Our current open character positions are: Salarian Drell Krogan However, our new Shepard has a few strings attached to him/her. Okay, so you're probably wondering how a Shepard baby even came to be. PRE SUICIDE MISSION SEX. YES. And Ashley decided to be cool and give Shepard's surname to him. So that explains that. Also, he has cripplingly low self-esteem because of the legacy his father left behind, and everyone's been comparing him to his father--just a classic case of i-will-forever-be-in-my-father's-shadow-forever. BUT, our dear Shepard has been given a chance on a new ship, the Alliance warship SSV Roanoke. Shepard is also a Spectre and was recently promoted to Major Shepard in the Alliance military. In other words, he's done better than his father in the Alliance military, but hasn't done anything to the same effect as his father. That was horribly long winded.) All of the other characters are whatever you want them to be, and there is already a turian a second human (ish) on board, and a Shepard. And that's it for the characters. Now for the plot and how it's going to work. The plot will basically written around Shepard's choices in the roleplay, and our NPC characters will present the choices to him and generally guide him along the quests and such. We basically have a starting point and we won't know what will happen after that. Which makes it all the more fun! We will start off, however, with recruiting missions, but I'll tell you how that works later.So we have two threads in our Plot category on the forum (which is ready!). One is the State of the Galaxy, and the other will be the storyline. Both will update as needed, and if everyone needs to read those threads, we have a nice little marquee on the top of the forum that'll notify you. Otherwise it will have links to silly videos and websites. Or equally silly messages. What we have for the plot now, is: Shepard has recently been promoted to Major, and finally, he was being given his own ship with his becoming a Spectre. He had done everything his parents had done, but better. But people still compared him to his father, and he was forever the man who “could never do better than his father if given the chance”. Shepard's finally been given that chance with his new ship, the SSV Roanoke. But there's nothing to save the galaxy from...yet. There's been an emergence of a new race who have recently entered Council space...The Council has sent a greeting party with a Spectre for security, but none of them have returned. Shepard's been commissioned to investigate...but not without an able team first. I just realized how Shepard-centric that is. We may improve upon it before we open the forum for bi'ness but who knows. We're lazy people. Now for the mission system and NPC functions!! I had better do the NPC guys first since they are heavily intertwined with the quest system. We have our Yeoman, Thomas Vega, who notifies you if you have a message at your private terminal, tells you if someone wants to see you, or just bothers you for no reason. He also posts missions in the mission category on the forum. We also have our Pilot James Baron, who flies the ship, is a general asshole, and is sadly fully functional. He presents Shepard with bad news during missions basically. Maybe some good news sometimes. ... But mostly bad. Ahem. Anyways, our mission system is basic. Vega will approiately title the missions to notify you if they're a main or side mission. Side missions never expire, and they're just there to give us a break if needed. So that's that. I'm also going to go ahead and mention how time's going to work in game. Time on the Roanoke is fluid IG, but IRL we'll probably be hanging out for a week in that forum. Time IG in missions is three days max, but again, we have a week to complete that. The week thing is pretty flexible, but I don't want everyone getting bored with a mission because we spent like a month roleplaying it out. Yeah. *cough* Now just some extra stuff that I forgot: Every character gets their own password protected private forum. This is referred to as their quarters, and if someone wants to get in, they'll notify Vega, and Vega will notify you, and blah blah blah. You decide whether or not they can come in, and you can send your password to the person blah blah blah via the website's PM system. You'll also have an optional (just let me know if you want one) archive PW protected forum if you don't want everyone that swoops in to see what you've been doing in your private time. /cough THAT ALSO BRINGS UP OUR ONE SILLY RULE: SLEEP WITH EVERYONE BECAUSE IT UNLOCKS SECRET POWERS You don't have to, it's just encouraged. ...yep. that secret powers one is a lie You can fully interact with NPCs as well. If the Roanoke is boring, just start a topic in the CIC with either Lance or Thomas' name in it (or both, that'll be really funny) and they'll talk to you. Warning: Thomas is a bit of a tight ass. Um. I think that's it. If not, and you still want to join after this tl;dr message, you'll find out sooooon~ |
