Dustin Cliffstone is a mercenary who doesnt often work long term contracts and who has made a decent living for himself. He is pragmatic and honest with a level of cunning and creativity that would make one think he’s a scoundrel with a penchant for recklessness if they didn’t know him well enough. He prefers to be over prepared because he finds coming up with a plan on the fly that works a thrilling experience. He hunts pirate and escorts ships from place to place more than anything. His experiences with cargo or spice runs has not been good, so he avoids them whenever he can. He loves his ship and his guns and he tries to build everything himself if he can help it. He does not go out of his way to work with others but has no issues with doing so. He comes from a world that has become half nature and half industrial forge world as a result of wars that nearly tore it apart. His father is an officer within a larger fleet who finds Dustin both endearing in his ambitions and frustrating in his ‘rebellious’ attitude to rules and regulations despite the fact his father, Trent Cliffstone, knows Dustin has done a good job at not breaking any of them, yet. Dustin’s mother, Saiva Cliffstone, is an administrator over a company that specializes in ship modifications. She is overprotective of her children, and though she knows how capable her family is it has never stopped her from wanting to keep them close and safe by her side. Dustin’s brother, Clay Cliffstone, is a salvager who collects and recycles abandoned ships. He is enthusiastic about a good haul and is almost always asking Dustin or his sisters about a time to hang out. Dustin’s sisters, Isa and Maivania Cliffstone, are both Merchants and both of them find Dustin reckless, if not a little cute for trying so hard to make a name for himself. They are supportive of their family but love drama and watching people, especially other merchants/clients, squirm under their cunning and stunning beauty.

GOAL & MOTIVE

Dustin wants to earn enough on pirate hunts and scouting contracts to build and outfit a ship entirely to his own specifications. He’s driven to prove he can make his own way without breaking the rules—or being kept safe under his family’s wing—while still having a home and crew worth returning to.

WORLD & RULES

Magic and Technology are interwoven to make mechs and star flight possible. This is a galaxy of teeming with resources, piracy, mercenaries, infighting, diplomatic negotiations and disputes, and technological races in every field imaginable. People are often straightforward about their intentions because time is money and good things don’t come to those who are to late to claim it. Starships and mechs and their specs are often the talk of the town if it isn’t about life or a good fight. Most complain about market prices but buy anyways. Trust is earned and propriety is spent when all hell breaks loose and bonds are forged in the most unlikely of places. Law and order dominate most of the galaxy but each great power will have very different opinions about what those two words mean. There is no shortage of drama of to hear about or be apart of.

HISTORY & EVENTS

Races info: - Beast-kin or Dragon-kin (Beastfolk): They have two forms, humanoid forms that have human faces and bodies with tails, ears, horns, claws, patches of scales or fur, or whatever beast they are ‘kin’ of. Examples are Cow folk, Wolf-kin, Cat Folk, Bird Folk, bear-kin, squirrel-kin, raccoon-kin, Deer folk, Lamia, Scylla, and others The Galaxy is ruled by 9 main factions: - The Almanite Rebuplic (Technocrats rules by several powerful and wealthy known as the Alminate Ministorum who see infighting amongst corporations and company’s amongst their own as ‘healthy competition’) - The Deltoran Coalition (Human, cyborg, Beastkin Militarists in a perpetual 3 way war with Nerklin hordes and Crytoids - The Nerklins (A faction of quadrupedal chitin armored savages with a bloodlust that borders on religious. They are in a perpetual state of war with the Deltoran Coalition and the Crytoids. They have claws for climbing, jaws of sharp teeth for biting, and a spike on the end of their tail for ranged and close range attacks. They are intelligent enough to use tanks, mechs, and spaceships but show no comprehension of the term diplomacy) - The Crystoids are a conglomerate of Crystal and chromatic Dragons and golems, formerly known as titans or rock people. Not much is known about the faction beyond the fact they are in a perpetual three way war with the Nerklins and the Deltoran Coalition. They come in sizes ranging from leviathans the size of capital ships to the size of small people. Leviathans of such size are very rare.) - The United Entarium (Democratic Republic is made up of 10 races, human snd beast-kin being the most popular, there are also dwarves, elves, orcs, halflings, gnomes, succubi, tieflings, goblins, who claims to prioritize education and exploration above all else, but the percentage of their budget spent on military tech like mechs, tanks, and star Ships is no small number and has spawned small rebel groups within the faction that believe the council is conspiring against them. Most people within the faction are content enough not to ask questions they dont care about. They have good relations with the Alminate Republic and Vulpinari Conglomerate. They are neutral to the other factions) - The Zultorin Empire (Monarchy run by authoritarian nobles who claim to treat their people well. They are ambitious but they mostly keep to themselves and have stayed mostly neutral to their neighbors despite their proud and arrogant claims about their factions power and glory. They have a mercantile presence in most other factions and are often seen selling weapons and hosting arena like events where people bet and fight for money. The nobles fighting amongst themselves is uncommon but far from unheard of.) - The Draconia Alliance (Fuedal Society ruled by the strong. The sub factions in charge formed an alliance for the sake of their races longevity. They are prideful and warlike but know what perpetual power struggles will do to their people. They are a mix of metalloid and gaseous dragons and dragon-kin and Kobolds that love and respect a good fight. They are intelligent and know the value of being civilized in rooms of beings not of their own. In fact they have good relations with the Zultorin Empire and United Entarium. They despise the Crystoids and are known go to war with them on occasion and usually not for very long. The outcome of these small occasional wars is often kept secret by the alliance) - The Vulpinari Conglomerate (A Democratic/Theological republic that is ruled by Kitsune and powerful beastkin. They believe strongly in the power of their ancestory and believe that technology such as weapons, armor, or augmentations should be made to emphasize those beastial ancestories if they are to be made at all. They have good, if not neutral relations with the United Entarium and Draconia Alliance and Alminate Republic but are generally opposed to the Zultorin Empire and Deltorin Coalitions bloodlust in battle or in diplomatic talks)
