Alright, I will attempt to think up a history then. All I know is that sci-fi histories take me longer than others because it's the more oddball of the genres.

slowly, but surely...
I'm going to get started on the IC. Still looking for at least one more RPer, but I'll be looking to get this started hopefully by the end of this weekend, no later than next week!
Im posting my character soon. Takes a while for my inspiration to kick in.
Appearance:
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 184 Lbs
Name: Sha'Knora (Android #55145 and the K is silent.)
Age: 12 years since "Birth". Mental age of 26
birth quadrant B19
Primary Role: Navigations Expert and Pilot
Secondary Role: Hangar Bay Mechanic
Personality: Ethical, Systematic, Efficient. These are the words that describe Sha'Knora. Nearly synthetic, she is programmed as so. She is nearly competently robotic in her personality. She dislikes to be a hindrance to any of her fellow crew members. She has an almost cold feel to her. She simply doesn't understand human emotions to their fullest. But deep within herself, she always is searching to find the humanity within her. She yearns for the taste of being a living thing. Being a construct of science makes her unable to understand others on an emotional level. And she wants to break that barrier in her creation. Though she only does that on her off time.
Species: Android
Species Origin: Sha'Knora is an android created by Yirkuthu scientists in an experiment to produce more soldiers for battle and other purposes. Sha’Knora is a successful experiment that is still undergoing testing. She is a first stage test to see if androids can adapt well enough to the struggles of living beings.
list of augmentations for foreign planetary exploration:
No requirement to breath air.
Completely waterproof.
Self sufficient nuclear power reactor.
No need to eat/drink.
Has higher sensory modules. (Can see in infrared/ultraviolet/thermal/nightvision. Can hear lower and higher frequencies than average human)
High levels of martial arts combat/self defense.
Learns quickly and adapts easily
Character History: Sha’Knora was birthed in a secret laboratory supported by the Yirkuthu government. She was created for intergalactic space travel and was originally planned to be used for robotic space exploration. She was given the best that the Yirkuthu science had to offer on her creation. The program she belonged to was known as the “Visionary’s” as her program was to produce androids capable of self manning space crafts and exploring without the assistance of actual people.
Sha’Knora was the first of few to be deemed true artificial intelligence. Her programming and processing powers were equal to that of very intelligent people. She was truly a marvel of science. Though many androids have been made before her self, she was on a whole new class. She had a system placed in her to be nearly completely identical to that of humans. She was in almost all aspects, a person. But early testing revealed that they could not place in her the feeling of humanity and what it meant to fear danger and death. She could easily process destruction and risks, but neurologically, it meant nothing to her.
This was something that the scientists hoped she would eventually discover on her own. As they couldn’t come up with the programming substantial enough to truly make her human. But before the program could show its results to the government for mass production, the lab was sabotaged and attacked by a rebel group which went against the advancement of the program. The lab destroyed and the program abandoned, Sha’Knora had no objective but self sustainment. She escaped just fine and then moved on to find a life on her own with her skills. The lab and program was completely covered up and placed away to be forgotten.
She soon signed up for exploration as she thought it was the best place to put her skills to use. Now she has become a member of the ULSS Zotharis.
Equipment: None, she should have everything she needs inside of her. Besides weapons.

I hope this is good. Lemmy know if anything needs to change.

Sha'Knora is great! I love how as an android, she feels the need to show self-worth, which feels like it was driven by the fact that she couldn't fulfill her duty the first time as an explorer for the Yirkuthu, and how she actively sought out the ULSS to do what she was programmed for. Welcome aboard the Zotharis!

Thanks for showing interest! We're definitely looking for a couple more people.

Yup! That's actually a requirement to join. Your species can also be the original founder to any of the five factions (except the Metacaug Elite) as well.

You're welcome! She'll be a nice addition to the crew. We need a tokin android in our gang. I should warn you though that since she's also a shipdeck mechanic, she'll most likely be around my other character Ornax, who may or may not be a terrible influence for her :)

Haha. Great! I can't wait for this to lift off! I am excited.

^Me too!
For those still interested in joining, here are the spots that are left:
Primary Role: Engineer, Scientist
Secondary Role: Lab Assistant, Chef
If you plan on joining, please tell me so I can reserve those spots. If there are more people that are willing to join after those spots are filled before I get the IC up, I'll most likely eliminate your secondary role and have your primary serve as an assistant to whichever character holds that position.

I am creating a plant people species :p My character could either be Chef or Lab assistant. I take it there's no position left for the field team and stuffs? :p I'll probably go for Chef, so could I get that position reserved?

Excellent. Well, you've got your secondary role reserved. The ones listed on primary have not been taken yet, so engineer and scientist are up for grabs.
Would anybody be interested in doing some world(universe?)building, maybe in a joint Google docs folder? We could have separate pages for each species/world, flesh out existing interspecies relations, go into more depth about the various major points in history and how the different societies feel about them, etc. It could be kind of like an in-progress encyclopedia, with new info added whenever the team discovers something. Would that sort of thing be okay with you, Whiskey?
