Guys calm a bit. We don't know what system Icekatze will declare. Give him time to make final introduction to the story and presentation of needed info.

Two at once.

Honestly, I was rather torn between both myself... I don't see why we couldn't do both at the same time. If nothing else, it may keep either or from getting stale.

Bascially, you have the character name, then their bio, then all the rest of their stats get spoiler'd. Also, I colored your character's name because we're each supposed to assign a unique color to our characters' speech. Feel free to pick your own color :P I just thought blue worked well :p

I know I'm pretty late, but I could go for any of the starship ones--those seem to be the most popular anyway.

Are we doing more than one? Should we vote on that?

They're all starship ones :P We've elected to do Icekatze's proposal which means the starships will be the DeSoto and Innalinzil. The next step is for the players to generate human and Loroi crew. (Like subphoenix and I.)

Personally, I think we should play two at the same time (assuming Martenzo is up for it) and I don't really see a need to vote. If you don't want to do two, only play in one >_>

EDIT: Hey Sub, I was just looking over your char and realised his rank is inconsistent. O1 means he's the first officer rank. In the navy, that's Ensign. But your char says Lieutenant which would be O3. If you want to meet in the middle, it would be Lieutenant Junior Grade - O2.

Very much needful of love and closeness in her life… something that her duties as a ‘Unsheathed’ have keep far from her. Known to be a somewhat troublesome soldier as her… "hot pants", lecherous drives get her into trouble more often than not. A VERY capable warrior and spectacularly dangerous with her powerful electrokinetic talants!

@icekatze

Just thinking. What are the professional levels of humans joining in mission?
6. Best of Bests
5. Next of the best
4. Jewels from masses
3. Good on their jobs
2. First's who appeared
1. Cheapest force
0. Something unpleasant crawling from under rock

hi hi

Well, most of the best of the best didn't make it when the Bellarmine was destroyed...

So I guess it is the Next of the Best or Jewels from the Masses.

So... is it decided to universally use Icekatze's system? I think it would be best for the PbP medium that we use the same game system for our on-line action...so characters and capabilities are easily quantifiable between games.

Code: Select all

Just a some thoughts of using of the codes. OOC talk inside code.
Sanzai inside spoiler, so players of humans don't get spoiled too soon.
A small nervous loroi was walking in the corridor followed by couple of humans. She arrive on same intersection on third time and stop to looks around.
SpoilerShow
"They are still after me!"
"Don't be afraid. We are in place. You can come here now. I can already sense you."
Her friend answered.
She look her behind and turns to left.
One of thugs smiled. "She is trapped."
His friend wasn't so sure. "I'm not sure about this. He could be calling her friends to help. They all are telepaths after all."
"They don't find her. Didn't you see that she is completely lost."

Perhaps we could put a shine on the "into the depths" RP from the old Digital webbing forums we had going and apply the new rules to it.... it is just a suggestion. perhaps someone could back up the Into the depths IC posts and the character pages before they delete them for all eternity...

Is it too late to get in on any of this? I would absolutely love to get in on this.

Are any campaigns still accepting players? Any using GURPS maybe even?

I love RP I just don't know how this would work.
