Captain's Log, Stardate 2254.8.  After a brief layover at Vulcan we're heading for the colony of Serenade V to drop off supplies and check on the well being of the colonists.  After that, we plan to head towards Station K-2 for a duty patrol around the outer territories.  Ship and crew are functioning well, and no problems have been reported.




This is something I've wanted to try for a while now, and hope it'll work out well enough.  The idea is to take the World of Darkness system and apply it towards the Star Trek universe, with a horror/mystery plot to it.  Of course not everything is going to translate well but I'll mark any changes we need to make and all that.  I hope there's enough interest because I really want to have some fun with this and want a group of bright-eyed, eager young men and women who will naturally be butchered alive by some horrible disfigured alien XD just kidding.  I do plan to include a hell of a mystery in here that must be unraveled, and I'll make it easy enough and approachable enough so that you don't have to be a complete Trek nerd to understand what's going on.

I've been craving a Trek-ish RP for a while now, but I'm only passingly familiar with the WoD system. If that's alright, though, I'd love to roll a character up!

It's a darker system, at least the backstory is.  It fits much better, at least in my opinion, than Pathfinder, given that WoD is a modern game.  If anyone spots any problems please let me know.  I've been scrambling to try and fix any errors I made XD

Yeah, I played the Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines game on PC, so I'm somewhat familiar with the backstory, I've just never played the pen and paper version.

What class of ship will be using?

Also what time period? More specifically year.

We'll be using the USS Madrid, NCC-1879.  Miranda-class vessel, she's one of the newer ships and so still has that new starship smell.  The stardate is 2254.83, November 1st, 2254 at 6:43PM.  I'm using the stardate format from the new movie so the year is broken down into decimals.  Stardate 2254.84 will be November 3rd at 10:33AM, 2254.85 will be November 7th at 2:24AM.  I'm not really gonna make you pull out a slide rule to compute this, this was just my OCD kicking in x.x

I would really like to see some more character sheets so please, if you're at all interested in play, send me a character sheet.  I can't justify running a game if there's only one other person submitting a character sheet.

Because perfect is boring, flawed is king and Romulans rule.  :P

I am reading up on the ruleset again for nWoD, haven't played it for about three years or more. I'll be back shortly with a character, until then wish me luck!
