Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

A Very Busy Galaxy Started out as the ultimate cross over between sci-fi universes. And was an rp for a short amount of time.

Here is an overview of the main powers of the galaxy:

There are thousands of other more minor powers in this galaxy which I shall go into if you guys are interested? Any alien species suggestions I will try to include although a wikipedia article would help :) Also would you guys want to restart the rp?

Personally, we should stuff the galaxy with as many species as possible....but fuck that as im not the mod <.<
"You shall perish, whatever you do! If you are taken with arms in your hands, death! If you beg for mercy, death! Whichever way you turn, right, left, back, forward, up, down, death! You are not merely outside the law, you are outside humanity. Neither age nor sex shall save you and yours. You shall die, but first you shall taste the agony of your wife, your sister, your sons and daughters, even those in the cradle! Before your eyes the wounded man shall be taken out of the ambulance and hacked with bayonets or knocked down with the butt end of a rifle. He shall be dragged living by his broken leg or bleeding arm and flung like a suffering, groaning bundle of refuse into the gutter. Death! Death! Death!"

I can't make a good looking map for this, all I can do is mess around in paint with the Mass Effect map. Is that worth me doing?

My suggestion? Just take a picture of the galaxy and add transparent colored circles to show spheres of influence for various factions. You could also add dots to show specific locations if you wanted.

lamna- I have accepted Genetic Slaves, don't worry about a map unless you feel compelled to do so.

Watcher- I would love to cram in as many aliens as possible and I will try to, but eventually it could reach the point of being ridiculous.



Anyway heres some details about our ship before I post the sign-up.

(I want you guys to name it, so roll in with the suggestions)

Matching the size and design of a UNSC Frigate, but with the extra budget New Singapore has due to its great wealth it is a great deal more powerful than any other ship its size. It has an independant FTL drive which is powered by Tiberium thus requring it to be refueled rather than the supermassive fusion reactors onboard dreadnought class ships. The weapons systems at the current times are not operational and it was decided that the crews experts should decide on its armaments. The ship hosts a full medical bay, private quarters for around 200 men. Cargo bay containing a few pelican dropships as well as some MAKO assault vehicles. On board are two teams of combat engineers and 150 marines. The ship is overseen by a HAL-9000 AI, called HERA. Right now the ship lacks senior officers and recruitment will follow shortly.

The mission, to explore the unrest in the Terminus Systems and find the source of why so many are fleeing into FPA space. This mission is of the greatest risk and importance to the people of New Singapore, good luck.

Sorry what was the question?


Shes not piloting, the role of pilot is open to a character. She simply looks after the day to day running of things. Kinda like EDI in ME2.

What a human xenomorph? I doubt that would be the sole cause for huge amounts of refugees, xenomorphs are far more terrifying in other forms.

I dont think We will have any villains. Just normal people.

There won't be any such thing as heroes and villains in this rp, instead its the decisions you take. If you wanted to you could betray your crew members but you need a good reason to. Remember at the end of the day your characters have been selected for this mission. Imagine this Rp is going to run like Mass Effect travelling round and exploring with a team of odd jobs and weirdoes who are all excellent at what they do.

Be whatever species you wish to be as long as you can explain how they ended up on New Singapore. Although Xenomorphs and the like aren't sophonts they are infections and so will be wiped out.

I would love to see a xenood
