Someone remind me to stop staying up into the next day. I'm way too tired to function as I write this.

Bio

Hello people of this website! I'm a dude, I just really enjoy playing female characters, don't ask why 'cause I don't know. I'm something of a die hard Mass Effect fan, and that's about it.

Most Recent Posts

Name: Sicari “Icarus” Velinian

Age: 28

Species: Turian

Gender: Female

Appearance: Standing at 5’10”(1.778m) and weighing in at 160lbs.(72.6kg) Sicari is just a little under the average height for the Turian race. She’s a bareface with cold, ice blue eyes and a curvy figure, rivalling the attractiveness of a moderately arresting Asari. She has approximately thirteen scars on her body in various places, and has a pale green carapace with a slight bluish hue.

Occupation: Information Broker, ex-Blue Suns operative

Class: Infiltrator

Powers: Tactical Cloak, Sabotage, Overload, Decoy, Incinerate, Cryo Blast

Weapons: M-11 Suppressor, M-22 Eviscerator

Armor: Light Onyx Armor

Apparel: Charcoal-colored, form-hugging outfit, loose near the hips and underarms to conceal small arms and packages.

Equipment: Chameleon Omni-Tool, Prototype Venom Gauntlets

Personality: Very quiet with a soft spot for a good bottle of alcohol. Sicari’s made more than one sloppy mistake due to either a hangover or a fit of drunkenness, though it is a rare occurrence. She does, however, have amazing attention to detail and spares no expense to cover each and every one of her tracks. She has an adept understanding of psychologies from various races, excluding Elcor and Human, as she, like most Turians, has difficulty reading the expressions, or lack thereof, of these two races. She also has a weakness for a select few drugs, such has Free Will (In reference to Leodiensian’s Davo’Sallar) and cocaine, though often buys and disposes of very dangerous substances, such as heroin and meth, to help fulfill a dealer’s quota. She’s also a decent cook… if you’re dextro-based, that is.

Biography: Born and raised to a militaristic Asari mother and an enigma of a father in the middle of an FTL jump in the Attican Tranverse, Sicari Velinian was forced to fend for herself from an early age. She constantly moved with her mother’s fleet, being taught and trained among the Asari and the many other children in the flotilla. She was very much alone, since she didn’t even have a quarter of the lifespan of an Asari, and had to have private mentors for an accelerated education. Thus, she was doing algebra by age ten, basic trigonometry at age thirteen, and learning physics since she could first speak. She came out a smart girl, and an even smarter adversary.

Fast-forward to age sixteen, Sicari’s mother was pronounced MIA after a botched mission on Virmire, and KIA after the bodies from the squadron were recovered, the mother’s corpse among them. Sicari promptly made the decision to avenge the only family she had and left the fleet after they stopped at the Citadel, burning all her bridges in the process. She booked passage to Omega on a small transport owned by the Blue Suns, and made friends with one of the officers on the ship. She was offered a job as a drug distributor and readily accepted, leading to her cocaine addiction in the later years. She moved through the ranks quickly, proving herself as an asset time and time again, and was on good terms with much of the gang, though still alienated by many of Omega’s Turians.

At 25, Sicari earned her nickname in a border dispute with the Eclipse, where she was kicked off the balcony of a high-end apartment and landed on top of a passing Krogan, who decidedly shrugged off the Turian that was just forcibly evicted by a biotic blast from three stories up, and carried her to the nearest medi-gel dispenser. She spent several days unconscious, and around thirty seconds dead, in Mordin Solus’ clinic, where one of the human physicians referred to her as “Icarus” until she woke, and then had to explain who Icarus was. Sicari liked the story behind the name, and decided to keep it as an alias. Upon her full recovery, she left the Blue Suns, but is still under their protection, for a fee. Given their history, it’s at least a reduced fee, 40% off the usual amount.

Soon enough, Sicari fell back into her old habits and started crawling around in vents, listening in to conversations and writing down what she hears. Like any information broker, she remains hidden with several operatives distributing the secrets and collecting payment. If payment isn’t received, it’s taken. It’s a cut and dry business, and Icarus prefers to remain out of the limelight. “Let the Shadow Broker have the enemies,” She’d tell a loyal client, “I’m content as long as I’m breathing and getting paid.” She’s recently relocated to the Citadel’s Zakera Ward to find a newer clientele and up the ante, as law enforcement ranges from zero to nil on Omega, and she likes a challenge.
Zakera Ward was always a busy place, full of activity at all times, even before humans arrived on the Citadel. It’s here that the major events of the stories took place. No, not the story of the Shepard, but the stories of the soldiers that fought until the bitter end, tooth and nail until the last of us drew our final breaths. It’s these individuals that had much to tell, but never had a chance to tell their tales. But now?

Now, these individuals have a chance to make themselves heard…

Some general rules for all you guys who aren’t gonna apply common sense:
-No canon characters (Ex. Shepard, Garrus, Tali, etc.).
-No godmodding, we’re all mortal.
-Develop your characters. No one likes one dimensional characters.
-Stay active. A group of a hundred members is pointless if only five post.
-Collectors, Protheans, and other extinct/purely hostile races are not allowed. Please refrain from creating a Geth until at least the second game’s timeline.
-Avoid killing off or injuring another’s character without their approval or permission.
-Have fun, like a Krogan in the middle of a fight.
-Please post a description of any new characters, a formatting sheet is available below.



Sorry this took so long, guys. I'm making the RP now.
Alright, I'll make this thing tomorrow at around 7pm EST. Think of some characters, guys! We'll jump right in as soon as I remember the plot I though up.
@SuperTacticalDerp This is Mass Effect we're talking about.
This actually sounds pretty cool. Not my type of thing, but I'd definitely get behind it if it was.
Between closely and loosely following the canon story, Mass Effect: Stories of the Soldiers will be aimed at telling the stories of individual characters in the Mass Effect universe, starting from the beginning of the first game's timeline to the end of either the third's or Andromeda's. That depends on what the members decide as a group. The characters mentioned will be OCs, and some standard rules (Such as no godmodding, as everyone's a mortal) will apply, up to 12 members will be accepted, and character development will be heavily encouraged through an indirect means and the standard casual-length posts, although shorter and longer length posts work just as well. It'll be encouraged to have multiple characters to keep you involved at any given time.
If you're interested, please say so. I'd love to make this group a reality and keep it active. If at least three people say yes to this, I'll make this a thing!
Hey everyone, Birb here. I'm gonna go ahead and call myself somewhat experienced with roleplaying, but I have some more to learn. I think this might just be where I figure out that last bit I have left. I plan to stay close to Sci-Fi and Fantasy stuff, but you never know.
