    Mass Effect: Dawn of Tomorrow OOC/CS

    This is the OOC & CS topic for the Mass Effect: Dawn of Tomorrow RP. For more information, refer to the Interest Check topic here.

    No one knows what happened on the Citadel that fateful day. Only three people were present then, and all three of them died there. The resulting energy burst from the Citadel obliterated it, leaving only fragmented debris to burn up in Earth's upper atmosphere. The energy pulse blanketed the planet and the Reapers fell, one by one, seemingly erased by the surge. Their mutated creatures fell dead beside them. Across the entire galaxy, on every contended world, the entire Reaper force simply died. The galaxy had won. But the cost was greater than they expected.

    Among the dead lay the Geth, recently redeemed from their title of heretics and destroyers. They gave their lives - if such things truly lived - to save the galaxy. Alongside the Geth lay the ruined bits of AI's and VI's, and large portions of technology once seen commonly throughout the galaxy. The Mass Effect relays shattered, cutting off access to the rest of galaxy. It took years - centuries - to fully rebuild. But the galaxy had been on its own once before.

    Now, nearly 200 years have passed. The first Mass Effect relay linking Earth to the rest of the galaxy has finally been completed. Once more, humans are a part of the galactic community. But while the Asari and Krogan live for centuries, the humans have much shorter lifespans. Many humans now have never seen aliens, save for the holovids in Hollywood and in school. What paths will the humans forge now? What remains of their old allegiances? Do they still have a place on the Council?

    And are the Reapers truly gone? One can only hope.


    This RP will begin with the first Alliance ship, the SSV NR-7 Normandy, to enter Council space in nearly 200 years. Not every character will have to aboard the ship, some will be members of the other species. But the story starts here, when the humans finally make contact again with the rest of the galaxy. After 200 years, they officially no longer have a place on the Council. Instead, the Krogan and the Quarians - for their valiant efforts in fighting the Reapers - have been given that privilege. The Volus, Elcor, and Batarians have been given Council race status and larger embassies, and play a larger role in the scope of the galaxy (despite the fact that they do not have a seat on the Council).

    Humankind will contact the Council and discussions will begin on whether or not there humans will be given their rank back.


    Players may elect to play any of the cannon races: Human, Asari, Turian, Salarian, Batarian, Volus, Elcor, Yahg, Vorcha, Krogan, Quarian, Drell, or Hanar. Please be aware that the Geth are dead (though there are rumors that not every Geth was destroyed). Players may also elect to play a race of their own creation. If you want to create your own race, please PM me the details regarding the race including: appearance, culture, military, technology, lifespan, and any other pertinent data. Remember to stay in tune with the Mass Effect universe.

    All created races will be listed here with details pertaining to them included in hider tags.

    Name: Velia Si'ona
    Species: Asari
    Sex: "Female"
    Age: 412
    Appearance: Velia is taller, nearly six-foot. She towers above most Asari, and many other species, for that matter. Her skin is a dark shade of blue that almost looks purple. A number of colorful natural "tattoos" appear over her face, back, and arms. She has crystal blue eyes.
    Affiliation: Spectres
    Class: Adept Nemesis
    Abilities: Velia is a potent biotic, not quite at the matriarch level, but very powerful for her age. She is capable of creating and maintaining a strong barrier that can protect up to four people for several minutes of nonstop attack. She can also use mass effect fields to throw enemies with the force of 2000 Newtons, lift them several meters in the air for nearly ten seconds, and can create a powerful micro-singularity and a warp field. Like most biotic attacks, her attacks are most effective against unshielded targets.

    Equipment: She wears high-end specialized body armor capable of stopping a mass effect slug from any conventional infantry weapon; the armor sports high shielding, as well. She carries a HR SevenX Heavy Pistol, a LRM Raptor SMG, and four Lift Grenades.

