The year is 2017, twenty years since Stargate Command was instituted. Earth's citizens still have no idea about the Stargate and the various threats on their planet over the past two decades. Atlantis was removed from San Francisco harbor in mid-2009 when it was decided by the IOA that Atlantis's purpose was better served back in the Pegasus Galaxy- continuing to fend off what Wraith were leftover, exploring the planets there, and expanding the territory explored by Earth. So, in a nutshell, Earth's exploration of the three accessible galaxies- The galaxy of the Tau'ri, the galaxy previously known as the Ori Galaxy, and the Pegasus Galaxy, has increased nearly unhindered over the past eight years- limited only by the budgets set for the Stargate program.
As for technologies, the governments of Earth have begun to sneak technologies gathered over the years into the technologies used on earth, starting with defense tech and then medical. Even so, we can hardly say we've explored the full extent of the the Asgard knowledge planted on the Daedalus so many years ago, as well as the knowledge to be gathered at Atlantis. There are whole teams of researchers designated to studying these databases.
Around 2012, General Hank Landry retired from his oversight of the SGC. From here, Colonel Samatha Carter was promoted to General, as Colonel Cameron Mitchell expressed little interest in having a 'desk job' when he while he was still perfectly capable of Gate-Travel, along with the fact that Carter had been diligently serving the SGC for several years longer than Mitchell. With the twentieth anniversary of the Stargate Program swiftly approaching, General Carter has shown no signs of wishing to resign.
As for Atlantis's command, Woolsey resigned three years ago in 2014. He was replaced by one Dr. Garren Michaels, a representative of the UK who gained prominence in the IOA over the years since Atlantis landed on Earth. ((Yeah, a totally made up character. XD))
The Stargate program is creating new teams in commemoration of it's twentieth anniversary. The SGC will create three new teams, making it's team total a sound thirty. The Atlantis expedition will create four new teams, giving it twelve. This is where we come in.
Our characters will make up SG-28. My character, Colonel Rachel Jacobsen, will head this team. The other three (or four) members will be either civilian or military as you so choose. You can also have an alien character be your team member, however there can only by one alien member. So, if you want that spot, type out your profile fast. I will not reserve the spot; I must see your character bio first.
As for our missions, I know that Qetesh (The User, not Vala/Qetesh) wanted to include the Goa'uld somehow. I'm still brainstorming, as including an already defeated enemy would require some great creativity. I'm not big on bringing back any Replicators, though if we want to include them with a virtual shooting range in the SGC, feel free. As for the Wraith, if we want to see any of them outside of the Pegasus Galaxy, then I suggest you bring that up with me on the OOC or over PM. But the exact mission has not been detailed, as I would like to put together the team first. Any plot recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
As for character profiles her's the bio sheet:
Name:
Age:
Gender:
Appearance:
Ethnicity(Also includes alien races, if you're aiming for the alien spot):
Civilian/Military:
Rank(if military):
Designation (Weapons, Pilot, Scientist, etc. Basically what your job was before joining this team or as it was militarily. EX: Mitchell used to be a pilot):
Personality:
History (including whether or not they've previously served with the Stargate Program):
Extra (Anything else you want us to know):
Also, if the teams members all become taken, please continue to follow us until our plot has been fully established. We're going to need bad-guys when the bad-guy set has been officially established, along with other SGC and off-world characters.
As for my character, Colonel Rachel Jacobsen, her bio will come as soon as I've drawn out her picture. (I draw the appearance references of all of my characters, these days.)
Now, for the words you guys have been waiting for....
Users, you have a go!
While the Darkness is powerful and versatile, only the LIGHT has the power to give peace. While the Darkness numbs the pain, only the LIGHT can completely heal that pain. And while the Darkness makes the bad in the world seem less, bad it is only lessened because it immerses you in that badness, making you tolerant. The LIGHT may make obvious the bad, but with that comes truth and sight.
