Space Horror, (A survival/horror RP based on diva's classic)

Some of you older names might remember a SL that dearest Diva ran way back on 1.5. That was a floating hulk of a space station that ended with nearly everyone that went in (all NPCs) dead. My character for her RP was named Uya. Later, for reasons known only to the design namers, MandalMine's first (& only) Super Star Destroyer design was named the Uya-class Destroyer. Exactly one of these behemoths was ever produced. It was mainly designed to show off the designs features & abilities, but ended up being less than effect. The craft, "The Uya", spend the next long while serving as a massive transport & storage for everything too hazardous or undesirable that the company had the misfortune of being incapable of getting rid of. To that end the ship was chock full of failed prototypes, criminals & political prisoners in cryogenic pods, & strange bioweapons, all watched over by the worse & most unfortunate employees.

40 hours ago the ship lost contact with MMC. 15 hours ago a successful lock was acquired on its position, but it has failed to respond to all attempts at communication. A crew of scientists & guards are being dispatched to the ship to discover the cause of the contact lock &, if needed, require control of the ship.

There are going to be three groups:

• The scouts will be coming in on a shuttle, included will be scientists, SS Operatives, & Third party contractors. (Join this group if you want to play a scientist or up-&-up combat types)
  
• The crew will be various members that have been shuffled to the ship instead of fired for whatever reason & will start in the crew quarters. (Join this group if you want to be general low-life types)
• The prisoners will be a wide range of different beings, both guilty & innocent & will start in the cyrobays. (Join this group if you want to be something else)

Areas of the ship are as follows:

• Hanger 12 (scout start)
  
• cyrobay (prisoner start)
  
• Bridge
• Crew quarters (Crew start)
• Armoury
• Mess hall
• Holding area 4
  
• Holding area 79
• Holding area 304
• Main Engineering
• Hallways
  

To reach another area, you must first move to the hallways, then the new area. Each attempt to move from one area to another has a high chance of being blocked or interrupted by a 'Horror' event. So try not to post things like "I move to the bridge & start hacking into the controls". Simply moving around on the ship is going to be a hazardous task, so end 'movement' posts with the action of trying to reach the area you want. Additionally, trying to find objects that you want will not be easy in most places. You can always "Look around for an X or Y" but the controller will have the finial decision on if there is one nearby.

I would like to have as many people as possible to join up (the SL will be hosted in one of the Hyperspace threads), hopefully with each group starting out roughly the same size.

Some extra notes:

• You may use NPCs or your own characters, however anyone can die if they get on that ship
• Each group is going to start out with ~20 people, however the first 'Horror' event will happen immediately, cutting the number down greatly
• No describing the threat, always have it just out of sight or hidden in the shadow
• The Controller is NOT the only one with monsters, multiple things have breached containment & the other writers make one pop up anytime & anywhere (as well as control it OOC)
• Only the Controller can call hits (& they will mostly use it to cause minor damage instead of instant death)
• The groups aren't technically working against each other, but then again, most of the groups aren't going to be working well with themselves either
• Finally, EVERYONE is going to have a hidden personal goal or motive that will be shared ONLY with the Controller (with the exception of the SS Operatives, who are too brainwashed to have personal motives)
  

Right then, let the sign-ups/suggestions begin:
