An RP set in the Convergence Series, a multifandom crossover RP series that focuses on seasonal events. This specific event is based primarily on Star Trek, with elements from Star Wars and Mass Effect present as well. Original Convergence lore will also be incorporated in some places. No prior knowledge of previous Convergence events or source material is required to participate.
In-character thread can be found here.
Far Away Lights
Captain's Log. Stardate 2259.49.
It's only been a relatively short time since the Enterprise set out for its five-year mission to boldly go where no one has gone before, and yet, in these travels, this crew has already been met with a number of strange encounters, full of both terror and wonder beyond any one person's wildest imaginations. Quite amazing when you think about it really, to explore just a small part of the observable universe and so quickly have your perspective changed as you learn about different cultures and their ways of life.
Of course, as First Officer Spock seems to almost enjoy dryly remarking, our history would have been significantly less bloody if such exploration was a thing that humans of the past enjoyed, and while there's little changing history, I suppose Mister Spock's words in of itself has given me some food for thought about how much humanity has progressed since our beginning, and how much further we could all come if we continue to keep moving forward with hard progress. Perhaps somewhere else, in another quadrant or even another dimension altogether, there's a world where humanity had decided to forego violence much sooner, but I won't think too far ahead. Not when there's so much left to explore and learn about.
After all, it isn't like I expect to find myself bumping into someone or something from a wholly different dimension any time soon.
That'd just be absurd. Even for a space traveler.
The year is 2257.
After a number of grueling trials and tribulations, those serving on board the USS Discovery are able to finally take a moment and breathe. The crew is not without its scars and wounds, but they are able to continue working with confidence, and perhaps that is the most important thing. However, as life as a Starfleet officer has proven to be, their time for reprieve is brief and fleeting, as they will soon find out.
When a mysterious accident related to the mycelial network occurs, a group of discombobulated individuals from across the multiverse are gathered and packed into one location; the Discovery itself. Determined to get this group of lost souls back to their home worlds, the Discovery makes their move forward, but this accident is quickly revealed to hardly be an isolated one, as the crew's voyage home quickly becomes a grand journey through space and time that, unbeknownst to anyone in that moment in time or even beyond, will shake the entire multiverse.
A journey that boldly goes where no one has gone before.
1. Naturally, all of STC's rules apply here.
2. Please be respectful towards everyone in the OOC, including myself and @Atomic Knight. After all, as the GMs, whatever we say goes!
3. If you're a newcomer, welcome! Though the Convergence Series is a mass fandom roleplay with its own original lore that's been built up and up for a while, don't let all that intimidate you. Previous knowledge of the Convergence Series in general or any of the past events isn't totally required to enjoy this event. That being said, as a fairly tight-knit community, we suggest and encourage you to join our Discord server (see above) to keep up with updates and meet the community, as that's where all the OOC chatter will be based.
4. This should be a given, but no godmodding / metagaming! I'll try to be somewhat lenient with the idea of nerfing any potentially overpowered characters, and I'll likely more often than not leave it to your discretion, but I'd also like you to meet me or @Atomic Knight halfway here if there might be any issues regarding that kind of stuff.
5. Players of all posting levels are welcome here. That being said, please at least put something whenever you make a post. We'd like as little IC posts being nothing but image spam or so as possible. Speaking of image spam, please only post a maximum of three images / GIFs per post in order to not flood the page with images that make it harder to load, that is if you do intend on using pictures like icons and so forth.
7. Due to the intended speed of the game (ideally to wrap up in a month or two), it is highly recommended to seek out other users to be your "posting partners" so that you have some people you can stick with. Using the tagging system will be a must. It's fine (and encouraged) to only keep up with a few characters / players for the majority of the game for ease, as that is far easier than trying to keep tabs on everyone. Summaries and important GM posts will be made prominent, or at least, I'll try to remember.
8. Due to this event being a prequel in-universe, I'll have to advise against any decision to reprise characters previously portrayed (moreso pertaining to returning players), so not as to create discrepancies in the Convergence Series timeline.
9. You're allowed to sign up as up to two characters if you'd like, but the duo will have to be from the same canon, if only for simplicity's sake, and more than that, they should be characters who would be normally working together, as per the standard from previous events.
If you have any questions about something I might have forgotten, do feel free to ask! Certain rules and processes may or may not be added and removed on a whim.
Appearance: Self-explanatory. Just a picture is fine if you'd like.
Name: What is your character's name? Do they generally go by an alias / nickname?
Age: Chronologically, how old is your character?
Canon: What does your character originate from? If your character is an OC, just say "OC." If your character is an OC specifically from an established canon, put the name of the canon and "OC" next to it, for example "Star Wars OC" or so.
Powers / Abilities / Equipment: What is your character capable of, and if they have notable items they carry around, like weapons, is there anything special about them? While we'll be lenient with what to nerf and what not to, naturally, hopefully you'll know the drill. Just a Wiki link is fine.
Other Info: Optional. Just basically any extra info you feel is necessary that the GMs should know about.
