Star Army

Star ArmyⓇ is a landmark of forum roleplaying. Opened in 2002, Star Army is like an internet clubhouse for people who love roleplaying, art, and worldbuilding. Anyone 18 or older may join for free. New members are welcome! Use the "Register" button below.

Note: This is a play-by-post RPG site. If you're looking for the tabletop miniatures wargame "5150: Star Army" instead, see Two Hour Wargames.

  • If you were supposed to get an email from the forum but didn't (e.g. to verify your account for registration), email Wes at [email protected] or talk to me on Discord for help. Sometimes the server hits our limit of emails we can send per hour.
  • Get in our Discord chat! Discord.gg/stararmy
  • 📅 October and November 2023 are YE 45.8 in the RP.

Imperium of Nepleslia

A gritty empire full of industrious, heavily armed men of action. Some struggle to forge peace, while others live war as a way of life. Home to humans and cyborgs.

Kingdom of Neshaten

A Kingdom of isolationist vulpine humanoids with a past largely lost to the annuls of time, unknowingly following in the bloody footsteps of their forefathers. Terrorist factions try to overthrow the royal family in a series of civil wars, seemingly without end.

The Multiverse (Freeform RP)

This is a forum for in-character posts outside the realm of the canon Star Army roleplay. That means roleplay events that happen here don't count in the storyline and there are no restrictions on setting, timeline, or characters. Mix and match as you please. Have fun!

I'm glad you're here! You're basically one of the O.G.s at this point! Thanks for sticking with Star Army and let me know if there's anything you need.

Can't believe no one posted here on your profile before! First! I hope you're doing great and I appreciate you being on Star Army! Not long until you hit 20 years!
