Star Wars - Galaxies at War[MULTIVERSE SPACESHIP RP]

AR-1 // RESUGENCE // UNKNOWN SPACE

Sheppard handed the tablet over to McKay, who was already interfacing it with his own device as he tapped his headset. "Daedalus, download the data burst I'm sending you onto a firewalled non-network computer-" He offered a smile to the Supreme Commander. "-Just a precaution I'm sure you understand. We have just met after all, don't want you infecting our ship with a computer virus." McKay scrolled through the data on the tablet. Skipping past the pointless civil war that seemed to dominate most of it. Some of it seemed historical but other parts of it had to be propaganda. The Empire enslaving hundreds of species, blowing up planets. He missed dealing with the Wraith, they were simple. All they wanted to do was herd humans like cattle and eat up all of their life force. Within a few minutes of playing with the tablet while other people talked about whatever trivial matters they had to, he came up with a possible candidate.

McKay showed the tablet to Sheppard first who merely nodded. He then slid it onto the table. "This world called. Commenor? What kind of name is that-"

"McKay." McKay turned to see the face of distaste on Sheppard and Teylas faces.

"-Right. Anyway. It's relatively close to our position, shouldn't be too well defended and if the data you've provided is accurate it should be some kind of mass trade hub. So unusual ships and unusual people shouldn't be out of the, well. The usual."

Sheppard turned to face the Zerg, who at this point Ronan was actively scowling at for the behaviours of the little ones. "This is all dependent on whether or not we even decide to work together, and-" He said the next part while actually looking at McKay "-this actually has to be approved by the ship's commander before we do anything."

"Oh please, since when did you-" Teyla turned to Rodney, ignoring the queen for the first time since she had arrived in the room.

"Perhaps this is not the time Rodney."

"Assuming other people agree to do this as well. I feel like we have experience and technology when dealing with Alternate Realities that we stand a reasonable chance of finding our way home. If anyone wants to join us, so be it. At the end of the day, this conversation isn't helping us get any further to a solution."

Rodney spoke now, unable to contain himself any longer. "More importantly, we should try not to interfere with this reality too much. Which is more important for you Supreme Commander. After all, if this is truly your reality, and you were temporally displaced rather than dragged to another universe you run the risk of creating a paradox. Remember in your plans that what we do here, affects your future. If you also want help getting home well, we have even more experience with time travel than we do with altnernate realities."

AR-1 // ABOARD THE RESURGENCE // UNKNOWN SPACE

Ronan nodded and smirked as the smoking armour wielding old man spoke. That was the kind of methodology he could get behind. It was simple, to the point. Give him somewhere to point his gun at and he knew what he was doing, this diplomacy wasn't at all for him. He was more concerned with these Zerg creatures. The more time went on the more similarities that this species had with the Wraith were made public. They could end the threat here and now, the problem could soon be sorted if they all banded together. Wipe them out, then they could deal with this whole out of universe thing. He knew better than to say it though, but he was damn well thinking it.

Sheppard looked at McKay, who looked at Teyla. This wasn't really his area of expertise, this is what Weir was for. She was the diplomat, the one who could talk down anyone and make an alliance with her eyes closed.

"Look. Fight the Empire, don't fight the Empire. I feel like the important thing is we can't stay here. Eventually, we'll need food and fuel. These aren't things we can't find out here. I understand we're all hesitant to trust each other, hell Teyla and Ronan have lived under the oppression of a species called the Wraith for all their lives and their people for generations. Me and McKay come from a world that arrived late on the galactic scene but more often than not the new races we come across aren't too friendly."

McKay then chimed in. "Need I point out we were all subject to the same anomaly to bring us all here. Sensor readings confirm that, and I'm sure all your sensors confirm that. Now I don't know about any of you but I'm arguably the best scientist from where I come from, but even I'm going to need help to solve this one. If anyone here wants to get home, then we should atleast stick together. Preferably without crossing a galactic superpower."

Star Wars - Galaxies at War[MULTIVERSE SPACESHIP RP]

Sheppard turned to the 'Sangheili', him and McKay exchanged glances. "Well. We can safely say alternate universes. We're from Earth, but we've never heard of the UNSC or the Sangheili though that could easily be part of our future-" They exchanged glances again. "-Unlikely our past. Have you ever heard of the, what do other races call us again McKay?"

"Tau'ri."

"Yeah, that thing. Stargate Command, we're the guys that stopped the Goa'uld and their tyrannical rule. Inheritors to the Ancients and all that stuff."

It sounded dumb when he said it out loud. Though from what he had been told through his orientation at the SGC that was basically the status quo. At the same time, McKay finished working on the data packet on his tablet, using the radio uplink to the Daedalus he sent it out in a burst transmission to the other ships. "You guys now all have brief histories of where we're from, and basic specs of our vessel." He looked at Sheppard who merely nodded.

