Starfox/Titanfall Crossover RP
Hey there everyone! Hope you are having a great day today! So, as the title suggests, I have a Starfox/Titanfall Crossover RP idea in mind. It would take place in the Titanfall universe.
Before I get into what the RP is about, here's the story according to the Titanfall Wiki:
Humanity _(Anthro kind in this case) lives in the deepest reaches of explored space in a vast region known as The Frontier. It contains many well-known and inhabited solar systems, but many more worlds remain uncharted. Most people will never travel this far away from normal civilization, but for pioneers, explorers, mercenaries, outlaws, and soldiers - the Frontier offers both adventure and opportunity._
Major interplanetary corporations known as Hammond Robotics -- a major manufacturing, aerospace and defense contractor -- used resources of the Frontier to make builds of mecha-combatants such as Titans and Spectres. Titans are descendants of present-day fledgling military exoskeletons. In addition to the obvious combat applications, unarmed forms of Titans are used in heavy industries like cargo transport and deep space ship salvage. They are also used in special applications such as deep space search and rescue, and are very effective in inhospitable environments. The use of Titans is widespread throughout the Frontier in both combat and civilian life. As with Titans, the Frontier contains Pilots of many different styles and experiences. Titan Pilots are rated by 'certifications', most of which apply to civilian applications, such as construction, shipping, and heavy salvage industries. The most prestigious of these is the Full Combat Certification - a widely published series of tests that grade a Titan Pilot's abilities. Because of the extreme physical and mental challenges of mastering both Titan combat & dismounted parkour movement, a fully combat certified Titan pilot is a rare find, and the combat skills of active Pilots in the field varies widely throughout the Frontier.
The Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation, otherwise known as the IMC, started out small, in natural resource extraction industries, under the name Hammond Engineering. Increasing demand for Titan manufacturing materials, combined with Hammond's market-cornering planetary survey technology and map database rights, contributed to explosive growth for the company. Over the course of a century, a series of acquisitions, mergers, and re-brandings lead to the transformation of Hammond Engineering into the ruthless commercial empire that is the IMC. With the Frontier's valuable shipping lanes and vast planetary resources ripe for exploitation, the IMC is dedicated to maximizing profits and shareholder wealth, using the legal application of force when necessary.
The Frontier Militia represents the military arm of the Frontier systems' territorial defense pact. The Militia is a loosely governed mishmash of homesteaders, bandits, mercenaries, and pirates, all rising up as 'citizen soldiers' when the need arises. Each brigade within the Militia is responsible for fighting in an assigned section of Frontier territory. Although some brigades are little more than vast pirate organizations, the Militia has enough resources to be a real obstacle to the IMC's ambitions on the Frontier. The Militia often claims that direct action against the IMC is in the best interest of the homesteaders whom they allegedly represent, but not everyone on the Frontier sees it that way.
To put it into simpler terms, with the discovery of the Frontier, this allowed the IMC to grow with the vast amount of resources located there. When first discovered, they sent people on an expedition to these planets to check them out. However, as time passed, the excitement of the Frontier had died down, and with other conflicts needing the IMC's attention, they discontinued. By the time the IMC had returned to checking out the planets in the frontier, to their shock, the people in the original expedition were flourishing, having turned the habitable planets from nothing into homes for their kind. Struggling to match consumer demands, the IMC decides to pose eminent domain, meaning the IMC was saying since they were the people who had found the planets in the first place, the territories were rightfully theirs. Years pass and the people on the receiving end of the IMC's abuse decide enough is enough and joins forces together to form the Militia. Although less organized when compared to the IMC, the Militia's vast resources and knowledge of the terrain makes them a big obstacle in the IMC's way. The Militia views the IMC as the invaders who are just abusing the people for money and profit, while the IMC views the Militia as ungrateful terrorists who would've been nothing without them, as well as the IMC viewing themselves as keeping the peace and order in the Frontier.
Alright, now its time for the RP. This RP will be about Marcus McCloud, Fox and Krystal McCloud's son, joining the armed forces during this war that has sprung out. However, the view he has in the conflict differs from his parents, who are both retired Militia Pilots from earlier in the war. Marcus views the IMC as the way to go since if they are gone, the Frontier will be up for grabs, which could start a massive war between different groups for control. The RP will start when Marcus is sneakily applying to become an IMC Titan Pilot.
