Keep your identity
Bring your crew, your name, your history, your uniforms, your traditions. Nobody is asked to erase what they were before coming here.
Second Life . Star Trek Roleplay
A Federation
with land under it
Rookery is a privately owned Federation home for crews that want to be part of something larger. The sim provides the world. The people who join it provide the life.
What Rookery Is
For years people have discussed coalitions and fleets. Very few ever put the land, the infrastructure, and the ongoing cost behind the idea. This sim is that commitment.
Rookery provides ships, stations, facilities, mission spaces, infrastructure, shared resources, and the environment in which our stories take place. Every captain, crew, group, and individual who becomes part of Rookery is expected to contribute to that community through roleplay, events, stories, creativity, participation, or service to the greater whole.
Rookery should be better because your group is here. Your group should be better because Rookery is here.
The Bargain
Run your own bridge
Captains control their crew structure, recruiting, promotions, training, schedules, and stories. No permission slips required to play.
Contribute something
No quotas. No mandatory hours. Just a genuine relationship between your command and the community that gives it a home.
One Federation
Rookery operates as one Federation roleplay community under a single framework, defined and protected by the Admirals' Table. There are not several competing Federation governments sharing the same sim.
Groups that want complete organizational independence are welcome to visit, join public events, and roleplay with us as guests. Groups that want a permanent ship, station, or facility are joining the community under that framework. That distinction matters, and it is the honest thing to say up front.
Two Ways In
Individual players
Come to the OOC welcome area, join the group, or drop into Discord. No entrance exam, no Academy requirement before you are allowed to have fun.
Established crews
Bringing a whole command? Tell us who you are, what you want, and what you intend to bring. Then we talk before anything is assigned.
Come Talk To Us
Tell us about your crew. Tell us what you want to do. More importantly, tell us what you want to build with everyone already here.
Welcome aboard.
