So, the last Deep Black Sea went for 240 posts, and people keep asking me when the next one is. So let's get the ball rolling. This one, for IC reasons, will be slightly different in a few ways:
Instead of the Absolution, which was a big fat Lucrehulk core ship, we're going to be flying a Levantine/Mon Calamari MC-42 Ruisto exploration craft. 344 metres long, crew of 650, a very flexible design. The ship is called Baobab.
Signups are a little more limited. With thanks for the contributions of the Darksiders who came along for the ride last time, your IC rationale had better make sense this time around, since this ship and its mission are more closely tied to the Sanctum (and, secretly, the Underground). 'No overt Sith' is a soft rule; you get the idea.
Deep Black Sea is a series on interstellar exploration. The first one involved mapping Companion Esk, one of the small satellite galaxies. This thread will stick to the main galaxy, venturing through Wild Space. Deep Black Sea 2 will focus on one event during this mapping expedition, but there'll be plenty of room for ingenuity, free-roaming, etc.
If I'm remembering right, I've already promised [member="Ermac Laith"] his old job as Security Chief, [member="Chloe Blake"] her old job as First Officer, and slots for [member="Mrrew"] and [member="Kana Truden"]. My memory's pretty spotty on this, though.
If you're interested, use this liddle bitty template:
Character Name:
Relevant Skills: (Last time we had security specialists, biologists, provisions specialists, navigators, pilots, medics, engineers...all sorts. Tell us what your character is best at, and we'll assign you a job and rank.)
Relevant Experience: (Were you in the last Deep Black Sea? Did you participate in the ExGal Hunt threads? Have you run guns for the Underground? Have you been in other exploration-type threads?)
Faction Allegiances: (Sometimes relevant, but not always (the last expedition had a freelancer crew from allllll over the place). Please list all of them as OOC information. Assume background checks will be pretty decent.)
IC Rationale: (Has your character spent time in Wild Space, or near the Levantine Sanctum? Do they have old Rebel ties; do they know Jorus? Is your character the kind of Outer Rim vagabond/explorer who might have heard about this opportunity? Don't bother writing novels about this, just give me a general idea.)
Tagging some other folks from the original DBS who might fit this one fairly well, IC, and who wound up being fairly active:
[member="Anija Ordo"] [member="Manu Xextos"] [member="Catherine Romanov"] [member="Spencer Jacobs"] [member="Rianna be Ar'klim"] [member="Jericho"] [member="Celeste Leon"] [member="Simone"] [member="Judah Dashiell"] [member="Jaani Doosun"] [member="Seanna Vel"] [member="Maya Whitelight"]
