The Setting
In the next galaxy over, there exists a planet where only about 10% of the surface is hospitable. The rest is either; ocean, with terrible monsters living in the deeps; frozen wastelands with terrible monsters living on the ice; hot deserts, with more terrible monsters living buried in the sand; or dense jungle, with yet more terrible monsters living among the trees. However, there are vast mountains pretty much littering the surface of the planet. This has led humanity to build their towns into the mountains, and use flying machines to get from place to place.
Because of the scarcity of hospitable land which people can actually live off, three factions have been fighting on or off for this land for centuries. While these three factions are fighting each other for the hospitable land, and protecting themselves from the monsters that live everywhere else, the sky corsairs have found a way of life detatched from these nations. They make their way by robbing traders, pillaging small towns, and stealing off eachother, and they can find 'safe' harbour at any of the pirate towns scattered across the globe.
You Guys
For whatever reason, you're in the pirate town of Talon's Peak. This is pretty much the one pirate town the established nations will do business with.
You will have an airship, which has a medical bay, some cargo space, some heavy guns, and a small hangar which you can fit two small fighter planes in.
You will also have two small fighter planes.
The System
I'll be using a modified version of the Serenity system. If you want more info, just ask.
If you want to play, please post when you're free, and we can see when it would be best to run. I'm looking to start this when I get back to Bristol, so in about a week's time.
The first session will mostly be character gen. so it would help if you had an idea of the kind of character you would like to play.
If you need more information about the setting or the system, just let me know and I will provide.
