This is a Metroid RP I’ve had in my head for a while now, but I did not wish to suggest in the relevant forums as I do not know much about your cannon or history. SHORT DESCRIPTION: Eplosion-XII, the oldest active space station in the federation and one of the biggest. It was once a first class prison facility many hundreds of years ago but advancements in technology have caused it to become little more than an outpost for bounty hunters and traders, also a transfer point for prisoners and criminals. Now barely at operating efficiency it is only operated by those who either have been transferred there for punishment and those desperate to leave. But many dark secrets lie within the holds of this station, one of them has begun to stir. And he is hungry. Edited by Shin-Ra, Sep 10 2008, 03:13 AM.

Moving this topic to RP recruiting. Now that that's done, this doesn't seem like a bad idea. Tell me more... |

The Prison facility is huge, designed to hold millions of prisoners at a time but due to (again) technological advancements and also 'accidents' most of the areas have been abandoned with rumors of entire cults and populations existing inside the abandoned areas (with sensors no longer being capable for in depth scans of the entire station.) Almost all areas are on minimal power with dark shadows being cast in every corner and near constant sensor glitches and ghosts. Essentially I'm aiming for a very Alien scenario with characters (due to a plot device) removed from most of their ships and equipment and trapped with a seemingly unbeatable enemy. Many plot devices and backgrounds would give vague details about the state of the Federation's origin, and what was needed to bring it to creation but there will be one major element to the storylines: A minimal presence of Phazon. In most of the Metroid stories and RPs I’ve seen, Phazon is almost always used and I'd prefer to move back to some of the enemies and elements within the previous games along with some new and long dead ones. I’d not be running or starting this RP any time soon, but it’s just a thought for the future. And I wanted to see who would be interested in it. |

As with me as well. This seems quite interesting, assuming I'll have th e time and interest to participate in this RP. Now, either thinking of Fanglam, or more preferably, bringing good 'ol Tarsin back (Note he will no longer be a bounty, nor will there be any kind of trace that he was one in his past. He's just going to a simple mechanic). How i can get Tarsin on the station I have yet to decide. |

Depending on when this RP is taking place I could fit in any number of my new characters, perhaps I should even have George in it (dun dun DUN) |

I've not decided upon a time yet but it'll be either be in the wake of Metroid Prime three, or just after the First Metroid Prime. It'll probably the second of those two timeframes as I know most of your chracters are already involved in Aftermath. |

Ehm, aftermath is about 10 years after metroid prime 3 (if I'm not mistaken), and if its around Prime 1 then I obviously cant use any of my ing characters, as they wouldent have left Aether yet. Though considering the scenario I'm probably not gonna use any of those (possibly George though, but he's not a very serious character so I could probably think of a way to fit him in either way). Oh well, do as you see fit xD |

Well, I was planning for it to take place sooner than ten years after the game, and the events in that take place during Corruption would work well with the plot I have in mind so I'd say that this would be set... about a year, possibly a year and a half after Corruption. Just remember, no Phazon present during the RPs events. Backgrounds I don't mind it being present in but just not in the RP. Edited by Shin-Ra, Sep 13 2008, 05:27 AM.

Sounds cool to me. I know I'm using my original character, T'kran, but he'd fit in with this? A year and a half after, you say? That's great, he'd probably still be a little... unstable still, after his corruption. The mind heals more slowly than the body, after all. He'd make a suitable 'Predator' for this Aliens-like RP. |
