LFG Looking for Rescue Service Crew and Officers!

So, once again, I am asking for your help putting together a group of people to write ship-based stories. It's still with the Rimward Rescue Service, but changed the ship slightly to the Endurance. Bigger ship, more people, more variety, and more drama! The goal is to create a tight-knit, overarching story focused primarily on interpersonal relationships, exploring the Outer Rim, and the awe and wonder of living aboard a starship in a vast and crazy galaxy. (Okay, so fine, there's loads of influence in this from Star Trek. I admit it. Embrace it and make it fun.)

Lots of roles are open, lots of possibilities, and definitely still would love to have the people from the previous round as well. Some possible positions include Science Officer, Chief Engineer, Rescue Officer, Technicians of all sorts, Boarding & Security team members, culinary specialists, Intercultural Specialists, etc. It's not a giant ship, but it has plenty of space for all sorts of things.

Thematically, the storyline would be likely considered 'Nobledark' given the current state of the Chaos galaxy. The Rescue Service is inspired by Starfleet (Naturally) and the ideas of the Coast Guard in the US. The Outer Rim is dangerous, especially around the Kathol Rift and the edges of the galaxy, but the Rescue Service is pitched deliberately at the best, brightest, and the optimists in the Rim who fervently want to make the region of the galaxy safer. Competent, professional, driven. Some come from the spaceborne elites of the Rim, but plenty of others are former smugglers, privateers, and freedom fighters setting aside their previous way of life to build a future where they won't be needed any longer and their children and grandchildren can have prosperous, happy lives. It also emphasizes communal responsibility for the collective well-being, with the Service ranging far across the Outer Rim to perform Search & Rescue patrols, maintain beacons, and ensure that even non-League systems can benefit from their developments.

This often puts them on tricky ground, far outside their home territory and their official jurisdiction, pushing them to rely on their own diplomatic skills and willingness to adapt to work on behalf of local governments without overriding local authority. And they're not a military force either, so they're definitely outgunned by most ships of an equivalent class, meaning fighting can happen, but it's not a fun time like an ISD or battlecruiser could be.

Oh, and have a fun poster- https://www.starwarsrp.net/ams/enlist-with-the-rrs-endurance-today.4207/

Oooh, this is perfect. A recent droid line of mine has recently been approved and I've been itching to make a Player Character out of one, with such a visceral, specific vision in my mind of him operating within a large starship as a sort of maintenance-slash-companion droid. Not exactly a fighter, but he'd have all the utilities of an astromech under his belt, and I can already imagine the amount of banter there would be between a droid who's willing to do what's right despite being somewhat out of his element and a crew of professionally trained soldiers.

I'd love to ship him out to you guys once I'm done, if that's allowed. This sounds incredibly exciting!

Leans back in chair, weighing his options… or option more accurately.

Yeah yeah, that’s all well and good, save some lives, prevent a wreck or two… but does it pay well?” he asked, as if he had any other options out there.

Need an ensign to lead boarding parties? Have zero-gravity training, basic mechanical skills and can fly almost anything… kind of a jack-of-all trades, master of none. Not great with authority though, which is why Dash may find the remoteness so appealing. Keep him far away from any diplomatic matters.

Can always use an ensign to lead boarding parties! We even have red shirts! And sounds like a great way to add a different sort of style to the ship. Variety is always a ton of fun and creates some really good opportunities for storytelling.

As for paying well... the League invests in dividends as a government and distributes the dividends to all inhabitants of member worlds? Plus the mediocre pay? Good benefits though, great dental.

If your gal's tech-savy and up to date with her droid stuff, I wouldn't mind my little metal orb bean tagging along with you, if you'll have him.
 
I have a few characters that might mesh well with this. I'd definitely be interested to learn more about the Rimward Rescue Service and its relation to worlds on the Outer Rim.

Willing to have a backup power source another droid on board? Can do a number of scans and can power up anything, plus I've no sense of self preservation.

Awesome! That would be great! Would be glad to talk more, if there's anything specific you're curious about! The Service is part of the Rimward Trade League, so they prioritize respecting local autonomy and sovereignty while ensuring everyone has access to safe and stable interstellar travel.

Sure! That would be great! Always fun to have droids around!

Add me to your tag list if you'd like.

I can usually find a small planet to exploit reason to be conducting business in the Outer Rim.
