Hey, this looks really cool. I just submitted a character for your approval. I set him up to be the second in command of Roz's team.

Sneakyrio- Very nice! It's obvious that a lot of effort went into creating him. I'm sorry that I wasn't finished putting up the character sheet. ^^; -got tired and went to bed- Bad Slayer! Although, you've got much more details than required anyway, so blammo! Accepted. He'll be an interesting addition to the team. X3

Bromander Shepard- Of course you can. ^^

Note: I should have Roz's profile up in a few hours. I've only delayed because I'm redrawing her picture. The old one is well... old.

Bromander Shepard? As... "interesting" as that sounds, I think I'm out; an eight-person RP (or even an eight-character RP in which one character ((slayer of yacks, I believe)) has 3 characters) isn't going to work out for three reasons:
1) A player who controls three characters, while others have one or two, is like playing a game of chess in which one character moves three pieces per turn, while others move the standard once.
2) If there is no posting order, the most adamant player (even worse if they have multiple characters) is free to run havoc, haverdashing about and just generally filling an RP with long walls (or useless lines) of text that no one actually wants to read four-five times everytime they log in, or get yelled at for simply skimming/skipping.
3) If there is a posting order, then 8 characters (if three are assigned to one character, then I would assume 6 players) are going to have to be relied upon to post regularly-when their turn to post comes around. This can be murder on an rp; the wheels of government grind slowly; the wheels of a posting-order are almost ground to a complete stop.

I just wanted to bring this everyone's attention; be prepared to deal with either one or two of these problems. It isn't great, but it is how things work. I wish you all luck with your RP; everyone needs it.
If you kill Callen, I'm going to kill you, and then Quinn. My penguin army shall rise from the crumbles of the great Cookie war of Elderon IV, and rue the day you ever did displease me you will!

Nevermore- I frankly have no idea what you are talking about. I'm only playing two characters because as a Co-GM, it would be easier to help direct the plot if I had one character on the science team along with Roz. He doesn't have a lead role, but he can help input ideas for the Science team. No one has three characters and I happen to be fond of longer, more detailed posts. It's a show of effort and interest.
This is really the first time I've run a roleplay on this particular site, so it's vastly trial and error for me, however, I've been in plenty of roleplays where characters are needed, but the slot isn't filled, so someone has to step in and play three, four, or more characters. This especially happens with NPCs. I'm guilty of creating vast casts of characters to flesh out a universe.
Frankly, if you had concerns about how I chose to run the roleplay, you could have PMed me instead of posting here. We are only here to have fun and if the roleplay collapses beneath our feet, then we will learn and rebuild from the wreckage.

Thank you, and have a lovely day.

To All-- I can't seem to figure out how to forward messages on this site, but Brock10 also has a say on our cast. ^^ I'll keep you all updated on changes that may need to be made.

Bromander Shepard- Bah, I understand. I've had to draw all my pictures and I really can't draw a Krogan to save my life. I can hardly manage a Turian. -headdesk- Roz is taking far too long to doodle. I should already be working on Karin. Regardless, I think he's good, even with the adorable Grunt face.

Hey everyone, I'm the other C)-GM! This is my first time doing an RP ever, so bear with me! I'm an avid Mass Effect, Star Wars, Dragon Age, Game of Thrones(a song of fire and ice) and general RPG fan! Feel free to PM me or Slayer with any questions, concerns, ideas for the plot, etc. Impressed with the characters we have got so far, and I'm looking forward to a great RP! Me and Slayer are thinking of this planet for the RP, let us know what you think! (We are starting the RP on Omega, if you didn't guess!)

Hey everyone who's a merc, can I just ask a question? How did you all meet Roz? Why? And to my partner, Slayer, why did you agree to partner with this group of a Krogan, a Reaper-Man and a vengeful Turian Engineer? What do you like about them? Sorry, this'll just give me a better feel for your characters(they're already amazing, just curious). Thanks again,
Brock10.

HA! Finally! Jeezus.... -headdesk- Now to do Karin. Roz's story/personality looks weak. May rewrite it at some point... if I'm not overly lazy. ><;; Should probably explain the whole 'Scarlet Rose' thing. Probably the darkest--and most interesting--aspect about my dear Roz...
Roz: -rolls eyes- I've gotten over the whole 'temporary insanity' thing. I'm fine with humans now.
Shush, you.

Duck-I quite like Ranek. He feels very Turian.
Roz: What is that supposed to mean?
^^;;; I mean he's a very believable Turian. I can't wait until he's developed more.
Roz: Uh-huh.
