Hm... While you're here, here's some odd questions, mostly in relation to alien-related tropes abused in Star Trek:
-If the ship comes across an intelligent alien race that's friendly, will they open trade with them? Even if they don't have space-travel yet? Basically, do they have a Prime Directive and do they actually follow it?
-Do you think the ship would end up picking up a Token Outsystem Alien found stranded in a failing ship or something? By that, I mean one not from the same solar system as the base races? I would assume they would morally choose to help the poor sod out, but if they were to end up being a useful crewmate and had nowhere to really go, would they let them stay? I would guess not.
-I assume some aliens would have more powerful AI? Like the lock on learning AI isn't a hard-lock in this universe, right?
-WE ARE THE BORG. YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED. RESISTANCE IS FUTIL-err... *coughs* Are there any up-and-coming big threats in the universe? Will there be a reccurring enemy, basically? You don't have to say what, I'm just curious if you have plans for that. (Also, I wouldn't object to seeing a borg-like group of cybernetic-enhanced races. They don't even have to be unfriendly. Cybernetics are cool.)
-Energy Beings. Yay or nay? Do things like this exist at all, whether they ascended to a higher plane of existance or just happen to be made of pure something that usually seems to function as between matter and energy in media and besides energy is the flow of electrons which are matter so WHATEVER.
-Are the homesystem races... um... compatible. (Natural) hybrids, yay or nay?
- Possibly.
- You'll find out. Maybe. To note, they have built learning AI, but they're just not powerful enough and considered not worth the trouble.
- Yes, you'll have a reoccurring enemy.
- Ascension is not a subject this RP will involve itself with.
- Yes, but don't expect the results to be pretty.
If any of you have any last-minute edits to do to your characters, you have until the RP start.
