · **Reply #6 on:** August 30, 2012, 09:58:38 PM

That sounds like an interesting idea.

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #7 on:** August 31, 2012, 03:36:45 AM

And there will be few rules in terms of technology, just so that we don't have one Clan godmodding the others. But other than that, the ships, the weapons, and other stuff of your Clans are still yours to do with unlimited possibilities. All I have to do for the story is the back-story and the Imperial Union. I'll be glad to help out with any questions or issues, since sometimes everything in my head is not often let out...

Belmont2500 · **Reply #8 on:** September 07, 2012, 08:44:22 PM

Sounds good, you can count me in.

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #9 on:** September 08, 2012, 11:26:23 PM

OK then. I'll need time to put the Imperial Union together and the big back-story. You guys can start putting together the name of your Clan, the kinds of ships you can have in your armadas, like carriers, battleships, cruisers, etc, and their weapons. Just keep it between 7 to 20 large ships total, and not all big battleships and such.

As for characters, anyone is free to have a character or two in the Imperial Union, as Clan representatives or otherwise. If you want to have a character from someone else's Clan, be sure to ask them first.

EDIT: You can up your fleet of large ships up to 30 instead of 20, including hospital ships, maintenance & manufacturing, supply, science, & civilian transport. Our fleets are basically self-sufficient, and only need to resupply not so often for food, water, & fuel.

Could you create a sheet? It helps so we know what to include

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #11 on:** September 10, 2012, 12:42:40 AM

I'm almost done with one. It should be ready in a day or two.

I've been sleep-deprived all week and weekend because one of my dogs thought she could leave my yard anytime she wants, and everyday I put up new barriers to cover escape routes she used, but she always finds another way out. If this keeps up tomorrow, then I'm going to have to give her up to the local shelter, because I'm sick and tired of having to be sick and tired with giving up so much time having to watch this stupid dog and clean up after her messes. I gave up a day in my beginning career because she and my other dog escaped and refused to return when I called.

Enough of this bleeding heart. I'll have the sheet done soon.

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #12 on:** September 11, 2012, 02:49:22 AM

Here's a sheet of the factions and the character bios. It'll still be a while before I get the Imperial Union together. I'm still hoping for a good night's sleep.

Clan Name
Governing Party/Family/Ruler/Warlord/etc
Common Species
Main Armada (flagship, name needed; number of each type of ship, no names needed)
Starfighter Fleet (smaller combat ships, each type if needed)
Social Classes (ruling party, diplomats, warriors, workers, etc)
Brief Summary

Name
Age (human-length years are fine)
Species
Gender
Occupation
Affiliation (Union or whichever Clans)
Common Transport (where your characters live on, warship, starfighter, etc)
Weapons (swords, blasters, battle suits, etc)
Brief Description
Personality
Brief Bio

Belmont2500 · **Reply #13 on:** September 11, 2012, 08:44:57 PM

Clan: Indagatrix
Rulers: Alcaeus Magnus and Adela Ductor
Common Species: Wolves, Foxes, Jackals, Coyotes, Lynx and Swans.
Main Armada: Lagatia(flagship, 1), 15 warships, 9 medical ships, 8 transports, 2 research ships.
Starfighter Fleet: X-330 Aeon(Balanced, all around fighter), B-530 Pulse(Bomber), U-862 Shuttle(Landing craft), Y-220 Talon(Light, agile fighter).
Social Classes: Magnus Ductor(ruling party), Sanetus(Diplomats), Defenders(Military, includeds Warriors, Infultrators, Snipers, Pilots), I.W.F.(Work force).

Brief Summery: The Indagatrix clan, led by the wolves Alcaeus Magnus and Adela Ductor, was one of many clans to be part of a Coloniel fleet on a journey to find a new world after theirs had parished. However, when the fleet began to break into clans, the Indagatrix was the 4th to seperate from the fleet. Mostly for the same reason others did, but mostly because Alcaeus Magnus believed that the council made some bad decisions and figured that it would be best to make their own decisions. One defining trait of this clan is that every warrior is also a very skilled pilot.

Characters:

Name: Takeo
Age: 20
Species: Coyote
Gender: Male
Occupation: Warrior, pilot
Affilation: Indagatrix clan
Common Transport: X-330 Aeon 'Fulcan'
Weapons: Twin katanas and a rapid fire blaster, Vigilante battlesuit.

Brief Description: When Takeo was only 3, he was taken in by Adela Ductor after she and Alcaeus found him trapped on an abandoned spacecraft. His true origins are unknown. Takeo is young, playful and rather outgoing, but when in battle, he is a fearsome warrior, wielding twin plasma katanas and other weapons.

(I think I summed up the bio and personality in this description and in the next.)

