Interest Check - Mass Effect 1/2?

[Le RandomBloke]

RandomClown, what do you mean by "What's the point"? The point of the Rp? It's fun  ;D

And no, it doesn't have to be characters you encounter in-game. You can make your own, I'm Shephard but I guess that counts as making my own =p
You can use characters from the game aswell but it's not a rule.

Sorry, poor choice of words. Don't worry, I role-played quite a few times and certainly enjoy it. By what's the point I more or less meant, what is the bigger picture of it all. Improvisation is awesome, don't get me wrong, just trying to get a feel what I'd be getting myself in to as to how I want my character to be. I have a vague concept though, just want to make sure I'm not missing anything, because I get the feeling I am. :P

Well, my idea is something like a war starts out between the mercs, and that involves other people as their fights get in the way of innocent people's lives, they kill powerful people & that brings in other organisations, etc.

Or just the good old collector's story =p

I'm in as well. Got any requests as to what sort of character you'd like me to be?

[eva.111]

Well, if you want to be ... You can be on Shephard's sqaud or crew (or be someone who joins it later)  :-)
But it's up to you.

Here's the character sheets thread :

Both characters are approved btw. Arenda (thebobmaster), and Philip Ayres (Major Major). Who wants the honour of starting?  :-)

I would be interested in joining in with this if it is still possible (as a Quarian if that's also possible). I'd just like to ask what sort of posting rate you'd be expecting (I just want to be sure I can commit to the game fully and not disappoint people by falling behind etc).

[eva.111]

Yeah traveller5k it's still open & I want someone to start it 'cos I'm not too good at starting posts (I'm never good at starting things - the same with everything I do almost).
There's a link to the character sheets thread like 3 posts back, & you can have any race, any occupation, etc.

The post rate I'm expecting is atleast a post a day, but I'm not really bothered as long as it doesn't take like a week to make a little post =p

& post quality I'm not too bothered about either because I've just came back so my posts aren't likely to be massive.

[Karma]

I won't be able to manage that kind of post rate, and since the game just doesn't have enough direction for me, I'll back out now.

[Major Major]

I hope no one's asking me tostart; I've no idea how to.
