Space...once it was believed to be the final frontier among the humans, indeed for a great many people before they have reached for the stars. Their homeworlds gave them troubles and conflicts they wished to escape from. But now, they only know new conflict and new games of war and politics never before imagined. The horror of the cosmos is nwo at the forefront for everyone to face. But that doesn't bother you, does it? No, you and others like you embrace this conflict...profit off of it. To you the unknown and the deadly offer opportunity, excitement, and a way of life. Together with your fellow space-explorers, you'll brave the dark reaches of space, face horrors you never dreamed of, and earn yourself a place amongst the stars. Are you ready to being your journey? ***************************************** https://chyoa.com/story/Stories-of-Horizon.10162 Just so I can spare myself the trouble of posting all the relevant documents and information, here's the link to the story that's based around the game that I set up that has all the information one needs. Look through all of it and see if it's what you're into! ***************************************** Hello everyone! This time around, I feel like I should stop pussy-footing around and just get right into it, finally. I am going to be GMing (unless someone else wants to give it a spin) a game of Horizon! Though, this will be done in teh Sexual RPs baord and not on a site like roll20 to do tabletops, so it's not gonna operate 100% like Horizon. It'll still have plenty of core mechanics, but it'll do some things differently and go with a more RP-structure rather than purely dice rolls. The GM will still mostly control how things go in the long run, but there might be more player adgency as to what the characters can get away with doing. Above I linked the story that I have made for the game. Within the Introduction chapter there are links to all the documents that one will need to know how to play (The Manual, The Fringe expansion, and the Warp Compendium). Within the main document there is the character sheet template and instructions in how to construct a character. If you are interested in joining, then I need to see a full character sheet. Every information required needs to be filled out in order to receive approval. I am willing to answer any questions one may have during this phase, just ask them here or PM me if you feel asking questions is embarassing. I am loking for a comfortable range of 3-6 players, though can operate with more if the interest is high enough. Also, when you submit a character sheet...I'll need you to choose what story you all would be more interested in doing. This will just involve you putting (either at the end or the beginning of your sheet) "Story Preference: #X", there will be numbers and letters. Here are the stories to choose from: 1) Group is involved in the Alliance military Votes: 0 2) Group is a mercenary group formed in conjunction to a military 2A) Alliance mercenaries Votes: 3 2B) Free Trade Federation (Aravi, Sphinxes, Centauri (Space Centaurs)) mercenaries Votes: 0 2C) Junker's Union (Orocu (Space Orcs), Zasarians, and Canids) mercenaries Votes: 0 3) Group is an independant group or independant individuals for hire Votes: 4 Whichever one gets the most votes shall be the backstory for the group as well as offer different mechanics that the group will have to face. You can get a hint as to what these differences are in the "Military vs Mercenary" section in between the Sexual Content and Genetic Upgrades sections. There will also be a mechanic based for this RP. In the fiction of Horizon, unless you have a Warp-drive that goes into the Warp itself, it takes a great time before you get to destinations in space. These can take weeks, months, or even years. So I was thinking to do a thing where once the group is on their ship and flying to somewhere, there is 1-2 week period of free roam RP. Where the characters are free to do whatever amongst themselves aboard their ship going through space. Once that 1-2 week period is up, they will have ICly arrived to the destination no matter what actions they were doing prior. There is also an option that if people are bored of waiting and got nothing to do, they can come back to this thread and post "Skip" as well as explain what their character will be doing in teh mean time. Once all people have done this, the time is advanced and they will have arrived to their destination. Feel free to give an opinion about this mechanic if you so wish. If no one objects to it, it will be assumed it's alright and will be implemented. I will state here on this thread once free roam has been initiated. I'm thinking of calling this "En Route Status". Though, be careful...there might be chances of meeting some nasty things while en route to your destination. ***************************************** What can one expect in terms of kinks or content for such a forray? Well, a great variety of things really. It's a big, big galaxy out there with lots of aliens, monsters, and a great many events just waiting to happen. Here's a list!

The actions taken by both his teams and himself have left their mark on Max; he has become rather stoic in nature, withdrawn, guarded and difficult to read.

Lithe, graceful, normally wearing nun-style robes and several mystic charms around his neck (they have no actual use, other then as part of his disguise), and androgynous. He’s killed more than one person who assumed he was a Camarian callgirl. Character Background: Military (Trained in Protectorate Intelligence), Colonist. History: Born on Camar, in a major Protectorate city. Joined the Protectorate intelligence service immediately after leaving school (with only a Bachelor of Psychology). Following training (waterboarding, anyone?) he was assigned to counterintelligence's wetwork in his home city, leaving a trail of “missing” agents of various powers behind him. When he “accidently” killed a Collective diplomat (who was “innocently” spreading news about the advantages of psionic powers), he was reassigned to a remote colony world, in order to “keep him from the public eye”.* *For readers unfamiliar with intelligence work or euphemisms: Assigned to rooting out and killing operatives of other powers in his city. Under orders from his superiors, deliberately murdered a Collective diplomat, who was running a pro-Collective propaganda campaign, the Collective complained about the death, and he was sent off-world so that no one would find him. When on the colony, his given years of freedom ran up (Camarian males are given twenty years, spread as they wish throughout their life, plus their first twenty years (where they are not of the age of consent), where they are free to live as they wish. Outside of that, they’re breeders). Rather than return to a life of sexual servitude, he simply... disappeared. Character Measurements: 6’ 0”, 143 lbs.

