About the adventure
Starship Ravenous Touchstones: Firefly, Mass Effect, Cowboy Bebop, Alien. (Old tech scifi) You're a scrappy bunch of star hunters, but you're tough as the duct tape holding your rattling can of a ship together. You've been stretching the good stuff for weeks: Actual, swear to god, duck meat. Brazed manna from heaven. But damn if it isn't running low and damned the whole crew if you can't get that oxygen recycler up and running again. You need a payday. Bad. Elevator pitch Want more story focused roleplay? Itching for your character arc to get started? Want more creative imput on the world and NPCS? Think you'd rather follow the drama than the dice? I run tandem storywriting style play-by-post games similar to online roleplay (à la: tumblr, shipping, fanfiction roleplay and rpnation rather than originating from D&D and other tabletop roleplay). This allows the player as much or little control over the world as desired. This style is best for proactive players, those trying their hand at writing fiction, gms wanting to experiment with co-gm dynamics, people with a story to craft and those willing to play/write as multiple characters when needed. Play by Post Play at your own pace. Pay at the start of the week. You are guaranteed one page of text per week minimum in posts and responses. Please be aware that the length of posts will be adaptive to the speed of your responses, any need for establishing description, dialogue and dramatic weight of scenes. Story Heavy, Rules Light I defer to the dramatic needs of the story instead of rolling dice. I will often ask what the most interesting result of risk, conflict or violence may be and discuss how players would like it to follow through. When they absolutely want to leave it to chance, I can discuss what level of risk they would like to have, lay out some possible results and roll some dice to inform a result based within the realism of the world created and player preference. This can be tweeked and customized to our hearts content. Functionality OOC (out of character) discussions occur over discord including notifying each other when we've finished a new post. Posts are made by adding text to a google doc. Guaranteed by the end of our campaign, you will have a complete piece of your own fiction (From multiple perspectives) to reread at your leasure as well as any lore and backstory created for the roleplay.

How will character creation work
Basic character creation in my games follow more of a character profile used for fiction writing rather than ttrpg stats and skills. Character creation can be as in depth as detailed backstories, history, socioeconomic details of family, etc or as short as a few answers to needed questions. This depends on the player's desire.
