Star Trek Interest Check

What roles are everyone thinking about? My station person I’m leaning towards Engineer / Science. Ship crew I’m flexible .

I hope I didn't seem to be taking you to task. I meant only to answer your question. :)

I'm thinking hologram for my second character then. An officer of some sort for my Starfleet character

I feel a need for a cat avatar ... Idle curiosity, when did the desire to run 2 PC’s in a game appear? I’ve noticed it a lot lately and it’s not something ai recall much from the distant past, unless you were GMing in which case the world was your oyster.

I sent @Whtknt an idea for one in a PM just to run it past you before I invest any more time on a thought. I thought maybe an ex-borg for the starfleet person, I’ll look more as time permits.

Totally all right, I tend to skim on my phone, it’s hard to read large sections of text.

Interesting. This is actually the first game I've come across where there was an expectation of running two characters. If it's a trend, it's an intriguing one.

These are kind of tentative concepts, I’ll need to find some images and flesh out a back story with some hooks for the GM.

This is something of an experiment on my part. I've had people run two characters in games where there was a shortage of players, but they have always been allies. This will be my first foray into dealings with a duality that is diametrically opposed.

I'll be science officer. Someone else can be in charge if things go wrong. So do we have enough interest? It sounds like we're all leaning pretty heavily into this. If so, I'll go through and roll up a sheet for Elijah. May pick a different race, but that depends on if anything jumps out at me.

Yes, we are a go! I'll set up a proper thread tomorrow.

Is there a rough timeLine we can be pointed in the direction of? So we can ground back stories in events.

I think it was mentioned earlier that the time is TNG, after the war with the Dominion.

Yep.

My thoughts are they the Trill is a science officer
While my station personnel is a security officer / detective / enforcer

Maybe you should already create a game forum for the character creation if you have all your players assembled ;)

Okay, the forum has been created and invites sent out. De Joker, were you interested, or just hanging around? As of right now, I have room for one more.

No just interjecting -- as the Flerkens were abounding ;) -- plates full enough but thanks for asking

I would be really interested in an STA game if there is one starting