Name: Kiyomi
Age: 19
Species: Wolfess
Gender: Female
Occupation: Warrior, pilot, princess(she is the daughter of Alcaeus and Adela after all)
Affilation: Indagatrix clan
Common transport: X-330 Aeon 'Huntress'
Weapons: Claws, twin blaster SMGs, Kestrel battlesuit

Brief Description: Kiyomi is the first-born child of Alcaeus and Adela, she is a strong-willed, tomboyish but good-natured wolfess. She was trained in many fighting styles and is a force to be reckoned with in a fight. For the most part, though, her life has been fairly average aside from the occasional fight or clan meeting.

Trust me, you don't want to do that. If she's still giving you trouble, try obedience school or other methods. Just thought I'd give you some advice.

I'm not one for making up clan things, so I tried my best...

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #16 on:** September 12, 2012, 02:16:29 AM

Very good. The only things that needs to be tweaked for both your Clans is to scale down your armada to 30 ships or less, and to describe different types of warships. Other than that, great job! I'll post my stuff here in a little bit.

Imperial Union
Clan Name: The Imperial Union AKA the Union
Governing Party: 7-member Security Council, Senate of the Clans
Common Species: Too various to define
Main Armada: Union Starship (USS) Thaos (twin-hulled carrier flagship), 2 Escort Carriers, 4 Cruisers, 5 Destroyers, 5 Frigates, 2 Hospital Ships, 1 Maintenance Ship, 2 Supply Ships, 1 Science Ship, 2 Passenger Ships

Starfighter Fleet: Variant 4-2-X Fighters, Variant 1-6-B Heavy Fighters/Fighter-Bombers

Social Classes: Security Council, Senate of the Clans, Star Fleet (ship crew & starfighter pilots), working class, refugees

Brief Summary: First organized to bring peace to the Clans, the Imperial Union had settled disputes without war. But things began to change as the Union began to mobilize its own fleet for its own protection, and granted homage for those who left, or escaped, the Clans. The Union still remains a center for mutual peace, but even it could be deemed a threat to other Clans.

Name: Iidomo Katsuke
Age: 27
Species: Honshu Wolf
Gender: Male
Occupation: Starship Cruiser Captain; former samurai
Affiliation: Imperial Union
Common Transport: USS Aios Star Cruiser
Weapons: Ion crystal-bladed katana
Brief Description: Gray fur, ice blue eyes, 5’10”
Personality: Honorable, soft-spoken, noble
Brief Bio: Katsuke was one of the middle sons of the Iidomo Clan ruler, before defecting to the Union because of reasons not yet revealed. Since then, many of the Iidomo, even his family, see him as a traitor.

Name: Jon Veras
Age: 26
Species: Coyote
Gender: Male
Occupation: Starship Destroyer Captain
Affiliation: Imperial Union
Common Transport: USS Olympis Star Destroyer
Weapons: Particle blaster
Brief Description: Brown fur w/ lighter underside, yellow eyes, 5’8”
Personality: Cunning, quick-thinking, tactician
Brief Bio: Jon was born a member of the Union, and knows only of the Clans through talks around the Union, mostly non-enlightening comments. But, through working with a former heir of one of the Clans, Jon knows a bit more about Clan way of life with a bit more respect.

Iidomo Clan
Clan Name: Iidomo Clan
Governing Rulers: Iidomo Umo & Iidomo Kunomaki
Common Species: Honshu & Hokkaido wolves, Kai Ken, Shiba Inu & Akita Inu dogs
Main Armada: Imperial Starship (ISS) Musashi (battleship flagship), 2 Escort Carriers, 3 Cruisers, 6 Destroyers, 5 Frigates, 1 Hospital Ship, 1 Maintenance Ship, 1 Supply Ship, 1 Passenger Ship

Starfighter Fleet: Satsuma-class Fighters, Kamikaze-class Fighter-Bombers, Sukikaze-class Bombers, Isshun-class Scouts

Social Classes: Iidomo royal family, Imperial Consorts & Delegates, Star Fleet (Ship Commanders, Samurai, Pilots, Ship Crew, Ninjas), Working Class

Brief Summary: The Clan is a warrior society, and was one to naturally oppose the stance of the Imperial Union in Clan matters, and thinks very lowly of those who reside in the Union. The Clan prefers conflict against any potential threat, and will gladly fight to the finish if the need be. Their strife against the Union is even greater now, after it is known that one of the ruler’s sons ran off and became a ship commander of the Union.

Name: Kyatsu Rotegu
Age: 27
Species: Hokkaido Wolf
Gender: Male
Occupation: Samurai

Brief Description: Dark gray fur w/ lighter underside, orange eyes, 5’9”
Personality: Prideful, strongly loyal to the Clan, contempt towards Katsuke
Brief Bio: Rotegu was a former childhood friend of Katsuke, until they grew up and apart. Their friendship was finally ended when Katsuke defected to the Union, and Rotegu since regards him as his greatest enemy.

Brief Bio: Kira has been rivals with Katsuke since childhood. But in his older years, he began to look to Katsuke with silent respect. When Katsuke defected, Kira could only speculate a reasonable purpose for his actions, and quietly wishes him luck in the future.
