ANNOUNCEMENT: WE ARE SHORT 1 HUMAN FEMALE, CREW POSITIONS ARE STILL OPEN FOR UNIQUE CHARACTERS.

After playing through Mass Effect 3 I,m in the mood to start up a Mass Effect RP. My last RP kind of died thanks to member dropouts so I'm really in need of loyal members who might actually stick with the RP

As for the squad.....
What I Have: (I'll add members to the list as they join.)
Drell Male - CO, SPECTRE (Me)
Human Female - XO, Rank: Commander (Me)
Krogan Male - Mercenary (Me)
Batarian Male - Weapons Expert (Me)
Turian Male - SPECTRE, will join very late in Pt.1 (Me)
Turian Male Adept -  milovitch
Salarian Male Tech/Medic - Pentagious666
Human Male Sentinel - Genbu83
Human Male Vanguard - NinjaWeazel
Turian Male Shock-Trooper - Wargtass
Asari Vanguard - Odanrav

What I Need: (If, when we get enough members to start some of the needed roles aren't filled I'll use NPCs to play them)
A Quarian sex slave*
A Self-Aware A.I.*
A Human Female
Anything else is welcome as long as characters are unique, just ask me if you have any other roles in mind.

* - These roles wont appear till later in the RP after several missions are completed, so if you choose these, keep in mind you'll have to wait a while. I was going to just make them NPCs but I'll give members a chance to claim them.


Plot----
Part 1: Takes place about a year before the events of Mass Effect, it will center around a SPECTRE crew joining with the Alliance to track down an Alliance Spec-Ops soldier turned terrorist when they discover their own place in the brewing war with the Reapers.

With success in this RP I plan to make a sequel which will take place near the end of Mass Effect 3

Let me know if you have any questions.

Official RP Thread: Not much has happened yet so you're not too late to join in.

Name: Hailot Nylia A'Loma

Gender: Female

Affiliation: Alliance

Department: Asari Commando

Rank: (Major) Spectre

Class: Vanguard (Shotgun Speciality)



History: The offspring of a Krogan union, scientifically carrying over traits from the "father" of an asari coupling is anecdotal at best. Nylia is one of these compelling anecdotes, though whether her brusque manner and brutality are shaped by actual inheritance or simply her own attempt to pay homage to her Krogan parent remains to be seen. Her preferred method of combat more closely resembles that of a Krogan Battlemaster than the Asari Huntress, preferring an economy of motion and vicious upfront assault to quickly dispatch and terrify the enemy.

Her mother, Lysia A'Loma served as an intermediary diplomat to the previously Krogan controlled world of Garvug, primarily dealing with Clans Ganar, Hailot, Gatatog, and Drau. Her "father", a female Krogan by the name of Hailot Vecht was the primary face of the movement to push for induction into the Citadel Council, using Garvug as an example of Krogan adaptability and stability. An idealist, her case for the Krogan cause had precisely the opposite effect, the Asari and Turians taking note of the rapid reproductive capabilities of the Krogan as a terrifying indication of things to come. Hailot Vecht and her efforts were again, far too idealistic for a galaxy still unstable from the Rachni war.

Nylia's childhood through her first century saw the theft of her homeworld from the Krogan by Salarian corporate interests, the Krogan Rebellion and the introduction of the Genophage. Continued efforts for diplomacy by her mother were rebuked and according to the classified records on Thessia, Lysia was instrumental in a coup that resulted in the death of all fifteen members of the Hailot upper council, including Clan Master Grevit and his adviser Shaman Hailot Vecht.

What followed was a retreat back to Thessia by mother and daughter, her education in the other half of her parentage beginning in earnest. Like the little human girl raised by wolves, there were certain oddities that we too deeply ingrained in her psyche to be entirely expunged.

Too vicious and unfocused for the more delicate skills of the Asari Adepts, Nylia applied her biotic skills in a more brutal fashion, her unstable temperament lending concussive power to the vanguard disciplines. Noted for her tendency to wear yellow facial markings of a Krogan nature into battle, she spent the first thirty years of her tenure as an Asari Commando on assignment at a roving observatory on the surface of Tuchanka itself. With her passion for Krogan history and first hand knowledge of their customs (as well as her brutal nature) she was better suited than her mother to act as a intermediary between the Asari council and the Krogan Clans.

She became rapidly disillusioned with her position however, coming to realize that she was there not to negotiate between the two races, so much as simply keep the Krogan placated and silent. One of the few Asari to have claim and capability to the honor, she has undergone the Krogan Rite of Passage, suffering a catastrophic victory that claimed to lives of two of her Krantt in glorious combat.

The timing of this event is decidedly suspicious, as it was within three weeks of the cataloged date during which the Classified documents regarding the death of her Krogan parent were accessed. During a psych evaluation a century later, the Asari therapist seems to feel strongly that this was an attempt by Nylia to commit suicide, dying a Krogan's death to somehow atone for the sins of her mother. Despite the odds, she survived relatively unscathed however and seemed to find new purpose, a common after effect amongst Krogan who have survived the rite.

