Discoveries
DISCOVERIESBecause what's interstellar travel without a little exploration? Welcome to our discoveries page! Here players can try to glean extra tidbits, information, or locations from the current chapter. Please remember that exosuits do not store any information made through discoveries save for basic map data, and all chances of success/fail are determined by RNG. Discoveries are divided into three tiers: locations, FFR (Flora, Fauna & Resources), and item properties.
These are expedition-based. This means that in order for them to happen players must OOCly arrange an IC expedition for their characters to go out & explore on their own. Once you have plotted a course with the intent to thread & play out their trips, we will provide you with all the relevant information of what they will see, find, and discover! These discoveries are much more in-depth and count as a player plot which means it is up to players oocly to organize, and must be approved by the mods first. Characters may only investigate (1) location or direction at a time and are guaranteed a success. Examples of discoveries which can be made in this category are:
Discoveries in this category are search-based and much simpler. Players only need to submit the general area in which their characters is searching & for how long in order to determine what can be found in any given (discovered) area on the map. This means you cannot search an area if characters haven't been there before. The soft rule is that they need to be able to reach it on foot with limited supplies. FFR discoveries have a 30% chance to fail and return results such as "You found rocks!". Examples of discoveries which can be made in this category are: These discoveries are interaction-based. Once a resource, item, or species has been added to the Flora, Fauna & Resources page, all players can choose to have their character(s) interact with it to learn more about it. These discoveries require a short write-up of how the character will be investigating the desired object or creature, and have a 15% chance to fail. Characters can only investigate (1) object or species at a time. Examples of discoveries which can be made in this category are: If you would like to make a discovery please fill out the appropriate form with "DISCOVERY TIER: #" in the subject line: Tier 1: Location Discoveries Tier 2: FFR Discoveries Tier 3: Item Properties Discoveries | |

Sure thing! Just let us know if you need any sort of write-ups.
Journey:
We travelled. It was we could do. Our homes were lost among the stars and hope had left us all...until The Atlas spoke. Through it we would find salvation. Through it we would find a way home. Through it we would find c
The rest is too broken to read, worn away by time.
Seek the Atlas:
The Travellers came from beyond our moons to seek the divine Atlas. They are its hands. Its mouth. They speak with Atlas' tongue and impart its will. Through them we now peace. We know hope. We beg them to stay yet still they must search and wander on their pilgrimage to the almighty Atlas. We will give them our treasure and beg the Atlas' blessing. We will help them find The Atlas.

Lance and Clark are officially on the hunt for more of these wordy monoliths--may we get the other three stories (Travellers, Last, Overseers), please?

They search for the promise of The Atlas without cessation. They claim to be its nomads: never can they stay in one place, for they must find that which they seek at all costs to Right what is Wrong.
Last:
re all that is left. Once many they are now few. This will be their last pilgrimage, for none sought by the Blue Stone can escape once they have decided your worth. Almost all of the T (the message becomes too damaged to read until further down:)
e can only hope that we will not be Forgotten.
Overseers:
They descended from the great sky above without warning and rained fire down upon us. Their armies of blue stone destroy all that The Travellers have touched. Momuments, creatures, our people. The Overseers will stop at nothing to era
