[@Elle Santiago] Yeah AI's are fine but I would like to keep them generally disconnected from each other, that is to say not hive minded outside of maybe a few instances. I mentioned in one of my characters bios he made a robot out of scraps and a very old ai system that came from an advanced toaster. lol

As for your motivation I can't help to much with that, and honestly I have a lot of anxiety about being annoying so I'll hit you up every now and then but if you want to take your time that's fine with me too. This codex section is actually something I would love to have and was already making up a book for the world called the Xenobook. I have absolutely NO idea how to implement it though lol And I'm a god awful artist so I don't think there would be pictures to go with it since all the aliens I'm making are out of my own head and biologically feasible.

For now, there is no real goal so it's primarily world building, but I would be more than happy gain a plot point or two as we go, and designed my main character to be the adventurous type and a supporting character in Richard Morris that can also easily travel through the colony. I've also been trying to set up the Law Enforcement Corp as part of a distopian organization trying to keep the minimal means of peace through suppression and keeping aliens and the poor complacent since like I said in the pitch, this large scale of a colony with so many species and such would be just hell to keep in check in any real application. I don't like forcing direction so an over arcing goal is fine by me as long as we aren't hellbent on getting to it asap. The rp can be like "hey let's go to section 4 to get that one guy but also we have X, Y, and Z ways of getting there." and just winging it from place to place while trying to get there. Really I'm cool for anything as long as we're all having fun. A bit of a serious character could likely keep us all focused (again Richard was designed to be just the kind of guy to do so) or we could just explore the world around us. You want a rebellion? Sure we can do that. Want to topple a crime ring? Sounds fun to me. Stuff like that y'know. 

And honestly the fact you're dedicated to 4 or 5 rp's does very little to deter me since as far as im concerned that just shows you are committed to something when you say you're interested. In the end I'm just waiting for someone to establish a second character before I start framing a first story post. I could just jump into it with one long ass post, but I don't want to leave my main character or someone like Richard in a place you can't interact with them, and it really sucks when your partners don't have an in cause they'll end up walking around for awhile and they get bored and bleh no fun for anyone and I just don't want to leave any of you in a situation like that. 

If you want to pm me any rapid fire questions when making a sheet feel free, I'm really excited for this and so I've been thinking about all sorts of elements I can add into this for us to explore from groups, to life styles, to more species of aliens. I could really use a suggestion for how I should design this codex of species using the forum and where I should put it ^^"> I promise I'm learning fast I already figured out how to make lists and use colors.
