-------------------------------------------

EDIT:
@Kristia
Ya think no one else would be interested in this as well? Meh...

I'll probably just keep this here as a back-up for later...sort of like Shattered Ice Flower...which I should fix up.

im not saying no one will come here cucoo, since Sanctuary is going downhill and I don´t know about the others.. ._.

So what kind of technology is it like? Like transportation capabilities, weaponry and also civilization (everyday life things, on the planets). Btw, you missed out the gender in the character Bios.

Now it's looking more like a proper RP. Might come over here if I have time. I wouldn't say that Fight Against Fantasy is going downhill, it's just a slow RP

@ book
technology wise for transportation...I knew I was missing a detail

I'll add this to OP also but here's what there is:

Space travel is common place, personal transports are easily obtainable. Most common transports for intra-planet travel are personal hovercycles.

For intergalactic travel there's "Warp Gates" which can link to any other powered on Warp Gate in the galaxy.

I'ma steal the look of the one in Star Fox: Assault



In this video it warps to a specified coordinate, in this story it has to be another gate.

Standard life: varies with the planets. There can be heavily colonized planets that have futuristic cities to planets that are trading posts and only have wood cabins or w/e (I'll reference like Tatooine in Star Wars)

- Cities: Stereotypical future city with hovercars and w/e (refrencing Sonic Riders for what one of the first things I think of aside from scenes in Star Wars)



- Trading Posts: I'll just say its more like Tatooine in Star Wars and leave the rest to imagination.

- Space Ports: These are like futuristic Airports combined with a small city. Sometimes replaces Trading Posts.

- You can add anything else you want, honestly the spectrum is pretty large because of the fact its a galactic stage.

------------------
Weaponry has advanced beyond projectiles, although missiles are still sometimes used. Standard issue infantry weapons are C-Pulse Rifles which use energy from the crystals to create "Concentrated" (hence the C) energy blasts. Other variations include special lenses which adapts the crystal to a different element type so there can be flamethrowers, water cannons, wind cannons, etc. With the crystals, they can be used indefinitely as long as a moment to let them recharge is allowed. Typically there are limiters which slow the fire rate so that the crystal can recharge. If the limiter is removed, then the crystals can be depleted, but then the weapon becomes useless and then you would need to replace the crystal, so it could be like changing a clip in a standard gun, except most guns if you were to rapid fire to kill, would last only 10-20 rounds or w/e would be a very small amount.

Space Fighters are also common and have similar attributes. Limiters are typically implemented to keep the fighter's speed down so that the crystal doesn't die. Also computer systems can regulate speed, firepower, and shields accordingly. There are two types of fighter pilots, which determines the type of fighter:
Mavericks and Drones.
- Mavericks are pilots that believe in going in their fighter and meeting danger head on.
- Drones are Pilots that remotely control their fighters.

A maverick fighters vary depending on the pilot's preference. For example: Aion sacrifices overall firepower and shields for raw speed and agility. Whereas Joe sacrifices shields for agility and firepower.
Drone pilots tend to value raw offensive power over shields and speed.

The 3 factions (which are in the notes at the bottom of OP) have various class of Cruisers, which are your typical big starships.

Gonna steal this pic for general designs but they can vary. (random pic that I liked...happens to be a Mass Effect starship XD...)



The size of the cruiser varies by its class (Order of largest to smallest...and yes I just did the order by what sounded good...)
Alpha
Beta
Gamma
Delta
Omega
Kappa
Lambda
Zeta

Typically heavily armed and shields are able to be localized to attacks to become near impenetrable (except when focused on one thing they become weaker elsewhere, like anything in like Star Trek and what not.) overall weaponry decreases with the size (Except the Kappa class...that will be an exception because of obvious reasons, and the Omega class just because of a certain story element later.)

...anything else can be left to the imagination almost. Just ask first, even though it would be only ideas that would conflict with other concepts that I would shoot down.

Ok added a few more starting points in the IC here to hopefully maybe interest a few people.

and I seriously need to make up bios for ALL of my characters...
shoot...
that'll take a few days...
unless I say that the characters that are key to the base story don't really need bios...cause I got like...thirty-to-forty some characters in that category.

What I'm saying is that there'll still be the base story, but everyone else would add to it and it will adapt to it.

I'm interested...just don't have the time at the moment...exams are coming up X.X

@ book
right right...

curious what solar system would you start in?
