I've been wanting to do something like this for a while, and I wanted to see how many people are intrigued by this idea. Ideas would also be helpful.

Well, there would be some definite logistical problems to work out.

Namely, the fact that Halo takes place far in Earths future, somewhere in the Milky Way.

Whereas Star Wars takes place thousands of years ago, is totally independent of any Earth civilization, and takes place in an entirely different galaxy.

But once these problems are solved, I would totally join, sounds like fun.

I already figured a way to get around those issues. All it takes is for the people in the Halo to to be put in cryo sleep while they're in slipspace for an undisclosed amount of time. And then they conveniently wake up when they reach a desired point in The Galaxy.

I don't really know much about the Halo genre, so humor me for a moment. The people in slipspace would travel back in time? If they didn't, they would arrive in The Galaxy long after all the Star Wars plots would be done with.

Not necessarily. As the two areas could line up at different parts in their history. So what could be 2552 in the Halo timeline could be 6000 BBY in the Star Wars timeline. And that's just an example, as I'll probably do some calulations so that things line up with a particular point in Star Wars history.

Ah OK then. I was going off the assumption that if it was a "long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away" for modern Earth, it would be even longer ago by the time of the events in Halo.

Well, the far, far away part can stay the same, but as with almost any cross over, certain things must be overlooked.

Fair enough.

So, who would the characters from the Halo side be? The only character that would be RPable is Master Chief, unless someone feels like being one of the highly expendable soldiers.

I was thinking Grey Team, in other words, three Spartan II's.

What other fic-fan plots do we have? the other Star Wars plot died.

I suppose Gurando counts...

The multiple Digimons, the Pokemon, The Star Wars one did die out, there's not very much originality in Gurando, even Boarding School is a complete X-Men ripoff.
What original plots do we have? TCftE never broke the surface, Deathly Mistake barely kicked off (waiting on AoG), Acheron's Zombie Plot is still struggling, and Byoukyou is still working on it. If I'm missing any, my bad, I'm more concentrated on finals right now.
Guys, this is one of the major reasons very few of my other friends that roleplay online refused to join. Because of the lack of original roleplaying. All of them hate fan-fic roleplays, that's why Rise Against never posted, and why Augeas just left.
