Join the Navy and Fight Against the Alien Threat

Centuries ago, the Great Scream sundered the galaxy, destroying the jump-gates, oblierating the reliable safe hyperlanes and casting the vast territories of man into ceaseless infighting, the Blood Wars in which quadrillions of lives perished on countless worlds across the known galaxy. Old Terra was lost, forgotten, the knowledge of the Mandate scattered and buried in the cataclysmic wars that followed.

On a distant world on the edge of the galaxy, survivors who lost contact with the coreworlds (What they now call "The Dead Zone") began to rebuild their civilization with various factions falling into a technofeudal state, each jockeying for power until one man, Garsennian the Great of House Indaris united their world into a single state with shared power of other noble houses.

The Indari Hegemony was formed 317 local years ago on the Crownworld known now as Indaris Prime in the Renevatio system. Located in the Outer Arm of the Milky Way Galaxy it is over 30,000 light years from Old Terra.

Currently the Indari Hegemony spans over 20 star systems and Trillions of citizens. They have no current relationship with any known civilization human or otherwise as of 313HC, having remained isolated during the Blood Wars of the last centuries. Much of their technology and scientific knowledge has been built up from crude pioneering equipment and out of date ships.

The ruling body is House Indaris, currently governed by Prince Vaynre Indaris maintaining the Hegemony over the other four Great Houses: Aesgar, Liandra, Revack, and Solune. Each House commands it's own forces, holds it's own systems and by tradition owes fealty to House Indaris who maintains the largest military force and controls the most systems that it might keep the other Houses in check. Each House also has the fealty of several smaller hereditary houses and all their associated forces and properties.

This is the doctrine of Hegemony, the strongest rules and the rest follow in their own way. A delicate balance is held between forcing cooperation between rival Houses and maintaining enough tension between them that they do not usurp Indaris as the ruling power. For over 300 years this has served the Hegemony well and despite minor skirmishes and honor duels between Houses, the empire and the people have prospered and grown strong under the Indaris Princes.

It has been four years and the first contact with the Unified Brotherhood resulted in a long and bloody war, but not the UB has been scattered, their planets burned or conquered and they no longer pose a real threat to the Hegemony.

Rumors of a new Power beyond the Dead Zone fill Spaceport bars and the Astral Forces are preparing for something...

On the outer edges of Hegemony space, just inside the Dead Zone, a Hegemony listening post in the system designated Ultima Black has gone silent. A detachment of Corvettes designated "King Squadron", part of the 9th fleet have been dispatched to investigate. When they return, they bring stories, video and hard evidence of an alien raiding force attacking the installation, killing everyone aboard.

They are heroes of the Hegemony and of their own Houses, however, heroes are not made without sacrifice. Many brave men and women died in battle against the alien threat and King Squadron needs reinforcements, new crew, new ships, and new skippers to command them.

Are you ready to answer the call?

(A semi-hard sci-fi Stars Without Number game set primarily at TL 4.5. Setting is partially homebrew, details provided in game or at request. Starting character level 4. If you are interested in another non-fleet related role in this world/game, please let me know, I have a whole galaxy of possibilities we can work with.)

Edit: Just to be clear, this is the original game, not Revised Edition.

We've picked up a couple of new players, but we can always use more.

Still looking for Ship captains, or maybe special agents, assassins, intelligence officers and so on.

I am well willing to work with you on character creation, but please do not pose an idea and then be utterly unwilling to work with me on fitting that into the setting. That is a massive Red Flag.
