    This is a proposed series of events involving 3-4 "main" characters, the events will take place on one planet and be presented in an episodic format. Aside from the 3-4 "main" characters, there will be many openings for NPCs to help shape and guide the story. The NPC players will be given vague instructions on their role in the episode, though the story is meant to be entirely open ended and is planned to change via events during each episode.

    The NPCs will need to be presented to the DM to clear that they fit the role properly before the episode starts. These NPCs would not automatically be throwaway characters, but as the story goes, anything can happen, including the deaths of the so called "main" characters.

    The story will have a vague goal established that is entirely subject to change in the story as it progresses. The number of episodes is also entirely unwritten currently, as it will be for as long as the story can possibly continue or until it reaches an end goal. Please note that it's entirely possible for all the main characters to die and have the story picked up by NPCs instead. If the story is at a point in which there is no logical continuation, it will simply end.

    The story is currently proposed to be entirely flexible and built to fit with the characters and events. Any items procured by characters during the story would be found-bought-stolen in/from containers/people. All obtainable items will have descriptions set with Starcheat and/or SBSE describing specific use and guidelines.
