Plans: I'll be generating characters for everyone based on what kind of story I come up with and the results of your deep thoughts (2) above. There will be a little bit of flex for you to make the characters your own, but not too much. They'll be designed for specific roles, so I won't let you stray outside of that role.

System: I'll be using a hacked & homebrewed system based off of the native Fading Suns "Victory Point System" (VPS) and Burning Wheel RPG. I'm aiming for a mostly narrative-style of gameplay with dice-rolling limited to situations with consequences and combat.

Setting: Futuristic dark ages, with a powerful Catholic-style church. Magic (Theurgy), psionics (Psi) and aliens (most humans very xenophobic) do exist.

Comparisons: Dune meets WH40K, Year 1000 in Space.

Requests:
Read up on the setting/factions so you can get comfortable with it. It's a completely unknown setting for most everyone and I don't want to start until people are comfortable enough with it.
