Mass Effect: Pathfinder

Error 420

One Thousand Club
I find myself in a sticky spot, absolutely in lovewith the concept of Andromeda, while the actual game leaves a lot to be desired, for a lot of reasons. Recently, I've come up with my own spin on the Andromeda concept that I think is a better service to the universe it's placed in. This does not follow the plot of Mass Effect Andromeda. This does not have the same worlds, people, species, or anything of the Andromeda video game. This is a new galaxy, teeming with new wonders and dangers. It will be using the Mass Effect D6 system, which I have found to be very simple and easy to pick up. If enough people prefer the use of another system, I may consider switching to Pathfinder, GURPS, Mass Effect D20, or building my own system.

Prior Mass Effect knowledge is not necessary, but maybe recommended.

Intro:

After the defeat of the Collectors by Commander Shepard, many feared for an actual Reaper attack. The few who believed Shepard were desperate, looking for answers, until they found it in the Council’s top secret Andromeda Initiative that had been put in place following the attack on the Citadel. The plan: Arks. Massive ships that were capable of supplying a crew of up to 5000 with a new home among the stars in the Andromeda Galaxy. They recruited “subjects” from the masses to embark on this journey on Salarian, Turian, and combined Asari-Human Arks. They had their sights on one cluster in specific, nicknamed “the cradle”. Scientific analysis proved that this area was full of worlds that could potentially support life. The crew and passengers were frozen for these 20 years as they journeyed into dark space, mere minutes after the Reaper attack began. As they launched from the undiscovered and secret relay built by an unknown civilization, they were looking back on the death of a galaxy.

They journeyed forth into the void of eternity, with one singular mission: find a new home. To this end, a few among the crew were Pathfinders: elite soldiers and scientists. You are embarking on the final step of your mission, and the beginning of your lives as members of the Pathfinder team. Your mission is to explore the galaxy, meeting new species, and finding a place for your species among the cosmos. Life for millions depends on you. Can you withstand the challenges presented in a new universe?


Mass Effect D6 Website (includes rulebook)


We currently have one person interested. This is a discord-based voice game, although if you want to play single-player I will go for a text-based game for you.

The website for the rulebook is here: masseffectd6.blogspot.com/

You are currently the only interested player. Give me one or two days to come up with the final elements of the campaign, after which it's up to you if you want to wait for more players or have it be a single-player campaign. If you know anyone who might be interested, please don't hesitate to ask them if they'd like to join.

Also, this is a discord-based campaign that uses voice to play, are you okay with that? If it's singleplayer I could restrict it to RPN posts, but I'd prefer to go voice.
 
Didn't mean to blow you off this long, sorry!

Between work and my 1 year old, I pretty much never have time for voice to play. Apologies. If you get a group together and want to go that route, have a lovely time. :) If you do play by post, well, I do love my Mass Effect (though I've yet to play Andromeda).

Anyone else interested in this RP?
