Been hyping this up for a while now and with more and more plots popping up now seems as good a time as any to officially start planning!
The Strays is a mech based (Think Battletech/Mechwarrior style mecha, Not Gundam) plot based around the sectors most incompetent mercenaries; The Strays and their subsequent mech pilots the Terror Wolves of Freehold. This loose assorted gaggle of mutants and freespacers are joined together by the common cause of The Mad Mutant herself and her subsequent desire for adventure, fun, freedom, and fame!
Join these pilots and their at-best forklift certificiation course training as they pilot massive warmachines no half-illiterate and incompetent loner should be trusted with!
The plot
The plot will follow a team of mech pilots as they encounter various scenarios throughout the sector. Threads will be short SPs with occasional JPS and quick into the action!
The tone of the RP, however, will be serious encounters through the lens of often unserious or even satirical humor and nonsensical situations to reflect the unprofessional and undisciplined characters involved as they fight the same kind of serious situations and encounters as any serious plot but from the perspective of more down to earth individuals without superpowers, super soldier bodies, military training, etc.
The plot will take place in the indipendent and other RP forum and will be a 2 for sexual content, a three for violence and three for languadge rating. Anything raunchy can take place in JPs and the most you will see is likely some crazy naked mutant running through the halls of one of the factories of freehold

Characters are preferred to be of the Mutants species primarily to add some actual mutants to the sector that arent played by me! While some like Freespacers are also acceptable. Freehold and the various weapons and mechs of Shastas world are often very radioactive and any Nepleslians or other species will either become mutants themselves over time or go rather painfully.
Characters in The Strays are not professionals. They arent trained soldiers or even very contributing members of society but often average joes seeking adventure, pay, and fame alongside the mad mutant.
Being that these are mech pilots inside mechs there arent any specific roles that need to be filled. Such things are for military units and cohesive squads!

Mechs
I have made SO DAMN MANY mechs
lately that players have a wide variety to choose from. Most mechs have weapons by default but there is a good long List of weapons that can be interchanged out depending on what mech is capable of fielding what! And im likely to keep making mechs as time goes on. Im more than willing to make the models if people want to make their own mechs!
Players can also make their own mechs if they so desire in the future or customize/make their own variant of their favorite mech for their character. At the start characters will get their pick of any of the light mechs on the mech or upcomming (just articles that havent been put into the NTSE yet) list on the corp page and can after each thread decide if they want to stick with their mech next thread or play a medium mech. Heavy mechs there will likely only be one at any one time for balance reasons~
There will be occasionally new mechs to keep things fresh and interesting since I like making them so much!
