DM Salsa Presents: The Black Velvet Blues (Inactive)

Game Master AdamWarnock

A band of misfits trying to make a dishonest living smuggling...

assuming they can avoid killing each other first.


The Setting!
The Big Troubles:
1. A Government Official, Althea Blackwell, that fell from grace due to the actions of the crew is out for revenge.
2. The Government is working on some top secret project and one of the downsides is new sensors for the customs ships.

The Political Starscape
The Federal Republic of Terra: While it is possible that the Federal Republic of Terra, or more commonly, the Terran Federation, TF, FRT, or the Big Fart, was actually a republic at some point in history, many historians discount it as a myth steeped in the hopeless idealism that humanity wasn't always so petty and corrupt. Spanning over 500 lightyears, the FRT is the single largest polity in human history, and has the corruption, the military, and the industrial base to match.

-There are a few nations that are big enough to give the central power pause. These nations are centered on systems well away from the influence of the central power.
Coming Soon!

-A multitude of smaller confederacies and single system polities lie in the gulfs between the larger states
Coming Soon

-There is a mysterious fleet of nomads rumored to be all sorts of things, from aliens to a Zuthran cult. All anyone knows for sure is you don't wanna screw with them. Naturally, the central power denies the existence of such a fleet. Seasoned spacers don't listen to that crap and call them the Voidwalkers, or the Voiders if a little too drunk or lazy.
Coming Soon
