[The Changeling Horde]

Using the format in the reaper war section fill in your operatives info below, please leave some space between characters and place them all 1 post. You can edit it later with new info.

I have decided to list the racial benifits in response to some confusion.

Humans: jack of all stats being fairly well rounded they prove not bad at any paticular thing but not really the best at anything outside of their class.

Turians: leg shape leads to be more agile and focused eyesight allows better acuracy with precision weaponry ( rifles both assult and sniper rifles) however their genetic make-up makes special medical and consumables recources needed for survival.

Salarian: due to short lives and above average intelligence they get a boost to skills associated with their class however strength is lower then average 

Asari: posses biotic abilities across the race to some degree or another, this bonus is determined by how old they are....they don't really have any paticular weakness besides the fact that almost every race wants to hit on them.

Aquarian: strong bones lead to a lower risk of internal injury, however if said injury ocurs medical treatment becomes extremely difficult if not life threatening without the proper tools.

Bactarian: muttiple eyes gives bactarians a better awareness of the enviroment around them...racism seems to be almost genetic however as every bactarian seemingly has a grudge against one race or another (likely humans).

Krogan: naturally very strong and durable they posse as the best warriors in the galaxy....if their blood rage did not get in the way leading to a injury causing a krogan to go beserk trying to kill every enemy or thing in their way.

Volus: naturally short causing less visiblity by enemies and opens up more cover to them than normal races, however being short leads to not being able to run as fast as others and any major damage to their suits and they quite literally explode due to diffrent especially in pressure.

Drell: naturals at stealth, however drell are not tanky not lasting long in open combat.

Elcor: big brutes so strong that they are used as heavy weapons platforms and durable as a rock, however they lack the ability to express emotion to other races without outright saying it leading to social skills being stunted outside of other elcor.

Hanar: big, fragile, jelly fish looking race that are the worst Grammer nazis in the universe, however they are able use mutiple tendrils to do things such as use mutiple handheld weapons at once, use biotics, and other tasks all at the same time.

Quarians: being naturally skilled with tech while they are in a party the groups gear performs more effectively and risks of jamming or breaking become very low, however very fragile with even minor wounds possibly left untreated leading to life threatning infections.

Vorcha: very adaptive to surroundings and are able to survive the most grievous of wounds, however they are not the most educated nor good at social situations.

Geth?: machine race proves strong and durable with bonuses to tech and weapons made by their race, however they are vulnerable to anti synthetic countermeasures such as emps, computer viruses, and hacking and are not really seen in the best light. More pros and cons very by platform.

 ??:biotics present unlike any other race, bonuses with weapons made by their kind, very durable, however likely shot on sight considering the race they come from.

[The Changeling Horde]

The mercs: hired by the alliance to help with the efforts of the operatives for a number of reasons they have no loyalty to any faction, bit are there to get the job done and achieve their goals.

If you guys need a example to set yours up like follow mine. Remember you don't need all classes but if you feel like you may need one yourselves include it.

Carry weight:low
Background:All Tobor wanted was a home...not some ship he would stay on for years but a physical home on a planet for his wife and kids and with the recent geth quarian peace it seems to be a reality, however now that he has his home he needs to go and protect it for his wife and child...even if it is far away the shadow of reapers ever grows and it is people like him who have to go out and make a difference.

Instead of sentenceing him to death by fighting on the front lines he was offered a job as a operative in a team in a sector in the middle of nowhere for a bunch of credits...seeing no other option he took the job begrudgingly.

class:Infiltraitor
race:drell

Baron von het
class:vanguard

weapon proficiency:shotguns
gear:recipt from extranet purchases (1 combat grade Volus atmosphere suit equipped with drives for short time shield bubble and cloaking technology along with shield emitter matrix able to recharge others sheilds, 1 middified edvisicator shotgun for volus use, experimental biotic amp from unknown source)

He is here now in efforts to find not a suicidal front to fight on.


