Because the speed of this thread was never meant to be fast paced, I haven't minded the time in between posts. That's what multiple stories on the side are for ;) I felt I was holding everyone back in "shot in the dark", but that was because I didn't have access to the internet as much as I do now. Please everyone do not feel like you are pressured to post. Keeping everyone updated is fantastic and I know I very much appreciate that :) and I thank you!<br/><br/><br/>I had intentions of bringing in a new rival group if this role play had gained enough popularity. And then the two groups would come in contact once in a while for battles (they'd each have their own threads and one thread will be for contact among the Rebels Vs the UNSC). As an example: The rival group would be the UNSC. A ship commanded by Jacobs that takes his own team into research of the Ohana Rebels after learning that Shana is the captain. That side of the story would involve side missions against insurrectionists, and enemy covenant while in pursuit of the Ohana Rebels. The inspiration had come from Gladiator's mission purpose, but would prove difficult otherwise. I would have to deny your idea Gladiator. It would be a lie to the UNSC and would make your character look bad, but you could suddenly get a comm in saying you are needed elsewhere. It would be ashame if I lost you, you were the first person I ever roleplayed on E with :< but I understand. If it is because of being on the bad guy side, I can get the good guy side rolling sooner than I had intended ;) the only thing I had written up were the character sheets for the guys I would be roleplaying there. Jacobs, Michaels, and Smith. Yes Smith is still alive ;)<br/><br/>btw: good luck on your tests King. The thread was intended for both interest checks and OOC. Would you feel more comfortable if there was a separate thread for OOC?
