Jericho - a play-by-post rpg

In the distant future mankind has begun to spread across the stars. An endeavor fueled by both a desire to explore uncharted worlds and the never-ending greed of the mega-corps that dominate the Central Systems at the heart of galactic civilization.

On the fringes of known space lies a world that would be considered of little interest were it not for the peculiar form of life that has evolved there: dragons. On this desolate world the colonists of the ship Jericho (of which the planet gained its name) learned to tame these deadly beasts for their own use and thrived for many years until the civilized world came in the form of other settlers, criminal syndicates, and mega-corps looking to exploit the planet.

In the years since, lawlessness and illegal activity run rampant across the surface of the planet. To combat this the capital city of Jericho's Landing created a peace-keeping force of dragon riders known as the Dragoon to maintain order in a savage world.

Beware all who land on this world, for here be dragons...
