The Lone Ranger of Mars
« on: August 10, 2011, 05:17:21 pm »

Just some mood setters:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

NEW CYDONIA

POPULATION: 370


It is the year 2156, Martian colonization and terraformation was carried out large corporations from Earth in the late 2090s, Mars is now primarily used for Agriculture and mining of the rare Cydonite, invaluable to electronics on Earth, the discovery of the material caused huge leaps forward in Computing and Robotic technology. Now, the settlers of Mars govern themselves and the dusty wilderness has fallen into ruin of it's past glories.


Essentially what I am aiming at is a Borderlands style text-based adventure game. So! The adventur begins.

Build your character:

NAME: xxxxxxxx

Equipment: (anything within reason, these are poor Martian immigrants looking for fortune in a recessive world)

Traits and Abilities: (again, keep within the context)

Yes, this looks interesting! But is it a Single character suggestion adventure, or multiplayer?

Max Yeskly:

Inventory:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Max stands at the old Hover-Runner dock, overlooking a large crater formed many years before colonization, the Hover-Runners barely run any more but a Timetable is pinned to a board to his right. Behind him is the town of New Cydonia, a depressed town with high unemployment and a small population, a dirt track leads through the town, past saloons, general stores and such, and up into the mountains to the south.

He slings his archaic weapon over his shoulder and decides what he is going to do....


Reyhana Tahan sits in the Red Rock Inn, the saloon of New Cydonia, large holograms display the latest offers and several down beat people litter the hot and dry room

Sami sits on the terrace of a small, wooden house in what can be described as the suburbs of New Cydonia, he is lonely, out of work and out of luck, above him, the sun beats down mercilessly.

Digger
is sitting at the closed mine, so many memories and thoughts, or maybe that is his medicine acting up again. He's been born on this planet, one of the first to do so, and he was now seeing it in decline, he grabs his hunting rifle and decides to look for pastures new.. or more medicine, we can't be sure.


ALL SLOTS ARE FULL

Reyhana goes to fill her canteen in the town well, then tries to buy at least a weeks worth of dry food from the local general store
