    Mass Effect 1 1/2

    funhat and I are looking for 2 additional awesome roleplayers to help us live out a bit of fun in the Mass Effect Universe. No, you cannot be Commander Shepard. Sorry, but we figured we'd all get into a battle-royale if we tried to be Commanders and then I'd have to post this in the Arena.

    So, here's the deal: the setting is the Citadel and the timing is just after Mass Effect 1 and before Mass Effect 2 takes place. Hence the nifty name. I know, I'm cool like that. Anyways, generally speaking, we're holding an official audition so it doesn't matter how many responses we have, we're looking for characters with some thought put into them.

    This game will require people who post at least once a day and it will be run in the threads for ease of history and multiple people posting although we've no problem with people moving to PM in certain situations. Please be advised, there is likely to be strong language, violence, gore and possibly mature romance. But please, keep it classy. Again, I want to emphasize dedicated commitment to this thread; minimum once per day! Since we're posting in casual, we do also prefer at least a couple paragraphs with the exception of dialogue heavy scenes. No one expects you to type a gajillion words in response to "What's your name?" Really.

    So Commander Shephard has just gone missing, presumed dead, and her elite companions have split off amongst the stars. But rumors of Reapers have filtered down through the masses. You can be any race from the game, any age that you care to be, and have any occupation that would be on the Citadel or at least have reason to dock there.

    Please respond to this thread with a general concept and we'll get back to you. Please include the following:

    Name:
    Species:
    Occupation:
    Brief history:
    Overarching Goal in Life:

    Thank you!

    I can come out and play. Re-animating a character from a former roleplay if you don't mind. Thread is located here if you'd like to see it.

    Name: David Devarron


    Species: Human


    Occupation: Mercenary, Former Colonial Marine(Infiltrator Class)


    Brief History:Born on a small colony ship near the Terminus systems, David has spent the vast majority of his life aboard ships and is admittedly a little uncomfortable when landing on a planet. Since the age of four he had been apprenticed to his father as one of the ship's all too necessary mechanics, and it came as a great shock to the family when David announced he would be leaving the colony to join the alliance marine corps. This decision caused a great deal of friction between him and his father, and the two have hardly spoken since, though David sends an occasional letter to his mother when circumstances permit it.


    In the marine corps, it was discovered that David possessed a talent for stealth assaults, as well as impeccable aim with a sniper rifle. They quickly transferred him to a sniper/support team and while his aim continued to impress his superiors, his willingness to follow the orders as they were given did not. Frequently, he was disciplined for his insubordinate actions until finally being discharged for 'accidentally' firing a 'stray training round' at an instructor. Since then, David has set his sights on the various mercenary organizations which offer far more freedom and far more profit for his skills. He has come to the Citadel to find both contacts and jobs to keep him afloat until he finds the next well-paying outfit that could use his abilities.


    Overarching Goal in Life: Profit. Along with maintaining the ability to survive long enough to spend that profit and maybe have a few good laughs along the way.

    Name: Lia Koris vas Zeelof nas Ysin (Lia Koris of the ship Zeelof, daughter of Ysin)
    Species: Quarian
    Occupation: Salvage Technician

    Brief history: Born on the ship Zeelof, Lia Koris was sent on her pilgrimage at an early age for aid in reconstructing the damaged Zeelof. The ship had been damaged in the recent Battle for the Citadel, having been docked and secured by CSec for questioning before the attack. With the population now focusing on recovery efforts and rebuilding teams, Lia Koris has earned herself a job as a Salvage Technician, looking through all the wreckage and destruction that was wrought during the battle.

    Overarching Goal in Life: Like most other Quarians, Lia has a strong attachment to all other Quarians. Untrusting of most other races, she landed a job as a salvage tech because the Volus in charge of the salvage in the sector saw her potential. Her goal is to rebuild her damaged ship as well as earn the credits needed to earn a proper living on the Citadel.
    This one has exceeded its tolerance regarding these female-proginator-copulating thresher maws on this female-proginator-copulating stratospheric spacecraft.

    This one has come to kick butt and consume nourishing planktonoids... and this one's supply of planktonoids is utterly depleted.

    Hello everyone! Co-GM here. I'll be playing a 31 year old male ex-STG Salarian named Marekeis who is currently working C-Sec on the Citadel. Mostly he just wants a quiet retirement in around 4 years, and tends to keep to himself. Not sure what he did in STG yet, but I'll figure it out.

    Your description of Marekeis reminds me of a black Salarian version of Murtaugh. lol

    Name: Beta I-33
    AKA: Seto
    Species: Geth
    Occupation: Political Refugee
    Biography: Seto was created as part of a Geth experiment into increasing the effectiveness of thier stealth and targeting abilities. He was given a special A.I core that had been in development since the war with the Quarians began, the core would make him and several other Geth the first to be created with boundless artificial intelligence, they would later become referred to as 'freed Geth', this freedom allowed him to create an identity for himself. The stealth capabilities exceeded all expectations and straight after the tests were completed Seto was put into active service, he went on many covert operations before he chose to leave the Geth army and campaign for peace. It was at this point that things began to go wrong, he and his 'freed' counterparts were hunted down as the Geth considered their anti-war nature to be a fault. He traveled to the citadel and after explaining his position, was granted asylum, he also became the first Geth to enter alliance space peacefully.
    Overarching Goal in Life: Establish equality for all A.I in the galaxy.
