The idea is for a sci-fi crossover set in the Star Trek universe, in which we play the main crew of various franchises that came through. Your enemies may also come through, though, so beware.

I will be playing a Star Gate SG-1 crew (with a Tok'ra along as an adviser), though if someone else wants to play Star Gate characters, that's fine too.

Here's my basic backstory.

---

Star Gate Universe:

In an attempt to flee Morgan Lafeye, Adria goes through the Supergate. While inside the wormhole she searches for an escape and finds a similar wormhole in another universe. At the place where the wormholes are closest she jumps between the two universes.

LaFeye attempts to follow her, but is prevented from doing so by the other ascended beings, as Adria is no longer a threat when she is in another universe. Believing that they must prevent her from gathering her power in another universe, LaFeye goes to Earth and informs them of Adria's escape. Because Earth possesses the technology to travel to other universes, she asks them to incorporate the technology into the Odyssey while they repair it.

Believing Adria to still be a threat, they do and, when the Odyssey is finished being repaired two months later, LaFeye returns one more time to add the coordinates of the new universe to the Inter-universal drive. SG-1 sets out once again, this time to the location given to them by LaFeye, in order to bring Adria back.

Star Trek Universe:

Adria arrives in the other wormhole, only to find that it is inhabited. The natives sense her desire to conquer the galaxy and banishes her, sending her down to Bajor as they once did with the Pah wraiths. A local by the name of Kel Tomil sees her retake humanoid form, something she did to hide from LaFeye, and believes her to be one of the prophets. She plays along, pretending to be a guide sent by them to steer them onto the correct path, the path of Origin, though with Bajoran beliefs woven in. After Kel Tomil leads others to "The True Path", she re-ascends long enough to make him her Doci and several of her followers Priors.

Two months later, over twenty percent of the population of Bajor follows Origin, having seen the Miracles of the Priors, healing the sick, even those that Star Fleet medicine couldn't help, and believing their promises of Ascension.

The Odyssey appears near DS9, and is hailed.

The wormhole may allow people from other universes to come through, or they may find other ways through. The Star Trek characters will be NPCs that any one can control unless someone wants to claim them and play as Star Trek characters.

@TheUnknowable Probably star trek, but it's more based on who goes to what side for me. I tend to try to fill in the gaps.

Interesting. Who to play?

If a Jedi came over would he/she still have his/her force powers?

@Burning KittySure. Star Trek has enough paranormal abilities in it that they could still work, especially if we forget about midiclorians and assume some form of the Force exists.

I am thinking of doing a hybrid type thing, one ship (unknown origins at this point) but with a crew from various universes.

@Burning KittyYou'd need a way to explain how they ended up together, but it could work.

Transported to the same planet. Fought, those who survived became a crew. Needing a ship stole the first one to come by to investigate their distress call. Gradually working their way up to a bigger and better ship.

@Burning KittyIn that case, the main problems are making sure you don't use established characters from more than a few Franchises (depending on how significant they are).

OP isn't generally a problem because it can be dealt with by bringing in OP enemies, so if anyone uses DBZ or something, then expect Borg Cubes and Priors to start slugging it out with them.

@Burning KittyTo clarify, Lando Calrissian (SW), EDI (Mass Effect) and Capt. Johnson (Halo) stealing a Klingon scout ship is fine, but Luke Skywalker (SW), John Sheppard (Mass Effect) and MCPO John 117 (Halo) would be taking too many major characters and eliminating possible universes for other players.
