! It's back!Definitely interested in jumping into this again. I forgot to save the final draft of my old CS somewhere other than the former site, so I'll revise it and put it up here on the earlier side of tomorrow.

Good to have you back Derren! I think all of us have to re-write our CS. I suppose its a blessing cause Silver was right. I think my second write-around is much better as compared to the first ^^!

I liked mass effect, 1, 2 and 3, well, not so much the ending/endings to 3...., besides that, this has caught my interest =3 I do hope I can join it X3.I do mean no offense when I post this, but I couldn't help but notice a few races you left out that also helped in the war against the reapers, like the Elcor, Volus, batarians, vorcha, and possibly the Rachni if you count them for helping build the crucible which decided the fate of the galaxy, I think I remember (being full paragon and making sure not to miss anything throughout all three games, except dlc...) that each race I mentioned helped in the final battle in some way, well, I'm not to sure about the Elcor but I'm pretty sure the other races donated they're fleets to the massive fleet to help fight the reapers at earth =3 feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, I just thought I'd put that out there =3

You are one hundred precent correct. As Silver mentioned, I had to rewrite everything, and I did play ME with full paragon. All those races you mentioned would most certainly be around. However, to prevent an overload of Council seats, I'm going to keep only the main races on the Council. Nothing against the others I assure you.

NacNak said
as much a I like the varied races of Mass Effect, I was wondering if I could be a synthetic, not so much as a geth, but a synthetic non the less, but if it's not allowed then I will happily be a geth =3

To address this. Though centuries have passed, technology isn't as good as Shepard's time. Given that each race had to essentially rebuild almost everything, I'd say an AI like EDI may not quite exist yet. The Geth are the one exception. I think with the ending I played through, they were destroyed along with the destruction of the crucible and Reapers. However, I'm still ironing out just how much present tech matches the old tech. If anyone wants to bounce ideas about, I'm more than open to that.

Do our armor appearances have to be from the ME franchise? Could....could we submit customs or races or armor? either or

If you so decide to make a custom race, I won't stop you. However, I do ask you clear it by me first. I absolutely adore creativity with all my players, but ... you know, we need to keep it within reason.

As for armor, I ask that you again clear this with me. I have a technology hider check thing being made for the OOC that is meant to give everyone an idea where technology currently stands.

Stryder said *bro fists Nac* So Halo armor is a go then? :3

Erhm ... again please clear these concepts with me ^^"

Metrognome said
Excited. This looks great, interested in joining. Curious. Can I play as an Elcor?

I don't want to sound terribly mean, but could you stick with the main races? I'm not sure how an Elcor would operate, so to speak. I've only seen them in logistic roles and as merchants. Feel free to talk to me about this though ^^!

---

I think that was everything I had to catch up on. I suppose going to sleep wasn't the best of ideas ^^" I'll have an OOC up soon, which will be richer in detail.

[Silver Fox]

Mhmm I believe the Elcor acted as tanks by putting large tankike guns on their back. But yeah probably better with the main races. XD

[Metrognome]

Do you mean you're not sure how they'd operate in combat? Or just in general?

[Anima]

More so on the combat aspect. I may have missed them, but I've only seen them as shop keepers, merchants, and diplomats.

Nope, in battle they basically are a tank :3 they explain after you get their help in battle in the Citadel.

[Anima]

Whoa 0.0.... I definitely missed this one then ...

[Metrognome]

Silver fox is correct. In combat the Elcor compensate for their slow reactions by acting as weapons platforms. They mount guns similar in size to those on alliance vehicles on their shoulders which are controlled by advanced VI control systems.

They are often referred to as "Living tanks" by their allies.

[Hexaflexagon]

They are like the Mako, or Firewalker, but on four legs. lol

And on what race we would choice, I'm thinking either an Asari, or a Salarian.

[Silver Fox]

It's okay, it's sorta easy to miss since I think it's at the end of the game and if you don't go talk to everyone in each city (like I did) before battle) xD

And either is a good choice :3 we don't have anyone yet who wants to be a alien (minus Geth)

[Derren Krenshaw]

o.O wow this thread got a lot of attention.

Got my CS mostly done from the looks of it, so I'll put it up here now. As before, if there's something you feel should be changed, or if you'd like me to flesh out something more, just give the word and I'll edit.

"Silently in, Victorious out."

Home World:
-Thessia

Biography:
-No race forgets tragedy easily, least of all the long-lived Asari. The reaper invasion may have sown destruction across the galaxy, but it was the razing of Thessia that taught the Asari what fear and disgrace truly felt like. And if there was one thing the Asari learned after the reaper invasion was finally over, it was this: Thessia would never fall again.

Arileth was born with that teaching instilled in her mind, and rose to embrace everything it stood for. Her youth was spent in rigorous training, her early maiden days passed by among Thessia's own military squads. Like many young Asari, her people chose her to be one of a new wave of soldiers, ones who would never allow an enemy to land upon Thessian soil ever again.

And Arileth rose to the challenge.

She has proven her mettle time and again in the fires of combat, moving unseen from skirmish to skirmish. Sabatoge, assassination, anti-armor combat, her talents have helped subdue more than a few rebellious factions and rampaging pirates. The invasion of Thessia showed the Asari that even they could not always win on finesse alone, but Arileth stands testament to just how effective those tactics can be. A squad of one who values the defense of her homeworld above all else, she has now been chosen to be one of Echelon, tasked with showing this new enemy that the Asari would never again be made to yield.

Any other notables:
-Despite being Asari and a notable figure in their military, Arileth is rarely seen utilizing Biotic abilities in combat.

[Anima]

Okay, got it. Why not? I honestly must have missed this Elcor part, but if you'd like to play one, go right ahead ^^!

For some reason I just thought of cow tipping but instead of a cow, it was en elcor instead ... xD...

[Anima]

CS on an interest check? Wait for that OOC folks! I promise, it'll be here soon >.<!

[Silver Fox]

Were just getting them ready Anima :D

well then, I'd pick a Geth, I could say that it just happened to escape the blast radius of the crucible, or was reverse engineered =3

Hiya! I was in the original RP, I think my character was named Werner Coetzee. Is there still an open slot for me? If not, I'll just slink out with my tail between my legs.

-edit-

Somehow did not see the post right above mine. What a fool I am...

[Anima]

Dear all, here's a bump/revival type post.

If anyone is interested, please go to the OOC page. Updated information will be there.

Still looking for people.
