Blood Act I~ Ghosts of the Past

Going to be honest, I have no idea what happened to Aruna.

Blood Act I~ Ghosts of the Past

I would offer Ssarak, but I believe Leith is still rooming with him.

The trick to arguing is not to convince the other person they are wrong, but to convince everyone listening that your opponent is a raving lunatic.

For some reason, I think it would be interesting if someone, especially Mar, ended up in a philosophical debate with Ssarak over something. He uses logic that is really hard to form an effective argument against.

I think it would be easy to justify. The crucible may simply just not work as the catalyst implied. Unlike Geth and normal AI, the Reapers were not machines, they were hybrids of organic and inorganic material. Perhaps the blast only affected that type of combination?

Bwahahaha! A chastity belt has no power against alcohol!!

Or drug breath.

Mass Effect Ressurection

Oh, right, I forgot that not everyone takes the same assumptions as I did when I made my Mass Effect RP a while back. ME3's ending was, well, terrible, as most people agree. Last time I made one, it ended up being a sort of an alternate universe RP where the catalyst's "choices" were merely attempts at indoctrination. Shepard saw through it and activated the crucible, destroying solely the reapers.

If I had to give a recommendation I would say that an alternate universe of that nature would provide for a better story overall. They attempted an unnecessary twist ending, introducing a few Deus Ex Machina divices and changed the entire tone and goal of the plot in the last ten minutes.

We can aim for the next day, likely towards the end of it if it makes it that far? Or we could set it up when posting slows down.

Alright, I'll make sure Ssarak isn't occupied, though we need to place them all in the same area at the same time.

Mass Effect Ressurection

Name: Avatar
Race: Geth
Gender: N/A
Age: 550 years since program’s creation
Appearance: http://th06.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2013/124/f/7/me3_rannoch_1___geth_troopers_by_chicksaw2002-d64151w.jpg
Personality: As one might expect from a Geth, Avatar is driven by logic, though it does have a distinct personality, as most Geth have come to develop since the Reaper War. It is a particularly curious program, especially in regards to cultures and behaviors of organics. As a result, it is willing, and often eager to work with them.
Skills:
-Tech expert capable of hacking all but the strongest of systems.
-Has ample combat programming
-Its advanced mobile platform is quite durable. As its body is made from tough alloys with powerful synthetic muscles, it is capable of strength beyond that of an organic of the same size.
Abilities: Engineer
-Hunter mode
-Overload
-Incinerate/Flamer
-Cryo Blast
-Sabotage
Equipment:
-Geth Pulse Rifle
-Geth Plasma SMG
-An advanced platform with greater capabilities than a standard Geth unit.
History: For most of Avatar’s existence, it was but a single Geth program, with little more than rudimentary instincts and completely reliant upon the presence of other Geth to attain intelligence. That, however, changed in the midst of the Reaper War. In the aftermath of the battle with the Creator fleet at Rannoch, all Geth were given Reaper upgrades that uplifted them to become true A.I. Avatar was given its name by a group of organics it fought alongside during the Battle of Earth, and decided to keep that name in order to facilitate easier communication with organics.

Rebuilding the Mass Relays took many years, even with knowledge gained from the Reapers. After that monumental task was complete, Avatar filled many roles. At first most of the Geth’s efforts were on rebuilding what was lost at Rannoch and helping the Creators resettle on the homeworld. The efficiency of the Geth’s planning coupled with the eagerness of the Quarians to re-establish their home made the process exceptionally quick. Avatar spent a few years inhabiting the suits of Creators, mimicking the effects of viruses to help them to rebuild their immune systems. Over time, cities were erected on the surface of Rannoch, and more and more Creators were able to live without their suits, though most still chose to wear them due to tradition.

Eventually, Avatar’s role shifted away from rebuilding and into security. Due to the weakened state of the galaxy in the years after the war, piracy and other forms of crime were becoming increasingly common. All Geth were capable of combat when installed in the correct platform, but Avatar had a desire to help, as it would mean working more closely with other species, aside from Creators. Avatar served for about a decade as a combat platform, patrolling sectors near the borders of Geth/Quarian space, and sometimes even in the territories of other species, when requested. Overall, the Geth were not in consensus on how much of a role they should play in galactic politics, if any at all, but most agreed that attacking pirates and other criminals benefitted all parties.

Recently, Avatar has been given a new assignment. In a show of mutual cooperation, the Geth have agreed to send advanced platforms to directly assist the Council in dealing with a new potential threat. These platforms are to serve the same roles as Spectres, and are likely to work alongside them. These Geth are not exactly considered Spectres, as the Geth have little desire for ranks or titles, but they serve with the same capacity and resources.

Spectre: Not Technically?

Mass Effect Ressurection

Ah, nice to see this is up and moving again. I do have a few questions/suggestions though. With the Quarians, two hundred years would have been more than enough time to build back their immune systems, so I don't think they would necessarily need their suits anymore (though as Tali said, they are a part of their culture). I also do not believe any restrictions on the Geth would have been necessary, as they aren't really expansionist. The non-heretic Geth stayed secluded behind the veil of their own volition before the Reapers forced them to get involved. During the rebuilding, the Council would probably have been too worried about offending their allies to try to exert too much influence over them. I imagine it would have been the same for the Krogan.

At any rate, I will get my bio up after making a few edits to the age and background.