These are examples and also my team...Remember you do not have to have all classes but you need atleast 6 operatives in all you can select from for a mission.

He fought in the Krogan Rebellions and personally slaughtered thousands of Turians. Despite his best efforts, he alone could not stop the Turians and the Salarians.

It got him recognition from the Blackwatch and has since jpined in dozens of operations that we can only speculate on.

Guys, I'll post the other two later. I'm dry on ideas at the moment.

[oasisa]

NOTE: None of the characters on this page was originally from Oasisa, but recently came there, conincidly in pairs of two, quickly given Citizenship and employment by thr Protecter of Oasisa himself

Name: Mellisa
class: Enginner
Race: Human
weapon proficiency: shotgun
Gear:basic gear (armor from the ships tradesmen association, Katana shotgun, drawing of a starship she is designing)
Racial traits: jack of all stats being fairly well rounded they prove not bad at any particular thing but not really the best at anything outside of their class.
carry weight class: medium

Background:Brought here by her Asari friend Sansha, and was brought to Oasia by Sansha, an enginnering student who was soon to become a apprentice in her fathers shipping business, Sansha convinced her to join the military and get some special forces training for the reason of job benefits, and later to defend Oasisians (and hopefully get a ship named after her).



Name: Cecil
class: Adept
Race: Human
Weapon proficiency: Pistols
Gear:basic gear (Carnifex pistol, light plated, yet flexible llight armor with muted dark red symbols on it, radio script, necklace with a red circle on it)
Racial trait: Jack of all stats being fairly well rounded they prove not bad at any paticular thing but not really the best at anything outside of their class.

carry weight class: weak (1 below medium)

Background: Radio DJ by trade, he travels from planet to plant with his friend Turrian friend "Gary", who he has secret crush on (and potential love interest), and broadcasts as a local radio host at cities across the Galaxy. He is enraptured with the supernatural and the Elterich, and has studied his current biotic abilities with monks in order to "see beyond". Due to the recent conflict with the Repears, he decided to bring his friend Gary along with him to Oasisia, where he heard SCP'S inhabit. He accepted the job offer from the Protector partly to help pay bills, partly because of the Protector's mentioning of an unknown and Elterich past of the Reapers.






Name: Gary
class: Infiltrator
Race: Turian
Weapon proficiency: Sniper rifle and smg
Gear:basic gear (Mantis sniper rifle, rifle, sniper academy grade amour, head mask (think ski mask), padding to reduce sound, lucky coin)
Racial trait: leg shape leads to be more agile and focused eyesight allows better accuracy with precision weaponry ( rifles both assault and sniper rifles) however their genetic make-up makes special medical and consumables resources needed for survival.

carry weight class: weak (1 below medium)

Background: If Gary were human, you would say he is the stereotypical redneck or hillbilly. He grew up in the mean streets, and yet somehow has an excellent marksmanship skill (it is rumored he studied under a sniper master, though all he will refer to when asked how he got is skills is "the guy who did my train'in". However he got his great training, it shows with his excellent skill with the sniper rifle. He met Cecil when he saved Cecil's life from the hit squad of a local drug dealer that Cecil had made fun of too many times. When Cecil asked why Gary why he saved his life, Gary said "Because I like shootin' stuff". After they escaped the planet, Gary has accompanied Cecil where he goes, partly as a bodyguard, but mostly because he is his friend. When asked about why he follows Cecil around, he said "Caus' I like him, and he don't he don't make fun of me". Gary is insanely loyal to Cecil to a fault. When Gary followed Cecil to Oasisa, he helped the current recruits for the special operatives position get their job by causing a distraction via sniping bottles outside, causing a direction. When later asked by security why he did that, Gary said "Caus' Gary told me to, and I like shoot'in stuff", though Gary insists this was a just a suggestion out of desperation to get the job. The Protector approved the recruits, because any recruits who are so desperate for a job that they would risk sniper fire for it (or go to jail over it) would likely be desperate enough to fight the Repears for a paycheck.



