[Plot] Bounty Hunts Restart

So I'm back and would like to return to making a plot for bounty hunters. I have yet to get a persistent place for it currently and currently working on it.

Essentially the plot is a series of small plots with an overarching storyline in a specific area rather than a plot ship.

The plan is that is starts on a Starliner hijacking and makes its way to the plot area.
 
Sounds like fun, can'T say I will join 100% but I might. Let's see if you get more players and some kind of plot lineout. Where will it take place for example? What kind of character you would like to see in the plot?
 
Yamatai would be willing to put a bounty on the guys that run Lazarus. Do you want to do a mission where they're eliminated?
 
The leaders of Lazarus? I assume you mean Lazarus Consortium which I assume is owned by OsakanOne.

Could I have a reason for the bounty like some background? I would have to also ask the creator if they accept the bounty or like to defer.

Also I have not roleplayed a Lorath before.
 
Bounty hunters are not mercenaries. They are legally sanctioned individuals with a license to bring in criminals from outside of a state's normal jurisdiction.
 
Depending on how long this takes to set up, my original plan is to start on a starliner or some kind of party ship to introduce a villain and (Re)Introduce the players. The hunters took a ride on this ship for whatever reason they have and find themselves in the middle of a hijack.

As for Lazrious, I am hesitant to forming setup on a plot that is basically between two factions that are not both owned by one person. To form a plot, I'd need a small amount of background so I can be brought up to speed, and possibly an agreement by both Wes and the affecting player.

Naturally bounty hunter players can choose to go or not, and I might try working the idea of a side plot that moves slower for hunters not on the main focus hunt.

Little too soon for that though as I bring myself back to speed but I like making big ideas.
 
Osaka is the one with the answers.

I'll ask her to post here.
 
Wait, wait, wait? Are we talking like Star Wars kind of bounty hunters? Who are often pretty much hired hitmans and operate within the law, only when they feel like it? Or you mean like USA bounty hunters who catch people who jump the bail?
 
The bounty hunters in Star Army tend to lean more towards the hitman type, historically.
 
Attention bounty hunters! I am about to start the roleplay! This is the gist of it so let me know if you like it or if it should be adjusted a little. I want the ba's to be the players first.

A certain business man is on a starliner heading to another planet to rest and relax for a few days, however someone has posted a bounty wanting him dead, and included a code that will pass the bounty hunters off as sky marshal types. The bounty is 2,000 KS or 1,000 DA.

While it seems to be an easy mission, a pirate ship links up with the Starliner and takes over the ship. While they are going to rob everyone, there is something they are looking for something on the ship.

Lots of shooting, hard choices, barrel rolls, and corny dialogue to be had!

I am also thinking of having subplots for Bounty hunters in the future when some choose not to participate in a major bounty, however will not receive full attention, or possibly could use a pad for it.
 
The Yugumo cluster has very little law enforcement on the planets, a lot of frontier traffic, a good number of pirates, the Lazarus corporation, smugglers between Lorath and Yamatai, black markets, criminal underworlds, corrupt government officials, and so on - and, to top it all off, Yamatai wouldn't be the only people posting bounties.

May I recommend possibly starting on Asura?