Star Wars - Galaxies at War[MULTIVERSE SPACESHIP RP]

Teyla shifted uncomfortably as she felt the probe, Ronan picking up on the discomfort stood up straight in a position ready to move. His eyes were already locked onto the Zerg beings that seemed to be paying her close attention. Though despite all this he said nothing, and instead it was Sheppard who spoke.

Raising his hands in a defensive motion. "Now. I don't know about anyone else here but I know for damn sure that we don't want to get into a fight with anybody, let alone an Empire that controls the Galaxy. Don't take it as an offence, but all we have to know they're the bad guys is your word and we've been down that road before only to find out we're actually fighting for the bad guys." He looked to the crew that looked most like their own, referencing the Milkyway was a good start at least. If Sheppard had to take a guess he'd say they seemed to be about one hundred years ahead of them, McKay would probably make a more educated guess but there wasn't really time for that. "This includes probes and scouting missions. Look. I'm a military man, I get it and even if the Empire in your home reality are the bad guys, whos to say they are here? We've all been displaced. Maybe you have too, just a little closer to home than the rest of us."

McKay nodded along before also turning to the Glasgows crew. "I'd be really interested to look over your technological specs. I've got a lot of experience in dealing with alien systems and even designed quite a few for our own ship-"

"-but we won't be sharing too much of that information." Sheppard interrupted as McKay had already pulled out a tablet. Caldwell wouldn't be terribly happy to find out they had been giving up all of the Daedalus' secrets. More importantly, he didn't want them to know all of the Daedalus' secrets. Things like the beaming technology were good aces to keep hidden for the moment.

I realise I kind of mixed the two of these things.. So, edit?

I've never played a Young (Hero) character, I've never played a Legacy Character and I've never done an Origin Story. So why do one of these things, when I can do all three at once! Jaime is such a great character, he's relatable and goes through very real struggles. In my eyes he's the (underappreciated or fucked up) Peter Parker of DC, he's just an average kid who gets an alien relic fused with his spine granting him superpowers and a voice in his head that always wants to go for the quick lethal option rather than the way that would reduce casualties. That's a story I want to write. This Jaime is one that's growing up in a world that's all over the Metahumans. Quite a few are sick of the heroes, and its a changing climate for them. Is this a good time for a young new hero with an alien artificial intelligence bonded to his spine that secretly wants to kill and enslave everyone? Probably not.

C H A R A C T E R M O T I V A T I O N S & G O A L S:

Jaime is going to be a struggling teen, his entire world is going to change. He's moved to a new city, leaving his close friends Brenda and Paco behind in El Paso and taking on life in a recently devastated New York city. I will literally be starting this thing off at day one, I mean. At least nothing bad can happen right?

Once he gets the Scarab, he's going to want it off. While also having some control over it so he can still have his normal life, over time he'll likely come to accept the burden, and who he has now become. Will the world view him as a hero though? Especially after whats coming?

C H A R A C T E R N O T E S:

• Jaimes family - Parents and sister Milagro, recently moved to Elbarrio in NYC.
• Paco and Brenda - Best friends for years, currently still in El Paso.
• More notes will be added as time goes on.

"Santa mierda!" Jaime slapped the palm of his free hand against his forehead as he held his cellphone against his other ear. It wasn't easy navigating the streets of New York with a phone up against his ear but he was making it work. On the other line was his two best friends back home an El Paso, Brenda and Paco. When his family had moved here to be closer to his grandmother he felt like his whole life had been left behind. Then the whole world had turned to hell, more recently culminating in the battle of New York and the Empire State building being destroyed. "How many times do I need to tell you Paco? No. I didn't see Wonder Woman in person."

"Oh come on Jaime! You mean to tell me you didn't try to take a peek?"

Jaime sighed. "No I was busy looking after Milagro when it all went down."

"Come on Jaime, live a little! You want to see that sweet hero -"

"-ow-" Jaime didn't have to be present to know that Brenda had punched, kicked or elbowed Paco in the stomach.

"You don't want anything to do with that super-hero business anyway Jaime. It's safer to stay away."

"Yeah I know Brenda, I have to head now. Hasta Luego." He hit the button on his phone to lock it before sliding it back into his pocket. Sighing he raked his hand through his hair as he walked through the nicer streets of New York. That's when the unusual happened. Some form of blue scarab fell out of the sky, landing on the sidewalk right in front of him. "¿Qué?

Jaime leant down and picked it up, raising it in his hand and letting the light reflect off it as he tried to figure out what it was. Then it started to glow, legs extending from its main body. He shook his hand trying to get it to fall off, however, it seemed to be stuck to his hand. It crawled across his arm, he was starting to shake more as he panicked. "¡Quítatelo! ¡Quítatelo! Santa mierda, que alguien ayude!"

