[center][b]Year 2524[/b][/center]

[center]Humanity stands divided.[/center]

	A civil war is raging between the Unified Earth Government, the de facto human government, and various movements seeking some degree of freedom from its influence. Tracing its origins to notorious incidents such as the nuclear bombing of the Far Isle and rising aminsoity towards the UEG in the Outer Colonies, the fighting has dragged on for nearly three decades now, having claimed millions of lives and engulfing much of human-occupied space in the process. And despite the best efforts of the UEG's military agency, the United Nations Space Command Defense Force, no clear end appears to be in sight. 

	Your character is a member of Delta-Seven, a combat team in the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. Best known for their unconventional method of insertion, which involves deploying from orbit via a teardrop-shaped drop pod, the ODSTs are some of the best the military has to offer. Each one is a volunteer. Most are drawn from other special operations units in the UNSCDF or the standing militaries of UEG member nations. Every candidate is selected either by on their performance in their chosen job or for their extraordinary capabilities in combat. There are no age or gender restrictions in the ODSTs either, so long as potential members meet the physical and mental requirements set. 

	I can't really think of any explicit rules to list, so until something comes up, just expect the same general rules as any other RP. Also, keep in mind that we haven't encountered the Covenant yet and that some things may not have been widely known or around in the year 2524.