Name: Sasha
class: Sentinel
Race: Asari
Weapon proficiency: assault gun
Gear:basic gear (huntress armor (gift from her mother for joining the military), vindicator rifle, secret love note to Melissa)
Racial trait: Posses biotic abilities across the race to some degree or another, this bonus is determined by how old they are....they don't really have any paticular weakness besides the fact that almost every race wants to hit on them.

carry weight class: strong (1 above medium)

Background: Madly in love with Mellisa (Melissa doesn't know), she switched to Melissa engineering program from her own adept training just to be with her, over her mothers objections. Later she convinced Melissa to join the military, with again the secret motive of being around her. After a recent fight against the Reapers, Melissa was shaken up, so Sansha brought Melissa on vacation to Oasisia, and when the call for help came out, she convinced Melissa to to hoin to protect the Oasisans she just met. No points for guessing her motive.



Name:Kerg
class:solider
race:krogan
weapon proficiency: shotguns and assault rifles
gear: brought in on his person (krogan battle armor, claymore shotgun, strikker rifle, a stylized drawing of Stacy, a heart locket with Stacy's picture in it, which can only be opened by him)
Racial traits: Naturally very strong and durable they posse as the best warriors in the galaxy....if their blood rage did not get in the way leading to a injury causing a krogan to go beserk trying to kill every enemy or thing in their way.

Carry weight:very strong
Background: Unfocused, distractable, and tendency to think about interests for a long time (though no head for planning), Kerg is a bit unusual for a stereotypical Krogan. He is never the loyal and trustworthy and has great desire to help his fellow Krogans. Hence why he signed up for infantry duty on his homeworld. However, he flunked out of training due to his poor memory and unfocused nature. Having no where else to turn, he did want many Krogans do and joined a mercenary squad, who is surprisingly bonded with despite his outwardly antisocial and quiet nature. However he was betrayed by his group on a mission, only to be saved by a human mercenary named Stacy via a tip off from her. After trapping and killing both of their respective squads, they ran with the remaining treasurary of each group and ran, making ends meet (and occasionally profit) from mercenary work. After getting outcompeted by their competitors on Illium in the Taigawa empire, they overhead a tourist on vacation from Oasisa, and decided to head there to get away from their competitors, clear their heads, and hopefully find some work. The call for assistance from the Oasisan Protectorate came as a pleasant surprise to them, as they are in much need of work. Kerg an Stacy are a couple (especially a battle couple).






Name: Stacy
class: Vanguard
Race: Human
weapon proficiency: assault rifle
Gear:basic gear (m7 avenger, assault rifle, formfitting armor that looks like a cross between a medieval knight and a super hero costume (without the cape, obviously), list of "Things will we buy and do when we are Filthy rich", a heart locket with Kerg's picture in it, which can only be opened by her)
Racial traits: jack of all stats being fairly well rounded they prove not bad at any paticular thing but not really the best at anything outside of their class.
carry weight class: medium

Background: Formerly a housewife via marriage to a "generous" (to her father, anyways) and abusive business man, she decided she rather shoot than be be under his heel as maid, cook, and object. After her former husband died in an "accident", she raided the household funds and got into mercenary work. After working for some myonginist employers who always wanted to get "friendly" with her, she tipped off Kerg about the trap her own team laid and Kerg's team's betrayal of him. After killing both teams, Stacy decided she liked Krogans better than human males, especially Kerg, and teamed up with Kerg as a mercenary couple throughout the galaxy. After falling on hard times due to competition, Oasisa seemed more of a place to lie low until Oasisa called for mercenary work. She is more focused than Kerg, and helps them do their planning together.

[The Burke Islands]

Hey, I'm gonna be taking a little break from all these RPs, you can start without me, I might join again in the future because currently RL isn't allowing me much time on the forums…