He reached his arms over his back as it crawled over his shoulder. Then his body erupted in pain as it latched itself into his flesh. He fell to his knees, people starting to take note of him as he screamed, as a voice filled his head.

⋏⟟⏁⟟⏃⌰⟟⋉⟟⋏☌

Jaime felt as if a thousand insects were crawling over his skin, biting every inch of his body as the blue and black chitin armour extended outwards from where the scarab had burrowed into his skin. People began to run away as they saw the armour begin to form and take hold off his body. He screamed, face-up in the sky as his face was encased in the metallic chitin. Then everything was dark for a moment, he could hear his breath heavy against the faceplate of the armour.

"What do you mean bonded?!"

⍙⟒ ⏃⍀⟒ ⋏⍜⍙ ⍜⋏⟒

"I don't understand what's going on!" Then he could suddenly see, everything in a red tint as he saw the world through the lenses the suit gave him.

He could hear the whirr of engines as the armour clacked and changed shape, two wings forming beside him as an engine formed on his back shooting him into the air. Jaime screamed as he was thrown into the air, he could feel his stomach almost flip itself. How was this possible? He couldn't fly, he wasn't a superhero. Was this Stark Tech? What was going on?

"You can read my thoughts?"

⊬⟒⌇

"Then land right now!" Jaime poured all of his thought and concentration into it, forced his arms and legs to move. Head down, willing himself to head down towards the ground. He saw the ground turn towards him for a second as he flew through New York, before the Scarab resumed control and pulled him up again.

"⟒⍀⍀⍜⍀ ⟒⍀⍀⍜⍀ ⟟ ☊⏃⋏⋏⍜⏁ ⎅⍜ ⏁⊑⏃⏁ ⟊⏃⟟⋔⟒ ⍀⟒⊬⟒⌇

"¡Escucha!, Land, now!"

"☊⍜⋔⌿⌰⊬⟟⋏☌

He groaned and doubled over in pain as the armour retracted into the scarab. He opened his eyes once the pain subsided, to find himself still easily forty stories high above the streets of New York.

AR1 - BASED FROM DAEDALUS // RESURGENCE - UNKNOWN SPACE VESSEL

Sheppard sat at the table, Teyla at one side and McKay at the other. Ronan stood further back with a view on everyone else in the room. Should anything develop he had a shot on anyone in the room. Sheppard had his money on the fact that he would be able to fire first, but then again he was outside of his comfort zone too. He had seen two sentient alien species with physical forms, the Wraith and the Asgard. One ate them and the other he met as they didn't quite trust Earth and humanity with intergalactic travel yet. As the tentacle mushroom things spoke first Sheppard looked at McKay to see if any of it made sense. There was a lot of talk of dimensional, universal and temporal travel. He knew that the SGC had some scenarios where they encountered versions of themselves from an Alternate Universe however it wasn't something he had come across yet, and hopefully after this wouldn't come across again.

Before Sheppard could get a chance to speak McKay had to counter. "The fact all of us are experiencing this at the same time makes me doubt that this is some form of accident. I feel like it's more likely that something dragged us here, from our ship signatures I doubt we were all doing something similar to drag us all here. Our ships are all dramatically different after all, the only energy signature we've scanned that's the same across the board is whatever leftover radiation there is from bringing us here."

Sheppard cut in next. "I honestly don't think it's important how we got here. I think its more important that we get ourselves out of here and back to where we came from. I don't know about you guys but we have people relying on us back in our universe."

Teyla meanwhile was retreating in her mind, making herself as small a presence as possible to try and escape the notice of this Queen that was in the meeting room. "It is true, while I am sure we all have much to offer one another I am sure we all require to make our way back to our own parallel universe-"

"Alternate."

Teyla raised an eyebrow at McKay as he interrupted. "Alternate Universe, not parallel. A parallel universe would be much like our own, as it is parallel with minor differences. If this one is drastically different then it is more likely an alternate. However, it could be parallel and we're simply so far away from home that we see no resemblance to our own reality."

Sheppard shot McKay a look. "You're not helping McKay."

"I'm just saying, for all we know this could be all our home universes and we're just so far away from home we don't realise it."

"McKay." Sheppard shot daggers at the scientist. "Not the time. In all seriousness." He looked directly at the commander. "With all due respect Sir, what my superior officer is interested in is Navigational Data and basic intel of any important systems."

No, I was referencing @Zarkun.

I got two P-90s, a blaster pistol with varying degrees of lethality and a third P-90 depending on the day of the week.

@Sep I'm fine being late. Just let me know where/when you'd rather me appear.

@Queen Raidne

If you'd rather start posting straight away, pick anywhere in the SW Galaxy and I can make it work, if you want to appear with us there'll be waiting required.

