I'm thinking maybe a security chief, or marine for my character...

The links above should mention all of the episodes of the various series in which the Mirror Universe is explored. I'd suggest watching them if you can find them. All Trek series are on Netflix, and I'm sure if you do a search for streaming Trek episodes you'll find them as well. Watching them is by no means required, but it'll give you some background on the "dark side" of Trek.

This is sounding better and better. I'll be checking out those links soon enough- in the meantime, I might play me a command officer, sneaky and devious enough to stay above their cutthroat crew while trying for a place in the bigger scheme to cause corruption...

I like it.

Is this mirror universe campaign going to be set before or after the Terran Rebellion? If before, then has Spock become the Terran Emperor? And, if after, then how far along are the rebels in their cause? I ask for sake of motivation for my character's goals- and hope it isn't a trouble!

Thank you in advance

I honestly don't know what time frame I'm going to set it in yet, I-Binary. As I've said, this thread is just to gauge interest so far. I've set a deadline of a week to see how many will be interested before I start writing; that week's not up until Monday. I want to see how many more we might pick up, if any, over the weekend. Number of players will be a factor in which era we play.

Also, just fyi, the established time lines and events may or may not be a big factor in the game. I like the ongoing timeline in the Mirror Universe and am very familiar with it, but I envision this being a unique game with unique circumstances. I don't like being beholden to a given "canon"; it can get restrctive.

So don't devise too intense of a plan for your character and his/her motivations yet. I'm brainstorming all sorts of things that go in all sorts of directions. And I'll be sure to give plenty of time to get your characters planned after I lay out a basic premise; there's no rush.

More to come at the beginning of the week!

Alrighty then. Sounds like it's all good, I shan't pester you any longer

Thank you very much! I really hope this can go!

Giving this one last bump to see if there are any other folks interested in playing this. If no one else responds, I have I-Binary, Padre, Eol Feffylatypus, and Astrid as interested parties; I'll shoot each of you a PM to confirm your interest, then I'll start putting fingers to keyboard and putting together an overall storyline.

Hey all,

As of this afternoon, I am going to be on major overtime at work for the rest of the week and possibly this weekend.

Thus, getting some initial material ready is going to be delayed, probably until the first of next week.

Just wanted to keep everyone in the loop. If the four folks I mentioned in my previous post remain interested, we will still launch. If not, I may keep this game on the back burner for a bit, as I feel like four would be the absolute minimum to keep things hopping and interesting for all.

So, when it looks like the end of overtime is in sight, I'll send those PMs to the four of you to confirm that you're still interested.

And of course, if anyone else peruses this thread and is interested in playing, just give a shout here on the thread or PM me.

Thanks for bearing with me.
