!!!!!IMPORTANT INFO!!!! Should you even be interested in joining please read!
(Caught your attention eh?)
So this is pretty important; I've found and done some editting on some units so that we now have a new collection, but otherwise I'm going to start the final collection of information for the RP. I won't have it be real formal, just make out a small profile and put it in a spoiler at the bottom for people to check in, no PM's to me for clearance, but no one gets a mobile suit to start off and no one gets that 'secret copy of the strike freedom and was entrusted to ____ by kira!' story, nor editing any of the canon events to fit your character. All events (anime and manga spin-offs) are considered canon and can not be edited by me or anyone else (Also, why would you? It's there for reference...). As I see it we'll have around 8-10 members, but we'll be having only around 4 Gundams, so don't get greedy. Your characters rank will play an important role in the rp, but the way I am setting the story, there won't be many civilian characters that become soldiers like the heliopolis event, it is a military celebration so you will either be an Orb, Zaft, or OMNI military personel, or closely related to an officer of Orb (Orb will get the mobile suits, omni and zaft won't). I won't really rage against anyone that plays as a canon character should they be able to play the character. I'll also consult everyone in the rp for issues, I won't be a dictator seeing as I'm a lower guildie.
If anyone wants to start building a character simply have ready; A name, a rank, a simply idea of backstory or personality (doesn't need to be written, just be ready to start with), and either a simple description or picture. For a list of Orb Union ranks, look below. The highest rank however will be Lieutenant Commander, simply for the RP story purpose. Anyone wanting to be a pilot should be around/below Petty Officer.
could you give examples on the charater build out? Creation model.
Example of Kira during the second half of SEED
Name: Kira Yamato Rank: Ensign Background: (Optional, but suggested) Originally an Orb citizen, a series of events led him to being an OMNI pilot of the GAT-x105 Strike until he and the crew of the Archangel defected to Orb. He now pilots the ZGMF-X10A Freedom. Personality: (Optional, but helpful) He is very kind and protective of his friends. He is calm and wants to end the war Appearance; (Since it will be in a spoiler, you can link the photo) [img]http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/gundam/images/7/73/3a._Kira_Yamato.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100416164804[/img]
So were allowed to create our own charaters or use already existing charaters from seed/destiny?
You can create your own which I do suggest, but if you feel you can effectively act as an existing character, I say have at it.
Can you make a new post so we can post our characters there?

Can you make a new post so we can post our characters there?
if we get too many people I will, but for now just wait until we start and put the profiles on the bottom of your posts in a
Name: Lacus Clyne Rank: Chairwomen of the PLANT Supreme Council/ Leader of ZAFT
Background: Lacus Clyne is the daughter of the late PLANT Supreme Council Chairman Siegel Clyne. She is a Coordinator whose career as an idol singer has brought her enormous popularity in the PLANTs. After the death of Chairman Durandal, Lacus Clyne is invited back to the PLANTs to serve as a mediator between the PLANTs and the other nations. At the end of Gundam SEED Destiny "Final Plus", she is shown walking towards the PLANT Supreme Council. Lacus Clyne becomes Chairwoman of the PLANT Supreme Council.
Personality: Lacus Clyne, in her first few appearances, originally appears to be naive and a bit of an airhead, but it is only due to her idealistic and pacifistic nature. Beneath the surface as a pop star and a PLANT idol, she is actually a quite deep and philosophical person, as she demonstrates when she delivers speeches throughout the series - mainly about the widening rift between Naturals and Coordinators, the ironies of calling for peace yet doing so with weapons in hand, and the real causes of war as being within the human heart itself. As the leader of the Clyne Faction (and later the Three Ships Alliance and Terminal), Lacus is very charismatic, strong-willed, and determined to see their fight for peace through to the end. Like her father, Siegel Clyne, Lacus wishes to see a world where Naturals and Coordinators would willingly work together and coexist in harmony, disregarding the notion that Coordinators are an evolved species. Being a pacifist, Lacus holds a strong dislike for war, expressing that they are simply started and repeated through a neverending cycle of attack and retaliation.
I've named it after Uzumi Nara Athha of Orb. I liked his short, but important time in the anime ^_^

Yes, while I did the code so people could copy-pasta as a layout, that's a good example of a profile. You don't need to go so in-depth of the profile however, so if you feel like you have enough with a couple of sentences it should be fine.

I've added the basic story, factions and new mobile suits to the thread (I'll add the gundams over the weekend if not by the end of friday. I had some fun designating the purpose of each, so I hope people like the choices.)
I'll also add some detail onto each unit later on for those that wonder which each is, design purpose, and so forth. Feel free to ask questions now!

Thank librarian works for creating havoc we could take advantage of xd I do feel the new faction names are a bit weak though...
Background:Born on July 26, 56 (C.E.), Lunamaria quickly rose to Elite Status during her time at the academy.She attended the ZAFT military academy with her sister Meyrin, Shinn, and Rey Za Burrel. She later becomes Commander & later attends the Celebration of the New Orb Warship.
Personality:As a red ace, Lunamaria is already a strong pilot, with her skills focusing on long ranged combat, but she does have talent in close ranged combat. Strangely, Lunamaria's skill with a gun outside a mobile suit is drastically different, as she is unable to make an accurate shot. This is due to her habit of twitching her wrist while pulling the trigger. However, after learning of this habit, her skills have improved. Other than that, she can fly a helicopter and is an excellent spy, and is also quite good at intelligence gathering.
Appearance:

It's fine, I'll just remind to put it under a spoilercover once the rp begins. I'm curious where you'll go as lunamarie

How would you add the spoiler cover?

[spoiler][/spoiler]
So it'd end up looking like this:
Name:Lunamaria Hawke
Rank:Commander

So now we have the ship as well as the new Gundam units available for your viewing pleasure! Also, I think it would be wise to state your character as Natural or Coordinator seeing as Orb takes in both types of people.
