    Contrary to what you may believe, this is not a game thread. Im writing a book (or trying to), and Im looking for stories to go along in it. Anyone may write their own fiction based on the setting given below. Anyone who makes the cut will be added to the list of stories All stories need to be at least a half page long in MS Word at 12p font, double spaced.. All users added will be mentioned, all credit given as necessary, et cetera et cetera.

     

    I will be posting the picture of the map of the quadrant tomorrow (A quadrant is a four sided area in space. usually used in games to determine borders of the playable area and such). For now, you can know this.

     

    Terms needed:

    -Conglomerate: nation of planets.

    -Interplan: interplanetary police force.

    -Dusk Drive: the 'warp drive'. Uses dusk-space as transportation.

    -Dusk-space: the dimension underlying our own. No light is possible there, therefore there is no universal speed limit. You all can come up with your own explanations.

    -Torp: Torpedo

    More will be added as necessary.

     

    Republic of Sera

    The quadrant's police force and strongest conglomerate. Utilizes Interplan to break up the fighting between the Kial and the Caalin'dal.

    Major planets: Meltrial, Danusk

     

    Kial Hegemony

    A mostly peaceful conglomerate. Only attacks when attacked, and usually by the Caalin'dal.

    Major planets: Rictal, Torryn

     

    Caalin'dal Empire

    A barbaric conglomerate. Uses fear and intimidation as its main weapons. Usually fights with the Kial.

    Major planets: Gaalin'kypa, Mortu

     

    Independents

    Some systems in the Quadrant are independent, and keep to themselves.

    Fildergrad, Pelin, Dosk, Eredimore, Wilt. There are more. I will post them tomorrow.

     

    Quarantine

    Q1 and Q2 are the quarantined systems. Only Interplan may enter, and usually they do in large numbers. A story about a shock trooper fighting, well, whatever it is in those systems could be made.

    A bunch of Vogons come and blow up all the planets for building an intergalactic bypass.

    Seriously, am I the only one getting tired of extremely elaborate game threads?

     As stated, this isn't a game thread. Maybe if the world learned to read, that would be wonderful!

    Because it isn't a game, it's a group project in order to create a book. I think.

     

    Oh yes, of course I shall join as well.

    EDIT: I'm already working on it..

    EDIT2: It is done! But I will post it tomorrow because I'm having trouble moving it from word to here...
