The machines whirr and buzz, different systems turning on, the top of the stasis beds slide off as the occupants awake, 150 men and women awake to face what ever planet was selected them. A group of people assemble on the bridge, the few members entrusted with the survival of this colony, but the flight was not a smooth one. The engine can not be slowed down, you are going to crash, but where?

Before you decide you must remeber who you are.

Skill: Heavy Machinery

[Elfeater]

Come on just a few more people guys

[Elfeater]

Trifies look at the control board, as his fellow leaders are shocked, the situation looks grim, you are speeding quickly towards the surface. You look at the planet, and see a plain before you, with a handful of lakes, mountains in the distance, and and woods scattered about, the planet looks habbitable, if you survive this.

What do you do?



More players can join, 4 spots open for now.

I'll give it a try. My average posting times will be what ever your time is now to +5 hours. Hopefully I can post enough. How much time will a turn be?

Name: Jorund Garr (You can go by first name)
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Skill: Electrical Engineer
Aperance: A young blonde man with an fit average build. He keeps cleanly shaven and his hair cropped.
Bio: An engineer who made a career as an engineer without borders. He spent most of his time helping developing (towns/ spaceships/spacestations/colonies - whatever applies to the setting) before he took the mission. When he heard of the opening he jumped at the chance to adventure out.


Jorund grabs the intercomm "All crew, All crew, prepare for emergency re-entry and landing!"
Turning back to his fellow leaders, "I guess we land this thing.. extending landing gear. -Insert whoever pilots this thing- try for the flatest field near a small river or wherever you think won't tear us apart."

[Strife26]

Trifes will mostly keep his peace, let the guys who actually know how best to take a deep-space vessel down in a crash take the thing down. Proceeding to the crash positions on the bridge'd be a smart idea too, so he'll do that.

"What's ever in your best judgement for minimum loss of equipment and personel. Not that tough to move us around once we're down."

[Elfeater]

The trio of you reacts quickly, sitting the pilot down in the seat, you direct him towards a decent looking spot. As Trifie goes towards the crash position, he notices something strange in the wiring...  You hear the crew bustling to get into a safe position behind you.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

A turn will vary depending on what is happening, turns in the future may be a week or so once you have the colony set up, but then when  an event happens it will be a shorter one like therse are.

[Strife26]

"Ahhh, shit . . ."

With the shit drawn out and half mocking, Trifes heads to take a quick look at the wiring. He never could leave well enough alone, especially when all he should be doing is hunkering down and hoping not to die.

[Deny]

"Well this has gone smoothly" Darius walked over towards the controls calmly, well, as calmly as one can when falling through space towards a possibly painful death. "The most vital thing is that we make sure the people and cargo are safe when we land, the ships saftey must come second, it's no good landing if we don't have the reasources to survive, is there any way we can shift the people and cargo into a more secure and fortified room on this ship?'

[Eagle_eye]

Name: Aaron Boone
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Skill: Nanotech
Appearance: Of average height and slight build. He has long, wavy brown hair and a short beard. His eyes are a piercing green color. He habitually wears jeans and casual shirts, and carries a small e-book loaded with a number of technical manuals and an encyclopedia.
Bio: He has trouble with personal relationships, seeming cold and distant. He recently received his PhD for work on nanoscale fusion, and has accompanied the colony to investigate the possibility of nanobot based terraforming.

[Elfeater]

Trides can tell that the wires have been rerouted, they have cut of control to the engine. He look around and finds that the only accesible power supplies are the warp, communications, or life support wires...

As Darius tries to gain control of the situation, he hears over the intercom that the majority of the people are safe, and ,most of the supplies as well.

The pilot is having difficulty steering towards the spot, instead he is heading for a large forest, a lake seems to be a few miles away, but everything is happening to quickly for you to be sure.

[Immortal]

I run over and quickly begin helping Trifes rewire from the warp drive to the engine control "I doubt warp is much help if we blow the ship up."

[Deny]

"Whats wrong with the steering, get us to that lake, hurry!" Darius quickly runs over to the pilot and starts shouting in his ear.

[Elfeater]

As Trifes and Darius waork to get power back to the main engines, the pilot succesfully gets closer to the lake. a cheer comes up from the wiring area, and the engines get back time, enough to soften the "landing" a bit. As you climb out of the ship you quickly access the situation, trifes has suffered a broken arm due to being thrown around in the wiring area, while Darius sprained his ankle. The majority of the colonists are uninjured, but 13 have broken bones and 2 died in the crash. You landed about 3 miles from the lake, and a mile from the woods.
So now what?
