Offship Roles

With the Horizon operating in mostly civilized and explored space, it will throughout the course of it's mission encounter people who are unassociated with the Horizon, whether it be the crew of an Orion shipping vessel, or the low-paid workers of a space bar near local mining areas. These people will be played by other players, and the positions fall under the category of offship roles, as suggested by the title of this section. There are many different offship roles, but all of them have the same basic idea which governs how they interact with the ship.

Things to know

Before we get to what roles there are, and how they should be played, there are some things that need to be made clear, both from the perspective of the ship and those playing the offship roles.

  • OFF-SHIP ROLES ARE NOT INHERENTLY ANTAGONISTS.
    • This is very important to understand - while some ghostroles can fall into an antagonistic pattern - pirate ships being the main example, keep in mind that you are not an antagonist and expected to behave as a reasonable character, the same as on the Horizon. A group of pirates might see the Spark on its own and decide to jump it, but they're not crazy enough to attack a ship the size of the Horizon unless the Horizon strikes the first blow.
  • The SCC doesn't want harmful incidents on its flagship, and most roles don't want to piss off the SCC
    • Some off-ship roles, depending on location, might have a degree of authority in the region. Keep in mind, however, that most of these factions have some relation with the SCC, and would not want to jeopardize that. A Coalition ranger group who tries to board the Horizon for an 'inspection' is going to get a talking-to from their bosses.
    • In addition, remember that the Horizon is considered the territory of the Republic of Biesel, regardless of where it is - attempting to mess with its operations could not only be a corporate issue, but a diplomatic one. As always, if in doubt, ahelp.
  • You're there to Roleplay.
    • While you're not required to interact with the Horizon, it is a nice thing to do. Tell a story with them, this could be stopping for supplies, asking if you could use their facilities to relax after a long journy, or anything your mind can think of, given the previous two points.
    • Don't stunt roleplay either, dogpiling antagonists and getting involved in security situations when you're presence is unnecessary will be considered valid-hunting in the eyes of administrators and moderators.
    • Sometimes the ship might also be dealing with too much to be able to tell a story with you as an offship role, there could be an active bloodcult aboard currently escalating with security, and they don't want to engage in the amazing idea you had of telling war stories by the bar as TCFL soldiers. Part of playing offship roles is understanding that there may be times where the ship does not require assistance, but also does not want you aboard to tell a story with them, and realizing that there will be rounds where the only interaction you get with the Horizon is limited and over holo-comms.

Orion Express Courier Ship

AKA "We have a delivery!"

Supervisors: Orion Express

Sectors: All except for Elyran sectors and Light's Edge

Available Species: Any

Tasked with delivering a multitude of packages across the spur, the OX courier ship can be found in most regions of space, delivering it's packages. It's crewed by a captain and team of couriers, who, like the ship, have travelled around the spur.

TCFL Patrol Corvette

AKA "Keep our light of liberty shining!"

Supervisors: The Republic of Biesel

Sectors: Tau Ceti, Romanovich Cloud, Corporate Reconstruction Zone, Valley Hale, Badlands

Available Species: Any

You are a team of Tau Ceti Foreign Legion Peacekeepers, under the command of your Prefect. You patrol the Republic's space and borders against pirates, insurgents and smugglers, as well as occasionally reaching beyond the Republic's borders into sectors such as Valley Hale or the Badlands. Despite the Horizon technically being Bieselite space, and the friendly relationship between the SCC and the Republic, keep in mind that you are not an ERT, and should not be involving yourself in the Horizon's affairs without a good reason such as a distress beacon.

Free Solarian Fleet Corvette

AKA "Y'all got some credits?"

Supervisors: Admiral Pieter van der Rensburg

Sectors: Tau Ceti, Romanovich Cloud, Corporate Reconstruction Zone, Valley Hale

Available Species: Human

Mercenaries for hire, the Free Solarian Fleets patrol Tau Ceti's space on contract with the Stellar Corporate Conglomerate and Biesel Government. You hunt pirates and look for any work that might net you another payday. You are commanded by a former Lieutenant of the Solarian Navy, now your superior within the Free Solarian Fleets.

Space Bar

AKA "Who wants a drink?"

Supervisors: Yourself!

Sectors: Tau Ceti, Romanovich Cloud, Corporate Reconstruction Zone, Weeping Stars

Available Species: Any

Seen in all areas of space, Space Bars have a simple goal. To serve drinks to their customers! They may be miners, travelers, or anyone! You don't care, as long as they don't do anything untowardly to you or your bar.

Southern Fleet Administration Survivors

AKA "Put the phoron in the fucking bag!"

Supervisors: They're all dead man!

Sectors: Corporate Reconstruction Zone, Valley Hale, Badlands

Available Species: Human

You represent the scattered remains of the former Southern Fleet Administration. You managed to escape the utter destruction of your battlefleet by the angered Nralakk Federation, and the dividing up of your territory by rivals. Now you reside in dark corners of the Orion Spur, never venturing beyond it. Your only goal is to survive by whatever means necessary, raiding and plundering in the hope of scraping out another day of existence.

NOTE: The SFA are known pirates, and almost all civilised space will treat them as such. Due to their defeat by Biesel and the SCC during the Consequences of the Future arc, it makes sense to treat the Horizon as a threat, and steer clear of any potential confrontation with them.

Coalition of Colonies Rangers

AKA: "Rangers lead the way!

Supervisors: The Coalition of Colonies

Sectors: Badlands, Weeping Stars

Available Species: Human

You represent the Rangers of the Frontier Protection Bureau, assigned to patrol the sector for pirates and respond to distress calls. As with the TCFL, keep in mind that you are not an ERT, and should not be attempting to act as one without being explicitly requested by Horizon command. You serve the interests of the Coalition and its citizens - protecting vessels travelling through COC space, eliminating pirate vessels, and ensuring that the sector stays safe.

Diona Voidtamers

Supervisors: Yourselves

Sectors: Badlands, Gakal, Uueoa-Esa

Available Species: Diona

You are Dionae of either the Rokz or Serz clan of Voidtamers, Dionae who specialize in the taming and trade of space-dwelling xenofauna. Due to their close proximity to Unathi, these gestalts will often resemble Unathi to a degree, with horns, tales or reptilian body shapes. Trade the tamed xenofauna aboard your asteroid for supplies, or seek to tame new ones. If you do not have the Diona whitelist, information about roleplaying a gestalt can be found here

==Imperial Fleet Patrol==.

AKA: "For the Goddess!"

Supervisors: Empire of Dominia

Sectors: Badlands

Available Species: Human

You are voidsmen of His Majesty's Imperial Fleet, tasked with patrolling the Badlands. Mostly, you will be members of the caste known as Ma'zal's, working to pay off your blood debt to the Empire through military service. Though you may encounter vessels from other nations, remember that the Empire is not at war with any of them, and you should do your best to avoid a potential diplomatic incident with another power.

Supervisors: Democratic People's Republic of Adhomai

Sectors: Badlands, Gakal, S'rand'marr

Available Species: Tajara

Keep in mind that you are part of a military - listen to your captain and advisor, and try not to start a war. Aliens and corporations may be suspicious and to be mistrusted, but starting a conflict with a major power is best avoided. Characters should have a Democratic People's Republic of Adhomai background.

You may encounter vessels from nations unfriendly to the Serene Republic, such as the Empire of Dominia, but remember that your nations are not at war, and you should try and avoid starting a fight if possible. Characters in this ghostrole must be of Elyran background and ethnic origin.

Freebooters

AKA: "Hey, man. You got any of that phoron?"

Supervisors: Yourselves

Sectors: All

Available Species: Any

You are the crew of an independent freighter, wandering the Spur in the hopes of payday. Whether that comes through trade, salvage, mining or straight-up piracy is entirely up to you and your captain - though try and avoid picking a fight you can't win.
