Rules for Role-Play

[Challenger #001]

Well I've been a bit busy of late, but as I've told F.E.I.S.A.R. over Private messages, I've been working on a possible RP for everyone that would allow people to RP in the WipEout universe without disturbing too much canon. It's a rough idea at the moment, but here's what I've drawn up:

Subject: JX350

My fellow colleagues and associates.

My congratulations once again go out to all of you for helping the opening ceremony of the FX500 league at Talon’s Junction go ahead without a hitch. Aside from one or two of our number who couldn’t hold their drink, the affair was civil and polite and our sponsors enjoyed it immensely. My congratulations to you all.

While my colleagues are busy with the organisation of the fascinating new season of FX500, I would request that your attention remain somewhat on the past, in particular the successful FX200 and FX250 seasons in which Auricom and AG-Systems claimed world championships.

As it is well known, the FX200 and FX250 ships that were used in that season have been used to train new pilots in the JX200 for several years now, from the initial opening ceremony of FX300 to now, producing such talented pilots as Gabrielle Zuzovnitch, Tara Shannon, Morgan Victius, Park-So-Gun and most recently Ishak Bin Yusof.

But their ships are old now, and safety standards must be maintained. Thus it is that with the close of the FX400, I am proud to announce the beginning of the Junior FX350 league, or JX350 as it will be known for short. It will be the FX350 league again, though the competitors will be of lower skill – this is to earn their place in the major leagues, to take over as new pilots when the established teams re-shuffle.

Bin Yusof took the championship for Harimau Cadets last year ahead of Van-Uber's De Gautet, and Harimau International have pledged to run three ships in this year’s tournament, all of which are genuine ships raced in the FX350 league. All existing teams in the FX500 league are entering in different strengths, with other teams and privateers entering for the remaining spots. I have included a list of the teams and spaces available – please reply as soon as you can if you know any teams willing to fill the final spaces, and any pilot applications. Remember, we need a full 36 pilots for the season.

The idea is that you can choose a team to fly for, and when you're online playing against other RP-ers, you'd use that ship in either Pure or HD, alternatively outside of races, you simply post here. There will be a seperate thread for characters and teams, if you have your own you'd like to play as to replace one of the Privateers.

I've chosen to play as De Gautet for Van-Uber, which admittedly limits me if my version of Pure doesn't work... but if people are willing to accept a replacement for playing me online on HD, I have no worries about that. Because FX300 and 350 ships are being used, that's HD craft only, no Furies.

I'll add a track list if there's further information, as well as how the race weekend will go.

Any thoughts?
