Welcome to Nova Ascendence:
A horror has entered our universe and found it's home in our galaxy wiping out civilization after civilization in search for artifacts and technology needed to bring about it's true purpose. Only a handful of civilizations remain scattered across the galaxy and pockets of survivors cling to the last hope they have to survive what is coming.
You are among the lucky, your cubatom stream was intercepted after your last death and materialize at a strange undeathonator station far from home and in the center of the Confederate Syndicate States of New Ephebia!
We are the last hope for our galaxy, you are the last of us who can make a difference.
Will you fight the new threat? Whose side are you on?
Join the Syndicate States! Join the Brotherhood! Join the Rendii! Or duke it out on your own.
Discover the story, be part of the story! Choose your path: economic aspirations, political intrigue, survivor, soldier, businessman, entrepreneur, senator... be a citizen or an outlaw.

In-Game Communication
Role Play. This is a Role Play server and therefore Out of Character communication and Meta-gaming must be kept to a minimum.
Communicating in-game when out of character must be enclosed in (( Double Brackets )) or [[ Double Brackets]] or << Double Brackets >>.
Example:
[ALL] Carnasis: ((This is OOC communication. It cannot progress you through a mission, and must be used sparingly.))
If you have a question for Admin, do not use OOC communication, use /pm.
Example:
[ALL] Carnasis: /pm Adminname Hey this is how I ask admin a question!
To the Admin it looks like this:
[PM] [Carnasis]: Hey this is how I ask admin a question!
Communicating in game when in character. Suspension of disbelief is necessary for the following when communicating in game. Due to limitations of the Game Mechanics of StarMade, these are the following rules when using chat.
Communicating without non-verbal description will result in a general broadband communication in which anyone can hear you, including the bad guys.
Example
[ALL] Carnasis: Hey there! Everyone in the entire universe regardless of where they are can hear what you are saying through this state of the art Quantum Communication.
To communicate using encrypted channels, you must have first established connection and then use the following [r] or (r) or (Radio) or [Encrypted Radio].
Example:
[ALL] Carnasis: [R to Player] Hey there!
[ALL] Player: [R] Hi Carnasis!
[ALL] Carnasis: [R] Peddling any wares I may be interested in?
To communicate locally, that is, only among people in audible range use the following [L] or [Local]
Example:
[ALL] Carnasis: [L] Anybody hear me?
To communicate within your faction channel, you can either SHIFT + ENTER or /f. Since you are speaking within your faction, you do not need to use any prefix.
Example:
[ALL] Carnasis: /f Hey there!
To the Faction it looks like this:
[FACTION] Carnasis: Hey there!
Remember role play your character. The best way to role play for the fun of everyone is to stay true to your characters motivations and goals. So definitely communicate and use the communication protocols for RP accordingly!
If you have something privately to say to another player say it in private. Assume there are eyes and ears everywhere and just because you say something encrypted doesn't mean none else will eventually see or hear it. If you talk about your secret base out in the open, even using [local] assume other people can see it and act on it. Do not run to an admin and complain that someone showed up at your secret base because you talked about it out in the open. Use PMs and faction Chat.
GENERAL SERVER RULES
There are Server rules and then there are RP rules.
SERVER RULES
-Do not attempt to create multiple accounts, it will result in both accounts being deleted.
-Do not lie, attempt to manipulate, or pester admins for blocks.

-You are welcome to claim a station within syndicate or Rendii territory, but if you want to claim an entire SYSTEM for your faction you must do so 4 SYSTEMS away from Rendii or SS territory. However if you want to become an official member of those factions you may claim territory directly next to them.
-If you loose ships or property due to star made related issues the admins will help you out, other wise you are on your own in this dangerous universe.
ROLE PLAY RULES
-You can not role play your self special powers or abilities. If you can't physically do it in game, it can't happen. Just like real life people lie and make stuff up, if they can't physically back it up you can just fly away assuming you've crossed paths with some crazy person. However, if to people want to role-play such activities you are more then welcome, but anything that result from it will not be enforced and admins.
-Admins will offer you role play instances such as research, hacking and things like that. The results of which will be determined by a dice roll.

Once the role play instance is underway however, the results are finally and will be enforced by admins.
-It is the responsibility of every pilot to protect their stuff. You can seek help from the NPC factions, but they may not out right help you.
-Stealing ships and property of another player is allowed, even if that player is offline. If you are going to steal someone's stuff you must notify an admin via pm on the forums or in person. Failure to do so is considered griefing and will be punished.
-Every NPC faction has it's own set of laws and expectations for you to follow. You can be as evil and destructive as you like, but you might not find many friends out there.
-If you have a secret base, keep it a secret! If it shows up as your faction home or something it is not secret.
