Oooh, sounds nice. I think I might be able to join. Depending. ^_^ Can I?
I like the space themes, since most of my characters are usually aliens/or characters with some superpowers.

well totalitarian government it is then. which is good because that was kind of where i was going in my head.
now my question is how on earth do we do this? do we pick a side as was done in the first few SHRP's? or are we going to do the rotation of each person gets to bring some badies to the mix as was done in the last SHRP?
lets get the ground work laid and then post up our profiles.

Alright so all we gotta do now is post our characters, I'm gonna wait like one more day and then post mine but if someone else wants to go first then by all means go ahead lol. Its rather simple you tell your characters name, nickname, gender, age, height, weight, appearence, weapons, special skills, personality (or whether he/she is good or bad) and a little history that made them who they are now and gives us a glimpse of thier character. You can add special abilities like telekinesis or other descriptions if you feel the need and after everyone has posted thier characters me or Rikku will start us off in the opening scene and we can go from there. One other thing when you are posting your character you can order the info like this so each character bio will look similiar making it easy for us all to see who and what we're dealing with...
Name:
Nickname:
Gender:
Age:
Species:
Height:
Weight:
Appearence: (or you can do Hair:, Clothes:, ectra..)
Weapons:
Special Skills:
Personality:
History: (such as susie came from the planet bla blablah and she had a happy childhood until she stumbled across the glowing gem that gave her her powers or showed her, her destiny lol) 
Thats about all there is too it I think we can each have a maximum of two characters but Rikku will have to second that.

Holy, Life really got buisy.
any way I went a way for a couple of days and Just got caught up.
I second the two charector limit, how ever i feel this should be more a guid line then a rule, if someone whould really like to have more then two charetors and has a good excuse for having more then two charectors then the request can be made and as a colective we can vote yeah or ney for the lifting of the limet.
Just to make things clear we have
the setting of our RPG is a univer run by the Parnesians (who or what they are I don't know i just needed a name).
under this rule we have two sides. a rebelion, and the Parnesian secrit service trying to crack down on the rebelion. or does resistence sound better? let you vote be known
Rules(Okay I am basing this off of what has gone on in other rpgs that i have been in but lets keep this a democracy here if you disagree or don't like something let it be known and things can change):
1. no God playing charectors have vonerablities don't be so inlove with your charectors that you find a loop hole around them ever getting hurt.
2. this is turn based. wail the order is not set in stone be polit to other players and give people a chance to react to what is happening before moving on.
3. I say that we should all try to show up on the thread atleast once a week. everyones lives get buisy, (I have been gone for a wail now and I do apoligies.) show up once a week to let us know that you are still around. this way we can have a designated time frame if the rpg comes to a halt becasue we are waiting for someone. and it will hopefully help the game continue.
4. if things get too tough and some one can't stay please let us know. don't just drop off the face of the planet it is a little rude.
5. two charector limit which can be lifted if the excuse is deemed good enough.
if this is acceptable then lets post our charector profiles and get it on.

