    Yo.

    You know what I'm real sick of, yeah? I'm sick of all these big guys in the galaxy tellin' me what I can and can't do. I'm a bigshot in armor, you can't eat that rice! Or whatever. Galaxy fulla' punks with limp dicks and a whole big pile of overcompensation. Shoutin' orders down from on high while their lockstep armies spittle at their boots.

    I found my jackpot recently, but I ain't gonna cash it into these creeps. Nah. Antares needs a place where the guy with the biggest ship isn't by default the guy who everyone has to fall all over to get shit down.

    Tha's why I'm givin' it to you, galaxy. It's nothin' but it's gonna be made into something. Zero fer now, but a zillion later.

    [​IMG]

    Zero is built on the back of a massive capital ship of some sort. Crashed or dumped ages ago 'long with the rest. Plenty of other ships floating around in orbit or smashed elsewhere. A scrapman's dream come true. A ship graveyard.

    So that's a pretty picture, but why should ya come to Zero when you can park at any of the other colonies in the galaxy? Here is is plain and simple:

    Zero is:

    Politically Neutral: Factions members can show, factions can build embassies if they like, but if they try to make this place boring with their rules and regulations? Or take their pissing contests to our back yard? They can fuck right off.

    Government Regulation Free
    : No rules. Better than having to get something cross-signed in triplicate if you want to sneeze

    Free to build or stay
    : I've renovated at least one old wreck that torpedoed into the ship Zero's restin' on the back of for use as livin' quaters. I'm sure with a little bit panache we could manage others. There's plenty of materials from every species lyin' about just waitin' to be reused to build whatever you like. No restrictions. No taxes. No salmon shit.

    Large: Plenty of room for you to build your dream project, with all the fixin'. We got runnin' water and electricity from the wreck's generators.

    Accessible: The old wreck we're sittin' on is built with a good old proper skyrail transit system. Wherever you are in the city limits, that transit line'll take you to your place in practically no time.

    Aphot's Rest Bar and Grill: Best sushi, best drinks, best times, forever happy!*
    *Does not serve Bloody Puss, Meatwine, or any other traditional Floran Drinks

    Sign me right the fuck up. Somewhere to kick back where I'm not freezing my fucking ass off or forced to time warp back to the fuckin' stone age.
    Sounds bitchin.

    1. I don't know how to make it, pal.
    2. It's made with blood.
    3. Ew to above statement.
    4. Ewwww.
    5. Longstanding whole 'Hlyotl/Floran rivalry' shebang.

    If you don't like it make your own damn bar. I won't stop ya. Plenty of scrap. Lotta dead ships. At least a few gotta be Floran patchjobs. If not, find some soil that ain't tainted and grow one of your damned trees.

    ((If you wanna keep with the theme, keep with the theme, I won't object. Othewise it was designed to have as neutral color palette as I could possibly manage.

    Build what you want that you think would be cool. If you want to build a dojo, build a dojo. If you want a treehouse build a treehouse and make it look like thee tree is growing out of the hull. or whatever. I tried to show at least some of the potiential variety in what I built.

    This is not just a salvage scrap place, but a salvaged scrap place filled with junk from every species scrap so go nuts.))

    Interest. Perhaps I will stop by. Nostalgic. It has been much too long since I last visited a scrapyard, let alone a shipyard!

    A colony without rules? Have fun with the constant gunfights, there are a lot of dicks out there in the galaxy, from a colony leader to another, I can only wish you good luck.

    Fine, I'll be the logical, cynical one.

    How exactly do you plan to stop one of those factions you passively-aggressively disdain from coming in and acquiring the place?

    Hell, you don't even have a militia. Not one single person to stop someone from storming in and taking it.

    Define "no rules." I'm pretty sure that the literal, word-by-word interpretation of this is "do whatever the fuck you want, with no one to shoot you if you start fuckin' around. Murder, rape, steal.'s all good, right? If that's what it really is, then anybody right in their right fuckin' mind outta stay the fuck away. 'less you got something to hide, 'course.

    Now don't get me wrong, I make a living dealing with people like that. If it is what it claims to be, I might even have to stop by, some time. Shake someone up myself. Might even feel good.

    This seems interesting, I might open a restaurant and call it "Aqua".
