I think I should mention something about the technology with regards to armor. Given that growth and various innovations could have potentially occurred within the rebuild, armor would no doubt look considerably different than that of the ME series. To that end, if folks would like to use armor concepts from Halo, select ones from Starcraft, and others, feel free to. If there's a considerable problem with the armor chosen, I will bring it to your attention.

Hopefully this helps y'all out. I'll have my character up soon and a writing sample. If I'm asking everyone for a sample, I find it only fair that I provide one myself.
