9 people sailing through the black empty space, each looking in the Black and seeing something different... Until the day they all saw the anomaly that brought them to an alternate universe in an alternate galaxy. Pioneers from a universe where America and China conquered all. They then unified overpopulated Earth and sent out ships to start a new. From that universe our travelers where stolen away by a smidge of curiosity & an under expectation of the gravity of the anomalous worm hole they encountered. The ride was too much for their minds to maintain consciousness when they came to each had been separated from one another and Serenity was crippled.
The Captain, Malcolm Reynolds, found himself aboard Serenity in the infirmary but his home had been altered somehow and could no longer operate as it used to. He was in space, drifting, alone. The shuttles where gone, life support was functioning but as he kept checking systems he kept noticing strange changes. The guns where replaced, the medicines where replaced. The doors to the shuttles had been sealed and on the wings he could see position for gun mounts.
As he was re exploring the ship the halls of Serenity became rattled by the blaring sound of the proximity alarm. Mal rushed up the stairs and charged into the bridge to see a fairly large incoming ship. He reached over to the console to hail the ship but just before he pressed the button the comms chimed in. "Mal, its me" said a young voice through the faint static. "River? Where's Simon? Where's my crew?"
"Lost, but don't worry. They can be found again."
"That's just great. Can you tell me whats going on? Who's flying that thing your in?"
"I am, can't you tell. Captain, i intend to bring you up to speed but first i'd like to dock up." The ships clanked together and River activated the seals of the airlocks as she gracefully rose from the pilot's chair. She started walking back toward the hatch behind her then turned slightly back toward the comms console, "Come let me on Serenity." She glided out of view feeling the cold metal surface of the ship's floor against her bare feet. On Serenity it had let her feel the ship, feel its security and its mood. Finally she stepped once again on the ship she made her home. Mal went to talk to her but she stood just inside Serenity's doors, closed her eyes and took a breath of the warm, metallic, musty air.
"Are ya done sniffin'? We got some work to get done and you got some story telling to do."
"Yes. Well i guess i'll begin when i awoke. I was lying on a table on a ship i'd never seen before. Everything was colored lavender and it faded into white. The ship was full of several other sentients but i could not hear them, their thoughts... I could only feel them. Someone came in the room and i could barley see her it was like she was blocking her appearance with a white light. She came over to me and lifted a crown off my head made of a purple crystal. She told me that my mind had been successfully repaired though some of the memories in my head where locked away. She said that everyone except for you had been teleported in pods to human worlds. They kept me on their ship to help me and she mentioned something about you being anomalous, you don't show up on ship sensors."
"Huuuh."
"She apologized to me, and said it was their fault we where here. Much of our ship systems wheren't compatible with this universe so they removed them. They replaced a few but we will have to install and modify the ship systems to function here. That's why i'm here. To tow the ship to a nearby base where Kaylee & Wash are waiting for us." River darted off to begin her adaptations for the tow but Mal just stood there. He slowly walked from the door back up to the bridge to look out upon the stars. "A new Universe, with new worlds and none of your old enemies to look over your shoulder for... Let's keep flying"
Bio will be uploaded periodically and continue with certain journals once it has reached the present. So no one has to guess by the bio here is a behavior list so you know how i fly and we can mingle without personal hostilities.
Here's how most encounters go. I spot you, you say something to me but are too far away to do anything, I avoid you and persistantly run. you catch up, you CD me, I afterburn i maneauver you pew pew pew my shields drop. I"m at your mercy i like my ship intact I stop (//not so its easier for you to destroy my vessel), How may i help you? lets chat? STOP SHOOTING this is when i talk! STOP SHOOTING NOW SO I CAN TYPE This goes for all hostile encounters Gallians I would like to be captured by the navy rather then loose a ship. And maybe you can have a better procedure then "Get out" hey i never stay the women got ferrets in their armpits.
(Pirates)If i have an encounter that i find incredibly vile to the point it effects me personally i will register you in my profile as a Reaver and will treat you as such. You may enjoy or hate that but you will have a hard time communicating when all i hear are screams and roars pipe-in through your comm system.
If you ever try to take my crew you'll have it in. I will come for them. I WILL find them. And if i pray your stupid enough to let me find you with a gun in your hand for i swear to you I will kill you. My crew is MY FAMILY and no one disturbs my SERENITY!
//My story stems from the Firefly series (but the timeline is shortly after Objects in Space)
Some of the items aboard my ship are not open for the taking no matter what the circumstance(except the one that i just thought of that seems fun). The items are: 2 passangers, 5 space ship crew & 1 VIP.
The passangers are Shepard Book & River Tam. The VIP is Anara the Space Age Geisha The crew is everyone else. Everyone on the ship is open to using the communications and will respond to any transmissions directed specifically to them. However if you do not request privacy you may be subject to comment from a shipmate.
Now the only condition in which you may take a member of my crew is under a well thought, creative RP reason for abduction. Now granted your reasoning on capturing say, Anara can be thought up prety easily and is acceptable however the story must end with her safe on my ship or i'll just go out and buy another VIP and that's just not fun.
