All right, before I crank out the introduction, I figured I'd post the template for your viewing pleasure, and of course for making your character. Also, I'll be explaining a few things. Here we go! PLEASE SEND YOUR REGISTRATIONS TO ME IN A PM.
Template:
Please keep in mind that everything needs to make sense. And if you choose something from the Mass Effect Universe, stick with it. Biotics and the Force are very similar but it'll be treated as two separate things since they each have different 'moves'. If you roll a specific class, you have to pick things available for that class only. No smuggler with jedi powers; while possible, will not be acceptable. If you roll a Turian, make sure the class you roll with makes sense, since not many have, for example, Biotics; though there is an organization for that and could, realistically, be rolled [association would be Cabals]. Asari are likely to have Biotics incorporated. I don't expect you guys to write a huge history, and because I don't have a history really set up with a setting and timeline, please bear with me until I come up with something.
I'm hoping that makes sense; I'll be checking to make sure everything seems in order.
Now, because I feel it would be fun to have some diversity, I'm saying that there are species restrictions. Based on a first come, first serve basis, I'll save 2 spots for each race that will be reserved, with the exception of humans, which will have 4 spots. I expect you to sign up with your name and species; obviously by the order and time of post, I'll know who gets what. Here's the fun part:
Like Werewolf, place your name and race in the number of your choosing below [add more numbers if we actually manage to fill it up]:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
11.
12.
13.
14.
15.
You'll see what this is for, later! ;3
Attributes: While this includes the armor proficiency, weapon proficiency and such, you will also have to fill out 'stats':
Aim [Good for ranged weapons]
Cunning [good with tech, tech based weapons/healing]
Endurance [This is health - 1 point is the equivalent of 25 HP]
Presence [How effective you are in conversation - higher it is, higher chance NPC becomes persuaded]
Strength [brute force and damage, great for melee based attacks]
Willpower [what Biotics and Force users thrive on, each point is indicative of how much force you have - 25 WP = 1 point, like HP]
You have a total of 40 points to distribute.
Depending on your class/specialization/race will determine your armor - light, medium or heavy. Light, you'll be able to move around quicker but are susceptible to more damage [+4 points will be added to the one die amount; +8 with two dice]; Medium, you are even - can't move as quickly in light armor but you're better protected [+3 points with one die; +6 with two dice]; Heavy, you're well protected but won't be able to move around easily [+2 with one die; +4 with two dice].
You are bound to take damage, which will be determined normally through the roll of one die. Those are normally for blasters and ranged weapons; grenades/explosives will use two dice, melee likely the same as well and attacks from big baddies and bosses. While I don't expect this to get too in depth, I think this addition would make it more entertaining; would also keep you guys on your toes and make sure that you make a good decision and action! Hope this doesn't quite confuse anyone! And, if there are questions, feel free to PM me! I could have left something out so it would help add whatever fillers to make this good.
Below is the code box for the template:
Template:
Universal Databanks
Name: [The name of your character. Please make it somewhat relate-able to your race.]
Species: [What species is your character? Human, Asari, Krogan? Miraluka, Wookie, Twi'lek? Many more!]
Gender: [Male or Female? If you might play as a droid, the voice would indicate the built gender.]
Age: [How old are they? Make them preferably young depending on the race, please!]
Association: [What organizations are they associated with? Republic? Cerberus? Nothing and just hired for the cause? Mercenary work?]
Alignment: [Evil, good, neutral? Lawful, chaotic, true? Depending on the storyline, they may be affiliated automatically with a good organization, but can still rock an evil persona - just how they might handle situations.]
Class: [Is your character a Smuggler? Trooper? Infiltrator, Sniper?]
Specialization: [What specialization of their class are they? Commando? Scoundrel?]
Physical Appearance: [What do they look like? Skin-color, hair-color, eye-color? Tattoos or markings? Shape and Build? Height and Weight? Armor design?]
Personality: [What are they like?]

Attributes: [What weapon are they most proficient in or have proficiency with? What techniques/skills do they posses? Armor proficiency? Tech, Biotic, Medical? The Force?] {I'm still trying to figure out what techs/skills/powers people should have, but when I do I'll get back to you guys on how much they can have. Thanks!}
