Love the mercenary attitude, but don't hold out for max price too long, events won't wait once the story begins.

I would love to join, simply because Preeya is in, and Legate somewhat is like one of her Legs already (somewhat literally xP), but I am really overloaded with stuff. Would it be a problem if Preeya just dragged Legate around with her, while I try to take part as much as my schedules allow me?

Of course Legate, the story won't start right away due to the Citadel LTD thread still going on. You're more than welcome to participate in whatever capacity you feel is best. The more geth the merrier, especially given the nature of cutting edge science and the potential dangers thereof.

XD) Technically Legate could stay with Preeya, being kinda 'dragged along' and whenever you feel like, you can drop a post or two. Would that be okay with you guys?

I cannot wait to experience this story once you've got all the details ready ^^ Do forgive for my slow replies I've been a little busy irl. BUT hopefully I should be able to write up a bio for all my characters! That way you'll be able to be more familiar with them and hopefully they won't throw any wrenches into the flow of your story ^^ If you do not mind I would love to heard what all you have planned out so far though!

Well Baychimocrew, right now I'm past just a general vague concept and now working on 'entry points'. How various characters will be entering the story or how the events will end up getting them involved. That means working out details regarding how dark energy relates not just to space travel, but long term stellar health, and most importantly, how will all of you end up getting sucked into the events to come. I'm also writing up new characters, including one that is already named, and one that will feature heavily in the future.
Here's a bit of an explaination as to why I decided to make the mass relay independence the main theme. I guess it started when I heard the two conversations Shep has with Aethyta and Legion highlight this, that the relays were a means of control and the spacefaring galaxy at large were too dependent on them. To me, the lack of innovation regarding the Mass Relays and FTL bugged the hell out of me, so instead of speculating and bitching, I've decided to make lemonade with Postwar asari recovering from the dual body blows that are the Athame Beacon and the Fall by attempting the previously unthinkable dream, achieving independent FTL travel. The asari know the most about dark energy and mass effect relay technology from an historical perspective, it makes sense that they'd attempt a project of this magnitude.
Here's the where, places I know that the WoR story will take place; Illium, Citadel, Rannoch, Nevos, Haestrom, and possibly Thessia and Gellix.
When; approximately a bit after the Citadel LTD thread, but if you want, I'll attempt to create threads with foreshadowing for those involved.
Who; of course all of you so far (baychimocrew, Preeya, Caroline, Bintar, Legate, Val'os, Laykalar, Naila, Taleeze and Freh'ya, and my characters Snow & Alystae.) As for NPC's a work in progress but one for certain is Fadilah N'Iasi. The terrorist group Daughers of Nadi will make their debut in an...explosive fashon. Characters I introduced on the old boards including the Lower Tayseri Elite, the crew of the Andvari from V.1 boards will make cameos, and the asari military will finally get a day in the sun, I am creating a field grade asari speaker(what they call the heads of huntress cadres) as well. I'm hoping to include a character from ME2 that was only mentioned also. All other creations, well, you're going to have to tune in and find out.

Alright that sounds pretty sensational to me! I think that this idea will be highly enjoyable and agreeable for all who play it! My crew of characters are sort of a civilian and unaligned merchant crew like sort of deep space couriers led by a fellow whose romanticized the idea of roaming the cosmos and getting into scraps and moving goods for people something akin to wild west vigilantes so getting them involved shouldn't be too hard. I assume that this is after ME3 that these people are researching this FTL technology? If so is there a particular ending to it you have in mind out of the three given OR do you have your own ending that you base this progression of events off of? Either way it's fine with me because I personally for awhile had been writing my own ending to ME3. OH and I should ask if there's anything that you do NOT want to happen in this rp? Like is there a specific fate you have in mind for this prototype engine of where it goes or is the FTL system already built into a ship?

Here's an update on this future large scale rp. It's a bit delayed due to current threads I'm involved in but I hope to get a few news articles up in the next few weeks as a bit of foreshadowing and foundation. It's still going to happen, just in the building stage still and wrapping up Snow's backstory threads. As for who's involved, we have this list.
I'll make sure to keep y'all up to speed with when and how it will begin.

Hey, this is a pretty interesting idea! I've always loved the whole 'large scale' epic RP adventure-type scenarios! I'm not sure if my character would fit though, but, he is a senior administrator and beurocrat within the UNAS/Alliance Government (at least within a Department, but would still warrant quite a few connections), and he does have quite a wide and intrinsic breadth of knowledge with regards to Medicine (both in practice, and in research), and to a limited extent, certain, research details from a defunct human terrorist cell (only by proxy was he involved with this though, mainly as a data collator and analyst when the Alliance had uncovered certain research they found from the run-down cell). Combat-wise... not so much .

@ jcb112: Well, I kinda think your character would fit in quite well. Maybe not work-wise but chat character- and focus-wise. But then again, there's need for medics anywhere, so I wouldn't really be surprised if he maybe was around one of the other participants so far. Alternatively your character could join the events by pure chance and then become a part of them naturally, as I for example plan for my character. (Hope that was at least a bit helpful and Snow doesn't mind me trying to be ^^) @ baychimocrew: Mind if Preeya joins your team for this plot? It appears that my play partner kinda vanished.

I'm 100 % fine with a brainstorming - I have not too much fancy planned for my character, yet some feedback would be very welcome. I'll call you later as soon as I have time.

Not at all preeya, sorry for not getting back at you earlier jcb. As for your doctor, he'd be more than welcome and his involvement can start with something simple and almost pedestrian, patching someone up and the person you're healing flat out lies to you about how he/she got hurt. As for your concerns about the ending baychimocrew, the three endings will be predicated on how you all play and the resulting consequences involved. Good decisions and initative in the rp will be rewarded, though not always immediately, bad ones...well, you get the picture. But for the sake of reiteration, no character will be killed unless by player consent, injuries however are fair game.
One teaser I am comfortable with sharing, one of the npc's will be a name mentioned in ME2, as for who it is, those I talked with about it please keep it to yourself.
