To be fare she could probably pick on Blisk the most since he’s so augmented he has almost no organic parts of his body.

I had no idea this many people would go cyborg but in hindsight it makes sense.
Transhumanism is going to become a theme eh?

Probably. I mean, we hunt down criminals who use them, so...
I'm wondering if a genemodded character will appear. That'd be an interesting idea to toy with...

I mean, if you count the ability to self-induce adaptations under the same umbrella...
Though on the broader subject of transhumanism, we do at the moment seem to have a fairly interesting crew to explore that theme. On one end, we have Aya as the rep of a species that takes a hard no towards it, we progress through Lady and Yixx and Ella and Vi as biological and synthetic equivalents of each other to ask the question of what the difference is between them, then Blisk brings the matter of the Ship of Theseus, before we make a stop at Chuck who acts as an outsider from a different direction from Aya, a direction that is more or less already transhuman, and because of that divorced from 'humanity'.
Of course, this is all presuming we decide to pontificate on this between goofy space adventures.
Oh my god... the Borg... are called that because they are cyBORGs! Oh god... I just put that together. Decades as a Star Trek fan, and I just now put that together! Oh, I feel so stupid! How did I miss that?! I feel like the dumbest guy alive! X(

Just posted my new race of Insects! The Laepaede!
I spent so much time on this and I'm honestly super proud of it, still though, tell me your thoughts you guys.

You already know I love it. Seriously, he worked super hard on this. More buggos!
Unfortunately, Frost's bio got split between two pages, so make sure you see the second half on page 2.

They're definitely interesting, and they're definitely something of yours, Frost. I'm getting hints of Quarian in there, what with the 'released an AI, can't go back to their homeworld, live on ships, get blamed for everything' thing. Looking forward to seeing who our rep from them will be, if there is one, and how the Laepaede gel with the plot.

When a bunch of people are coming back that you've been dying to RP with but you don't like full sci fi stories...
Unpopular opinions, am I right?

Just give it a try. Maybe you'll like it.
Agreed.

I felt the same thing, but you can make a character you like even if the setting is something you don't like. I was thinking the same thing before I made my character. It might change your mind. :3

I look forward to anything you come up with if you decide to join in, and remember - if I can play a sentient colony of worms, you sure as hell can play what you want.