    Personal Ship: MRS Amitia This ship is one of the fastest ships on the market, though it is nothing compared to the top-of-the-line military ships in use by the Council forces. The Amitia sports a single standard torpedo bay and railgun mounted near the nose. The small ship is designed to be piloted and maintained by a crew of one, but can support up to five.

    Personality: Velia is young and ambitious. She acts quickly, pausing to consider the matter only for a moment. She doesn't look back on her past mistakes, focusing outward, instead. She has received some criticism for her work, some going so far as to call her reckless and careless. But she gets the job done quickly and fairly efficiently. The Council is pleased enough with her work to maintain her status.

    Biography: Velia was born and raised on Thessia, the Asari homeworld. She learned the Asari culture from the greatest Asari matriarchs. Asari are encouraged from a young age to explore the galaxy and learn the nature of other species, to experience life as it unfolds. There are lessons in that experience that Velia has just recently begun to understand. She spent most of her childhood on Thessia, leaving when she was just 95. She ventured the galaxy in search for new and exciting things. She found them in bars, various "mates," and drugs. By the time she was 120, she was a known mercenary working out of the Beta Gamma cluster. She operated with the elite members of the Eclipse, smuggling red sand, slaves, and weapons. She was arrested on the Citadel when she was 132, and served ten years in prison on Thessia. She was released for a single reason: to track down the leader of the Eclipse and bring her to justice. She was recruited by the Thessia high command for this mission following the murder of a famed Matriarch.

    Velia agreed to the mission and, accompanied by a number of undercover commandos, tracked the mercenary gang down. Their attempt at infiltration failed and resorted to combat. Velia demonstrated her biotic potential in barriers and warp fields, protecting the commandos while they put down the resistance. Once the job was completed, Velia was offered a chance at redemption. If she agreed to train with the elite commando units, and to obey the law, then the high command would consider her sentence served. She didn't see any other option, considering she had just betrayed a powerful criminal organization.

    She trained with the commando units and operated in several classified projects until she was nearly 300. By then, she had completely shed her old life and lived a life dedicated to chasing down and crushing injustice. She knew she didn't have the patience to become a Justicar, nor did she like the idea of never having a relationship again. Instead, she elected to work with Citadel elite forces on special missions - mostly taking on terrorist organizations in the Traverse and Terminus Systems. During her time with the elite commandos, she helped in the fight against the Reapers on Thessia.

    Following the war, she was awarded greater command in her unit. Eventually, her expertise in barriers and her skill in ferreting out the unlawful caught the attention of the most infamous Asari Spectre, Shava. Shava suggested Velia to the Council as a new Spectre. Velia passed the tests she was given and, at the age of 355, was made a Spectre of her own right. Since then, she has continued to make a name for herself across the galaxy.

    Personality: Strong willed and Decisive Being born into a Military Environment she has no problems taking orders or giving them when needed. She tries not to let her technical quirks control her, But she really can't help studying and analyzing any new piece of tech she comes across. If Saripha comes to care for squad members or people in general she will risk her life to save theirs.

    Bio: Being born into a strong military family Saripha was always pushed to join the military and loved the idea. as she grew up she became fascinated with tinkering and working with gadgets also she loved separating herself from the other little girls who played with dolls to join the boys in their sports and rough housing. And as such grew up more as a tom-boy than a lady. When she became of age Saripha enrolled into the "Garrus Vakarian" Military Prep school. (ya had to make him remembered somehow) and soon was the top of her class. With a combination of extreme tech aptitude as well as effectiveness with her fire arm Saripha was able to turn heads and gain attention. When it came time for graduation Saripha was quickly snatched up by the military and put into a special forces group. Word has recently been circulating that she might be considered as a Specture candidate but no official statement has been released form the council as of yet.

    Sounds good enough to me. Your character's backstory can develop as he does.

    Yes, we'll need a few of them, really. Hopefully some of our other players will create at least a human secondary character. I'm thinking of making one, myself.
