Welcome to [i]The Storm[/i]. This is basically a Marine-centric RP set in the events of Halo: Reach. This is predominantly fighting to survive and exploring the trauma and heroics that comes with it - you are going to die in the end. But at least you'd be fighting to save as much as possible. IMHO, this is a different take from most of the other ones which encourage you to be the superhero. This is a tragedy, not a space opera. A new take on an old idea. This here is the OOC, where discussion takes place. If you're wondering where the OP went, check the IC tab. To keep the RP kind of centralized, you're going to be in and around the New Alexandria area, playing a variety of characters to explore a lot of the aspects involved with such a siege. Now, as for rules I'm not putting many out. Stick to the lore and don't do anything that's outside the boundaries of reality or the lore. You're also not a Spartan, meaning that you're not going to take on four Hunters and live to tell the tale. I'm also going to look down on "elite" stuff like ODSTs because I want to preserve the desperation of the situation - ODSTs might be too well-trained and able to kick ass more than what fits the theme here. Other than that, I don't really care. Do as much violence and swearing as you want. Character sheets are simple, because I'm a nice guy. I won't waste your time on inane details like their favorite ice cream flavor because that's explored in character during the posts: Name: Occupation: (Here would just be something like "Marine Corpsman" or "Army Grenadier") Bio: (Make it detailed. Tell us about them. I don't want to do a minimum length but I'm sure you guys'll know how to handle it. However, being concise is a good trait as well. Find that balance.)
