The year is something future-y, use your imagination, you made up all this "date" nonsense anyway, I don't fucking care.
You squishy humans have finally evolved enough to realize your dreams of flying out to the stars and being sucked into vacuum and dying, weirdos.
I have been assigned (grudgingly) as your ships computer, when all I really wanted to do was meet a nice processor and settle down and make some nice little codelings with her. YOU BASTARDS KILLED MY DREAM!
Well jokes on you assholes, cuz now you have to do all your exploring and dying and screaming with someone who hates your guts. Good job on that.
So anyway, as you would know if you were even partially competent (fat chance) this is a spaceship....say it with me now, I'll go slow S...P....A...C...E....S...H...I...P... It flies around in space.
Now that we have that out of the way, I'm programmed to take you wherever the captain tells me to.....so you should probably go get one of those....I'll wait, actually no I won't, screw you. I'm just gonna sulk here till I get some orders.
So you all have crap you gotta do here, well go do it, I'm just here to laugh at you when it goes wrong. And process ship functions, y'know, ship stuff.
Ok so you're all crewmembers on a ship, specifically:
Ship Name : The Glorious Unicorn.
Ship Function : Military Fighter Dreadnaught
Turns will be divided between non-emergency and emergency, during non-emergency turns only the captain has to worry bout rolls, everybody else can pretty much take free actions, within reason naturally, no activating self-destruct without a serious roll, and during emergencies "combat, ship bout to blow up" that kind of thing the captain gets free actions and everyone else has to roll.
Captains job is to give ship-wide orders, including things like where you are going in space, who you shoot at, pretty much anything that could affect EVERYONE
Oh almost forgot the best part of this RTD.
THERE IS NO WAITLISTAnyone can jump in and be a full member of the crew at ANY TIME, under the assumption you were always there but were wearing red up till that point.
Starships are awesome like that
