Earth that was, got all used up. Mankind left for the stars, trying to find a new solar system to populate. They succeeded, finding a system with dozens of planets and hundreds of moons. Many of these were terraformed to create hospitable environments for people to live.
The inner planets formed the core worlds and quickly became the most advanced. Life on the outer planets is much rougher, where life and death come both quickly and cheaply. Those core worlds quickly formed the Alliance, and wanted to bring the rest of the 'Verse under their care. However, they did not expect the border worlds to wish Independence.
It has been 10 years since the war ended, who won is now irrelevant. The Alliance now has jurisdiction over every inhabited planet, ideally policing the worlds and providing unimaginable comforts. However, the reality is that not much has changed on the border, as the Alliance do not have the resources to hold them down.
Out on the rim, the laws are more felxible. Many ships travel the darkness delivering cargo, whether it is on the right side of the law or not.
Welcome aboard the Nameless, being here obviously means you are interested in one of the currently Vacant positions on the Crew. I am Lady Ileosa, owner of the Nameless. Mainly my Captains are given free reign to transport and run the ship as they will, as long as I get my cut.
This is set in a Firefly-esque universe with a few changes that will be seen eventually. It is also using the HERO 5th Edition Revised ruleset.
