This is my first go on a interactive story. You probably know the drill, read the text and then post commands with the >. Hope this turns out well!
[B]About the story[/B]
I plan on having this story based in a distant future, science fiction basically with some comedy elements in it. When you post ideas/commmands stick it with the overall theme. Don't have commands like >Pick flowers. You get my point? Good. Let's begin.

[h2]Chapter 1: A Divided Galaxy[/h2]
Before the war, we were all thriving in this horrible galaxy. Every coalition from the war hungry Antapo to the trading super-conglomerate United Supply were happily trading with each other. War was never heard of. The only wars that actually occurred were the massive battles between the Antapo and the mysterious Onata. The Onata has always been seperated from the rest of the galaxy, residing in their almost cut-off area of space. Rumor has it that the Onata are exiles and outlaws from the other coalitions. Other rumors state that they are a rouge Artificial Intelligence. It's impossible to say really who the Onata is since their ships are of a very unique design and their communication channels are encrypted in such a way, that if you actually listen to it the Onata will somehow know that you are listening and suddenly switch comms channel and dispatch fighters to kill you.
The Onata is actually the reason why the war started. The Manitra conglomerate mistook Antapo mercenaries for Onata ships and opened fire. The Antapo took this as a decleration of war and started to procedurally kill every single Manitra colony until the only colony left was Manitra Prime, the super-capital of the conglomerate. Luckily for the Manitris, the Untopi alliance came to their defence and used every single ship in their 15th fleet to defend Manitra Prime. They eventually held off the attack and severely crippled the Antapo navy. Meanwhile, different coalitions were waging war against the Antapo and it's allies. This war divided the galaxy into 2 factions, the democratic Kalitro that was mostly composed of muli-coalition super-conglomerates. The largest of them, the hyper-conglomerate Alpha Mining, were in the leadership of Kalitro. Kalitro One, the capital system, was the largest capital of it's kind. A very-large trade hub with a extremely comprehensive defence, it was the brainchild of all the coalitions.
The fascist alliance that is Antapo was in control of a very large part of the galaxy. Though it's capital was small, the Antapo had a [I]massive[/I] armed forces. It could wipe out a colony within a few days and take out a Kalitro fleet in a week. Though the size of it's navy was huge, it's technology wasn't very advanced. The ships had major weaknesses that could easily be manipulated.
So here I am. Alexander, a jobless, alcoholic and a screwed up person. I miss the times when I was a captain for the [I]Albatross[/I]. A ship that actually looked like the ancient bird itself. It was magnificent! But that damn war ruined everything. The Antapo took my ship, my assets, EVERYTHING!
Sitting in Jim's bar in Kalitro One Alpha is like sitting in a junkyard, only hobos and other alcoholics. I don't know what to do, I tried everything from cleaning the streets to being a bartender. Nothing really worked for me. All I'm doing now is sitting and drinking alcohol every day.
"Hey Alexander! What's up?" said the Bartender
"Fuck my life. I'll buy the usual."
[I][B]What happens next in this epic novel? That is for YOU to decide![/B][/I]
