hehe I'm up for xmen based RPs anytime. Though because the movie came out recently I'm surprised no one has created one. Even a search (maybe I missed it though).
-----------------------------
Story: Man kind made some colony ships that launched in time to avoid the inner turmoil that caused widespread destruction across Earth. They are all bound towards Alpha Centauri; the newly space explorers wasted no time to watch the rest of humanity spiral to extinction on Earth as they left the Sol System right away. At this point we also have suspended animation pods which all the crew sleeps in as the AI handles the majority of the trip. People still age but much much more slowly. Two biological years would pass by the time we reach our destination. However upon waking up we notice the damage and destruction of many parts of the ship. Some pods are broken and the bodies inside...rotten. I have 3 surprises for the characters to be revealed basically all at once when they reach the bridge or some kind of command or security terminal.

Stasis Pods: the suspended animation technology works in conjunction with nanomachines in our bodies. It allows to interface with terminals and control various machines. But remember that nothing aboard Pegasus was designed for combat. The nanites themselves were designed to keep us healthy. /note

The Pegasus: It is basically a giant flying saucer. It's constant rotation provides gravity. Imagine a carnival ride that's a wheel. People are strapped to the wall, when the machine starts to spin they are forced again the wall right? It works like that, forcing them to the "wall" closest to the outside of the ship. The wall acts like a floor, the center of the saucer being up no matter which part of the ship you are in. Things are designed also to be functional in zero gravity though so there are things like rails and such. No stairs, but ladders instead.
-----------------------------
...I hope my idea isn't horribly flawed. But it's fun to me to think about things like this x3 Wrote it all down in a rush of thought. Remember I made this stuff up in idle fantasy so there could be things wrong. Especially given how detailed it all is lol

When I daydreamed this place up I was thinking of it like a video game ;) Would you like to know what the surprises are? And am I being scary with the long post and all the details ^^;;
