Here's how it is: The Old Board  got used up, so we terraformed a whole new galaxy of boards, some rich and flush with new technologies, some not so much.

Central Forums, them was formed the FOX Alliance , waged war to bring everyone under their rule; a few idiots tried to fight it, among them myself, Eric, Odile and Rhy.

I'm Allison, captain of  **Fans of Joss Whedon's Firefly**. Got a good crew: fighters, pilot, mechanic. We even picked up a preacher, and a bona fide companion. There's a doctor, too, his genius sister from some FOX Alliance camp, so they're keeping a low profile.

 You got a job, we can do it, don't much care what it is.