Aye sounds good to me Rikku lol and yeah life did get really
busy for me as well, oh well I suppose I should get this over
with lol. By the way I forgot to mention in the character bios
that you need to list your characters weakness with its strength
as well sorry lol. Resistence sounds better Rikku and as for the ruling race
name...welll howsa bout Vermillians? That sound reptillian and starcrossed lol,
just my opinion though. Pernesian is actually a really good name for an
alien race Rikku I really like it.
Name: Aiden
Nickname: Addy
Species: Bysen (actually an Anglo-Saxon word that means unique lol)
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Height: 6ft 7''
Weight: 240
Hair: Resembles tree branches in texture and look and is shoulder length.
The rough brown tendrils if you will twine around each other and are always
neatly in place, flat and smooth against his head with a slight inward curl at the end.
The ends are sharp and pointed but hidden in the curl so that if you ran your
hand down his hair it would feel solid like bark but smooth and cool to the touch
and slightly fuzzy.
Eyes: Deep forest green with flecks of blackness floating in them for the pupils,
he has multiple pupils in each eye and can look at more than one thing at the
same time, there is no white around the green iris the iris is the whole eye.
Ears: His ears are underneath his hair like all Bysen's are and no one really
know what their ears look like, rumor has it though that they resemble the
petals of a rose and it is well known that Bysen can hear at every wavelength.
Nose: His nose is the only human looking feature on his face although the faint
light and dark brown strips running across it to fade out at his cheeks are said
to tell his age. Therefore he would probably have 27 faint lines like wood grain
going horizontal one on top of the other up to his eyes. But who would want to
stand face to face to a Bysen just to count nose lines?
Mouth: This too slightly resembles a human's mouth until it opens, his tongue
is black and then like a thorn and his teeth are savagely needlelike and his mouth
is so full of them that they resemble thin straight fishing hooks. For all that his
face is elfish like and his mouth normal when closed and smiling and his skin is
not hard like you would think but with a grippy rubberlike consistency.
Appearance: His skin is dark bronze and the rest of his body is shaped like
a well proportioned human male with not to large yet still notable biceps
and his hands are slender and gracefull if you overlook the wicked looking
black talons overshadowing each finger of which he has six on each hand.
He usually wears black cargo pants that hug his build instead of disguise it
and black boots made out of tree sap from his home world, soft yet firm with
excellent grip and so comftorable you could almost swear you were walking
on air in them. His shirt is a dark green tank top that matches his eyes and
shows off his powerful arms. He has a silver chain hanging around his neck
that has a small harmless looking acorn hanging from it. No one knows what
it means or what it holds but the rumors surrounding the keepsake are many
and farspread. Some say it is a seed that can be planted on another world and
it will slowly eat all the local vegetation and replace it with the vegatation on
his own homeworld thereby reshaping for Bysen use. Others say that it holds
a phsychic connection to his homeworld and with it he can draw on the
strength and healing powers of certain plants. Still others say it is a weapon
rarely used a mystical mind warping amulet or poisen. And finally the widest
spread rumor of all is it holds a tamed Zygar inside that can be unleashed
when needed, the Zygar is a small branchlike spider as big as a human's
head that can fold itself up and fit in tiny spaces and its venom can
paralyze and cause hallucinations. It is so dangerous on his homeworld
because it can blend into the surrounding shrubbery and the web it spins
is air itself.
Weapons: Fastened in sheaths hung on belts crisscrossing his chest and
going over his shoulder in the front are two dirks with wooden handles
and blades made out of a star green claw of the reknowned dragon like
creature on his homeworld, the claws are said to cut through any tree,
metal and when nicked spurt a acidic compound that eats away all flesh.
At the lowest part of his belt by his hip is a whip coiled tightly and made
out of the strongest vines found on Byre(his home planet) The whole vine
is an extended thorn with sharp ridges and glistening hooks, it is pure
ebony with veins of dark green venom pulsing through it. The venom
festers any wound inflicted and causes extra pain. As if this wasn't
enough on his back are two slender swords made out of the only rock on
his home planet and their paper thin blades glow a misty purple. These
blades can move faster than the wind but as you may have guessed are
not good at hacking at rocks and trees, they are fragile yet deadly.
The sparks they throw off when clashing with other swords not made
out of the same rock as them hover around the blades increasing their
beauty and dazzling brightness as well as dangerous sharpness. If enough of
the sparks gather he can launch a special attack, but you will have to wait
until you see him in action to see what it is.
Special Skills: Aiden can see in multiple directions at once as I've said
before, he is somewhat connected to his weapons and can find them if
they are lost like a bloodhound on a scent. He is an excellent marksman
and sword wielder. Whenever a person meets his gaze they are swept
by calmness and serenity.
Weaknesses: Aiden's name means fiery one and he is unique
among his people for his intense emotions and drive for justice.
More than once his hard-headed single-mindedness has gotten
him in trouble and for the first time in a century his largely solitary
race has allowed him to try his luck on the unknown of space.
So he is a little behind the times and completely disinterested
in politics of any kind. He is also a trusting person as the harsh
cruelity of the universe hasn't gotten to him yet. He is terrified
of fire and memerized by water of any kind feeling a deep
primal need to conserve it and purify any he comes across.
He can adapt to many different enviroments and atmospheres
but his complexion changes with each one and his eyes turn
paler the farther the air is from his home worlds and he is slightly
weaker.
Personality: Aiden is what his name means, fiery and passionate
for what he considers right and wrong and the ideals he brought
with him from home. He carries the aura of peace, serenity and
calmness in his being and it shines through his eyes and he finds
comfort in familiar things. He is trusting and sometimes can be
gullible but he would never willingly cause another pain if he
could prevent it even though he has been trained from childbirth
on how to hunt and fight rival tribes. Unlike most of his race he
carries the wildness of the powerful hurricanes that devastate his
homeworld inside him. (I am speaking figuratively he can not unleash
the wind in an attack, he simply smells like rain and windswept
jungle and the chaotic power of the wild storms is evident in the way
he moves and attacks, unpredictable and as fast as lightning, his sword
skill taking the strength and unstopable fury of the wind and his marksmanship
unnerring)
History: For his entire childhood he was raised to hunt and be
hunted and master and adapt to the elements around him which
he did with surpising rapidity and quickness of whit. Unfortunatly
something inside him would not allow him to be at peace in the
deep jungles of his home like the others of his kind so he got
permission from his elders after he had made a name for himself
by bringing home the biggest star clawed dragon creature (Iryan
is what they are called actually) to venture out into space and
discover the adventure his restless soul longed for.
lol and I am so only going to have one character there is no need
to make another one when he is just so extremely awesome giggle.

