Welcome to Orion

[freebitchbaby]

Welcome to Oria Minora, the smallest planet of the Orion group. On day 355 the Egime will land in the trading centre of Verex III, the capital city of Oria Minora. It is famed for its stunning views of the deserts, temples to The Goddess and the universe famous Orion slavegirls that are both trained and sold in the great city itself. The city is a literal oasis in the middle of an arid and unpleasant environment. The city is built into an octagonal shape with a circular main city centre sitting in the middle. Verex III is protected from the harshness of the desert land that it was built on by a protective deflector shield. Exits to the city are closely guarded and not an option of non-citizens. Why would you want to go outside when inside the city is simply so beautiful and full of wonders?

Citizens

Orions are known for their distinctive bright green skin. Orion males are typically bald and, on average, taller and more muscular than the average Human male. Orion females were very animalistic in nature, known for their extreme carnal appetites and their innate skill of seduction. The Orion people tend to dress very scantly, as befitting the desert environment that they inhabit. It is important to note that Orion females have powerful pheromones which cause headaches and fatigue in women and strong sexual urges in men. You can read more about it here. For the purposes of fairness, if you don't want your character to be affected by the Orions' pheromones it has been pre-established that some people are simply immune to them, or conversely for women are affected by them in the more masculine sense. They are a hospitable people and will happily throw huge parties with great feasts for their guests, but make no mistake, they are shrewd tradespeople and will rob you blind if you give them half a chance.

 

Locations

To the North are the temples dedicated to The Goddess. They are beautiful golden buildings with brightly coloured inner chambers all dedicated to the worship of the Orion deities. The North-East corner holds the trading yards where Egime is parked, everything you could have want for from Starship fuel to the finest technology that money can buy is available to you here for a good price or a fair trade. Be on your guard for pick-pockets though. To the East a traveller will find the city's many brothels and companion houses. There's something to suit everybody tastes there from every corner of the galaxy. Public orgies are very common in this district. The South-East is where slaves are held before processing or being sent on to their new owners, it is closely guarded by city guards and visitors will soon be shooed away unless they have intent to buy a slave for themselves. South the common markets that caters to visitors more average needs such as produce and clothing. To the South-West is where the grand palace can be found as well as the grand homes of the citizens that live in Verex III. West caters for visitors who require nourishment and a dirth of bars.  The North-West corner has the fresh Oasis where visitors and citizens alike are invited to bathe and enjoy the refreshing cool waters. The City Centre is where the slave market is held every three hours, right through the day, on the hour.

Events

• Orions are a curious people by nature and very envious. As such, on the morning of Day 356 a group of rich merchants will be sending a group of their slavegirls to come visit the ship. And what does that mean? Nothing other than a boatload of Orion pheromones floating around the ship at full potency. PCs who stay on the ship for more than three hours will be affected by the pheromones and will fall under their control leading them to want to tear the closest person's clothes off and go at it like rabbits.
• Orions have a bad habit of kidnapping people and selling them on for profit. Hold onto your loved ones people because if you don't keep yourself and your friends safe they might just get sold off to a rich Orion prince. However, they'll automatically get pulled back to the Egime after it leaves the planet, so your incarceration shouldn't be for too long.

FAQs:

I don't like the smut plot so can I opt out and what can I do instead?

Absolutely! There's no obligation to be involved in the smut plot at all. It's there if you want to use it but if not feel free just to send your characters around the city and enjoying the many sights to be found!

Does my male/female character have to be affected by the Orion women's pheromones?

No. I leave this in the hands of the player character. If you don't want your character to experience the effect of the pheromones the way typical for their sex then you don't have to. Feel free to nerf the power all together or choose an alternative reaction to the pheromones. People have different brain chemistries, it isn't beyond the realm of belief.

How long are we here?

Three IC days. Day 355 to Day 357.

What happens if my character is kidnapped and sold?

Not too much. Best case scenario is that they get pampered and fussed over like a rather exotic pet. Worst case scenario is that they get put to work cleaning for some Orion clanhouse. It is what you make of it.

I need supplies, what can I get in Verex III?

The common marketplace is the place to go if you're after your hearts desires. It's a little more technologically advanced than most of the cultures that the ship has previously visited. There's everything from clothing, exotic oils and advanced warp tech. Food will be a little more expensive than in other ports as it's a limited resource and they don't get that many human visitors. Basically whatever you want Orions have a guy to get you that thing. At a cost.

