In the Dead of Space

No one can hear the screams of terror from the crew of the U.S.S.M. Sojourner, as they are attacked and overwhelmed by and unknown enemy. At 0542 reports came flooding in from the Marine Vessel of strange creatures attacking, and killing off the crew mercilessly. Eventually, all reports from the ship stopped, and the power to the ship was severed, showing the ship as D.I.A. (Destroyed in Action)) Not wanting to lose such a huge investment, a second ship was sent to investigate, and possibly save some of the crew. Hundreds of soldiers did not know the hell that they were about to be thrust into.

Post when you are ready

i will tommorow most likly

I will post when I have more time, most likely going medical

Actually, is it possible to have robots or friendly aliens in this game? Waiting answer before posting character (medical, since everyone's going to be a hardnut marine).

There will be bots, but friendly aliens will take away from the fear factor, which is kinda the reason I made it. haha

Can I play as a robot?

If you want to, but please don't be unstoppable and just killing everything that moves. I designed this to be more fear based than gung ho.

Like how I try to do Hazmat even though people ignore that little fact... *looks at Mando* You know who Im talking about lol... Hey Jake! Interesting idea... Dead Space inspiration?

Not really. I saw dead space, but that was a little too badass for my tastes. This is more like Afraid of the Dark, where you are better off finding ways around the baddies.

Thankies! And don't worry, my robot will be a medic robot with limited fighting capabilities. I'm take a different team assigned to investigate the ship. If worst comes to worst, I'll have to NPC the retrieval team. Let me know if this is ok:

Name: Med1C
Rank: Corperal
Ship: (I'll take the other ship since the story line requires another team) U.S.S.M.C. Excaliber
Division: U.S.S.M.C. Search and Rescue Fleet #4
Team: Gamma
Job: Medical
Specialty: First-Aid and Surgery
Location: Docking Bay 2 of the U.S.S.M.C. Excaliber (prepairing to be transported via shuttle to the Soujourner
Fears: Rather than having fears, Med1C has dangers he must watch out for, such as electrical equipment, magnets, acid, high concentrations of water and high concentrations of air (both of which cause him to quickly malfunction, rust and become bulky and slow)
Attitude: Calm and Logical
Personality: Calm and Logical, he's a robot, not much with the personalities, he sometimes lies about his patients injuries to make them feel better, he sometimes attempts to be more human
Equipment: First-Aid and Surgical equipment, including surgical knives, needles and small lasers (which won't do any bodily harm). Various chemicals and other medical supplies. A side-arm (pistol) for protection, small amount of armour plating for protection (won't stop bullets or hard melee damage)
Appearance: http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/robot.jpg - with pistol
Biography: Created about 3 years ago by R&D. Programmed with basic marine training and field tested for 2 years. Then programmed with medical information and field tested for 1 year. Now serving aboard the U.S.S.M.C. Excaliber as one of the ships doctors and field medics.

Go for it, and I will be a little of the other team as well, to take a little of the stress off of you.

Didn't realise you had named the other ship the Excaliber, changed my profile to match

Just looking for clarification in-game. Is the marine that pushed the button to open the doors still alive? I thought he got shot 😖. Btw, I masked the swearing myself, no need to worry.

The marine who opened the door is just fine, but the one who got shot is kinda dying at the moment.
