Spartan-II project
 

In the beginning you were alone, and taken on board a space ship for the first time. It was all just a blur to your young mind. You were only 6 after all. You were crowed in with 74 other kids your age, boys and girls. You were brought to a where you were gathered up and brought before a woman, who would grow to become a mother of sorts to you. Even now you can remember the words she spoke as if they were said only minutes ago.

Dr. Catherine Halsey

Quote:

"As per Naval Code 45812, you are hereby conscripted into the UNSC Special Project, codenamed SPARTAN-II. You have been called upon to serve. You will be trained...and you will become the best we can make you. You will be the protectors of Earth and all of her colonies. This will be hard to understand, but you cannot return to your parents. This place will become your home, your fellow trainees will be your family now. The training will be difficult. There will be a great deal of hardship on the road ahead, but I know you will all make it. Rest now, we will begin tomorrow."

The woman was Doctor Catherine Halsey and on that day you became something more than what you would have been had you not be selected. Dr. Halsey was true to her word, you became more than human through your education, training and the augmentation process that was at the heart of the SPARTAN-II program. You became the arm that helped keep the UNSC together from the Innees. Still even then you felt you had a greater destiny, a larger role to play in the universe. That time came when the alien invaders known collectively as the Covenant attacked and destroyed a planet called Harvest. Humanity has been at a war for its very survival from that day. You have been striking back when you can but you no humanity is on the losing end of this war.

You are a Spartan, trained to find a way to win off the slimmest of hopes. To fight and to win. Fate has handed you that chance with a transfer by ONI to become part of blackops "Ghost" unit.

It is the moment to embody those words spoken so long ago, to serve, to protect all of Humanity.

You are a Spartan and woe to all your enemies.

I give you props on the idea Blakkmonk. Shadowrun is a good choice for a system as it should be able to handle the levels of augmented human power. I am not a huge fan of the Halo universe, but this has peaked my interest.

You know what I am working on Blakkmonk. To all others I will be making a Sniper Chararacter. The character is a bit mentally disturbed, but not in such a way that it will damage anyone. He just seems to have a general lack of empathy and laconic state. His weapons of choice will be Shotgun and the Sniper Rifle. He is not designed to be a Leader type in any way.

Also just so you know blakkmonk, you have a couple typos in your ad. No big deal, but you might want to fix the Wraith Squad Spoiler Box. I would like to apply for one of the Petty Officer positions in that squad. I like the name.

Again, not a big fan of the HALO universe so to speak. However, I've always had a crazy interest in Shadowrun, and the idea of playing a Spartan II CQC Specialist or a Heavy Gunner sounds like a load of fun. I'll definitely look into it.

Thanks all. This will be more of an expanded universe idea and not just an FPS romp. Expect different aliens, unusual planets, and a bit more equipment a military would expect to use.

Interesting that you're using Shadowrun for a Halo game. I've been trying to read the 4e crb, but I keep getting distracted lol
So if I can't be a player, I'd like to be a reader at least.

Edit: Hrm...being an A.I. could be interesting :3

I'm interested. If I have time I will try and submit an AI.

I went back and forth on systems but I felt it did a lot of things right that I wanted over all. The Spartan/AI team was a central theme and I wanted them to integrate properly. With Shadowrun I didnt have to re-invent the wheel, so to speak.

I look forward to seeing it.

Just found this and thought I would share. For anyone interest in a Heavy Weapons Spec.
