So, I finally caved in and created a character you may have noticed, Allen Beckett, and ideas came forward from there. Anyway, I wanted to get a sense on just who's active and who would be interested in expanding the N7 Special Ops, the multiplayer freelancers that aid the fight against the Reapers.
They start out as ex-Alliance marines that create a fighting force free of the Alliance's red tape, like Archangel's team on a galactic scale, taking on critical missions that conventional militaries dismiss as being too high-risk. But not for these characters. They're the elite, the heroes, hell, they're the protagonists. N7 Marines, former STG, asari commandos, turians seeking redemption, Terminus mercenaries, whatever.
They're just about perfect to unite characters. They simply divide into teams that need no complicated structure and take on missions as they are presented to help save the galaxy. What needs a bit more work is the organization itself.
Who are in charge? Not the heroic squad leaders, but the desk officers who put it all together? Alliance officers that assembled the first teams from N7 Marines and the people enabling our protagonists to keep fighting. Logistics, for goodness sakes. That's what I'm doing with Beckett, ensuring all your characters have weapons and ammo, but I'd like to see if most or all of the active community could agree upon characters to lead the organization. The architects, characters that are like Anderson and Hackett are to Commander Shepard.
So, roll call. Anyone want to take command?
