Sci-fi crossover

[mattmanganon]

So, should I get an OOC going?

@mattmanganon

Shall we reboot the "Interference from Higher Dimensions" type deal then?

Which universe shall we set up in?

[mattmanganon]

Well... Something I was thinking about was maybe setting it across multiple universes. I mean, maybe starting in the Halo Universe, but then getting thrown into the Star Wars Universe, then maybe showing up in the Doctor Who universe for a little while.

As for story. I was thinking something along the lines of a single villain. Said villain is travelling across the multiverse, stealing technologies and amassing allies in order to create the first Multiversal Empire. Naturally, each of us have a run in with his ship and managing to follow him through the Multiversal travel vortex to the next universe.

Slightly inspired by the Voyager episode Year of Hell. At the same time, I was thinking of maybe some time travel shenanigans. I was thinking of one possible episode involving their combined forces actually managing to defeat the bad-guy's ship, but it escaping back to earth, 2015. It would be interesting for the Battlestar Galactica and Star Wars crews, the former finally getting to visit the fabled cradle of human civilization, and the latter maybe being convinced that Earth is just Corellia from the distant past.

"But I thought Star Wars was a Long Time Ago..."

Jeez, this topic is months old. Well, as long as there is still some form of interest inbound, I'll still be here to contribute my niche sect of sci-fi.

@mattmanganon

I think Earth would be more along the lines of Eriadu due to its position in the Galaxy :P

Also I'm still game, will decide what I want to role with once an OOC is up. Story/plot is up to you guys I just like being in a RP where I can command a spaceship.

I think Who should be last on account that it is just about as high powered as it it can go (if we include EU Who that is) other than some anime being equal - depending on how you perceive it obviously.

@mattmanganon

This just reminds me of the Trek comic where an Alt. Federation has all the time travel devices from various franchises from Hot Tub Time Machine, to the Delorean etc. Maybe if they have Sliding technology kinda of like those multiverse travelling villains from the same series - Kromags?

Our role is to stop the villain from acquiring time travel technology?

Okay Matt - do you wanna run this, or shall I? I'm easiosi but to be honest.

[RogerD]

It would be interesting to some other factions though, I'd be thinking about something from Palladium RPG's Phase World.

Trek Xover

[mattmanganon]

That's pretty damn sweet.

My current idea is that, essentially, yes, we are chasing the guy across the multiverse, trying to prevent him from getting his hands on dangerous technology, at the top of that list is Time Travel technology, that will grant him complete mastery over time and space. As stated earlier, I was definitely hoping for an episode where the bad-guy is shot down over modern day Earth, most likely set in the Doctor Who universe. My thinking is that he attempts to try and capture a T.A.R.D.I.S. which, naturally, his ship is simply no match for. The Temporal weapons of said T.A.R.D.I.S. simply too much for even his OP ship.

EDIT: On second though, maybe not. RPs should not be joined brashly at 2am.

@mattmanganon

Thought you'd like the excerpt of that comic, which incidentally was Star Trek Legion of Superheroes or something where Vandal Savage, an early version of Flint captures Q and then uses his powers to become master of that universe. There's a funny bit where Kirk makes a comment about the Shi'ar throwing canon balls at his ship, only it is actually Gladiator :)

"Has anyone noticed how similar Professor Xavier looks like Captain Picard?"

Honestly I really like this crossover and would like to bring in one of two character ideas:
Either a hero of albion in equipment from a far off world.
OR
A mysterious person from its own stand alone world. I could easily seem him as a merc hired by the big bad and one of the other players simply buys him off to fight back against the main villain.

@knighthawk

Please, if we're going to hire a mercenary Deadpool gets my vote.
