Awesome. I should have the OOC up tomorrow baring world ending unforeseen circumstances.

Personally, I find that the end of the world (as we know it) serves as a great motivator!

@NickTrano
I would like to point something out here.

Your character is a young special operative. And special operatives aren't generally policing a space station. Because that would be like a modern-day Marine helping the police look for a serial killer. It doesn't really work that way, when there's a murderer, the police do it. And if they really need help, the FBI come in, which are essentially paramilitary cops. The equivalent of a Marine doesn't do it. Even if the city where the murderer is running rampant is right next to, say, Fort Hood or somesuch.

So your character is a little overqualified. My character came back to settle- he's a veteran, not active.

@WilsonTurner

The station security goes to track down whatever triggered the general alert. After a while a call comes into the military barracks. Your team is assigned the call.

Basically the station's security calls in an assist from the military. The military squad is not assigned to the station as security.

From what it sounded like on my first check, it was a military operation and not simply the galactic police rolling up in their black-and-whites. Depending on how the story works out I can think of several reasons to have someone like him appear in such a situation. Military horror makes this seem like more than simply a mass shooting, after all. In the backstory I have for him, he is being sent around to kill off different undesirables around several star systems. It wouldn't be much of a stretch, for instance, for this to be the latest in a string of dead stations soaked in blood. Depending on how militarized the society in which this takes place is, it would therefore not be much of a stretch to task military personnel with putting a stop to it.

In any case, it's all subject to change. Took me less than an hour to come up with the character and his backstory. I'm sure I can tweak it as necessary - as we likely all will, if only to bring our technology and backstory enemies in line. Insurrectionists, rebels, what-have-you. Currently the three examples of sample writing don't exactly read like they're from the same universe, know what I mean?

@Blue Demon
Point.

There'll be more detail about the squad. That's what an OOC is for (and not an interest check). Chances are there'll be some changes to be had to everyone's CSs if you've already written them. I haven't read everyone's CSs (those that have given them) but it did give me the idea that I was not clear on who was who and who I was expecting everyone to be. That will be cleared up in the OOC.
