The '''Driftersverse''' is a space-opera continuity that originated with the Drifters RP, then was revived and updated for Drifters II. Both RPs died prematurely (at least with regard to their pages - both lasted a while timewise, mainly due to too many plot twists on the part of Drifters I and constant bumping of Drifters II); the underlying reason for these deaths has not been firmly established.

The premise of both Driftersverse RPs was that of starships, belonging to multiple alien races, being knocked out of wherever they were before and ending up together in an unknown region of space. They then had to work together to get back to somewhere they recognised.

==Races==
*The '''Iscali''', actually two species: near-humans with pointy ears and hair that could be pretty much any color on the visible spectrum, and long-lived sluggy-things that lived inside the humanoids' heads. The two formed a symbiotic relationship, around which their society was based.
*The '''Kivells''', furry beings - divided into two races, the Skiders (about three feet tall and vaguely rodentlike in appearance) and the Murr (nearly as tall as humans, and more similar to dogs and cats and such) capable of using magic and [[hammerspace]].
*The '''Reeeaou''' (that's three E's), basically sentient spacefaring dolphins. Their language - at least as transliterated, since it's essentially impossible to write in a human alphabet - had lots of vowels and not many consonants.
*The '''Ceralians''', amphibious blue humanoids who considered themselves superior to all other races (this did not make them popular with the galactic community) save for a few enlightened individuals (who generally don't get a chance to escape the planet). Originally dropped in Drifters II, since no one wanted to play one, but brought back when [[eternaljwh]] expressed a desire to play as a Ceralian.
*The '''Shalkha''', another amphibious race, scaly and somewhat reptilian, with a caste-based society. (I can't seem to describe them too well. Go ask [[Grim Atescu|Grim]] about them; they're his race.)
