So, I had an idea a few months back, about a terrorist group called "The Despotoan Disciples", and how they hijack a nuclear facility, etcetera. I've spent the time thinking it over and I have a general idea of how it's going to span out.
So, it all begins with a theft of radioactive waste from one of Xentherida's nuclear power plants. It's overrun in a covert fashion; inside people, stealth, and so on. This part would be a separate RP from the main event. I'd need some people to RP out the belligerents; the DD, the guards, and others like that.
The second part takes place in our Silvia Peninsula colony, due to its central location. Physicians have discovered a more efficient type of fuel that releases enormous amounts of energy to blast off the shuttle. Multiple foreign dignitaries are invited, and the event is to be a tour of the facility, before a break, and then watching a space ship launch using the fuel and install a new satellite.
However, it goes awry when midway through the tour, the facility is overrun by the terrorists and the delegates are taken hostage. On the shuttle, the satellite is removed and replaced by the nuclear waste that was stolen from the power plant. Whether it's a nuclear or radiological weapon, that will be decided. The other spaceships in storage are also fitted with the radioactive material, and a broadcast is made to the nations involved (and others): the leader and government are to step down, and be replaced with a member of the DD, who will rule totalitarian-ly, expecting complete obedience, or face their cities nuked and delegates executed.
There is a quick attempt by some of the hostages to overthrow the guards, but they are stopped and shot; this is all recorded. This shortens the deadline, forcing immediate action. A coalition of nations secretly pools all of their strike teams together for a hard hit on the facility. An enormous gunfight takes place, but just before the button is pressed, the nukes are disarmed. They eventually take custody of the WMDs, and rescue the remaining hostages, and also kill the remaining terrorists.
In the mean time, reconnaissance has identified a cellar in Aridia, central Xentherida, as the headquarters of the DD. This location is stormed, and the leaders arrested. The RP ends with a memorial about two weeks later, commemorating the event and those who died.
Feel free to ask questions and give your ideas/opinions about it, and whether you'd like to be involved. The RP is to start in mid-to-late-October or early November, unless a request to change the start date is made.
