I really want to do a shipwreck RP, at some point in the future. Maybe a crew is stranded out in a life pod or something. Anyone have ideas?

How would that include us without killing you?

Do you mean like the air or something? Shollogs usually carry respirator tanks when in a foreign atmosphere.

Ah. So Humans and these Shollogs can either battle it out or rescue you and hold you hostage negotiate their return terms.

Oh, you mean like since rebels and Feds would be in the rp. Well, maybe the ship is home to a meeting between the rebels and the feds. Something goes wrong and the ship starts pressurizing (or spacing, if you use my word). Most of the people make their way to a life pod, which is meant to provide a habitat in emergencies for long periods of time. Now all the characters would be forced to cope with one another and the harshness of space itself, in their isolated pod.

I can imagine a trooper or two in a pod, but a pod is too small. What about a pressurized area of the ship?

That would work better. It's not so much about fighting, it's more about story and tension. Having the representatives of both sides of the war trapped in this small area and forced to work together.

I'd still like a trooper. I'd probably have better posting quality with a Clone Trooper, where he reveals the life of a Clone, since day one, how cruel it is when they grow up and when they are off and on the battlefield. I plan to have him cry or something.

Yeah, maybe the trooper is a guard for the representative who dies in the depressurization. Leaving the trooper by himself with the other survivors. The ultimate goal of the rp might be to make it to the opposite end of the ship to where the lifepods are. Of course, they'll have to cross depressurized areas, and they'll need to think of a way to get across alive.

The Clones have helmets. He's used to being expendable, he can do something.

I've recently begun taking up my favourite hobby. Namely, drinking. My girlfriend got me a bottle of absinthe for my birthday as a joke and I just sort of forgot about it. I heard this stuff rots your teeth. Doesn't matter much to me, most of my teeth aren't real.

So what have I missed?

Hey guys, I just wanted to state something:

All Jericho have weak or virtually no immune system, due to gene mutations that occurred thousands of years ago, so you will normally find them wearing environmental suits to protect them from the viruses/bacteria/parasites in their environment.

They're screwed if they come to an Oogish world. Not only did Oogworld start with some nasty bugs, the Oog have been tinkering with them to make them worse for thousands of years, so what they consider a little cold could kill a Jericho....

Or a Hunzoi? I don't know.

Are they better or worse than Quarians?

I was thinking of basing a species off of the Quarians.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

Fairly well, considering alien diseases would require specific manipulation to be able to effect aliens.
