Do we have a system already? or is it still in development.
Hmm, one more thing. You said in a previous post that all the races would be in the same sector of the galaxy so that they would come into contact with one another. That's actually not nescessary at all given that the mass relay network stretches across the entire galaxy and allows for almost instant travel from one end of the milky way to the other. (the quarian home system for instance is almost on the opposite side of the galaxy from council space yet they were in contact) It is true the galaxy is vast but the network, while large, is alot more limited. I have no fear we'd not run into eachother.
1. Tell me how you found it and what you know. Like the last guy, I'm not going to allow you to know everything about reapers. 2. Depending on votes they will either stay or we go with the idea you came up with. 3. Thanks for the approval of the dice roll. This list may not be in order so play some "match this"

The Kimo found a copy of liara's warnings (now known to them as 'the shepard') when they discovered a Turian military vessel on a world they intended to settle. Like it says in my nation sheet, those Turians survived the war and tried and failed to carve out a new existence somewhere. The discovery heralded a golden age for the Kimo but it also brought with them the warning of the reapers. Information from the Turian ship's databanks revealed what had happened to them, including a complete record of the Reaper war as experienced by the people onboard. They also found a copy of Liara's warning through which The Kimo learned of commander Shepard and his/her deeds up until the point where Liara made them. (Which was just before the battle of earth. And given that very few ships and even fewer ground troops made it back from that battle, the Turians onboard the ship they found had little knowledge of what exactly transpired there.) They also learned of the crucible and how to build it but given that liara had no idea what exactly it is or what it does, neither do the Kimo and like I said, actually building the thing would require too many resources and that is not something the Kimo government will put any effort into when they don't know what the thing will even do. They know that the citadel is the 'catalyst' and that it is a massive station that used to be the seat of all galactic government as well as a backdoor for the reapers (they know shepard's story afterall) but given that the reapers moved the thing to earth and god knows where else after that, they have no idea where to find it, nor do they have the intention of going to look for it since that might expose them to whatever else lurks in the darkness of space. In short, the Kimo know everything Liara did prior to leaving for earth as well as what the Turians knew. they know about indoctrination, the existing reaper variants, husks, etc. They have alot of knowledge (but that doesn't mean that the reapers couldn't have come up with a few new tricks in the many centuries/millenia since the last cycle, *hint hint* ;p) Also, and this is kind of a big thing. If this rp follows mass effect 2-3 logic the cycle comes every 50.000 years in which case the Kimo know when the reapers will come but if it follows Mass effect 1 logic, the reapers will come whenever they deem gamactic civilisation advanced enough to be harvested, in which case the Kimo's guess is as good as anyone's. (if you ask me, mass effect 1 logic is the better one since I believe that the 50.000 years limit is kind of dumb because there are absolutely no guarantees that sentient lifeforms will grow to the desired level somewhere in the galaxy within that arbitrary timeframe. It's also alot more interesting because it leaves everyone in the dark as to when the reapers arrive.)


Wow, I didn't check the site for a few days and stuff's kicked into gear! That's good, very good. I'll be checking in daily or once every two days depending on how busy I get from now on. Anyway, to adress a few points. I'm ok with a system of die rolls to determine combat though it has to be fair. But I'm not quite sure I like having all the old races there as well. Perhaps a few that managed to survive would work. The Asari or the Krogan would probably be the most likely to survive since Asari can reproduce with partners from every other race as well as themselves and the krogan because they reproduce like crazy and can get their numbers back up really fast after a major crisis nearly wipes them out. (though admitedly that would only work if in this cannon the genophage was cured.) The others wouldn't stand that much of a chance with perhaps the humans being the exeption (we're basically space orks after all ;p) One last thing I would like to add is that my race (the Kimo) know about the reapers from evidence they've gathered after finding one of Liara's warnings aboard an ancient Turian ship and are taking the threat they pose very seriously. This means they also have the plans for the crucible though they have no intentions of building it since it would absorb huge amounts of resources and not serve any clear purpose (since even liara didn't know what that thing does) Now this doesn't mean that my people are all powerful reaper killers that have all the evidence and answers. They don't. In fact, they have only really used those warnings to effectively support their intense militarisation on the field of public opinion. To put it plainly, the reapers are boogiemen to the Kimo, serving only to scare the people into allowing the central government to have massive fleets which they use to keep the various systems in line. having said all this, I'm still very much looking forward to starting.
I'm still in. And looking forward to it.
A question I would like to ask as well ;p
happy Newyear! ;p
Merry Christmas everyone!
right ;p I may have overreacted a little then.
Happy hollidays everyone ;p I'll see you again when it all dies down.
