In the year 2148, explorers on Mars discovered the remains of an ancient space-faring civilization. In the decades that followed, these mysterious artifacts revealed startling new technologies, enabling travel to the furthest stars. The basis for this incredible technology was a force that controlled the very fabric of space and time. They called it the greatest discovery in human history. The civilizations of the galaxy call it Mass Effect. In 2157, humanity discovered it was not alone in the universe. Thirty years later, they found a peaceful place among dozens of galactic species.
But this idyllic future was overshadowed by a dark past: Reapers, a sentient race of machines responsible for cleansing the galaxy of all organic life every fifty thousand years, were about to return. The leaders of the galaxy were paralyzed by indecision, unable to accept the legend of the Reapers as fact. But one soldier had seen the legend come to life. Commander Shepard, first human Spectre, with the help of the galaxy and his multi-species team, pushed back the reapers. By overloading some key systems of the Citadel, a pulse was sent through the mass relays, reaching everywhere in the galaxy. The pulse damaged the mass replays which allow faster than light travel, but in turn wiped out all of the Reaper forces, putting a permanent end to the galaxy wide cycle of mass extinction.
This day marks the one-hundredth year anniversary of the defeat of the reapers. Citizens from across the galaxy have traveled to the Citadel's Presidium to take part in one of the years most monumental occasions. A massive chamber with a dome above it had been built onto the Presidium shortly after the Reaper war. This chamber is made to look like a lush Earthen forest with a hiking trail through it that leads to a large open area where a colossal statue can be found. This statue is made up of each of the galaxies species, standing at attention and holding a stiff salute of their own kind. Below and in front of this impressive statue was a V.I. that could give information about any aspect of the reaper war in great detail.
Today, the V.I. has been momentarily turned off. Instead, a vast and elegant table has been set up with eight microphones and eight chairs. Each seat will be filled with significant figures that included the Citadel Council and living survivors from the Reaper war. This chamber, that is officially called the Remembrance of Fallen Heroes, is so massive that exhibits have been set up for people to learn more about the Reaper war and all that it entailed. Along these areas are large assortments of food and drinks, to keep those who attended more comfortable and relaxed.
Not all of the galaxy sees this monumental event as a day of remembrance and celebration. Some see it as an opportunity for chaos, disorder, panic and the chance to move their plans forward. C-Sec is aware of potential threats that these events sometimes attract but exactly who these people are and why they would attempt anything immoral on such an important day for everyone in the Milky Way remains a mystery. During a press-conference, C-Sec and special security forces had ensured the public that they are prepared for anything that may come their way and will not allow any harm to come to anyone at any time of the celebration. This statement has brought a feeling of calm over those who are attending, and even lowered the guard of many important figures.
The Milky Way will soon learn that peace and unity are an illusion, used to cover up truths that the Citadels Council does not want their citizens to know. The truth is that there will always be a threat against the stability of the Galaxy, and they will learn this in one of the most savage and merciless ways. Now even greater threats await to be unleashed up the Galaxy, ready to test it's resolve and might once more.
Hello and welcome to Mass Effect: Insurrection! First off, I want to thank all of you for your interest in the RP. This is a high casual to low-advanced level RP. The RP takes place 100 years after the closing events of Mass Effect 3. The beginning of the RP will take place in a new area of the Citadels Presidium called the Remembrance of the Fallen Heroes during the 100th anniversary celebration of the defeat of the Reapers. We will each be playing one of those lucky people who were personally invited to attend the celebration in person.
After the opening events of the story, we will find ourselves traveling all across the galaxy in our own ship to face a new and very realistic threat. We will visit old worlds we know from the original series and even some new ones that I have designed from the ground up. Along with the RP's main threat, we will be facing a number of more minor ones that will still prove a challenge to our highly skilled and reliable team.
Along side the main story, I plan for us to have some moments of rest and relaxation, to build social relationships and have a good time.
I have chosen Mass Effect 3 ending where Shepard sacrifices some key components of the Citadel to send a pulse through the mass relays. This pulse damages the mass relays but travels through the galaxy and wipes out all of the Reaper Forces. Due to people liking other synthetic life like the Geth, I have decided that all other synthetic life was untouched. Along side this, I am going with the lore from the Happy Ending Mod, which means everyone survives, including Shepard, Anderson and the whole squad.
Another important detail about the RP is that, just like the game, the story can change depending on what choices the players make. Please keep in mind that I am always open to suggestions and constructive criticism! If you have any questions, please let me know via a personal message.
