[hr] [b]First of all, I hope you had a very good holiday (whichever you celebrated) and am hoping you for all the best in the New Year. Due to the holiday season, and before that scholary season, I have posted in order to keep the ball rolling to prevent stagnation.[/b] So the [b][i]Away Team[/i][/b] (You know who you are) are now in the active zone where you can start exploring and looking around. There are very few ground rules on what is in the area, feel free to invent (The only thing I am keeping under the control of the GMs are the spheres). As this is our first away mission, where we have a lot of people working towards similar objectives we're going to try something. Each PC is going to be part of a Survey Team consisting of at least 3 (up to eight) members, plus two security personnel (humanoid or droid). These squads however will be manned largely by NPCs, don't feel the need to delve into backstory unless you feel like it. "Dave who specializes in biology" works fine for me. If you so wish to collab, you can go along with [i]one[/i] other player character (I expect you to organize these duos by yourselves) which will allow for collabs but won't cause them to clog things up. These groups can cross paths, though only for a short period of time. Though if someone leaves a group (I.E. If [@Rawk] and [@Heat] were a group, and Michael wandered off by himself [@Rawk] could go chill with [@FuzzyBootz] as [@Subject Zero] went running after [@Heat]) another player can fill the buddy slot. Any questions on this feel free to ask, I feel like I may have written it in an overcomplicated way but it's really simple.
