Alright guys, I have been considering a Star Trek RP for a little while. What finally pushed me to posting this was Kairu having a similar idea.
With that said, I really wanna try a Star Trek RP. I am really excited about this RP. I have considered some ideas for this RP...and here is what I have thought of thus far.
1. The events would be start just after Star Trek Nemesis.
2. The playable races would be Human, Klingon, Romulan, Vulcan, Andorian, Gorn, Bajoran, Ferengi, Cardassian, Betazed, Trill (with hosts), and any others that you wanna suggest that are worthy.
3. I might consider adding some playable Delta Quadrent races if you think it is fine. A possible list would include Devor, Krenim, Hirogen, Talaxian, Kazon, and any others you wanna suggest that you think are worthy.
4. Borg and Species 8472 are not allowed to be RP'ed, with exception granted to story arcs that permit it. After the story arc ends, that Character either needs to be sheleved for future use, or killed off...but no active use (as this is just asking people to randomly attack other players)
5. I am thinking of taking the STO approach to uniforms, where you can customize...but not to the point where everyone wears something different. I think we should have a uniform code, which different branches of the same organization having different uniforms. FOr example: Starfleet would use Their Nemesis outfits, while flag officers and Admirals will use Admiral uniforms, Section 31 would use Section 31 outfits...etc.
6. With that said, major powers do have their sub branches. Starfleet has Section 31. Romulans have the Tal Shiar, Cardassians have the Obsidian Order.
7. Weapons are pretty much free for all. However, these people are not walking tanks, so more often than not, people have a primary and secondary weapon with a tertiary device (such as tricorder)
8. People should have a choice whether to form their own ship and crew, or be a member of someone else's crew.
9. There needs to be a clear-cut chain of command. Not everyone can be Admirals. This is generally first come-first serve for ranks. While there are varying levels for Admirals...not everyone is going to be Fleet Admiral...then all we would have is (You can't pull rank, etc etc etc). With that said, I am thinking these ranks can be earned through a combination of good posting, and post count, or we simply enforce a limit on how many Admirals you can have. People of Equal rank can choose pull rank on each other based on ship class. The stronger the ship, the more pull you have. This was defined in the episode of Voyager called Equinox Part 1
10. No killing other players without their permission. This is a given.
11. Your crew must be somewhat realistic. A Starfleet ship isn't going to be all Vulcans or all Hirogen. A Klingon ship won't be all Romulans. (Certain plot exceptions can apply though). Generally speaking...a Starfleet ship needs mostly humans...a Klingon ship needs mostly Klingons...a Romulan ship needs mostly Romulans...etc etc etc. You can have a diverse crew...just a crew that mostly consists of the dominant race.
12. I am thinking we have the RP in one massive thread, which each section being divided into parts (like NHRPG). I like this idea cause we can also call them episoders, each thread dealing with one plotline at a time. When this is done and controlled correctly, it can be quite effective.
Obviously Star Trek has a pretty expansive universe, so it is obvious we have a wiki for it...which can be found HERE.
If you guy have any ideas to add, please post them in this thread.
