Coup D'etat - Session 06 - "Silver Leaves"

The market of the capitol city of Upbow is bright and vibrant. HiveBots man the street, working alongside biological workers to keep the city's basic services running. Tourists, travelers, and shoppers walk the streets lined with open-air cafes. It's at one of these cafes that The Infiltrator is meeting one of his contacts with The Infuser's Alliance.

The Infiltrator's contact within The Infuser's Alliance tells him that his father was taken to be recruited for a scientific project. They can't discuss what he worked on, but during a routine transfer of material and personnel for security reasons, his ship was attacked by the KAMATA-Sci, an organization within the KAMTAS which focuses on advanced scientific research. As the two dominant scientific powers in the galaxy, The Infusers' Alliance and the KAMATAS have a long-running shadow war to stay on the forefront of technological progress. The contact can't tell Al much more because the Infusers believe that KAMATA-Sci is on the verge of a major discovery. One that could shift the balance of power in the galaxy. He says they're preparing an op on the base within a few weeks and information is at a premium. After a suspiciously small amount of prodding, he mentions they'd rather send a small, specialized force instead of the Aarenst Wing, but there isn't a unit familiar enough with the technology or the area.

Coup D'etat - Session 05 Prelude - The Oncoming Storm

Part one of two for a general update of the galaxy.

Free Alliance

The Pris have deployed two task forces to destroy the rebels once and for all. The FA has protested and there have been shots fired between the two sides. With the datacore destroyed on board the Malice, the odds are slim they could ever find the rebel base.

Meanwhile, reports of revolution are coming in from the inhabited moon of Kastulas V. According to a Pris intelligence report, the common people of the planet have risen up and toppled the ruling power. The actions are described as peaceful and centered around a rapid growth of never before seen trees with silver leaves. The reports cease shortly thereafter.

Collaborative Campaign Setting: Coup D'etat, Part I

We're doing a new RPG, a Mutants and Masterminds game currently codenamed "Coup D'etat." In order to make sure everyone knows the general layout of the setting, we jammed together early--fucking early--Sunday morning to hammer out the foundations of the setting. It went really well and we got a lot of good information. Below are the results:

Geography

-T's Hellworld – Inhabitable

-J's character comes from a planet on a rimward sector.

-T: Lunar station orbiting his home plant

-D. Spartan nomad. Totally has a home planet.

-R's character: Shipborn. His whole life.

-Space Voice: Finding it in an old, neglected area or something.

-The ship itself and its geography.

-Our headquarters: Space Voice leads them to the headquarters. Abandoned because no one else gets it to work. Base on an overlooked planet in a busy solar system.

-"Serious Nebula" – Base of operations or home for one or more species. With planets with species.

-"Variety"

-Timeworld for teleporters' home.

-Worlds with specific resources with difficulties concerning extracting those resources

-Primitive natives vs resources

-Shapeshifters are from a specific planet. There are less sentient ones. They find new resources and leverage to get more from those resources. 

-The empty sector
