It's also considered the luckiest constellation. A child emperor of sorts with a huge weight on his shoulders. He's realitively new edition to the Zodiac and is the least experienced.

• Ship: The defences systems on the ship are constantly improved and built onto in hopes of making it impervious to attack. They are incredibly skilled in metal maniuplation and building. This ship has a big steampunk and industrious vibe. The geography is split between mines, smiths and labs.

(Gemini)

• Gemini has the ability to clone or make illusions, almost like a disguise. 
• Ship: Has a major focus on Academia. There's a single mountain in the center, that has on observetory on its peak. The rest is forest, as to obscure the stars and focus on other work.

(Leo)

• Impervious to physical damage. Leo is based on the Nemean Lion.

(Libra)

• Libra has the ability to determine whether someone is lying. Libra is the judicial body of the Twelve Zodiacs. There have been corrupt Libra bearers in the past, who took bribes to change verdicts. It would come as no suprise if the current bearer is corrupt as well.

Pisces Damo (Pisces)

• Can breathe under water, swim incredible and has mastered the art of water bending. Due to the freedom that their powers provide, the Pisces bearer does not spend a lot of time on board the actual ship, preferring to swim down deep and explore the ocean. They are responsible for the underworkings of the ships. In fact, the Pisces bearer is barely seen at all. They are only noticed when dead sea creatures surface, killed for food.
• Ship: Pisces are the fishermen, but also deal with aquatic hunts when larger threats draw near. Their ship is the most like an actual ship in construction, with windmills of sails that give them power. Most of the ship is underwater, similar to a submarine. It has extensive windows for monitoring threats.
  
  

General Sagittarus Gunnar (Sagittarus:)

• Sagittarus is the military general, a sharpshooter known for their strictness. 
• Ship: Their ship is used as the barracks, mostly focusing on underwater training such as with submarines manufaced on the Cancer Ship. They are mostly known, however, for ranged weaponary. This ship looks like a bare military camp, with pockets of other territories for training purposes.

• Has eternal youth and life. The Virgo bearer has been given immortality, which they alone can decide to relinquish. They were once in love with the Zodiac Killer. Unfortuantely this caused them to begin aging. Dismayed, Virgo sacrificed this love, causing the Zodiac Killer to become bitter and enraged at the power of the stars.
• Ship: An ancient pirate ship. Antiquated and wooden in structure. It gives a sense of sacred nostalgia to the people on it. It is home to much of the original cuisine and is the main island for musuems. It's like a snapshot frozen in history.
  
  

Scorpio Ulysses

• Can use a powerful toxin. They are ostracized for this ability. Is one of the first people blamed for the death of Cancer. Deep down, they would not hurt anyone.
• Ship: This ship is the primary place for waste management. Scorpio's acids are used to break down much of the solid trash until it can enter the ocean safely. It is overrun by slums, discarded things and discarded people.
  
  

Antagonists
The Zodiac Killer

• Appearence: c. 45 years old; Brown Crew Cut; 5 feet 9 inches; c. 85 kg
• They have the powers of Sol, the sun. The "swallowing" of the stars can be seen as the sunlight obliterating the starlight during the day. Uses the power of the Sun to absorb the Zodiac powers before killing the bearers. This causes the stars in that constellation to vanish. The Zodiac Killer is split between causing as much terror as possible, and covering his tracks as well as possible. To shake people's faith in the Twelve, and to accomplish his mission of amassing their powers. He is a misson-orientated sadist.
• Usually sends some types of letters before killing. Examples include:
  • "I like killing people because it is so much fun it is more fun than killing wild game in the forrest because man is the most dangeroue anamal of all to kill something gives me the most thrilling experence it is even better than getting your rocks off with a girl the best part of it is thae when I die I will be reborn in paradice and all the I have killed will become my slaves I will not give you my name because you will try to sloi down or atop my collectiog of slaves for my afterlife ebeorietemethhpiti"
  • "I hope you are having lots of fan in trying to catch me that wasnt me on the tv show which bringo up a point about me I am not afraid of the gas chamber becaase it will send me to paradlce all the sooher because e now have enough slaves to worv for me where every one else has nothing when they reach paradice so they are afraid of death I am not afraid because i vnow that my new life is life will be an easy one in paradice death"
• Virgo involvement: They were once in love with the Zodiac Killer. Unfortuantely this caused them to begin aging. Dismayed, Virgo sacrificed this love, causing the Zodiac Killer to become bitter and enraged at the power of the stars. This bearer has watched for centuries as the other signs have gone and passed on. This is interesting because Virgo has to be convinced to die. Killing the Virgo is the goal. The antagonist hopes that killing all of the other Zodiac bearers will give them the power to kill Virgo.
  
  

Plot Outline

• Introduction posts. These can be whatever you want to establish your character, so long as they are headed to the prison transport by the end. We'll also need to establish these things:
  • Cancer Aval has been killed with a blow to the head, something his Cancer Shield should have prevented. (This can also be adapted to whatever power FourLeaf goes with.)
  • The prevailing theory is that FourLeaf's character ambushed him and killed him in a single blow. (FourLeaf should have the first introduction post, because it sets the mood.)
  • The prisoner is being taken to Libra in order to be put on trial and mainly to find out how they killed Cancer.
• Our characters will meet while FourLeaf's character is being transferred to Libra for trial. Presumably, Rigel will attack them and fail to kill FourLeaf, but cause enough commotion for them all to escape. What results is their being hunted by the forces of the Twelve and Rigel. 
• (Gap.)
• Aries captures the party, but instead of turning them over, he challenges them to a duel to prove his powers are stronger than the other Zodiacs. Once he realizes the misunderstanding, he becomes an ally.
• Leo is getting played by Zodiac. Thinking that he'll take out their competition and being as arrogant as to say that he couldn't also kill them. He does, but Leo is unaware of the extent of Zodiac's Solar Power, believing the other Zodiac skills to be eliminated instead of absorbed.
• Scorpio is killed second. No one likes him and his poison ability could come in handy for the Zodiac Killer villain. Not all toxins kill you, it can paralyse the you. Making it much easier for the antagonist. Our heroes smuggle in with the garbage, and seek out Scorpio to try and stop Zodiac's next move. Are they too late or too weak to stop him? Probably on the verge of being killed before Rigel steps in, she might be claiming to finish them off to regain her father's favor, only to let them go and start conspiring against Zodiac because of a previous argument.
• I think right after Scorpio, we have an arc where the Twelve secretly call a meeting to discuss what's going on. We get the setup for Leo's death, as well as an introduction to the dynamic of the Twelve with characters like Aquarius and Aries and Virgo. Some of the Twelve won't show up, of course.
• The Zodiac Killer hires Ursa Major after Rigel abandons him.
• When Zodiac goes after Pisces, he takes the time to talk with them about what Pisces saw underneath the waves. Ruins of human civilization. Only Pisces and Virgo know about this at the moment. This is where we get a glimpse of Zodiac's motivations.
• Gemini's death would be deeply personal to Darvi, which could result in them losing it and trying to fight against Zodiac Killer one-on-one. This fails miserably, and ends really badly. Kidnapping would be a great way to force Rigel to finally switch sides.
