So I recently commented on a thread about someone making an RPG in space, I corrected some things, gave some opinions and I contacted him on discord. I ended up coming up with this as a storyline:

Far in the distant future the radio-waves of the human civilization have reached a distant type 3 civilization, they decoded the gibberish that is our radio-waves and had come to a conclusion that they can be the only civilization within the extremely large universe. They decide to start a conquest to rule the near galaxies. At this time the russian’s were preparing for biological warfare. The diseases they were creating were powerful enough to wipe out countries within a decade with an almost-impossible chance to cure. This disease had escaped the military laboratory and created a world-wide pandemic. After years of attempting to cure the virus Russia, France, England and some parts of america, with the very little resources available, decided to create a massive spaceship capable of taking select survivors of the human race to inhabit another planet but while in development the alien civilization had been travelling to our galaxy getting ready to annihilate earth and everyone with it. Once they reached Earth scientists from around the world had stopped work on creating a vaccine and instead tried to acknowledge and have first-contact with the alien spaceship hovering over earth. Almost hours after the arrival 3 beams had shot down from the alien ship completely flooding several countries and murdering what was left of most of the world. In a panic earth’s prized possession had been launched sending a host of people into space. Once the spaceship had gone past mars it launched the 25 people into smaller spaceships with enough power to go across the galaxy. These hosts were cryogenically frozen and after nearly 10000 years of being frozen 22 of these 25 had died during this time due to asteroids, miscalculations and other un-factored problems when travelling the galaxy.

It's not at all finished and we're thinking about creating a fictional galaxy with fictional planets as it's better then labelling out countries and doing extremely complex math. We want to give the player the choice to chose one of 3 characters when they join the server:


Character 1 - Locus, a 13 year old boy


Character 2 - Perdita, a 15 year old girl


Character 3 - Partum, a 32 year old engineer who loves to work and his dream has always been to go to space. He didn’t expect it to happen this way.

and from there it will lead the player onto a cutscene where a narrator matching the characters age and gender will be on an interview in the future explaining what happened to earth. We want to have it so it's shown like a storyboard, 1 build with a narrator and so on.

Once they learn the basics of the story and what happened they crashland on an alien planet where they have to find a way to repair their ship, this will take a long time with quests and loads of little jobs to do.

What do you guys think of this? Would this succeed? Would you be interested in working on it with us?
