A Reaper lands on Nirn (Mass Effect/Elder Scrolls Hybrid)

[Belgarion98]

The Dragonborn defeated Alduin. But a knew threat arises. He disappears, and a Reaper touches down in the wilderness of Cyrodiil. Before the Empire can act, it destroys Leyawiin and Bravil, turning their inhabitants into husks. Now, the Empire and Aldmeri Dominion must band together to defeat this dire threat. Nobody knows how it can be defeated, but a band of adventurers knows this: They must do everything they can to survive. They must travel to the ends of Tamriel, searching for a fabled Dwemer weapon of mass destruction. Adventure and many dangers lie in their way. Will they survive?

Name:
Race (ONLY ES RACES):
Appearence:
Personality:
Background:
Skills:

Your character can be a skilled season veteran, though by Galactic terms that isn't much.

Standard Elder Scrolls lore applies, as the inhabitants of Tamriel know nothing of the galaxy.

Weapons: no guns, laser blasters, anything futuristic like that. Only ES weapons. There are no geth on this reaper. The husks don't have guns either, just a fatal hand of claws.

[Gideon Dragontongue]

I'm in.

Name: Gideon Dragontongue
Race (ONLY ES RACES): Breton
Appearance: Gideon has handsome features, stormy blue eyes, a goatee, and shoulder-length dark hair.
Personality: Gideon is a noble, caring Breton, possessed of a ferocious inclination to do what he thinks is right, regardless of the consequences. This tends to get him into trouble with the law, particularly among more corrupt governments. He hates both the Empire and the Thalmor intensely, and this can sometimes cloud his judgement.
Background: Dragontongue was a prince of Thymerock, a large Breton kingdom in the north. After his parents spoke out against the Empire, they and he were imprisoned indefinitely. Gideon escaped at the age of seventeen and headed for Skyrim, where he was captured trying to cross the border. He was taken to be executed, but managed to escape. He headed north to Winterhold, where he put his considerable magical talents to use and joined the College of Winterhold. He soon rose through the ranks to become Arch-Mage, after a incident with the Thalmor he only narrowly averted nearly lead to the destruction of the College.
Skills: Destruction, One-Handed, Restoration, Light Armor, Speech
Weapons: A mystical dragonbone sword named Sosbahlok, which leeches the lifeblood of its foes, and the Firestorm spell.

Sweet.
Remember, Magic/enchanted could damage or annoy the Reaper, but the only way to kill it is to find the Dwarven WMD.
Also, the Reaper is a camper (i.e. it stays by the bay of Bravil) but at a certain point I will move it northward towards the Imperial City, and the destruction of the Empire.
I will have a character, a mysterious ranger known only as Aragon, who has fire enchanted arrow and personality. He is the leader of the band.
We're a small unit of adventurers, only having taken down bandit bands and cleared Ayleid ruins.
Note: Once I feel we have a large enough band of Adventurers, teh quest will start. We begin in Cheydinhal, where the citizens are in a panic at this machine.

Standard RP rules apply. Don't godmod, in combat your character makes an action, I will decide whether or not it's successful.
Only thing left to say is Choose your Weapons

[Musicman247]

How will you decide what is successful? Will you be rolling die? If I join I want to make sure decisions are based on sheer luck and not the will of any one person.

[Belgarion98]

I'll roll some dice.

5-10= victory
1-5= death
11- above= injury

Everyone, welcome.
By the way,

Name: Commander Shepard
Bio: you know.

[Frost Mage]

This sounds amazing!
Name: Sorandil
Race: High Elf
Appearance: Long blonde hair, usually wearing a robe.
Personality: Slightly egotistical, very curious about the Arcane arts and in turn, the Reapers.
Backround: Sorandil comes from a broken family. He lived in Bruma, just inside the city gates. At an early age he learned to ignore his parents, and eventually abandoned them, making the long trek to Leyawiin, where an uncle he had heard about resided. He moved here to learn of the Arcane arts, and join the Mages Guild. Another reason was that he heard his uncle was quite involved with the Mages Guild, though his parents discouraged him of learning more of him. As he grew, he got more skilled with magic, and joined the Guild. He resides in a nice house near the river, where he spends his free time practicing his skills and studying the Arcane arts, as well as making the occasional visit to the Imperial City to visit the Arcane University. He is very much interested in these new forms of life, and strives to learn more about them as things unfold.

Personality: Kind and caring always putting others before himself especially if they are civilians.

They wanted Davion to follow in their footsteps and join the college of Winterhold- curiously enough Davion had no magic to his name, he couldn't even use the pre-recorded ones in scrolls. Thinking that he failed his parents Davion ran away and joined the Imperial Legion. He was posted at Bravil and was one of the last Guardsmen to leave the city after the Reaper landed. Davion left the Legion hoping that he could help people better operating in a group of independent adventurers
Skills: One handed, heavy armour and block.
Weapons: Steel long sword honed to the point of it being a legendary weapon and an Imperial shield.
Hope I get in this looks good.

[Belgarion98]

Great, welcome.

[Iamgoofball]

I'll join in, as I don't need to know anything about ME.

Also, will any ME characters show up to help us defend, as we obviously can't kill it due to superior technology.

[Belgarion98]

Guess...

So I think it will be a lot more interesting if I trash Aragon and go with....

Commander Shepard

let's just say he crash lands....

yes, the most badass person in the galaxy is here to help

[Iamgoofball]

One quick question.

I've heard that the ME plotline is EXTREMELY determined by the players actions.

Wouldn't that mean you would have to figure out before hand all of the actions CS did?

[Belgarion98]

This starts with a clean slate, as you can see....

The Commander is stranded. He wakes up in a forest, the white gold tower looming oveer him. He tries to remember how he came here, yet he lost his memory. He only is sure of one thing...Reapers, the giant machines intent on destroying the galaxy, are here. Clad in his armor, yet with no weapons or tech to aid him. He makes his way, until he is picked up by a small band of adventurers. They are on their way to fight a creature of unimaginable danger, questing for adventure.

[Musicman247]

Ma'siq readies Chain Lightning.

Oh, wait, that was just a description of....yeah, nevermind.

[Belgarion98]

Spoiler:

No, that was the beginning. Let's start at the point Shepard meets the adventurers. Goofball, you're in.

Shepard peeks out from behind the tree he is hiding behind. The small group of people is petrified in fear. No wonder. When they heard him crashing through the forest, they must have expected danger. A good squad always expects danger, he thinks to himself. "Show yourself!" one of the people cries, his weapon unsheathed. I really have no choice, Shepard thought. He steps put from behind the tree.
"People, let me help you. I am Commander Shepard, here to help. Make no mistake, that creature is here to destroy you. But with my help, we can beat it. Together. Now who are you?"



"We fight that creature." They say in Unison.

[Iamgoofball]

"Creature?" Said Mage. "What creature? And who are you?"

[Belgarion98]

"Just yesterday, A creature known as a Reaper landed on the other side of that bay.
That creature is here to destroy you. Do not doubt me. I KNOW. Unless we band together we don't stand a chance. I am commander John Shepard. I tell you truthfully, I know nothing of my former life. I woke up beside a lake, and on the other side, I spotted the Reaper. I have nothing but the armor you see me wearing now. Now let me help you."

[Iamgoofball]
