Character Creation
- The Story so Far:
- In 2186, the greatest threat that humanity has ever known nearly succeeded in destroying all life in the galaxy. The only thing that stood in the way was the late Commander Shepard, who sacrificed himself to destroy them.
Since then, the Reapers have been studied. Their technologies have been synthesized, and humanity - and every race in the galaxy - have made giant steps forward. This led to advancements in mass effect technologies, including research into inter-galactic travel. Until now, it had been thought that no species could achieve such a thing, but now, they can. Using some of the outer relays, ships equipped with the necessary equipment can now travel beyond the known galaxy. New galaxies present new unknowns, and someone who can explore these unknowns is needed.
The Alliance built a ship with a combination of Alliance, Cerberus, and Reaper technologies capable of charting out the galaxy. With it being a sister ship to the Normandy, the Alliance named it Warsaw. The council deemed it necessary to put Commander Bartlett in charge of the Warsaw.
- Races:
- Humans:
- Humans, from the planet Earth, are the newest sentient species of notable size to enter the galactic stage and are the most rapidly expanding and developing. They independently discovered a Prothean data cache on Mars in 2148, and the mass relay networks shortly thereafter.
- Asari:
- The Asari, native to the planet Thessia, are often considered the most influential and respected sentient species in the galaxy, and are known for their elegance, diplomacy, and biotic aptitude. This is partly due to the fact that the asari were among the earliest races to achieve interstellar flight after the Protheans, and the first to discover and settle the Citadel. A mono-gender race, the asari are distinctly feminine in appearance and possess maternal instincts. Their unique physiology, expressed in a millennium-long lifespan gives them a conservative yet convivial attitude toward other races. Favoring compromise and cooperation over conflict, the asari were instrumental in proposing and founding the Citadel Council and have been at the heart of galactic society ever since.
- Salarian:
- The second species to join the Citadel, the Salarians are warm-blooded amphibians native to the planet Sur'Kesh. Salarians possess a hyperactive metabolism; they think fast, talk fast, and move fast. To salarians, other species seem sluggish and dull-witted, especially the elcor. Unfortunately, their metabolic speed leaves them with a relatively short lifespan; salarians over the age of 40 are a rarity. Salarians are known for their observational capability and non-linear thinking. This manifests as an aptitude for research and espionage. They are constantly experimenting and inventing, and it is generally accepted that they always know more than they are letting on.
- Turian:
- Known for their militaristic and disciplined culture, the Turians were the third race to join the Citadel Council. They gained their Council seat after defeating the hostile krogan for the Council during the Krogan Rebellions. The turians deployed a salarian-created biological weapon called the genophage, which virtually sterilised the krogan and sent them into a decline. The turians then filled the peacekeeping niche left by the once-cooperative krogan, and eventually gained a Council seat in recognition of their efforts. Originally from the planet Palaven, turians are best known for their military role, particularly their contributions of soldiers and starships to the Citadel Fleet. They are respected for their public service ethic—it was the turians who first proposed creating C-Sec—but are sometimes seen as imperialist or rigid by other races. There is some animosity between turians and humans, largely due to the turian role in the First Contact War. This bitterness is slowly beginning to heal—as shown by the cooperation of the two races on the construction of the SSV Normandy—but many turians still resent humans, and vice versa.
- Krogan:
- The Krogan are a species of large reptilian bipeds native to the planet Tuchanka, a world known for its harsh environments, scarce resources, and overabundance of vicious predators. The krogan managed to not only survive on their unforgiving homeworld, but actually thrived in the extreme conditions. Unfortunately, as krogan society became more technologically advanced, so did their weaponry. The end result is that they destroyed their homeworld in a nuclear war that reduced their race into primitive warring tribes. With the help of the salarians, the krogan were "uplifted" into galactic society, and lent their numbers and military prowess to bring an end to the Rachni Wars. Ironically, after the rachni were eradicated, the rapidly-expanding krogan became a threat to the galaxy in turn, starting the Krogan Rebellions and forcing the turians to unleash the genophage.
- Quarian:
- The Quarians are a nomadic species of humanoid aliens known for their skills with technology and synthetic intelligence. Since their homeworld Rannoch was conquered, the quarians live aboard the Migrant Fleet, a huge collection of starships that travel as a single fleet. Approximately three hundred years before the events of 2183, the quarians created the geth, a species of rudimentary artificial intelligences, to serve as an efficient source of manual labor. However, when the geth gradually became sentient, the quarians became terrified of possible consequences and tried to destroy their creations. The geth won the resulting war and forced their creators into exile. Now the quarians wander the galaxy in a flotilla of salvaged ships, secondhand vessels, and recycled technology.
- Drell:
- The Drell are a reptile-like race that were rescued from their dying homeworld by the hanar following first contact between the two. Since then, the drell have remained loyal to the hanar for their camaraderie and have fit comfortably into galactic civilization.
- Geth:
- The Geth ("Servant of the People" in Khelish) are a race of networked artificial intelligences that reside beyond the Perseus Veil. The geth were created by the quarians as laborers and tools of war. When the geth became sentient and began to question their masters, the quarians attempted to exterminate them. The geth won the resulting war, and reduced the quarians to a race of nomads. The history of the geth's creation and evolution serves as a warning to the rest of the galaxy of the potential dangers of artificial intelligence and to the legally enforced, systematic repression of artificial intelligences throughout galactic society.

- Commander Eduard Bartlett:
- Name: Eduard Bartlett
Race: Human
Age: 26
Rank: Commander
Appearance: Eduard has short light brown hair, green eyes, and pale skin. He has a very haggard and serious expression most of the time, but that is simply a side-effect of what he’s been through. When he’s in his casual attire, Eduard usually wears a blue Alliance t-shirt, and standard-issue cargos. In combat, he wears dark blue standard issue N7 armor.
History: Eduard was 14 when the Reapers attacked – and destroyed – the colony he lived in. They took away everyone he ever knew, and he was one of the only survivors. Thankfully, he was saved by some Alliance soldiers. Since then, he’s devoted his service to the Alliance, quickly rising through the ranks.
Eduard never thought he’d ever be the Commander of a vessel, let alone a prototype inter-galactic vessel. However, he was the best person available to pave the way into the neighboring galaxies.
- Urdnot Kregar:
- Name: Urdnot Kregar
Race: Krogan
Age: Unknown, probably around 1100
Rank: Battlemaster
Appearance: Blue eyes, tan scales, and a orange facial plate.
History: Was a typical Krogan, who became tired of the daily life. Was recommended by Urdnot Wrex to accompany the Warsaw on its mission.
