Premise:
This story will take place in 2210, 18 years after John Shepard destroyed the Reapers, ending the Reaper War, and was presumed dead. The Jon Grissom Academy has been rebuilt, and the academy is slowly regaining the numbers of students and teachers.
The academy is not mandatory, and so these students are here by choice - whether it's theirs or their parents'. This academy is also for the purpose of educating biotics and allowing them to integrate with society - not everyone in the academy is going to be a fighter. Maybe those who come from a military background, but not necessarily for those from human colonies, or perhaps even Earth.
This will revolve around the tensions that last even after the war, and will comment on what Shepard did - whether or not the Genophage was cured, whether the Rachni Queen was spared, who was left to die on Virmire, Whether Shepard was a hero or a badass, who Shepard romanced etc.
A/N
Okay guys, be imaginative with your characters - the main characters will be a group of students, but I can use a range of other characters - whether it's people of a similar age from outside the Academy, Alliance veterans, C-Sec officers - anyone.
Rules:
Put thought and detail into your character.
Must PM all applications to me like so 'Mass Effect Academy - [Name]'
I'm only picking a handful of characters to revolve around. I'm talking about 4 for POV characters, but about 8 for main characters.
No perfect characters - they must all have actual strengths and weaknesses.
Again, Detail is important - especially in the character's personality.