Okay Resitance it is.
charactor one:
name: Thea Job.(pronounced like the book of the bible)
Nickname: none
species: Human, aproximitly half heavy worlder.
Gender: Female
age: 24
Highth: 5' 8"
weight: 125
apreince: Thea has Long purple hair which she wears long and in a brade. her eyes are emerald green. she wears baggy cargo pants, a black baby t with the word L33T in big bright blue leters, a bright green trench coat, and orange high top shoes. her body type is Muscular although she definetly is the kind of girl who enjoys a nice hamburger every now and then.
weaponds: Thea wears a retractable blade that is made from a stainless meatel that is near unbreakable, and sharpends itself as it is retracted. she also wears gloves that have spikes on the knuckles. she also is not agaisnt picking up a gun and using it.
Special skills: she is an experienced fighter. because she is about half heavey worlder, which is a group of Humans who altered their DNA so they could live and work better on the high gravitational pull of the astiorieds they mined, her sistems all work faster and better in the low gravity that she now lives in. this enables her to Jump higher, run faster, hold her breath longer and so on.
weakness: she may have some Genetic alterations but she is still human. her skin is not bulit proof, nor is she faster then a speeding bullit. she has limitations, they are just a little lower then the average human. also because she is a heavy worlder thought her imune system is higher then average, if she contracts a deadly desease she would die from it faster. mostly this has to do with a deases that is spread through the blood or other body fluids.
Personality: quick to smile, and make a joke. she always belives the best about people, and will often take a job more for the fun of it then how much it pays.
history: Thea was the daughter of the greatest theif that every lived. however this made him the most wanted on many lists. one day when she and her brother came home they foudn their parents dead and their house burning. they took thier father's ship, which thea had been flying for several years, and went out on thier own. Thea always was surching for the person who had sold her dad out. and one day she discovered that it was her own brother. she left him and took her father's ship, the Sheol, an Orphia class fraitter serial number B31O41J. sence then she has been staying just out of her brother's reach and taking up smuggling jobs, some legal other not so legal.
Charector 2
Name: Thom Job.
Nick name: none
Spesis: human half heavy worlder
gender: male
age: 28
Ht: 7'
wt: 175
apperence: blue black hair short, Green eyes. has the look of a boxer. wears vests so that his multiple tatoos on his arms can be seen. Solid.
weapons: he is a simple person, give him a gun or he'll fight in out with his hands and a set of brass knuckles
skills: experienced fighter, much the same as his sister
weekness: same as his sister, but also enjoys a little too much boze and women.
Personality: like s to be incharge. can understand people very well. and stoic.
history: when thea left with the ship Thom was really mad. he couldn't fly the thing but that did not matter. the truth was he needed his sister. Now he as to work for someone else. continued to work inthe smuggling buisness but he doesn't own his own ship. he also has taken up some freelance assasinship.

