Mass Effect: Reclamation

Word has reached all civilized beings in the galaxy. From Thessia to Tuchanka, From Palaven to earth, from the Migrant Fleet to the Citadel, the same message is morbidly clear; the Reapers have arrived, and they spare no one.

In the midst of the conflict, an asari delegate named Faenya was stranded on the planet Nevos after her shuttle was blasted out of the air by a Reaper Harvester. Faenya represents the will of the people of Lusia, the planet historically remembered for being the birthplace of the Krogan Rebellions, and currently known for its' defensive capability. With a highly advanced defense grid protecting the planet, the world of Lusia could be instrumental in delaying further Reaper attacks in Asari space, buying more time for the Alliance and Commander Shepard to save the galaxy from the Reaper threat.

Delegate Faenya was reported alive in a large agrarian city, a city called Nos Orosi which is known for producing great amounts of food, and large transports that are capable of bringing the food across the galaxy for soldiers everywhere. Nos Orosi had been instrumental in keeping the soldiers fighting many reaper attacks fed and healthy, and without its' support, many soldiers will lose their food source and will be forced to ration their supplies, and possibly even die of malnutrition before the bullets of their enemies destroy them.

Due to the severity of the situation, a special ops strike team has been dispatched to the city of Nos Orosi, which is under heavy assault from Reaper forces. The mission parameters are clear; save the city, and get the delegate out. The team was assembled on short notice, and as such, there is no leader. The decisions necessary will be made as the team itself sees fit.

Double posting here, submitting my own character.

Name: Eren Eltos
Race: Drell
Gender: Male
Class: Adept
Military Rank: N/A
Age: 27
Physical Appearance: Eren is a little on the short side for a Drell, standing at 5'5". He has a light blue skin color, with minimal hints of green. His body shape is rather athletic, due to work as a mercenary and other strenuous activities.
Clothes/Armor: Eren wears a standard 'Drell coat' which is black, with hints of blue on the shoulders and arms, and with white stripes on the side of the torso. The longcoat is lightly armored, but Eren's primary source of protection comes from biotic barriers.
Weapons: M-29 Incisor Sniper Rifle, M-12 Locust Submachine Gun
Fighting Style: Eren's primary offensive abilities come from his mastery of biotics. Though he totes around two guns, he focuses on being a weaver of biotic fields to raise shields to protect his allies, and to throw biotic missiles to rip his enemies apart. He falls back to his guns if his biotic abilities are exhausted or if they are ill-suited for the situation. He also has a measure of melee training, but dislikes partaking in melee combat unless it is absolutely necessary.
Personality: Eren is a thoughtful, quiet person. When business and missions are not concerned, he rarely ever talks, as if something is troubling him. When business and missions are concerned, Eren is a completely different person, who isn't afraid to comment and voice his opinions on combat situations and courses of action.
Background:
Spoiler:
Eren was born on Kahje, in a climate controlled dome amongst other Drell. He was a rebellious teen who did not embrace the customs of his people, and he took a ship off world. He bounded from planet to planet, learning the trade of the mercenary. As he got older, he began to regret his decision, and returned home to repair relations with his family. Unfortunately, he found his mother, father, and two older brothers all infected with Kepral's Syndrome, and they had not much time left. At the age of 22, Eren's parents were gone, and by the age 25, his brothers were dead as well. Eren had an intense spiritual crisis at the time, and is still confused on the subject. Becoming somewhat agnostic, a depressed Eren traveled to the citadel. He befriended an asari commando, and through her comfort, Eren had become happy for the first time in a long time. He and the asari, named Neira, began a relationship, and Neira was with child within a year. She relocated to Thessia to inform her family in person. Eren was about to follow her, when the Reapers attacked the planet. Neira and her unborn child were amongst the first casualties.
Eren, in a bout of deep depression once again, once again took to his mercenary talents. He spent long hours training his biotic powers to near-perfection, and began taking the fight to the Reapers. He spends all of his award money by donating to charities that were researching cures for Kepral's disease.
Misc Info: Eren is basically my multiplayer Drell Adept character, with a tacked on backstory. Also, Eren does not have Kepral's Syndrome. At least, not yet.
Morality Orientation: 60% Renegade, 40% Paragon

Well, I'm a fan of Mass Effect and know a bit about the universe so here I go:

Name: Urlak Bragvaz
Race: Krogan
Gender: Male
Class: Vanguard
Military rank: Battlemaster
Age: 310
Physical Appearance: Urlak is a very tall Krogan, at full stature he stands over 8'1". He has light orange skin and his head plate is of bright red, it is also covered with many scratches. He is blind in his left eye, but his facial and body structure is similar to normal Korgan despite his huge height.
Clothes/Armor: Urlak wears a standard Korgan armor set which was painted full on black with silver highlights on the edges. However the armor was modified to allow maximum maneuverability without sacrificing protection.
Weapons: M-300 Claymore and the M-8 Avenger for long range.
Fighting Style: Urlak normally closes in with his targets with a biotic charge, shotgun blazing and headbutting everything in his path. If that is not possible he takes out his assult rifle and shoots from longer range.
Personality: A strong krogan both physically and mentally, Urlak is as normal as a Krogan can be. He mostly resolves all his problems with his firepower or his fists (he calls them "strength" and "vengance") but if needed and instructed by people of higher rank or those he respects greatley he shuts up and solves problems with his aggresive words. He is rather a Krogan of action rather than words so he may not be the greatest of captains or commanders, but wherever he goes he brings confidence, faith and determination to the people serving under him.
Background: He was born on Tuchanka in a small village in the middle of no-where, when he was young a Thresher Maw destroyed the village and killed his family. He then hunted that Thresher Maw for half of his life untill he finally killed it. Being content with his revenge he joined Clan Urdnot at the age of 164 and gained many titles and respect of many Krogan. Now that the Reapers are here, he doesn't care who he fights for as long as he gets to kill some reapers 8) .
Misc Info: His class and military rank is based on the Korgan Battlemaster from multiplayer.
Morality Orientaion: 75% Renegade, 25% Paragon.

If I got something wrong within the universe or was mistaken on the Korgan lifespan tell me and I will change it :mrgreen: .

Krogan lifespan is about 400 years. Last I checked, Urdnot Wrex is about 250-ish in ME.
As for your Krogan, I'm not sure how old Krogan are when they go through their version of puberty and what-not. It's all up to you.

I'm sorry Unionhack, but I don't know much about ME. I've only played the demo for three, for example, so I'm bowing out. I really am sorry.

No problem, man. The forum is really backed up in RP right now anyway. Might put this one on hiatus.
