The YSS Yukika II: A Classic SARP Adventure
A Subplot of Hinomaru Sunrises II


The YSS Yukika II is one of the first of the brand-new Nozomi II-class Scout (AKA Yui-8 Recon-Scout Destroyer, AKA Type 46 Nekovalkyrja Scout Ship) delivered to the Fifth Expeditionary Fleet. It is the namesake successor to the legendary YSS Yukika, lost during the First Mishhuvurthyar War. The first command of Motoyoshi Tachiko, who was the Chief Medical Officer of the original Yukika nearly two decades prior. Exploring the wide-open Kosuke Sector, fighting the Mishhuvurthyar wherever they are encountered, and, just maybe, finding love among the stars, the intrepid crew delves ever further into the great unknowns beyond.

Inspired by, and paying tribute to, the classic days of early Star Army, this subplot of Hinomaru Sunrises II will be a player-driven, character-centered collection of stories arranged in an episodic format like classic Sci-Fi television shows like Star Trek and The Orville.

  • True to the episodic show format, the player-led stories will be told in vignettes and episodes created collaboratively by the entire cast:
  • As the GM, I will only be providing broad objectives, setting the tone and theme, and approving things and giving feedback, and planning major events
  • The XO will be my Co-GM and is responsible for coming up with the details of that and coming up with missions to implement the GM vision from that guidance
  • Players can have their character focused episodes. Everyone is a potential thread starter and storyteller!
  • The stakes/impact of the stories each will tell should line up with that outline above.
  • The primary focus will be on the bridge crew and section chiefs, but away missions will also be part of it.
  • A stable of NPCs will be available for anyone to use and put in their episodes and post as. You can make NPCs to fill in the roster if you're early enough!
  • All characters should be junior Star Army of Yamatai officers (Shoi Kohosei, Shoi, Chui) of typical Yamataian species (Nekovalkyrja, Minkan, and Yamataian Human/Nepleslian, in order of preference– maybe Elves?).
  • This is an easy-paced, no-rush, part-time commitment. Come in for the episodes you want to play, stay out of the ones you don't or can't! No pressure! No minimum activity demand!
  • This plot will be UNRATED.
  • In Character Actions = In Character Consequences

I was thinking she'd go for the "suspiciously scary office lady" vibe, and give off extremely logical and possibly unethical methods of dealing with situations, occasionally taking things into their own hands and brutalizing intruders, e.t.c...

If you don't think they will have enough to do, or think they'd be better in another role, feel free to say so, though. Don't exactly know the plot points you have planned. Just thought it would make sense as a career path for them, rather than something like a pilot or weapon operative.

Could just make up somebody new.
 
You'll be creating a lot of your own plot points, as will everyone else
 
The Mission Operators on the shifts will probably be NPCs unless someone REALLY wants to play communications station, that's the lowest priority bridge slot
