We are going to be starting a new Star Trek RPG but this time we will be starting it from scratch. We will be creating our own ship, and characters.

I will be playing the role of Admiral Dillard so we have pretty much all of the crew positions available.

I was thinking that we could use a Defiant class starship complete with a cloaking device and name it the USS Challenger.

What does everyone think? And what crew positions would you like, keep in mind that you should put together a short bio of your character, so have fun with it. PM me with the positions that you would like or post them here, in the event that two members choose the same position I will make a decision and inform them both of who will be using the position.

Also, VBG will be making guest appearences as Q, or QGB. LOL

Hmm... Any chance I could play the role of a time traveler from the 31st century? I'm not sure if it could fit into the plot, but I feel I could pull off the part well without creating confusing time travel story. If not, I have another idea that would work, I just love playing the time traveler.

I was thinking about playing the Borg. Just want to see how it is to play the bad guys.....

what about a new starship and crew. the players get to crete there own characters. create a ship. the mission do whatever in the federation

Uhmm....That is what I said ^^^^^^ I am just waiting for people to send me character profiles.

Name: James Phaserman
Species: Human
Possition desired: Executive Officer or Tactical Officer.
background: A veteran officer, Phaserman is skilled in both tactics and the use of capital ship-scale weapons. while prefering to stay with the bigger ships, he is not adverse to developing new and unorthodox tactics to work with the Defiant class.

James Phaserman has been named as Captain of the USS Challenger.

Name: Shri Keban
Gender: Male
Species: Bajoran
Possition desired: Hazard team personal/commander or security/ tactical
background: fought in the occupation as a freedom fighter. hates cardassains. is ranked sniper with several different rifles.

Shri Keban has been assigned to tactical.

I drew up a pic of some possible new uniforms for the challenger...

Click for Spoiler:

Name: Daniel Balton

Species: Human/Vulcan/Klingon/Ocampan

Rank: Lieutennant

Possition desired: Science Officer & Chronologist

Background: All that is known about Daniel is that he's from a version of the 31st century lost to the Temporal Cold War. With no future to return to, he has decided to start a new life in Starfleet of the late 24th century. Some say that Daniel has supernatural abilities, but this is purely rumor and speculative.

(Like I said before; I want to be a bad guy, so here it is: )

Name: Borg Queen
Species: Borg

(You propaly know the rest, but if you want some more, please tell so. By the way, since I'm the Borg Queen, that must mean that I controll all of the Collective... )

Name: Nameless red-shirt ensign (without a speaking part) who gets killed to show that the situation is dangerous.

Just trying to do my fair share.

Please disregard the above spoiler in my last post...the pic didn't work. I was taking it from my profile.

We'll see if I send some drones over to assimilate you in the RPG....

Name: Nor Driv
Gender: Male
Species: Ferengi
Desired Position: Lounge Operator/ Bartender/Cook
BackGround: Driv was on DS8 for a 1-1/2 yr, as promenade operator. Before that he was a cook for the Grand Nagus, And before that he was selling drinks on all passing ships for very high prices.
Criminal Record: Stolen 3 Cases Of Romulan Ale, Stolen 1 Gold Press Latinum Bar,
Stowaway onboard a klingon cruiser.

Defiant class starships have bars? Wow, I suppose they do pack things into such relatively small craft.

i know nothing on star ships.... but they don't have lounges?pitiful

a lounge on a warship?

Ummm........Yeaaaaaaa........ anyways, can't i be cook? i know you have a kitchen at least!

Defiant-class ships don't have lounges, but they would need a cook.

Defiant-class ships are compact warships, only 4 decks thick, in case you were wonderring why they don't have anything like a lounge.

Hence I am perfectly suited to commanding a defiant class starship. explorers just aren't my thing.

does this mean i get to be cook? yay!

If Ddillard OK's it, sure.

ok... i'll ask

If the captain does not have a problem with having a Ferengi cook with a criminal record it is okay with me, but that would be his decision.

Captain, Oh Captain. Can I Be Cook Pleaseeeeeee

So, Ddillard, can I be science officer and ship's chronologist, a Human/alien mix from a distant future, lost to the TCW?

Hey, LOTB, you can be the cook, but I will have security gaurds watching you all the time. you won't be able to use the head without one of them there

I am still debating about the future part. Not so sure how it would work out, and with the Temporal prime directive I doubt that starfleet would allow someone from the future to serve on an active starship

YAY i'm THE FERENGI-WITH-A-CRIMINAL-RECORD-COOK!!!!!!! *salutes* i'll do my best sir! errr, do u have a website for this simm?

Well, if there's a "no" on the "guy from the future part", can I still be science and chronologist officer?

Picard, I'll accept your charactor as Science officer/Chronologist, though I will wait on Ddillard's verdict on the future part before approving that.

Am i justa tactical officer or the head of security. cause i would rather have a smaller part. so=uch as a normal tactical officer/ security guard

also what is my rank. i would preferibaly want to be a ensign or Lt.

i am cook

Ensign just out of the academy assigned to tactical after taking an advanced training course at the academy.

That will be fine without the future part.

Ddillard, I was just wondering... What do you think of my suggestion of my position which I told earlier in this thread?

Hmmm, do we have a website for this sim?(apart from this one) and, if not, do you want me to make one? i am very talented Web designer!

ok, i made a page, and even though it doesnt have anything on it, tell what to put on it and i will Dill, or whoever.

www.geocities.com/faass24/usschallenger.html

did anyone look at it???

It's not a SIM, it's a RPG, and we do it here on this forum.

ic

ok thanks

when will the rpg start

I'm assuming when we have a full crew. as far as I can tell, we've got 4 poeple, myself included. I'd be willing to get it going if you guys wanted to pull double duty.

sure

Pending approval by Ddillard, I will create a temprorary crew roster, including double duty assignments. LOTB, as soon as I am done, I will forward it to you and you can put it on that website.

ok

this is not official, but here is what I have


Captain: Capt. Jim Phaserman
Cheif Of Security/Tactical/Helm: Ens. Shri Keban
Science Officer/Chronologist: Lt. Daniel Balton
Cook: Acting Ensign Nor Driv

We need to keep everything here on the boards, there is no need to create another website for it. If it is moved off the boards the MODS do not have the ability to administrate and it would then not be an STF.NET RPG. I will start a thread and pin it in the RPG forum to post the roster in, but the thread will remain closed to posting until the crew is ready to get under way.
