[OOC] Halo: The Great Journey

[NacNak]

Before the Ark was found, before the fall of Reach, before the covenant declared war on man, that's when this Journey began...

many Thousands of years after the age of Age of Abandonment, The First Age of Conflict began. After leaving their homeworld, the San 'Shyuum (Prophets) had encountered the Sangheili (Elites) , both races that had experience with Forerunner technology. The San 'Shyuum believed that incorporating Forerunner technology was allowed by their religion. But to the Sangheili, such a thing would have been unthinkable heresy. but as the San 'Shyuum pushed they're beliefs upon the Sangheili, the two space fairing races broke into war.

in the beginning the Sangheili had the advantage, with each warrior far greater in strength and skill to several San 'Shyuum in battle. However, the San 'Shyuum's technological superiority, and possession of a Forerunner Dreadnought, meant that they had the advantage in space battles.

Eventually, in order to ensure the survival of their race, the Sangheili were forced to amend their position of the treatment of Forerunner technologies and began studying their relics and incorporating elements into their warships, weapons and armor designs. When the San 'Shyuum realized that if there were other races with martial capabilities like the Sangheili, they would be in serious danger.

In time, the Sangheili learned of the San 'Shyuum's belief in the Great Journey, where the Forerunners used the Halo Array to ascend to a god-like state, and wished to repeat this process on themselves. eventually the two races signed a treaty known as the Writ of Union to form the early Covenant, which defined the two races positions: the San 'Shyuum would act as the head religious leaders, studying the Forerunners' technology and seek out the Halos, while the Sangheili would serve as their protectors, using weapons and technology developed by the San 'Shyuum. The Dreadnought was decommissioned and made the center point and power source of High Charity, a mobile planetoid which would serve as the capital of the Covenant. and thus began the Great Journey, soon other races joined this Journey in the Age of Conversion where the Jiralhanae (Brutes) , Huragok (Engineers) , Mgalekgolo (Hunters) , Yanme'e (Drones) , Kig-Yar (Jackals/ Skirmishers) , and Unggoy (Grunts) would join the Covenant on the quest for god-hood.

this Journey will start for us on bored the Covenant Assault Carrier, it's just over half the size of a super carrier, it is known as:

The Light of Truth

Da-Rules:

1.No God-Modding, Power-playing, (or Auto-hitting, this mostly applies if your fighting another player), I don't wanna see a grunt charging into battle by itself, guns blazing and returning with a bag of heads as trophies, although it would be awesome, I'd like the rp to stay realistic =3

2.No heated arguments inside of the OOC, if there is a problem speak to me or the CO-GM

3.NO ONE is allowed to dual-wield energy swords unless I allow it

4.Please post at least one paragraph in your posts, this is five sentences or more, three at the least

5.Do not advertise other RPs here

6.Do not kill other player’s characters without their permission first. (although I doubt we would because we're suppose to be on the same team =3 )

7.What the GM and Co-GM says goes, our words are law (if you disobey you will be put on trial for heresy >=3 )

8.I hold the right to change the rules however I please when needed

9.Have fun and enjoy the RP. =3

[Spriggs27]

Nak I waited for this day for a long time so I can say these words, Good luck, I wish for you to have a long and great Roleplay.

[datadogie]

I'd like to be a pilot, but there is no pilot rank even though that it is known that Elites fly Covenant ships and attack craft. There is also Elite pilot armour in Halo 3.

[Stryder]

Just rank your character as pilot

[datadogie]

Okay. I'm writing an app right now.

[Master Crim]

Mind if I join this?
Hey Stryder, hay NacNak

[Stryder]

Go for it Crim

[datadogie]

Name: Ramo Zarianee
Age: 23
Race: Elite
Rank: Pilot
Appearance: Ramo is an averaged sized Sangheili, with dark grey skin. He has slightly lighter blue eyes than most sangheili, and he is quite thin. He wears blue Pilot armour.

Personality: Ramo is not that serious of a Sangheili, often cracking jokes or messing around. He is quite friendly, even though most people he meets are not. Ramo is also quite serious about aircraft, and doesn't like people breaking them.
Weapons: A plasma rifle, plasma pistol and an energy dagger in case he crashes and has to do some 'dirty work'.

History: Ramo was born into a tribe which only believed in one god, and that was the goddess Zariana. Though it was considered heresy, the tribe still believe in her, but tell nobody. Ramo trained to be a pilot, and he took part in missions as a pilot for many aircraft, including Spirits, Phantoms, Banshees and in one unlikely situation a Lich. Out of all of them, Ramo would probably prefer the Phantom. A majority of the missions he did were supply runs, but he has seen his fair share of battle.

[Master Crim]

Okay, thanks.

Wow so I am making a Hunter and in doing some research on them my mind is blown on their size and strength. O_O

[Drakel]

Name: Dramak 'Far Etforamai
Age: (He's the youngest of the Counselors.)
Race: Sangheili
Rank: Elite Counselor & Aristocrat
Appearance:
(Replace all green with Gold)
Personality: He is very witty and as a political figure rather charismatic. He is serious and dutiful and hold the most highest of standards, expecting nothing but perfection from the arbiter and the rest of the shipmates.He is known to be the most honorable, courageous and cold as was he a ruthless fighter, and a harsh one to be exact. However, once you get past his rather serious and blunt personality it may be shocking to discover that he is nice and likes to talk with his fellow crew. He takes every death personally and would be more than willing to talk about each and every man who ever fought with or under him with the greatest of pride. He also never known a lost battle and would tend to fight without retreat, never understanding the word or surrender and would even go as far enough as to be angered by the word. (Some even joke saying it's out of his vocabulary.)
Weapons:

Weapons

1 Silver Plasma Rifles.


1 Plasma Pistol (In which he carries with him at all times, unlike all of his other weapons)


1 Energy Dagger (Left hand and with him at all times)


1 Teal Energy Sword

Plasma Grenades

Self Hologram projectors

History: (optional)

[Master Crim]

Name:
Igora Hurshu Yotno

Age:
46

Race:
Hunters

Rank:
N/A

Appearance:

Hight: 12'2" Weight: 5.25 Tons

Personality:
Not much different from what is observed in the games.

Weapons:
Assault Cannon

The Assault Cannon the Hunter wields operates in two modes; one firing a single explosive capsule of incendiary fluid, the other spraying the fluid out like a beam. When firing in the latter form, the Assault Cannon will make several deep, loud chirping sounds, which typically alerts anybody nearby to their presence.

Shield

they carry an enormous, and nearly impervious two-part metal shield made of an unknown alloy derived from the same material that forms Covenant warship hulls, and weighing approximately two tons. This shield protects them from almost every form of plasma-based or ballistic weaponry available to Covenant and human infantry alike, and is a powerful melee tool capable of crushing anything in its path and allowing the Mgalekgolo to sweep away most enemies in close combat.

History: How am I supposed to know this!?
