	GM's: Pheonix_Rising StarCraft: The Legion Project Many years have passed since the destruction of the first overmind. Many years have passed since the Ghost operative, Kerrigan fell to the Zerg and dubbed herself the Queen of Blades. Now, twelve years after Kerrigans inevitable defeat at the hands of Rayner's Radiers, a new enemy has arisen... THE LEGION PROJECT The Legion was formed about a year after the destruction of the second overmind. Jim Raynor and his raiders were conducting raids on the Terran Dominion for weapons and supplies. On one of their raids they found a group of 120 children in a sublevel of a Dominion installation. These children were candidates for the Ghost program. The raiders took the children and fled the station. Upon returning to their own base, they conducted physicals on the children and found that while they had not undergone full ghost training, some of their latent psionic abilities had been awakened. If they did not recieve proper training, their powers would continue to grow and they would not have the discipline to control them. Raynor took this problem to the Protoss. The Protoss agreed to train the children on the condition that they would not be solely a human force and would assist with the defense of Shakuras. Raynor agreed. The children began their tutelage under the Protoss. The Protoss and Terrans were both impressed by the psionic abilities of the Legionnaires. Without the inhibitors that Ghosts normally possessed, their powers rose to match the abilities of some Protoss warriors, and in a much shorter time. Their training completed in about 8 years, and were split into ten 10-man teams, each with it's own specialty. To enhance the capabilities of the whole, the members of each team are rotated periodically. KEEP IN MIND YOU ARE PROFESSIONAL EXTREMELY WELL TRAINED SOLDIERS, IF YOU WANT A COMPARISON...THINK THE MASTER CHEIF FROM HALO.

Public flaming will be punished, take it off the boards if you hve to do it at all. 6. Post like this EXAMPLE: (Post character name, time of day, and location.

Middle of Nowhere This is an example so i am not going to actually post something. Actions: 1. Lengthy Speech. 2. Fire at target. _____________________________________________________ 7.

Death is a real thing, we will try our best to keep characters alive, but if a character does something extremely stupid, don't expect us to pull punches. The easiest way to die is not post in a combat, if you will be gone for a lengthy period of time, tell us please. WELCOME TO THE LEGION...

All of the weapons developed for the Legion through a collaborative effort between the Protoss and terrans. As such, they have a human look with some Protoss stylings. Pistol: Plasma pistol with semi-auto fire mode, 50 round energy cell Auto-Rifle: Plasma rifle with semi-auto and full-auto fire modes, 100 round energy cell, 2x scope included Sniper Rifle: Plasma rifle with semi-auto fire mode, has longer range than the plasma rifle, 50 round energy cell, 2x-10x telescopic scope included Rocket launcher: Single shot rocket launcher with high yield anti-matter warhead. Grenade: Standard thrown explosive device, press the stud and in 5 seconds it goes boom. Also, there is a standard armor. Tactical Powered Armor: This matte black suit of armor was inspired by the Protoss armor typically worn by Zealots. It doubles the speed and triples the strength of a normal human user. Also, it contains a khaydarin crystal circuitry in the underlay of the suit, amplifying the psionic powers of the user. (about 1.5x effectiveness.) Any other canon equipment can be requisitioned, eg. Ghost Hostile environment suit, Marine Gauss canon, Firebat armor w/perdition flamethrowers etc... Just be polite and ask for it in-game through one of your superiors. Keep in mind this is a military game and you will have a chain of command.

	OOG: Just a note- The only guys from Earth are members of the United Earth Directorate (who were enemies of both Rayner and Mengsk before they got beaten by Kerrigan). Anyone else stopped being from Earth several centuries ago. Technically, you don't have a nationality (or at least, not one of any real significance to us Earthers) as most of you originate on various planets in the Koprulu Sector, descended from the various settlers who landed there (some planets being the original crash sites for the first prison vessels (don't have my manual on hand) from Earth, others from those who expanded from the crash zones). Hmmm... the Terran history from the manual might actually be pretty useful, along with other mentions of various Starcraft thingies. For starters, Wikipedia And Starcraft Wiki And Battle.net, complete with pictures -----signature----- CDG Guild Master Strange how one small thing can determine the fate of so many... especially if it's a twenty-sided die The Internet is SERIOUS BIZNESS! It's all fun and games until someone loses a leg. TF.N RPGs: Less fun than pretending to have sex

	OOC: Turncoats exist on both sides of the war, Light. And who said that everyone who was from the UED Died or fled? Maybe somebody besides the UED came? They proved it was possible to reach this galaxy, why stop at that? Who's to say a crazy russian didn't catapult himself and his family into space to escape the oppression on the planet? I made this character with those possiblities in mind, not just a copy and paste job. I apprieciate your concern, and see where you are coming from, but I don't see the reason why a character could not have come from our little blue planet a long long time ago. -----signature----- GA Genin of jedi_whitelight1 RPF Adoptee of Zandoran_Celix Senator of Ithor, Galactic Senate Game Proud member of the Holy Trinity (GMG, GDG, CDG)

	GM Intervention:no need to get jumpy people, Light wasn't in the wrong on anything but neither was Arclite. I too, was opening up the possibilities of survivors from the original UED, or a group of high class settlers that have somehow worked their way through the chaos of paperwork to get to the colonies...which was going to be a main plotline, but it's not a secret anymore... Also, i don't expect their to be much more OOC clutter from now on. I'm working on the first post and recruiting more players, so if anyone knows anyone, TELL THEM TO JOIN!!! I promise it will be fun, especially if you guys throw things at me that I would have never expected. -----signature----- Proud Member of the Game Designers Guild -Without R2-D2, there is no Star Wars- One of those wierd In-House D20 people...
