PREMISE + SETTING [17 Aug 2014|12:39pm]

In the semi-distant future, Earth has got it's shit together. A huge push to explore space has been embarked upon. For years, more and more people have been sent into deep space, mainly to explore and colonize a planet that can sustain human life.

That planet is nicknamed 'Quazar', because Planet 652B-Z wasn't really acceptable.

As the years stretched on and on, one thing became abundantly clear - Earth was really, really far away.

The problem was that they were making all the calls. They would hand down laws and decrees about how things needed to operate a billion miles away, and eventually, those who were out there decided that just wasn't fair. Who was Earth to tell them what to do when they were the ones out on the front lines, trying to get everything done?

A revolution started, and very quickly succeeded.

Now, those out there on and around Quazar have to make their own way, forging ahead as they try to make things up as they go along.

QUAZAR


Quazar is a small mostly water covered planet. It's about a third the size of earth, but it has breathable air and it's water is fresh, fit for human consumption. It's rich with indigenous life, though so far in the years humans have been colonizing it nothing has been deemed intelligent.

Some of it is dangerous, there are vicious, pony sized creatures that people describe as being a cross between a hedgehog, wolf and alligator. They seem to be pack animals, and are one of the biggest threats on the planet's dry land.

In the water, there's marine life booming. There's far more going on beneath the surface of the water than there is on land. Humans there haven't even begun to even discover everything in there.

Quazar's weather patterns are a huge mystery to everyone. The seasons cycle in short order, sometimes lasting only a few weeks before shifting toward the next. There are violent storms that rage across the world, and it's probably the biggest danger to those living there. Diving below the surface of the water into safe haven pods to ride out the storms is common.

The main headquarters of the Revolution is located on Quazar. It's the most well built building, made to withstand attacks, and just happens to withstand the weather as well. It's the main hub of communication with everyone in the solar system, serving the function of loose government, public and emergency services.

THE MOONS

Quazar has a lot of moons, and oddly enough, it seems a lot of them are useful in a variety of ways, from needed resources, to research outposts to potential home worlds as well. Because all of this has gotten up and running so recently, the moons haven't been even close to fully explored. It's the newest priority for ships at the moment - get those moons looked at and see what can be made of them.
