Primitive Polygon
🎖️ Game Master
The giant serpents of Skorlemech answered to call of their Kuvexian masters, and engaged in a brutal war more than 100,000 light years away from home. It was the perfect chance for the newly uplifted dinosaurs to prove their worth, as more than just exotic pets and pit fighters. After all, what other chance of interstellar freedom did the obscure, primitive, uneducated, brutally powerful cryptids have?
Their raiding parties invaded isolated facilities, ambushed repair teams, gorged themselves on opulent supplies meant for some pathetic race of tiny feline monkey-clones. Life in the undergrowth of the Kikyo sector was good, for a time.
It didn't feel like a short leash.
But as the officer caste of the golden ones became more scarce, and even suspected disloyalty resulted in harsher punishments of whip, electro-collar, and cryo-imprisonment, the writing was on the wall. The propaganda was a lie. The command structure was disintegrating. And... as disposable assets, the alien auxiliaries came to realize they were going to be left behind...
The first months of Year 46. Troop Transport "Barzeod". A ship of such dishonored and discarded creatures was bought off by the merchant Filn Grod, for considerably under the market rate.
He didn't know much about these cheap and simple 'Silanbar' creatures, but it couldn't be that hard to just ditch the stupid things on a planet and fly away, could it?...
-The Plot and Characters-
This is a pirate ship plot specifically for big scary Silanbar characters. They could be violent criminals, veteran ship raiders, sociopathic cannibals, deranged pit fighters, or former prize pets. No matter the moral alignment and disposition chosen, these are savage and unruly creatures that respect only personal power, cunning and voracity! They are big strong hungry space gators, and rare is the garbage dragon with the right Kuvexian training to know how anything works! A wandering horde of ravening creatures, their ferocious adventures could take them through criminal scrapyards, forgotten megastructures, the sewers of the Nepleslian sprawl- All in the name of treasure, subterfuge, and illicit contracts from heck knows who.
Leadership and overall direction is going to have a strong freeform element, though strong flags for possible raiding targets and alliances will be given.
Threads will be SPs with the occasional JP for personal interactions. Violence and language will generally be 2s for forum stuff, but up to 3s for JPs. These are kinda bad dudes, but the focus is fun, so obviously talking to other players about particularly dark concepts is probably necessary. Characters CAN be injured by the GM for doing something crazy or overdramatic, though intentionally trading blows comes with the territory, as you might expect!
Non-Silanbar characters may be allowed if they fit the theme, but I make no promises. Open to suggestions, though.
-How To Sign Up-
Post here to state interest, or maybe fling a link to a WIP character idea. This will most likely start as open RP, so 100% complete wiki articles aren't mega neccisary just yet.
I personally think that cool and original characters are the lifeblood of forum RPGs, and I can't wait to see what you guys come up with!
Plot is most likely starting in a week, pending submitted characters. Thanks for reading, and feel free to drop me a line if you need more information.