Star Wars - Galaxies at War[MULTIVERSE SPACESHIP RP]

@Queen Raidne You're going to be the last one I let apply, are you okay with being late to the party? We can always have you arrive in a different region of space if you want to play catchup.

Star Wars - Galaxies at War[MULTIVERSE SPACESHIP RP]

UNKNOWN LOCATION // CORUSCANT // GALACTIC CENTRE

Palpatine walked past the tall warriors dressed in black. A sneer on his face. Anubis had already taken to increase his own power sevenfold since he had arrived. These new Kull-Troopers were stronger than Clone Troopers, more deadly, obedient. They could heal from their wounds, should they ever get wounded. The armour they wore was incredible, it absorbed energy attacks from blasters of varying sizes and strength. From his tests, there wasn't much that could destroy one of these Kull-Troopers other than a strike from a turbo laser. With these forces, Palpatine would be able to solidify his place as Emperor of the galaxy ahead of his planned schedule. The only minor obstacle was Anubis himself.

The door opened into the ornate chambers that Anubis had designed for himself, he bowed his head slightly at Anubis as he entered. A sign of respect. "Tarkin reports that he will arrive at the Separatist holdout soon with three of our new ships. He doesn't expect they'll pose much of a problem given the specifications of the new Assimilators. That said I have still commissioned for the Imperial Star Destroyers I had designed to be built, albeit in much smaller numbers. With the technology you have provided they can be built much faster to increase the bulk of the Imperial Fleet, and we have found ways to incorporate some of your technology into the designs. They won't be nearly as powerful as the Assimilator but they'll still be a formidable vessel."

Anubis walked away, his back turned to Palpatine as he worked on a terminal. Would now be a good time to strike? He already had the technological specifications he needed. He didn't need much more from Anubis to further his power. "What of your Apprentice?"

"I have just dispatched Darth Vader to Mustafar to kill the remaining Separatist war leaders, then he will send the droid deactivation signal throughout the Galaxy. Any remaining Separatist holdout that uses droids for their armies will fall apart. Then it is a simple task of moving in and garrisoning the planet. With your improvements to the cloning process, Kamino should be outputting more Clone Troopers and Kull Troopers within the month. The Kaminoans have tried to resist, however, your last visit to them seems to have tempered them."

"Good. Inform Tarkin that I want this vessel-" A hologram appeared of the Eggman's ship. "-captured intact. It is emitting a radiation signature I am rather curious about, and the droids it used seem far more advanced than anything this universe boasts. I wish to speak to its commander to determine how they came to this place. I have my theories, and if they are correct all that I have planned is at risk if we do not move swiftly."

"All you have planned?" Anger welled in Palpatine. "You arrogant fool!" He raised his arms letting loose electricity as he let his anger go. "You would be nothing without me!" Anubis' robes burned, and the terminal crackled as the energy burst through it destroying it. Palpatine stopped in shock as the robes burnt away, leaving a strange dark cloud where Anubis had stood, it turned to him as the lights in the room darkened.

"You are what I made you." Palpatine felt himself slam against the wall, but he hadn't sensed any use of the Force. "I could not do this in my reality, without fear of the Others coming down on me, but they are not here." Palpatine was raised and flung against another wall. "I saved your life from the Jedi. Gave you power beyond what you could ever imagine, and you dare threaten me." Palpatine's entire body was engulfed in pain. Then it stopped. "You will bow before your God. Swear fealty before me, or be destroyed."

Palpatine stood up, a defiant look of hatred in his eyes before he bowed. "I swear to you, my Lord." Looking up he had nothing but hatred in his eyes. "Now if you'll excuse me, I sensed a great disturbance in the void between stars near Kuat. I must dispatch a ship to find the source of the disturbance."

"Do so, and Palpatine." Palpatine turned back to face Anubis. "Try and betray me again, and I will destroy you."

---

While the remaining Separatist forces were already outnumbered by the Imperial Venators and their escorts. Four green windows opened in space, as four Large Ships dropped out of Hyperspace. On the bridge of one stood an ageing figure, recently promoted to Admiral. Willhulf Tarkin.

Surrounding the planet, launching fighters. He stood watching as the Separatist ships tried desperately to create a formation that would give them the slightest chance of victory. "Attention all vessels. This is Admiral Tarkin of the newly formed Galactic Empire. Stand down or be destroyed. To Princess Sonia Acorn. Your ship is also in violation of Imperial Space, and have previously instigated attacks against Imperial Forces. You are hereby ordered to power down your engines. The Emperor himself has questions for you and your vessel in where your vessel came from. You have my word you will not be harmed. Your technology intrigues us, and perhaps we can offer some form of arrangement. This is your one chance to negotiate with us peacefully, attack again or if you do not comply you will be deemed an enemy of the Empire, and dealt with as such."
