i've recently started a pbem game using this idea, called "space opera".
it's basically an alternate setting for the Amber drpg. instead of having
the ability to travel between "worlds" at will, the characters literally
have the power to instantaneously move between planets throughout the
galaxy.

i love this idea. it'd be fun seeing the federation-types trying to put up
with their alien visitors' "cultural differences" (like they apparently put
up with all klingons being psychopathic).
"erm, captain, should the ghoul ambassador be eating the ensign?"
"best not to cause a fuss. be a good chap and pass the byakhee their live
goats, eh?"
