16 Hours ago five convoys comprised mainly of IDA Frigates And Leviathans Left Earth.
The first left for a strange wormhole sighted in the western Rim of Federation space. After three hours the convoy was destroyed by a rebel task force.
The seccond convoy was destined for Polaris space but while jumping into the system the only leviathan of the convoy had an engine failure. After the ships left hyper space to make the needed repairs and the Massive Leviathans reactor core was breached and the ship exploded Obliterating the entire convoy.
Convoys Three and four met the same unruly fate of convoy two. Thats what you get for flying out-dated ships.

Unlike all of the other convoys the fifth is a moving system of hotels Convoy Number five will be making a round trip throughout The whole of Federation space. The three Leviathans of Convoy #5 (Phoenix, Sparrow and The Beacon) have converted all of their cargo space into Luxury Hotels a couple million rooms, Luxury Diners ballrooms you name it, its there. For protection the fleet has 6 IDA frigates but whatever ships passengers bring will be manned and added to the convoy If (okay with the owner of course) This journey Will be long and Undoubtadely there will be perils along the way.


Enjoy your stay in Convoy #5

"nice little place you got here" i say looking around, "nice to be on the move huh?" speaking to the bartender, who couriously eyes my strange purple ship.
"never seen a ship like that before..." he says
"hehe" i smile "you could say that im not from around here, its called a Zidara"
"um i dont quite understand" he says
"its a long story, just know it is a story full of trechery, love, hate, and palm trees"
"ok" he says clearly not understanding.
"its better if you leave it be"
"now im gonna have a look around, gotta scope out the competition ya know"
with that i turn away from him and walk down the lonly corridores, staring off into space, "so much like home" i say reminicing of my own universe "stop it, stop thinking like that" i say to myself.
will in my thought imersed state i accidentaly knock into someone who seems vaugly familiar " sorry i mumble, and walk back to my ship, and fly back to the 'third universe'

This is the Third day of The Federation tour and Convoy #5 is doing great. The Beacon the most popular of the three Leviathans is getting terrific reactions from the folk in Tichel. As the Convoy Hypers into the system there is a massive battle going on between an Auroran strike force and the Federation defenders. Odly A Vell-os Javelyn is leading the Auroran Attackers. This Vell-os ship slams Directly into The Sparrow one of these Leviathans. The Vell-os ship rips directly through it and makes a jump to hyperspace. The escape pods launch from the damaged Leviathan and the crews of the Convoy panic but the Sparrow heavily Damaged survives.. The convoy docks with the Systems spacedock and repairs the massive leviathan. Within four days The ship is fully repaired and Convoy #5 is Rollin Again!

After the week of helping the people from the Spearow get back to safety, Mindule orders up a hotel suite. There he rests and does nothing for a while.

----------
<several days later>

The convoy gets caught in another Fed/Arouran battle. Mindule gets in his small viper and freeflys for a while, shooting at any missile that happened to come near The Beacon.

"I don't know how much longer I can take all of this..." Dash murmors to himself. He is perhaps one of the few that have decided to remain on the veil unlike his fellow Vell-Os. Its a living he's crafted for himself though, shipping people for the sheer joy of riding in a...well...whatever he feels like driving that week. Sometimes he just makes a tiny sphere and rolls it around into asteroids for fun.
He sits and meditates aboard his small dart. Its his choice though, he wants speed and protection. And the less area he has to concern himself with the better his shields are. It just means he can't focus quite as well...too much energy in such a small space causes a bit of confusion in his mind.

He stands and turns around to watch the approaching federation fleet. They're closing in...
He needs to find a place to hide.

No sooner he thinks that than he sees ahead of him a massive convoy of what looks like to be Leviathans (pffsht...how outdated.) and Frigates...as well as a few independant ships themselves.

Seeing an opportunity when it rises, Dash sits, focuses, and a blinding light expels itself out of the tiny Dart...out of one came four!

Quickly, Dash sets the decoy Dart's path of flight. One is to the beacon, one is to the Sparrow, the other is to fly ahead...to nothingness.

Dash, because of an early admiration for lore, decided to land on the Phoenix.

That easily split the persuing Federation fleet into four ways, that makes it easier to dodge the authorities...

For a desguise, he quickly and surgically singes his hair into a now modern, yet somewhat bizarre, style so that he can blend in...
...
now to only see if it works...

"Yes, I'd like to know how I can work as an escort. The perks seem nice, but is there any pay at all?" Rawzer asks the receptionist near the airlock.
"Fill out this form please. There is a small salary, but the most benefit comes from the free room and board."
"For all my crew, too?"
"Yes."
"Cool." Rawzer fills out the form, and is told to wait about an hour for processing. Soon, he is given an ID card as an official Convoy #5 escort. His two Fed Carriers and Manticore should serve the fleet quite nicely. The next day he sells the Manticore and a Carrier to upgrade his flagship. It is now faster. And it has some FPTs.

Convoy #5 has safely made it through a bunch of attacks unfortunately 2 IDA Friagates have been destroyed The Flagship "Excelsior" is raising the offering prices for Escorts.. Convoy #5 has gotten into a minor problem with the Bureau and major defence will be needed. Or the Convoy will split up and dump all passengers where they can find their way home.

His ears perk up as he is sipping a premier glass of water from earth...a rare commoditiy...as he hears the call over The Phoenix's speakers for all ready and able pilots to report for duty. Especially when the Bureau is mentioned...

He decides to head over to the officers' rooms...

So this is what? A semi RPG/bar? I have an idea you might like. Make it a detailed listing of the events that happen on it, with a basic plot of the day set by you, and then everyone lists their day following said plot, with things happening around the ship they're in and the entire fleet. Just a passing suggestion.I would give an example, but I need my sleep...
Good luck.

A strange man in a grey cloak walks by and stumbles. He hits the ground hard and manages to hobble over to your location. However you pay him little attention as you are watching an episode of something called "Love boat."

*This is the Ring of Glory Requesting Permission to board over*
*This is the Phoenix would you like our special travel plan? It's only 15,000 cr!*
*sure I'll Take It*
*You have permission to board the Phoenix. your room is number b34978. A map of the ship is being downloaded to your ship's computer for your convenience. Thank you for traveling with Convoy 5*

A Mod Starbridge boards the Phoenix, and 20 heavily armed Auroran officers jump throught the hatch. A savagely-tatooed man says "We'll be right back!" They rush to the bathroom. After they come out, they are arrested by more heavily armed ship officials.

-[Hello, Stinger! This is The Beacon. We have a spot open for four people in our holds. The rating is 120,912cr per week. What do you say?]-
-[Sure, we'd love it. If its of any importantce, we and our ship can be hired for escort duty to protect this convoy...]-
-[We'll consider it. Beacon out.]-

On the 5th week of the voyage, the Three ships pass Nesre Primus and the Beacon is attacked by Free Traders. The damge is mild, but the ship is still evavacuated. The Beacon is repaired by some friendly Rebels and the convoy is underway!

ummm guys, i hate to say this, but there is only supposed to be one bar at a time, because of there nature to continue to acumulate posts untill the web board is overflowing, since a moderatore could come in at any minute, i suggest you dont get too attached, sorry 'shutup',but they gotta have rules right?
