• Nobles of Null is a forum based roleplay site where sci-fi and magic collide. Here, Earth remains fractured and divided despite humanity reaching out to the stars. Worse still, the trans-human slaves of one major power have escaped, only to establish their own Empire, seething with resentment at abuses of the past. Even the discovery of aliens, though medieval in development, has failed to rally these squabbling children of Earth together with its far darker implications. Worse still, is the discovery of the impossible - magic. Practiced by the alien locals, nearly depleted and therefore rare, its reality warping abilities remains abstract and distant to the general populace. All the while, unseen in the darkness of space, forces from without threaten to press in. For those with eyes opened by insight, it is clear that an era is about to end, and that a new age will dawn.

The Edward Deming

"If you can't describe what you are doing as a process, you don't know what you're doing." - W Edwards Deming


If you're interested in joining the plot, join our discord and a GM will help you

The Edward Deming started its life as a geological survey ship involved in early human colonial efforts, providing detailed surveys of planets throughout known space. Over the course of hundreds of years the ship has been rebuilt again and again until finally falling into the hands of the Magnetic Assembly and Colony of New Cambridge in the Hawking system. While the Assembly acceled at producing unmanned drones, it did not specialize in creating the creature-comforts needed for long term space travel so it was happy to make use of the ship.

The Exemplar currently in charge of the ship is Heram Wazu, a renaissance man who's defense of native species against the Daqin has set in motion the ongoing conflicts between The American Union and The Magnetic Assembly, pulling the ship into conflict with many of the largest Human powers.







Plot Style and Expectations

You can expect at least one major GM post to move things forward every week on Friday.

In between GM posts, NPCs will answer questions and some minor actions may be resolved. There is no posting order, and no limit to the number of times you can post in one round.

RP itself occurs in a google doc, and communication between players is handled through discord.

The Story Thus Far

If you are interested in joining, it isn't required that you read or even know the history of the ship. Check out the edward deming: new player guide.

The Edward Deming started its life as a geological survey ship involved in early human colonial efforts, providing detailed surveys of planets throughout known space. Over the course of hundreds of years the ship has been rebuilt again and again until finally falling into the hands of the Magnetic Assembly and Colony of New Cambridge in the Hawking system. While the Assembly had a strong capability for producing unmanned drones, it did not specialize in creating the creature-comforts needed for long term space travel so it was happy to make use of the ship.

The Exemplar currently in charge of the ship is Heram Wazu, a renaissance man who's defense of native species against the Daqin has set in motion the ongoing conflicts between The American Union and The Magnetic Assembly, pulling the ship into conflict with many of the largest Human powers. This leaves Wazu in charge of building out the Provisional Fleet to defend the Assembly and its allies while still maintaining the exploration and diplomatic missions.