Character Measurements: B74 W56 H78 cm Language: Merrow, Common Credits: 2100 Weapon: Spear Rifle The Spear Rifle is an Assault Rifle that fires small spears rather than bullets. Spears can come in simple, explosive, corrosive, and a myriad of others. The primary weapon of most Merrow soldiers, it can be used on land and sea, although more effective underwater and in Zero Gravity situations. Rather than old human spearguns, the Spear Rifle has smaller projectiles, fired in rapid succession. The result is the same, with barbs piercing the flesh, and sticking to the target. This can cause painful and crippling wounds. Uses air cartridges and spears, and while the weapon is inexpensive, the magazines are pricier.

Even if people have no ideas for a character thus far, I would still like to be able to discuss the game or any ideas for characters people may have. This will also act as an OOC thread, so feel free to start a conversation about anything involving the game.
How about some sort of cyber call girl/assassin? I can be a brainless bimbo or switch my cyberbrain to engage ruthless tech-ninja assassin girl. Is that possible? What group would be most likely to employ someone like that?
Sorry to hear that, thanks for stating interest beforehand If you wish, there's probably some things in there to make tht work. It is quite possible to retrofit a sexbot android into becoming an Assassin or for someone to be a modified clone to be a bimbo assassin. As for what group would like that? Well, I suppose it depends. If you're an android who does assassin stuff, might have a hard time in the Alliance military. Combat droids are banned, so your android would have to disguise herself as something else. Though mercenary groups, or independant contractors probably wouldn't care. Maybe can even put in criminal organizations or maybe she's ex-criminal organization?
How about the modified clone? I want her to be able to reproduce if it comes to that in the story. How about this: she was created and modified by some sort of criminal organization, but she escaped from that life (she hopes) and is working on her own. She might be hunted by some jabba the hutt type if you want to use that at some point. I say independent group or mercenaries. Alliance probably wouldn't work for her background.
Androids do have synthetic reproduction organs (though only an option if sexbot, other androids don't have reproduction organs). But, not very often you get clones, so hey, I'll take it. I can imagine some criminal types for her to be involved in if you don't wanna make them yourself
Yeah sure, I want to play a character who can be a total silly bimbo one scene and then flip it around and be a calculating dangerous foe in the next. Give her any sort of entanglements you want for the purposes of your story. I'm not afraid of dark content. It's just another fun challenge. I don't know the system though so you might have to help when I create the actual character.
Sure, that's fine. If you wish to ask questions feel free to PM me, continue them here, or contact me via Skype if you have it.
I'm willing to give it a shot -- it's been forever since I've done an honest-to-god, tabletop like RPG, but I think I can dust off my old D&D hat. I've got a couple of ideas so far after leafing through the lore and references -- a doctor (regenerator sounds excellent) or an engineer for the vessel.
Not often I see someone wanting to play a healer in this game. If you're up for it, that would be swell!
I started working on my character and I find the system pretty confusing. Character creation gives you 50 points. If I make a human their base IQ is 50 and I can only raise that to 100 by spending all of my character creation points? Is that right? Is there a max on the other stats?
You don't spend the 50 points on IQ, the IQ stat has a completely different thing going on. The 50 points only go into: HP Accuracy Defense Psionic Mental Resistance Technology Persona Luck Technology, Persona, and Luck have maximums of 20, since you have to roll below your stat value to be able to perform tasks. There are ways to get above this to 21 or more, which means you are so good at the task, that you will use your expertise to always pass unless the fiction says otherwise. The other stats can go on and on since they relate to combat. For IQ, you start off of with a roll of 6d20. Then you had your race's base IQ and then add the roll appriopriate for your class. For example, let's say you are doing your human assassin. Then your IQ rolls will look like this: IQ roll, 6d20=20+8+2+19+6+13=68. 50 for human base IQ, 68+50=118. Outlaw mod 1d6, 4+118=122. So you wind up with a result of an IQ of 122.
That helps! New question: what do I do with the sex attributes? It gives me 20 points but then it cryptically says the more points I put in libido "allows you to increase the number of points you have in other sexual stats." So I'm trying to make my character as much of a sexual powerhouse as possible. I don't care too much about sexual resistance, because she is a woman and can orgasm repeatedly, but do I need to add points to libido to be able to spend points in anything else? Sexual Endurance: 5 (starting) Sexual Prowess: Sexual Resistance: Libido: Fertility: 4 (human base)
It's still up for debate how much points you get in bonus for sex stats when you put some into libido and still keep it balanced. I'm just gonna say for every point you put into Libido, you get 2 to allocate. Got 10 points in Libido? Now you got 30 to allocate. However, you msut be careful because the more libido you have, the easier you are to seduce. Seduction: Persona versus Mental Resistance. Meaning you take your Persona, roll a 1d20, and add that together; adding or subtracting based on rp, and see if that beats their Mental Resistance to it. Libido actually removes Mental Resistance for the attack, meaning it's entirely possible that with high Libido, your Mental Resistance to the attack might very well be 0... meaning, you're VERY easy to seduce.
So, when it comes to classing and after 10 missions, I could choose another class in addition to my own then? Like, say, if I were a martial doctor, then after 10 missions, I could do a martial researcher or something, or choose to stay within the Healer class go toward a technology regenerator? Also, would it be fair to say that the martial subclass is the base one for that class, and the others are more specialized, or are they all just variants on a theme? So, I could choose to be a regenerator over a doctor?
When you successfully complete 10 missions, there are 3 ways you can class up. 1) Multi-class - You take up another variant from another class 2) Master Class - You take up the other two variants from your already established class 3) Veteran Class - You go to the veteran classes and pick one you qualify for Also, what you pick on character creation is variants. Let's use Healer for example. Healer is the class. It's variants are Doctor (martial), Regenerator (technology), and Miracle Worker (psionic). It's a theme that hosts different means of living up to that theme. If you wanna be a healer, you have to choose one of those 3 variants
