PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY!
(Part sequel, part reboot.)
Time has passed in the Andromeda Galaxy. No longer is it so vast and unexplored. At least 75% of it is now known to the races that dwell here. New races have been found, new planets colonized, new wars being waged. It's a wild age.
You all are on board a rather old ship. Some of you have been on board a ship like this before...
This thing can service 6 crew members.
Now, it's time to make a name for yourselves.
(In bold is the application form example.)

Job on Ship: List of Races:*Old*
Humans: Also known as Earthlings or Terrans. This race is a young one in terms of spacefaring, only learning how to do so about 450 years ago. They are mostly average, save for their adaptability to new situations.
Solm: A gecko-like humanoid race that used to have a hierarchy based on scale color before the destruction of their homeworld. To put it simply, Solm with warmer colors were upper class citizens, while lower class citizens were cooler colors. Nowadays, the hierarchy is gone, for the most part.
They are efficient ship engineers, able to figure out a ship's problem easily. However, their melee fighting skills are in need of work...
Octomoras: A race of originally water bound cephalopod humanoids from Aquin V, they are considered to be master scientists by many. One of their greatest achievements are the Land Lungs, allowing any Octomora the ability to move on land. These are put on most Octomora babies.
The Octomora are excellent scientists, perfect for seeing what kind of enemy you'll be facing and what weaknesses they have. However, they aren't very agile...
Kreptos: Brutish, red, and semi-humanoid crustacean looking dudes, these guys are among the biggest races, towering over 8 feet high! They are very much a military race, charging into battle and often crushing the opposition, sometimes quite literally under their boots.
A Krepto is often an excellent warrior and gunsmith. They cannot, however be good engineers for their lifes...
Machimachi: A mysterious humanoid race made of pure plasma. Some say these were experiments by another race. These guys are strange. The only real discernable features on their heads are their eyes, glowing a different color than the rest of them. Despite lacking a mouth, they can speak. They feed on strangely, static electricity in the air.
Machimachi are great communication officers. Most likely from hacking into comm systems with their own bodies. However, they cannot use plasma weapons, as the weapon will suck their strength away for power.
Further explanation on a Machimachi's plasma:
There are 3 colored parts to a Machimachi.
The shell (a thin skin equivalent), the eyes (which appear to only have colored sclera if you look), and their inner core.
Yellow and red are common shell colors.
Common eye colors are purple, red, cyan, and other such colors.
Inner cores are often a darker shade of the shell's color.
Mechians: Humanoid robots made by humans. The majority of these guys are rooted in their organic hating empire, while a few others have become friendly to humans...
These guys are good with ranged weaponry, but they suck at science, surprisingly.
*New*
Yola: A race of short, green skinned, and pointy earred humanoids known for their might, which rivals that of a Kreptos!
Their appearance has led to some (mainly humans) to nickname them "goblins" after ancient creatures of myth.
Yola are not too bad as warriors, but they have tried to mimic the Kreptos way of gunsmithing... and failed. Quite miserably, in fact.
Oba: A race of serpentine folk, they can be described simply as big snakes with a human like torso and arms.
Oba are not fast, but they are cunning, often tricking enemies in all sorts of ways.
List of Factions: Andromeda Federation (all races, except for mechians): Once covering only Benov and its surrounding system,
It now covers 36 systems! They still patrol all of known Andromeda, though.
Terran Empire (humans): A violent faction led by an emperor who dominates
5 16 systems. Pretty big and pretty powerful. Do not screw with these guys.
Yulan Syndicate (humans, solm, kreptos, octomoras): A syndicate of various megacorporations that rule over now 7 systems. This union of credit grubbing companies have subsidaries for
everything. They even have their own army, consisting of mostly Kreptos.
Malian Empire (solm): Another warmongering empire, they are the only major Solm faction that uses the old hierarchy. They rule now 17 systems and are archenemies of the Terran Empire.
Octomora Union (octomora): A collection of 2 systems ruled by a council of 3. Often sends out probes.
Oba Republic (Oba only): A rather decadent republic spread across 6 systems.
Yola Trade Group (Yola only): This group of traders only have one system as part of their territory... How sad.
Stats:Strength: Helps in conflict and other strength based things.
Speed: Helps in evading, dodging, and attacking.
Stamina: Helps in taking a hit, resisting weather, etc.
Intelligence: Helps in studying, fixing ship problems, etc.
