[This is still a really rough draft so bear with me please.]
IC Post: A single sleek black craft exited the relay. They did not know what to expect within this system but these beings were vigilant, weapons were armed and ready for anything that might confront them in the darkness of space. But it was quiet and the ship proceeded, this particular system had eight planets and a single planetoid that was furthest from the star that heated the system. This system was very diverse but the beings were not here to settle they were here for research, some smugglers back at a bar in the Citadel had spoke of a place full of technology from the ancients and they had gone to investigate.
One of the planets, a planet with a red tinge to it and the fourth planet from it's home star was marked due it there being the presence of underground structures, when the beings left the system and deemed it safe a research team would come to investigate. But what fascinated them the most was the third planet from the home star. In orbit was the wreckage of what appeared to be a great battle the ancients ships had been decimated by an unknown enemy this wreckage was marked for further study as well as it was a veritable treasure trove of information and the council would be pleased. But still the beings pushed forward hopefully looking for an answer as to who or what destroyed the ancient's and their civilization.
The ships crew wanted to go to the surface of this strange planet for further marking and the captain hesitantly agreed, a shuttle was prepped and the crew proceeded. Their questions of where and what the ancients had called this planet were answered "Welcome to Los Angeles, the most famous city on Earth." It said, but when pressed for more answers it would not answer only telling them that answer was not in it's programming. The Beings left with more questions than answers their report to the council was taken under consideration but the council deemed their mission to cost intensive and it was scrapped leaving Earth alone in the darkness of space, and the beings searching for answers.
OC Stuff: Sorry about all of that, anyways imagine a milky way galaxy where Shepard lost and the reapers won and continued the cycle of wiping out all sentient beings in the galaxy so more could grow. Now you the player are one of these new species, I don't care what Tech level you start out at be it tribal or space fairing as long as at some point all of you are on the same page. This will be entirely Player Driven so in the end what you change and affect will come to reflect you the player and the galaxy as a whole. Want to restart the council? Go for it, Want to try to unite the galaxy under one banner, that's up to you. Me as a gm will just be throwing random events your way as well as news, and maybe hints and signs to a reaper invasion it's up to you if you ignore them or not.
I want to make this fun for players who are new to the mass effect universe as well as veterans to the series, and i would greatly appreciate any feedback or support you have to offer. If you have an idea for the rp you want to mention mention it here. But as i said before this is still kinda a rough draft so please bear with me while we get this all set up.