Tranfering back to Thessia, her military career from this point on becomes more in line with the Asari standard, providing heavy fire power assistance to infiltration teams and Council funded black ops. Most frequently called in as a Krogan specialist, she has the dubious record of the highest kill record amongst the Asari for her "father" species. Despite this, she refers to herself as Hailot Nylia, only resorting to using her mother's name when necessary.


It is noted that her mother is in the waning years of her life. At 973 years, she lives on Thessia, counting down the last few grains of sand left to her. No words have been exchanged between mother and daughter in almost five of those centuries.

Considering herself a Battlemaster, Hailot Nylia believes that the viciousness that she shows the Krogan to be her most sincere form of respect. Because of this fact and additionally her three previous "husbands" all being Krogan (and all deceased), some jokingly call her the "Little Thresher".

Infrequently involved in politics despite her growing age, she is an ever active voice for Krogan rights. With the ethics of a Krogan and the patient strategical eyes of an Asari Matriarch, she works beneath the Council as a Spectre, backing up her idealistic goals with brutal firepower and an exacting warrior's code.


Powers: Charge, Pull, Shockwave

Weaponry: Geth Plasma Shotgun / Scorpion Pistol

Sexual Orientation: Bisexual

Preferred Position: Dominate

Relationship Status: Widowed

Availability: Open to any relationships, Prefers Krogans though she has dallied with other races of Warriors.

Sounds interesting... I see you have someone apping an N7 Sentinel...  Any objections to another N7?  Vanguard, this time.

OHWceta

Post up your bio and I'll take a look.

We do have a vanguard but since she's an asari it'll really depend on your character having a unique set of biotic powers.

Hadrian, that punk! I almost forgot him... anyway sure, I might contribute!

Edit: I found the little bastard. Already was a pilot this time if I remember correctly, so I'll make some fitting re-writes.






NAME: Helmsman Faustus Caelius
RACE: Turian
CLASS: Sentinel Shock-Trooper
CLASS SPECIALIZATION: None

Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide

[Image brought to you by Meken @ DeviantArt, check him out if you like turians]

HISTORY: Faustus Caelius was born into a lesser family in the brink systems of the Hierarchy space. He was born with a twin sister, Fausta, who would become his closest friend. While their father was a prominent Executor on their homeworld, they lived in a spartan household without much luxuries due to their mother's wasting dicease that she had contracted due to the birth. It took many years and a lot of money to keep her alive and when she finally died, their father was murdered by a corrupt officer. The twins were enrolled into the Hierarchy orphans' legion when no other relatives were available.

From that moment on the twins bonded even closer, taking strength from the harsh training conditions that the legion lashed at them with. But while Fausta kept up a happy and outgoing personality Faustus became more and more like the officers of the legion, coldly calculating and emotionless. When it finally came forth that he had biotic capabilities the twins were separated and Faustus went through the torture of turian biotic discipline and training. He lost an eye to a nasty infection brought upon a vicious black eye given by one of the instructors and it was replaces with a cybernetic one. After several terrible incidents where trainers and instructors were injured by the hateful youngling, the Legion decided to send him to Palaven for disciplinary actions. Once there he was intercepted by an Asari who wanted to train him in a monastic tradition.

Ten years later, having mastered his inner beast, the asari returned him to the Hierarchy. He enrolled in the fleet and started training as a marine and shock trooper. His career culminated in a boarding action which lasted five hours and resulted in a successful conquest of the Terminus dreadnought Verulian. He was given high honours and a promotion for his remarkable service in the engagement.

Faustus had not seen Fausta for almost fifteen years when she contacted him. She was a ground commander at the point and told him she had found their father's murderer. Faustus rushed to Omega to meet up with his sister but found her bleeding to death at their rendevouz point. She told him that the murderer had gotten to her as well and told him the name of the culprit; Hadrian Cull, a former turian Executor now working with the Blue Suns. Swearing revenge, Faustus took her body back to their homeworld.

PERSONALITY: Faustus keeps calm even in the most heated situations, a trait which makes him an excellent combat pilot and sentinel. When taking part in ground operations he calmly advances under enemy fire, drawing their attentions away from team mates and at the same time having an intimidating effect. The discipline of self-sacrifice is so drilled into him by the years in the Legion that he keeps turning up in the infirmary after ground missions, making him a regular for the medics and doctors. But as he always reminds them, he doesn't pilot with his spleen.

Outside of battle he is very private and introverted, almost never speaking about himself or his background. He's seemingly emotionless and calculating, but it is but a barrier to hold back his inner beast. When that barrier finally falls he is prone to fits of wrath and cruelty aimed at both friend and foe alike. Faustus believes this to be something he must conquer with an ascetic mind and body, which has resulted in a distanced personality.

BIOTIC POWERS: Throw
TECH: Tech Armour
WEAPONRY: M6 Carnifex, M-12 Locust, M-100 Grenade Launcher

SEXUAL ORIENTATION: Straight
PREFERRED POSITION: Dominant
RELATIONSHIP STATUS: Single
AVAILABILITY: Open but will not be easy to get to.