Will there be any NPCs that my character can interact with?

Yes! On the third day the Orion slavegirls that come onto the ship will be available as NPCs to talk to! I, Claire, will be running the NPCs so feel free to send me a plurk message or PM if you want something in particular.

Will my vampire characters be affected by the Sun?

Yes! The Orion sun does have UV in it and will affect vampires of the sun-adverse type. However, this isn't much of a worry because Verex III is a 24/7 party city that never sleeps. Shops, bars, brothels are open all hours of the day and night.

My character is a member of Starfleet, can they get in contact with HQ and get everyone rescued? 

Sorry, no! Orion has not yet made contact with the Federation of Planets and would not take kindly to visitors bringing a whole fleet of ships to their front door. For plot purposes, it is the year 2148. Orions have had some contact with other species through trade but are nowhere near being a Federation friendly state.

Will there be a party log or will I just set up my own?

I will set up a log for characters to interact with the Orion slavegirls that come onto the ship on Day 356 but otherwise feel free to set up you own logs.

I have a question you haven't answered! 

Please direct it to the top comment and ask it there so that everybody can see!

[strategic_guile]

LOL now that the even has started suddenly I have questions...!

What kind of food do the Orions like to eat? Spicy? Sweet? Just about anything as long as it tastes good? I think they're going to kidnap themselves a sexy naked chef

Re: Questions/Comments/NPC questions?

[talisamaegyr]

Would it make sense for Talisa to discover that giving in to the desire Robb is feeling alleviates the headache and other affects of the pheremones? They're down in the city now and he's all "grabby grabby" and she's all "crabby crabby" but I had that idea and wanted to make sure it would fly.

Thanks!

[wicked_west]

... Elphie is going to be so confused.

[ishouldcarewhyexactly]

Devon

This one is going to be fun. Can you say young man with very little experience with women and no father while he was growing up dealing with massive amounts of pheromones? Devon is going to be having major trouble keeping control of himself and hiding what's happening (which he seriously can't). He's not going to have any idea how to deal with it and going to be near panic. Who wants to partake in awkward teaching moments?! I'd love for some poor unfortunatemale to help him a bit here, though having a woman nearby could turn even more awkward since he's going to be desperate to get her away before he does something.

Joan

Is generally going to be opting out of the chaos. She'll do some shopping (and I'm going to have some of that be while the slaves are on the ship), but she's going to generally find the place rather distasteful.

Mary

Mary is definitely going to get hit with some pheromones! Preferably the male ones since it doesn't take much for her anyway and she has a lot of making up to do. If anyone is interested in any of that chaos either on or off ship let me know!

[nott_caine]

I'd love for Selene and Devon awkwardness.

[the4united]

He's going to hurt her so bad... not physically of course, but doing everything in his power to get her the hell away from him. That could leave some emotional damage there.

[strategic_guile]

Well, Blaine isn't going to mind hitting up Mary again. He'd love to help her catch up on... things. 8D

Not to mention I like her sarcasm and her taking him to task for his stupidity.

[ishouldcarewhyexactly]

Awesome.

[inlovewiththedarkness]

Charlotte

Will probably spend most of her time in the brothels. Because why not. Sex is wonderful. Probably also get her self some new clothes. May or may not end up on the auction block.


H.G. Wells

Will spend some time in the market acquiring some things for Zoey. Also will be visiting the oasis springs. She will adamantly avoid any of the sexual allure because she has a girlfriend. If she's going to be having sex with anyone, it's Zoey kthxbye.

[somepartsbroken]

Heeey Charlotte, wanna go bar hoping again? He can pass out again while you get it on... again.

[inlovewiththedarkness]

Charlotte approves of this plan!

[somepartsbroken]

BEST trend~

[inlovewiththedarkness]

Definitely! She can give him another bottle of alcohol if he so happens to not have one at that point in time!

[rumchocolatesouffle]

Kurt plotting!

I'm thinking he's going to get kidnapped and probably affected by the hormones. He obviously won't be turning to any women but it could get awkward if he's rescued by any guys.

