IMPORTANT NOTE: This will be my first NRP, ever. I will not be surprised if this doesn’t take off as I imagine it will, but I did enjoy writing this. So if I get mainly positive feedback, I will start posting these weekly on Fridays. This’ll hopefully allow both a fun NRP guaranteed weekly, and I’ll gradually become better at creating and running them.
In the year 2150, Earth was running out of its precious resources at a dangerous rate. Fortunately, the mass consumption of the planet’s resources had not gone un-noticed, and a solution was made. Earth would be abandoned, and left to become what it once was before civilized life began. An organization called ‘The Grand Republic of Earth’ was founded and began constructing large ships, able to hold thousands of people and supplies. These ships would travel the galaxy at light speed, each heading to a designated planet, which is potentially habitable. Some ships would arrive to their destinations in months, years, decades, and some, wouldn’t even make it at all.
Your ship has finally reached its designated planet after twenty three years after leaving the surface of the Earth. Now, as the leader, it is up to you to bring your colony to greatness. It’ll be up to you whether or not you seek trade and alliances with other colonies, or wage intergalactic war with them, and take all they have. Keep in mind, however, there are now many more dangers than just other colonies, you are in an entirely new place, and it’ll be up to you, if you survive.
Starting out, the ship you arrived one can be used as shelter, and has enough food and water to last you 20 turns. You are given enough supplies to build a starting foundation of your colony. You are also given drills, weapons, construction vehicles, and one small, unarmed space craft that’ll be able to travel to other colonies quickly. {This and more will be repeated before the RP begins}
Some things you may want to know about;
The Grand Republic of Earth: They too, have left the surface of the Earth, but instead of finding another planet, they orbit Earth, protecting it. They have several large space stations surrounding the planet, and will attack on sight if they believe you are trying to land on the planet’s surface. We’d advise not toying with them for a while.
The Zorachs: We do not know where these reptilian looking creatures come from, or what they want. However, we know they are hostile and have already devastated several colonies and obliterated dozens of colonist ships before they arrived to their designated planet. At any time, these creatures could find, and attack your colony.
Colony Sheet: Name of Planet: Name of Colony: Colony’s Population: Colony’s Military: Goals: Laws: Describe the planet: (Detail, what resources does the planet have, any mountain ranges, where is the colony located?)
Colony’s Leader: Name: Age: Appearance: Bio: Family: Strongpoints: [Max 3] [Everything above IS required, you cannot skip them]
Rules: 1: Only I will accept Nation Sheets, unless an admin is assigned. 2: You cannot have an OP colony right off the bat, you must build up to it. 3: No god-modding or power playing. If caught, you will be given either a warning or exiled from the RP. 4. In laws, list one as ‘Taking in a Zorach is punishable by death.’ 5: Everything takes time. Example, Sends hunting party five miles from colony. [Will return in 6 turns] 6: We’ll go in order. Who goes when will be decided on the first posts of each participant. 7: I’ll give people 8 hours IRL to post, after that, I will post telling the next person to go. This is meant to keep the RP going. People who are skipped will lose their turn until their next turn, but if they are doing something, like building or researching, the turn will count towards it. 8: Be patient, some people can’t sit at their computer all day. People will be skipped, I guarantee it. 9: After 10 consecutive skips, the Zorach’s will come and destroy your colony, unless you PM me a reason why you aren’t able to post, in that case, we’ll remove you from the order, but whatever you are building or researching will continue. I will even watch over whatever you may be reaching or building for you until it is finished. You will be able to jump back in as soon as notifying the group of your return, and waiting until your next turn. 10: I will not accept Colony sheets that are rushed, and not thought out. I will simply say denied and will not go on, just simply leave, or try to make it better and find your mistakes. 11: If it’s not in the rules, do not use that as an excuse. Rules also may be applied as we go. 12: The Zorachs and The Republic of Earth will be controlled by me. I will also control disasters, i.e. meteor shower. 13: We start when I give the go ahead. 14: The RP will be shut down after 15 days of no one posting. 15: Good luck and have fun, you colonist, you.

Describe the planet: The planet is similar to Earth, except it is 80% covered in water, 20% of land. It is also about 5% bigger than Earth. There are two large continents, one called Ioshonoe, with a dominating mountain range called the Leivius Range, which stretches with mountains 20,000 feet high on Earth. The continent has some small plains and has a giant lake about the size of Lake Victoria in Africa. The second continent, called Chufatov, is a mixture of desert and ice. There is a small mountain range with mountains about 5,000 feet high on Earth, called the Shion Range. There is a couple small lakes about the size of Turkana.

Bio: Elizabeth grew up on Earth herself, and was nervous about Earth dying out. Luckily, she was allowed to board one of the ships from the Grand Republic at age 10, and she went to a planet, named Botraus. She knew that every planet here was inhabitable, so she hoped that they would make it. 23 years after in the air, she was made the leader after she did some heroic acts to help the ship make it to the planet. Now, she's the leader of the colony of Spabalia, and wants peace with all the colonists.
Family: Her brother, who went to a different planet, and her parents, who also went to a different planet.
Strongpoints: Can easily invent new technology, knows about space, smart. |

| I forgot to add while making this, that I will not have a beginning colony. I will be controlling the actions of the The Grand Republic of Earth, and The Zorachs at the end of each turn. Natural disasters will occur when I see fit. |

@Damaging; An NRP is a Nation Roleplay. Each can be different, I guess, but in this one, you try to colonize a planet. In doing this, you must build essential buildings to keep your people alive, mine for resources, and conduct trade or wage intergalactic war with other colonies, once you have made the ships that are fit to do so. The key is survival, the things I listed are only a few of the many steps that need to be taken to have your colony thrive.
@Wolf, I am willing to give you one more try. Clearly you rushed the sheet, and didn't carefully read everything I wrote. I do NOT want the first page filled with attempt after attempt of you trying to make a decent sheet. Just read everything carefully, take your time on the sheet, put detail into it, read through your sheet again and make sure that any vital mistakes are fixed. Most importantly though, read through the RULES. There are three spaces left, you have time. |
