The Milky Way series RP group (PMT-PFT all species, open)

[Kreanoltha]

Eh, elves provecti, and vampires all look basically humanoid. They're all taller than humans. Elves have pointed ears. Provecti are shorter and more muscular. Elves and vampires are immortal. Vampires are nearly impossible to kill and need the blood of humanoids. There's a lot of other differences, but they're all rather lanky.

Vampires can take Nostromo's hypervelocity rounds to the knee and be turned to a slightly fine mist. Titanium mist nonetheless, but mist anyway.

No doubt, so long as it was moving too fast for him too react.

Tamashki. Another.

Tamashki stand between 2.13 to 2.43 metres tall. They are extremely thin, with elongated arms, large craniums, have no ears, mouths, or noses, and are somewhat muscular. Their hands have three very long fingers ending in particularly sharp claws, and a thumb. Their feet have three short, stubby toes ending in claws. Their skin varies between grey and black.

Those remind me a little bit of the Scarrans from Farscape.

[The Nuclear Fist]

Those remind me a little bit of the Scarrans from Farscape.

Taking into account the fact that the Tamashki weigh very little, move very gracefully, do not breathe (as they absorb air through the skin like plants), and do not speak, they are easily one of the quietest, stealthiest races in the universe.

Considering that the Slaar and the Tomesh refer to them as the 'Dark Ones' or the 'Living Shadows', this makes sense.

It helps that females and males are identical, and the only thing that really differentiates Tamashkis is their height and their shade of grey.

I just meant that the shape and tone look a bit like them. I always thought the scarrans were really cool.

They look like lizards to me.

Well, they were reptiles.

So, what does everyone's primary race look like?

My race look almost exactly like humans, except with cybernetic upgrades. All have a small Ansible in their brains to allow instantaneous communication to other members of the species. Also, they have implants in their eyes that allow video feeds and audio to be put directly in the brain.

The PFT race has more cybernetic upgrades, due to them being introduced naturally into the DNA of the species. So they have small bluish filaments where veins and arteries would be, and all bones and muscles are backed up by metal and cybernetics. So essentially, it is almost a biotic from Mass Effect, except there is no force-like powers present. However, they are usually faster and stronger then the average human, and can last longer until breaking.

Also, they consciousness of a person can be uploaded to data banks stored in another universe, so a wealth of information can be accessed at will by living members of the species.

That's exactly what Dolmhold has.

Dolmhold is a hell of alot more advanced though.

Bullshart. I came up with this on my one, and his are more of a consciousness that exists between two bodies. Mine are more of a cybernetically upgraded body, but the databank storage was inspired by the transfer of consciousness. And my government style is a consensus reached between every citizen, participating through ansible. And by the way, mine is MUCH smaller then his, but the soldiers are trained to be the best at what ever it does, and the technology is designed to be the best, but again, a very small military.

Dolmhold has the small but powerful approach as well. Direct democracy, the semi-collective mind. Fits to a tee.

[Gar Akaru]

Okay, what is with all these similarities? I had no idea who Dolmhold was before yesterday. I hate coincidences.

[Kreanoltha]

RP idea. FT Film Noir Detective RP.

[Hladgos]

RP idea. FT Film Noir Detective RP.

Odd. But interesting.

[Adventus Secundus]

Well, this RP of my own making could definitely serve as a 'border war'

Although I'm not sure where the time fits...

(appertaining to RP discussion on previous page )

Well, the idea is that it would have that same sort of style. Back alleys, trench-coat wearing detectives, corrupt cops, cigar chompers, hot broads, and tommy guns. Well, sort of on that last one.

It's not part of the RP group, so I wont link it to this thread. However, you can ask some of those guys if they want to join here. I've got another thread coming up fairly quick.

[Versail]

can i have bio weapons like the flood from halo

Yup.

[Versail]

yeah

[Trinitia]

Nation Name: The Terran Collective
Population: early FT- 450 billion Mid FT- 1.07 trillion Late FT- 8 trillion
Government type: Decentralized 'Internet,' Anarchy in a certain sense
Economy base:

The Collective has no form of economic transaction within itself. Resources are applied where needed, and information exchange occurs at light-speed between members. With the outside world, contact is limited to a few trading ports in the Antares System. The Jovian moon of Europa also features a small colony which is open to foreign interaction.

Species percentage in nation: Data is irrelevant. Many chemical and physical modifications have rendered classification by species as useless.

Tech base: A little Zerg influence, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, WH40K, mostly my own though
Weapon types:

Psychic weaponry, Biological weapons

Area controlled:

EFT: a large cluster of systems (700 ish)
MFT: approximately 5000 star systems
PFT: The Huangquan Galaxy and the neighboring Ragnarok Galaxy are under the Collective's control (combined, these galaxies are only 75% of the size of the Milk Way)

Amount of habited planets: EFT: 5724 MFT: 96243 PFT: 80 billion
Amount of claimed planets: EFT: 6701 MFT: 107847 PFT: 80.00002 billion
Space Fleet size size: ≈2 million
Capitol ships: 1,000
Frigates: 90,000
Bombers/starfighters: 900,000
Drones: 1 million
Superweapons:

The Purge: bioweapon capable of extinguishing life from entire solar systems. Initially beginning as a spore, the creature/s then grow, before gaining critical mass. At that point, an emergent neural network emerges, allowing for basic thought processes. Upon fully infecting a planet, the growth can then hijack artificial transport vehicles to spread itself further, continuing the life cycle.

Manifold Disruption: you'll have to see

Past RP's:

Punk Wars
The Energy Wars

Trinitia is accepted.

Yay. Is there a specific RP I should join? Some are closed and others look like they've developed significantly (jumping in late may not be wise).

We have two RP's that are going to be ready soon, so keep an eye out.

[Dolmhold]

I'm just checking Trinithia's numbers, and for the EFT-FT Eras (in terms of territory), it seems excessive, but that's my opinion. My technology may be the key factor making us different then.

I am planning for Dolmhold to begin as a small and insignificant nation in PMT, going to become the UEFP's sidekick in EFT, and becoming one of the major powers in FT, but PFT I still have to reconsider. I mean, I still outclass everyone in PFT, big time.

What do you mean outclass?