[strategic_guile]

Blaine Thorps

Is this real life? Is this just fantasy? It's like this world was made for Blaine. He will be up for all the debauchery. He of course will go shopping for supplies to refill the stores of food, spices, lube, and condoms. He might be even quicker to succumb to the pheromones than most. He just gives less than two shits right now and will be losing himself to the pelasures of Orion.

If anyone has any plotting they want to plot with Blaine he's available!

[freebitchbaby]

Gaila

Gaila will be less than happy to be in her old stomping grounds even if they are way before her time! She's going to be sulking about the ship and occasionally going to the temples. But mostly trying to avoid being recaptured.

Glinda

Is getting kidnapped on the first day and save by Elphie. Hit by a full dose of pheromones on the second day and getting royally lost in the city on the third day.

Pasha

Is due some R&R. Will be spending her time at the oasis and trying to find sufficient materials to fix her phaser and build a long range communicator.

[punch_it]

Jane is so pissed on Gaila's behalf. It's funny. Except not. It's really not.

She still wants time with her girls.

[giftedistheterm]

This will be a fun first event for Simon...

He's going to see what he can do to get medical supplies for the infirmary (and maybe some more clothes for himself). The problem is, Simon's pretty close to broke and what little plat he has won't go very far if it's accepted at all. That probably won't go over super well for him, but I hesitate to have him be kidnapped since he's so new and will likely still be low on the CR and it would just be awkward if that happened and no one really noticed...

The pheromones however will absolutely be effective, though Simon will be more likely to remove himself from the situation than 'take advantage'. Still, if you want a hot under the collar doctor to mess with, that can be arranged.

[diana_abel]

I want to throw Diana at Simon so badly. I cannot think of a worse way for them to meet, especially given her latest habit of walking around the ship in her bra and panties.

[giftedistheterm]

That sounds like a good way to make Simon's head explode. Let's say something on the last day when the slave girls will have swarmed all over the ship?

[diana_abel]

Sounds perfect!

[alphaophiuchi]

Draco Malfoy

I'm not planning on doing a whole lot with Draco for the event, but I'm thinking he's going to do some exploring and maybe rescue a couple of people from kidnapping things. No pheromones for him excepting Charles, though! But I'm open to anything else.

Lydia Martin

As of right now, I'm thinking that Lydia is going to end up getting kidnapped (with a handful of other powered individuals) and rescued by Erik and the rest of that crew. So there are some slave-girl antics to be had there! Lydia will probably have some level of pheromone influence on her, and I'm super open to flinging her at people for various antics there as well.

Additionally, she's going to find the time to go shopping and stock up on some much needed solo sexytime things for herself.

If there's anything you want with either of mine, feel free to hit me up!

[katerrifically]

Kate will help rescue you, Lydia.

[fivethreestrawberryblonde]

You're the best, Kate. She loves you.

[notrosesshadow]

Martha:
She will definitely be interested in the technology available on the planet. Shopping. Might be up for pheromone affects.

Elphie:
Mostly she's going to be shocked at all the green people. She also will be saving Glinda from slavery. Pheromones will affect her but not as strongly as most people.

Link:
No real ideas, but I guarentee the tech will be overwhelming, and pheromone affecting could be hilarious.

[tenthlordoftime]

The Doctor He won't be able to resist exploring and basking in all the beauty that the stop has to offer. He might or might not be affected by the pheromones. If anyone wants to do anything just hit me up!

[somepartsbroken]

Dorian WILL be affected and via plurk plotting will make some bad life choices with Glinda.

[lyriumaddict]

James/The Winter Hobo and Cullen here will both be affected by the pheromones. James is just going to assume that he's ill and try to lock himself away, initially. Cullen...is less certain about what he's going to do. Cold shower, prayer, something.

If you want shenanigans, let me know!

[riftmarked]

Awkward shenanigans?

[lyriumaddict]

Oh yes please. It'll be terribly awkward for everyone involved.

[riftmarked]

Tries to help by joking about seeing him in the buff already, just makes everything worse...

BEST PRAY DURING A COLD SHOWER?

[giftedistheterm]

You know I do bb. First meeting in the marketplace with an awkward, pheromone distracted followup on day three?

[lyriumaddict]

It's a date.

[iwasrussian]

I should have the gypsy come looking for him.

..... Wahhaha-/cough

[lyriumaddict]

yes you should

[iwasrussian]

Done. Cue the fun times.
