It is the dawn of the 24th century, and an interesting point in time for the human race. Fifth Age chronicles the dawn (perhaps more like early mid-morning) of humanity exploring the stars and getting into all manner of trouble, fraught with peril, excitement and drama,
Humanity’s first contact with alien life was a violent one, but fruitful. Equipped with the FTL technology of the alien civilization they encountered, humans could have eventually had the stars, but eventually is just never good enough. Pushing the boundaries of the technology, humans have spread farther, faster, than any species in recorded history, to the horror and dismay of other species who see humanity as a cancerous plague infecting the new frontier opened up by the enhanced hyperdrive.
The solar system is divvied up by a smattering of old earth nation states, intent on keeping their grip on power while shadowy secret societies and mega corporations pull strings and manipulate events. Individual colonies might attempt to maintain their sovereignty, but eventually most bow to the will of the League of Starfaring Nations, or sell out to one of the licensed mega-corps.
The thin strands binding together dozens of newly settled worlds and old earth are the spacers, daring starfarers willing to brave the dangers of hyperspace to haul freight, information, and new colonists into the frontier. Thanks to the relativistic time effects of hyperspace, these career spacers will age only a few short years while decades pass on the planet of their birth, meaning they must cast aside their old ties to friends and family, becoming a new type of culture all to themselves. Fifth Age is the story about these courageous adventurers, intrepid explorers and ruthless mercenaries, pushing the light of humanity into the deep darkness, and finding wealth, glory and adventure.
Im looking for a few more players to join in my first game as a DM. We are going to be play a home brew sci fi ver of 5e. The games will be played around the 11pm est. (days still undecided) and look for a mature group of players. (newbies welcome)
I added you on discord but it was rather late and I didn't want to wait so I figured I'd post here
Timezone: US central Age: 30 About me: male (Erik), attended university for political science and have recently returned for history education, have an assortment of varying work and life experience Gameplay/ classes / backstory/ description: willing to flex into what the group needs or is lacking, but have a number of ideas that can be prepared quickly with skill
Honestly I love both rpgs and sci fi and this well prepared homebrew is very exciting and I would love to be a part of it if you had room and/or could fit me in
