@BlackSam3091What are your opinions on created abilities?
Is it it possible if I provide an in-depth explanation of it?

Biotic Crash.

A "two-step" Biotic attack that leaves the user temporarily unable to use further Biotic abilities and greatly reduces the effectiveness of their biotic barriers after its use.

Firstly the user charges themselves with a dangerous amount of biotic energy, charging their L5n implants (currently unusable via any other implant - in doing so could cause the user to die from implants overheating and exploding, or liquify parts of the brain.) to such a level creates a greatly improved barrier during this time frame, making the biotic temporarily extremely resistant to most forms of damage - during this time no other Biotic ability can be used.
When this has happened for a total of 60 seconds the user may "blink" (think of the N7 Fury from multiplayer ME3 when they used dodge) up to a distance of 10 meters, their biotic barriers immediately discharge releasing a burst of biotic energy stunning nearby entities up to a radius of 7.5 meters.
The user then unleashes step two of this attack, using a total of 80 blinks they unleash a rapid fire array of Biotic strikes, their fists imbued with Biotic energy upon a single target causing devastating damage.
This lasts for a total of 5 seconds and is extremely effective against Armoured and non armoured targets - whilst bypassing shields for 50% effectiveness and biotic barriers for 25% effectiveness.
The user then can blink in any direction for another 10 meters, leaving them vulnerable afterwards.
Note: The user can execute up to 150 blink attacks, but leaves them unable to blink to safety afterwards.

The cool down is 6 hours, biotic abilities may not be used for 1 hour, biotic barriers weakened to 50% effectivness for 30 minutes.

Goddamn, I'm offline for five minutes and this place has already blown up.

I won't be able to get a character out now as it's quite late and I need to sleep. I'm going to reserve a spot, but it was my understanding that this would be audition based, not first come first served?

@MiddleEarthRozeI made that mistake, that's just for spectre slots, not actual applications.

@MiddleEarthRoze I believe it's been decided that we'll ease the player cap as long as every application passes snuff. Sam has final say of course though.

@AquaAzura I like the idea of an Amazonian Asari, but I'm not sure if her Krogan father would have given her that kind of appearance. Asari only use alien mates to randomize their own genetic sequences, they don't actually gain any traits that way. Otherwise the sheet is shaping up well and you're free to have a ripped Asari anyway.

@The Spectre It's a good sheet but I can't really see why the Spectres would want him. As far as can be told, he's a Quarian of average skill; and it's not like the Spectres particularly need or want people with significant political ties. They're a covert group that works in the shadows. His supposed strategic skill is a start but it doesn't really explain where he got such skill from, how would he acquire those kinds of skills as a freshly returned pilgrim? It would make more sense if he was part of the Marines if you wanted him to have strategic aptitude; or have him grow up on a military ship.

It's also unexplained just what kind of position he had in his ship and how he acquired such power, and keep in mind the game is only one year post ME3.

@Dervish Looks great to me but Sam has the final word.

@PrivateVentures I like the character concept but I'm kinda iffy on him being good at basically everything as far as I can tell. He's got Tech, Biotics, and Combat. I would prefer if he be more specialized. Perhaps if you focused on his tactical skill and tech aptitude, it'd make sense for Cerberus to want to recruit him. Or alternatively he could have been a biotic who was recruited by Cerberus into an experimental program; and he's a biotic master who can levitate and shield himself thanks to Cerberus augmentations. But without them he's otherwise defenseless. Either way, I'd prefer him to not be quite so powerful.

@Arcarius It seems fine to me, a really great read. will wait to see how the sample post goes. I do hope people start branching out from beef muscle characters though :P Should his venom gauntlets be a power?

@Silver Fox I'm open to Geth characters and I believe Sam is as well. I'm very intrigued by the concept, but I will say that Legion was supposed to be the only unit of his kind and IIRC he was the only Geth who wasn't explicitly under Reaper control at the beginning of the battle for Rannoch. I'm also not sure that ME technology is advanced enough for someone, even a Geth, to Frakenstein a victim of an explosion in the field.

Aye aye will fix it. I know that in lore there was a good portion of Geth that didn't get involved. As it was discussed that the Reapers offered but many didn't. As I remember at least. But that may have been in ME2. But I'll fix it anyway

Prior to ME3, the geth were stuck in a split of whether to follow Sovereign or not.

During the events leading up to ME3 and ME3 itself, the quarians attacked and were more or less unanimous in accepting the Reapers as a means of saving themselves from the quarians. You're literally seeing the entirety of both species locked in a total war.

From what I recall, Legion was unique among geth because all of its runtimes were local in that body. Usually geth all "live" in massive communal servers and the platforms that are their physical bodies are more or less puppets that they don't really lose much if it is destroyed since they are remotely connected. It's like an avatar, as it were.

Of course, the GMs can easily hand wave that the geth had more scouting units like Legion and say Legion itself wasn't aware of any others.

Question on heavy weapons.

I wasn't sure if it would be overkill to add a grenade or missile launcher to Rykarn's equipment for the sake of not making the character overpowered and what not, but would it be possible to have access to those weapons for some missions from the ship's armoury?
