First star to the left, and straight on 'till morning.
Space. The Final Frontier
These are the voyages of the Starship…Enterprise.
Her ongoing mission, to explore strange new worlds. To seek out new lifeforms, and new civilizations. To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before!
And you've signed onto this wagon train to the stars. Better pray your shirt isn't red.
Here's the deal, in this episode we open on you posting your character into the meme, with their name, canon, and preferences. Then you go and tag other people's character, using the RNG to determine what the main conflict of the episode will be. Then load your phaser, hike up your miniskirt, and prepare to set course the adventure at warp speed!
1) Klingons off the starboard bow! - Those pesky Klingons/Cylons/Stormtroopers/Reavers/Drakh/Zeon/Space Orks/ect. are coming in hot, and they look like they're ready for a fight. Better get the shields up, or if not, then deal with any boarding parties. And what do you do if your characters are on opposite sides?
2) Show the Prime Directive where to shove it - You've found a planet, perhaps it's a gangster planet, a nazi planet, or just some super primitive death world full of really sexy locals that the stupid computer won't let touch. One way or another, you're going to try to fix what's wrong, and damn the consequences. Alternatively, maybe *you're* the natives, and now you have to deal with these weird aliens in their easily torn shirts and very short skirts coming down and making a mess.
3) Always wanted to punch Genghis Khan in the face - Whelp, you're in trouble now. Some aliens have decided to try to figure out the nature of good and evil, or just want to settle a war with a little one on one combat. Either way, you're trapped on this planet, and you need to fight it out with whatever you have on hand. Maybe you're a team trying to beat up the giant reptile monster or real holographic simulated Evil Lincoln, or maybe you two are each champions for one side or the other, and must battle each other to decide the fates of your crews.
4) What is this thing you call kissing? - Either you really don't know because it's not part of your culture, or you just really want to make out with the cute spaceship captain, but either way you want to find out what kissing is from a sexy alien, and the other person tagging is happy to help.
5) Alien spores, ain't they a kick in the kreplach - While on an away mission you've been infected by something, and it's making you act highly irrational. Maybe you're feeling extremely drunk, perhaps super paranoid, or maybe all you want to do is have fun, but you're OOC, and things are gonna get messy.
6) City on the Edge of Forever - You just found a gate that can send you anywhere in history, and your friend whose drunk/crazed/stupid/really drunk, just jumped through and did something that threatens to totally undo your present and destroy time as you know it. Now you need to go back in time and set right what once went wrong. Just be prepared, the price might be steeper than you expect.
7) Trials and Tribblations (can't blame me for that pun) - Tribbles. They're cute, they're fuzzy, their coos sooth the soul, and they're born pregnant. Someone apparently didn't do a background check on the breeder, and now these little trilling bastards are all over the ship. Just how do you plan to deal with them, before they eat you out of a ship?
8) Pon Farr - It's that time of the year again, the time when you need to mate…or die. In the meantime you're going to be hyper aggressive, and utterly determined to get your mate, even if you have to fight your best friend for him/her/ect.
9) Freaky Friday…IN SPACE - You're investigating a alien planet, when suddenly someone knocks you out and shoves you into some strange machine. When you wake up, it's not just in a strange place, but in a strange body too! Now you have to figure out how to get used to this new body, while also getting your old body back! Hey, hands off the merchandise.
10) Laughing at the superior being - Someone has taken over your ship, possibly a charismatic yet cruel dictator from another time, or maybe a alien warrior, or perhaps even the ships computer itself! But not Ferengi using Klingon ships. That's just silly. Anyway, you aren't going to let anyone take your ship, and luckily, you know the Enterprise better than anyone. Time to get your girl back.
11) Doomsday Amoeba Cloud - There's something out there in the dark of space, something very big, very powerful, and very hungry, and it's destroying every world in it's path. Now you need to figure out a way to stop it, before it turns it's sights on the Federation.
12) He is a god! False god. Dead false god - Whelp, it was bound to happen. You managed to find yourself a being who claims to be an honest to goodness deity, and it's enjoying using its massive powers to ruin your day. How do you outsmart a god? Possibly by pissing it off.
13) The Next Generation - Choose your own scenario, only the rules are more consistent, the uniforms a bit less sexist, and the solution more varied than 'kiss it, punch it, trick it into killing itself.' How will you handle this bold new world, where no one has gone before?
