So I had this off-the-wall, vaguely humorous idea for a roleplay event.

Take a bunch of capsuleers on a camping trip.

This would be a fairly light-hearted and friendly affair to offset the relatively serious trend roleplay has been taking as of late. It would allow a number of different capsuleers of various walks of life to socialise outside the context of the extremely complex and stressful world in which they usually live, in a remote, natural setting that they are not usually accustomed to, away from the lights and politics of space stations and big cities. It would also be kinda hilarious, as situations that take high-powered characters out of the context in which they're powerful and put them into a more mundane situation generally are.

Who would be interested in something like this?

[Xav Serise]

I'm envisioning capsuleers getting hives from strange plants and swatting at mosquitoes, occasionally weeping for the ultra-safety of their space boats and the creature-comforts of home.

....so, in short, yes, this sounds hilarious ;D

Depending on the premise, I may or may not be able to envision my own character going along with such a thing (he'd be sunburned and crying about spiders in ten minutes), but if I can find a way where he's obligated to go? Sweet suffering that'd be awesome

Mosquitoes and other flying insects? Capsuleers have one solution.

Orbital strikes.

[John Revenent]

I like the idea alot but.. John does not seem the type. 0.o

[GoGo Yubari]

One of GoGo's hobbies is going to beaches on out of the way planets for surfing, tanning, etc. So, a camping session wouldn't be that strange for her and I could see her actually being behind something like this. Of course, usually she definitely doesn't do this with other capsuleers, but rather extreme sports types looking to explore and play around in exotic galactic locations.

Was wondering if this was some RL meetup plan, with an evening spent round a bonfire sharing old spacefarer tales 

[Kaleigh Doyle]

Nola would never do something like this, but I'd make up a reason to participate because it'd be entertaining, and imagining a hypochondriac with a germ phobia would handle 'the great outdoors'.

[Andreus Ixiris]

It would also give Andreus a chance to show off some of his non-capsule skills.

I've already got a planet picked out: Ruerrotta III, in the Placid Region. Looks like a nice place

[Esna Pitoojee]

Alright, you've got me interested.

How long would they be planetside?

[Andreus Ixiris]

A few nights, I guess. People could leave if they wanted to.

[Saede Riordan]

I could see Nikita  doing this and enjoying it, if she was approached in the right way about it.

"This Thursday, tune in to holo channel 5 for the most SHOCKING, JAW-DROPPING, EDGE OF YOUR SEAT excitement.

Twelve capsuleers, one tropical atoll on an uninhabited world.

Can these demigods of death meet the challenge? Do they have... the right stuff?"

*John Revenent's voice in a soundbite: "I made fire!"*

"Follow our holocameras as they follow the superstars of the sky on POD PILOT SURVIVOR!"

*Fadeout with Esna saying: "Man, this alliance sucks!"*

That is awesome.

Colour me intrigued D:

[Lyn Farel]

Oh lol, I love the idea. Definitly something Lyn could try just for curiosity's sake (and discover that it was not a so great idea afterwise).