Hi! Is this still going on? Haven't been able to check in because of some family trouble back home. The holidays were rough, but I'm back on my own again, so things are shuffling back into place. If the RP is still happening, here's my chari-prof.
Name: Delyara
Nickname: Yari
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Species: Loren (They are of human appearance, but can grow blades from any part of their body)
Height: 5 feet, 4 inches
Weight: 117
Appearance: As noted above, of human appearance in physical form. Hair is soot black, in a short pixie cut, olive-tan skin color, her eyes are gray, she has a tiny mouth with a beauty mark just above the left corner, three diamond studs in her left ear and none in her right, she wears a matching diamond pendant hidden underneath her tank top. There is a tiny white scar that runs from her left eye to her nose. Wears skinny black pants tucked into knee-high dark brown boots, a form-fitting gray tank top under a gray silk blouse. Carries a black cloak that her mother gave her before she dies. It's a little big and makes her look even smaller when she's dwarfed in it.
Weapons: Blades of all kinds, but usually only uses up to two at a time, or mixed, e.g. one long blade, one knife, etc.
Special Skills: Can break glass with high-pitched note and effectively travel at night because of her 'sonar'. Because she is Loren, they have the ability to grow blades from any part of their body. Lengths, strengths and colors are varied, depending on how much energy the Loren has and how upset they are. Generally slow to anger, extreme bursts of temper result in sprouting blades. The blades can be broken off and used for all manners of things, but when melted down by fire, release a toxic gas. Loren blood has high healing properties, so to a degree she can somewhat heal herself, but not all the way to 100%
Weaknesses: Because of her blade-growing ability, she must eat a great deal to keep up with her high metabolisim, even if she does not grow blades for some time, she is usually snacking on something or the other. Yari is vulnerable after growing a blade, or when one is broken off of her before she can cut the 'life force' channeling into it. If she does not eat, she becomes weak and her skin turns nearly white. She is very light and can be thrown easily. Her strength comes in short bursts, so she cannot keep up a 'fight' for very long, maybe five minutes max, or eight, on a full stomach. This sometimes causes her to 'fight dirty' forgoing all matters of honor and loyalty to assure that she will be the victor in order to continue living.
Personality: Very quiet, likes to be alone, generally does as she is told unless she is too tired or hungry. Can mingle in a large crowd or party, if absolutely necessary, but will probably be silent the remainder of the night for it. She has short flares of temper according to her kind-see weaknesses above.
History: Daughter of a famous musician, she only uses her 'singing' power when lost at night or breaking out of a windowed cell. Her father was drafted after her second birthday and died in action, her mother died seven years before and left her in charge of her music teacher. The music teacher, jealous of her student's success, tried to get rid of Yari. Running away at 12 years old, she took her mother's cloak and stowed away on the first ship heading out and away. Her mother always kept the fact that she was Loren, a secret and so Yari does the same with hers. She just wants to get away from everything and to find somewhere to call home.
let me know if I should add anything else to her prof.

Not bad scarlet. this Yari sounds like quite a charector. Is she for or against the resistance? or is she just one more person trying to make a living.
I think i will wait for Novi to show up and then i will write an opening post.

a predator sosiety would be kind of cool. i was thinking about starting at a space station. just a out of the way place between planets and systems. as for the pernesians, I was thinking somekind of reptilian maybe. or instead of a raise it could be the name of a movment named after the plainet where it origenated there for becoming a group of different raise, then put them in the armor of the predators. that could work.
any way i will post the opening tomarrow morning and give a discription of the place. also do we want to have someone cotroll these badies, or take turns or what?

That is an incredibly smart idea Rikku this is the perfect place to comment on the story and it cuts down on the chat that usually fills up a roleplay. I like the armor idea that is cool and I think if someone has an idea for what they want the Pernesians to do then they can post it here and we can give them control otherwise it could be turn based. Also if someone doesn't want to control the badguys they can say so here to.

we are going to creat a new role play. Novelist has requested something is space ( though ti think this is just because her carectors are aliens) so I am ready to oblige her. here are my thoughts: 
. Go ahead and put in the opening post Rikku, I might not respond today but I will tomarow at the latest. We should figure out what the Pernesians are and whether or not we will start on a planet ruled by them, undiscovered, a resistence base, smuggler base, or secretely nuetral. LOL personally I would LOVE to make them look like predator, wouldn't that be cool? Now there is a sentient scary race you can feel uncomftorable under.
