It's intended to have a rolling cast with a few constant characters((the captain, pilot and clinker)) with the rest of them being swapped at the end of a mission if they don't feel like continuing. Keeps it fresh, no?
That's pretty cool, actually. I'm likin' it. 3nodding

Right, quick draft, verdict?
Concept
This RP takes place in the world of Earth, not earth as you know it though. There was the discovery of an element, a crystal that can store electrical energy and defy the gravity of the land when exposed to a current. This crystal caused a drastic shift in the technology of the ages leaving it seemingly stuck in the industrial revolution.
Most of the RP will take place on the Ymir class Airship, Agatha. Agatha is a mining ship, kitted out to farm lightning and dig out coal, for the Fuel Merchant company SFM&M Co., Storm-chaser Fuel Merchants & Miners Co. The characters will take the place of Agatha’s crew (Pilot, captain, machinist(clinker), harvesters, gunners, explorer/scientist/adventurer) and will carry out the various mining missions whilst battling off pirate raiders, competition from other companies and the various airborne predators that live in the clouds of this reality. As well as dealing with each other.
The flow of the RP would be relatively paced, with timeskips occurring in every other mission to avoid lengthy travels and whatnot. Most missions will see some sort of situation arise to keep things interesting, whether that be an infestation of pests, raiders after our cargo, a race against other companies, malfunctions with the ships robotic equipment, could be anything really.
I need to write it out to flow better but that's most of the points there smile
cool
I like it. What would be the ultimate plot, though? Or is it just kind of a forever roleplay? @_@ That was worded oddly, I'll admit, but I can't think of another way to put it.
XD I get what you mean, and yeah a kinda 'forever RP' as you put it razz Suppose the ultimate plot point would be to become the best Fuel Merchant company out there, but tbh It's not something easy to do in an RP setting... well, it would be awkward xD
But as Arts said, at the end of a mission people can 'swap their characters to different ships' andleave the RP for however long, then jump back in again if they wish smile Who knows, we could even upgrade the ship and just have MORE characters join XD

I'm donating blood tomorrow, so I found a joke to fit the mood.

right, why does Gaia still have that youtube option when it CLEARLY doesn't work?..
*Takes the time to undo the balloons* I'm 19 now, too, by the way! As of exactly a week ago ^^
*Unties last balloon. sneezes as one of the long strings tickles her nose from where it dangles from the balloon on the ceiling. Dives into her pile of pillows, with a little trouble from the antlers, before disappearing again*

*Grabs DTT and Cobalt for some serious gluggle action* Hey you two! No worries Cobalt! We miss you toooo!! How have you been doing?

*offers a comforting hug and a gentle kiss on the cheek of Cobalt* I have missed you, my friend. You are always welcome here as long as I have any say in it. Come when you wish, we will gladly save your place.
so... looks like Giyari has hit on one hell of a good idea there. I still have a soft spot for airship roleplays. also its good to see DTT and Cobalt at anytime.
