Rather than continue spamming the poor "sites you want to see" thread, I'm going to just make this its own thread and quote what I have already said and then tag people who said they wanted a romance site, even if it's not what they wanted. Which if it's not, I apologize, I just wanted to offer it there in case it was If you're interested and not tagged (or you think someone else would be interested who I didn't tag), feel free to jump in, mkay?
Dew, @jea, edward, SEADRA, NOVA, SUCRÉ, invictus (your like conveys interest maybe?), MASQUE (since you always love my sites)
Ironically enough, I had a romance site in the works before I started my superhero one. However, with a base using Katy Perry's Extraterrestrial, somehow I doubt it is what any of y'all are looking for since there were aliens involved, even if it would be romance.
-
Hey man, it'd be Proboards and I'd need to basically start from scratch since I used a lot of what I'd intended for it for other things, but if people would be up for a site where Earth was destroyed and people were taken from it and placed in an environment where the aliens are literally supposed to be breeding with them to continue the race but start falling in love with them instead and if I got a couple staffers, I'd not be opposed to putting it back together.
-
Well mostly since I can't do RL sites to save my life obviously it'd be animanga. I'm going to probs casually ignore the improbability of strange hair colors for even humans. But. As far as the aliens go, since I'm sticking to humanoids you'd defs be able to get away with normal fcs even if they're not in their "I am human" form. Since the humans are clearly very fragile and do not know how to handle the fact that their planet is destroyed and they are with aliens now.
Rough species right now, however, are a species with cat/dog ears and tails, one with reptilian hands and feet with scales that go halfway up the calf/forearm (with a disguise for these, obviously), one with feathers (maybe on the far edges of the cheeks, chest, and biceps and thighs - feathery wings are still up for debate), and then there's the obligatory "it's a normal person except from the waist down they have tentacles if their disguise isn't on" race. And the humans. I might add more later, but yeah... that's what I got for sure right now.

WINGS. PLZ.
And this sounds fun I'll help you staffles if there isn't really a complex system? probs not 'cuz it's romance durr me
I would suggest this takes place on a space station that has similies of earth environments so that the humans can feel safer. My other question is how recent is the earth asplosion and about how many people did they save? (depending on how many you could make an entire chain of inter connected space stations or something.) so ye .w.

I have plans for wings, it's just a matter of getting to it.
And yeah no ew the simpler the system, the better. I don't even think there's going to be much of a system, to be entirely honest.
And I was planning on it actually being a "new" settlement on a planet they set up a human colony on called Nova Earth, sorta like... a new nature preserve for humans. And then have it be maybe a thousand years since Earth was destroyed but they preserved the humans in cryosleep and thus the histories and such go from birth to waking up from cryosleep into their new world and they just think they all were selected to be at some new town or something, no clue.
Though the space station feel wouldn't be hard either, and I could do something similar. It just wouldn't have the "this is the ground and here is the school and here's the car I drive to get to school" feel. Unless I did both, which is a third possibility I've been considering.

Actually both would be interesting, since they could be waking up batches of humans at a singular time. Adjusting them on the space station before sending them down to the nature preserve? Because they have to be aware at some point of shit going on. Or do it the other way around and have them wake up down there, and those smart enough to notice something off get whisked to the station?
Those ones could get training/deeper knowledge in order to help them understand and help guide people through the entire thing. Idk I'm just throwing things out at this point lol

The original site concept was supposed to be a town on normal Earth where a few people would reveal that they were aliens and whisk away their romantic partners for required breeding sessions, but that's not only inappropriate but also I like the new idea better.
And I'd thought it would be more of a "we'll do it this way, but we'll also do it this way for science comparison on which works best for them". Since they probs wouldn't hide the fact so much on the space station as they would Nova Earth.

Plus it fits in nicely with the idea that it's all "in the name of science" yeah right, so I think that is what I'm going with.
In other news, I've gotten started on the old url with putting back boards and trying to get an idea for the lore and the ic boards, but I won't be linking that officially out until I get a working skin on it.

The new characters being on the station for a thread sounds cool to me, maybe could do that IC bio thing zerohour and some other members were interested in waaay back? Then they are released to the preserve. Question how are the human politics, along with alien? Why did the aliens agree to help the humans?

I'm still leaning towards creating the separate environments and have it be either on the station or on Nova Earth. And IC bio thing? I don't remember that, and I'm not sure if I'd go for something like that either.
As far as the politics go, essentially, the humans would be making their own town and the aliens would have to blend in (for Nova Earth) or interact normally (for the station). And the aliens didn't really... agree, it's more of a "well this planet is getting destroyed, wait there's sentient life on it, craaaaap okay real quick, let's set up a nature preserve and try to make sure they breed and continue their species and evolve further to be able to properly interact with the galactic order" type of thing. Then it went horribly wrong when all the aliens who are supposed to be putting good genes in the population for science start falling for their charges.
This is a brief description of the species and their names. None of them are set in stone except for the Draconian, which I like, and I'll also likely come up with scientific names for them using the genus Homo. *snickers immaturely* So I'm up for suggestions for both actual names and scientific names.
Humans - They are humans. What more do you want from me?
Mimino - A species who are quite openly fierce warriors and known for following their instincts, they are often great lovers, if a bit more wild than most. With a pair of animal ears on their head and a furred tail protruding from their backsides, their balance is rarely known to falter. Extremely expressive, their senses are also far keener than that of most races, making them good in battle - likely why their race is a favorite to employ in an army, the majority of them marshaled into mercenary groups. They have long since immersed themselves in human culture with the aid of certain humans' fascination for their ears and tails, and in fact, it was their motion to begin the Gaia Project to preserve the human race. Although most are omnivores and will eat just about anything, many prefer fruits and vegetables.
Draconians - A species who are known for their brutality and efficiency, as well as their libidos and their... lack of romance. They are characterized by having reptilian-like claws for their hands and feet, which are rather scaly up to about halfway up their calves and forearms, where it transitions to skin. Their bones are stronger than a human's, closer to the strength of steel, and they are extremely durable. They are also quite agile jumpers, capable of leaping to heights twice their own, and adept climbers with their claws, unsurprising given that their diet is almost exclusively carnivorous. They also have rather long reptilian tails that are either scaled or made of an exoskeleton. Despite the name, however, they do not possess wings.
Phoenicii (single: phoenixi) - A species quite open about their romantic ideals, they also happen to be rather passionate and flighty. They have patches of soft, down-like feathers somewhere on their body, usually around their chest, sides, and/or dusting back behind their jaw beneath the ear. Extremely beautiful, they are also rather fragile, unsurprising given their diet of mostly seeds and grains, as well as the fact that their bones are hollow, making them rather lightweight. They are one of the few humanoid races to possess wings, though theirs are not strong enough to support their weight for anything more strenuous than gliding and is more used to show emotions and preserve warmth.
Centapoid Yes you can tell I struggled with this one - A species that is rather misunderstood throughout the galaxy thanks to the... less than flattering impressions created by human depictions, they are actually quite affectionate and loyal. As the most flamboyantly alien creatures of the four approved species, they have a large selection of very strong tentacles from the waist down that support them in place of legs. The cilla on them are actually strong enough to support their weight, and that of another person, completely upside down if need be, though it is not recommended. Extremely good swimmers, and flexible to boot, their main diet consists of fish and greens. Surprisingly enough, aside from the tentacles, they are perhaps the most similar to humans both in DNA and culture.

As an update: I've gotten most of the OOC boards done, it's just the IC boards left mostly. And a skin. Since I can't skin to save my life. *sobs in corner*
Oh and the actual info threads since I make boards first, then skin, then add the actual lore.
