    Step into a galaxy under occupation where heroism is punished and survival is a way of life.

    A decade after Order 66, the Empire has had time to settle in. Not just with armies, but with laws, checkpoints, informants, and fear. Systems are occupied “for their safety.” Industry is nationalized. Dissidents vanish. Whole worlds are taxed into oblivion, and those in power prosper.

    Shipping lanes are plagued by patrols.
    Bureaucrats seize cargo with a signature.
    People can disappear into the system.
    And what power you believed you had over your own life is gone…
    unless you learn how to move quietly.

    This is an 18+ story-first roleplaying game. Write the stories you want—action, intrigue, romance, slice-of-life, and long arcs—built on consent, collaboration, and respect.

  • Conversations and questions about current, upcoming, and advertised games and the hobby as a whole.

    For those who haven’t RP’d in several years, what keeps you checking in/weighing in on the forum? I’m referring here to the forum parts specifically about MUSHing and RP, not the social/ooc parts like RL support, pets, books, dead people, etc.

    Pure aspiration that one day the stars will align.

    @Gashlycrumb Also, chances are most of the people you (general not specific) have a problem with have a similar opinion of you so 1) Why would they care? 2) Why would they be surprised? People are allowed to avoid games because of Staff (whether your own issue or in support of someone else) so it seems hypocritical to not allow Staff the same option especially when they’re the one putting in the effort to run the game.

    y’all. go outside. for…like…a while.

    being in this headspace is just Not Good, for anyone involved.

    I work in food service. I mu for pretend fun times, not to put up with the same kind of shit I at least get paid for at work.

    okay, I never suggested you put up with it. I am telling you your plan is just a power fantasy and that scenario would never play out the way it does in your head.

    at best, you suddenly make a single dice roll (there’s…no “I automatically stab him and kill him” button), staff steps in and reiterates that they have already explicitly told you they will not run this scene. you push the issue and you’re shown the door and remembered as that uncomfortable weirdo who wouldn’t take no for an answer.

    just save yourself a lot of grief? if a game is not working for you, be an adult and leave. post your reasons why here, and because you’re behaving reasonably way more people are likely to listen and consider it or approach staff with their complaints, change may happen, etc.

    from an objective third party, there is no chance, zero, none, that “I stand up to staff by forcing them into a combat scenario and everyone claps!” works. please understand that I am being frank with you in hopes that it helps, not to mock you.

    Been painting a lot of minis since Feb of last year. Got done with this one recently and thought I would share as these are dark times and I hope all of you are hanging in there.

    Also hope folks have been enjoying RP! I find my brain not wanting to write as much these days. I should change that some time soon.
