-A Resident Evil type RP set in space with a couple of twists...
The Premise:
The intergalactic, multinational pharmecuticals conglomerate "Galactic Genetics Inc." has lost communications with a top secret research base located in an abandoned gas mine on a backwater moon, but before the comms went down a distress signal was sent out on all channels. The United Earth Federation, suspicious of GGI's activities and responding to the distress signal, sends a crack SpecOps team to investigate the abandoned gas mine...
-Okay, so that's a rough sketch of the plot, anyone interested in RPing will RP as a member of the SpecOps team. Each member will have a different specialization (IE Sniper, Demolitions, Heavy Weapons). I need five RPers, the other members of the team (5) will be NPCs controlled by everyone. I will be RPing as the 'experiments' your team will encounter- zombies.... and other good stuff. If you're interested post a brief character description and history, the tech level is somewhere between the Humans in Halo and the clones in Star Wars- feel free to make up weaponry. I'm looking for good RPers who know how to write, and are interested in a character-driven plot.
Thanks.

Deal, could I have a link pls?
I am interested, but unable to think of a character at the moment. I will post one as soon as possible.
I was actually thinking of doing something like this.
I'm interested.

Cool, if you could both pls post characters that be great. Jet packs and the like are allowed, along with low level laser/plasma weaponry... but I want this thing to have a realistic feel. Also, bear in mind- with the plot twists I have coming, mutants and zombies arent all you'll be facing...

Although, no one seems to want to do a resident evil story...

I'd be interested in this... for the specialization I'm assuming we have sniper, demo, heavy weapons, medic, and team leader (you put up three, I threw in two others that are needed/make sense for a spec op team) For history and the such I'm assuming the United Earth Federation is something you made up just for this RP and not your actual nation...
Name: Jeremiah Seyek
Profession: UEF special forces medical sergeant
Rank: Sergeant
Age:25
Height: 6'0
Weight: 196 pounds
Hair/Eyes: Brown hair, cut short in military style, blue eyes
Kit: Various medical equipment, 6.8mm SR-43 Carbine (customized), 10mm sidearm, various types of grenades, full body armour suit (medic issue, contains specialized systems for medical applications in addition to combat use)
History:
Born and raised on a fringe world colony Jeremiah's family, and hometown, survived only on handouts from the government that encouraged settlement on their wasteland of a world. The dependence on the goverment encouraged a sense of debt towards the govenment and extreme patriotism, and Jeremiah became endeared towards the local army troops that manned the world's front line defence bases.
The day Jeremiah hit eighteen, he headed straight to the local base and enlisted. His other interests had been in medicine, and he had considered becoming a doctor, deciding to serve in the army to fullfill that dream and use the money to pay for medical school. His dreams changed during the Sirius rebellion when he first saw action. Two of his section mates were rounded by rebel fighters, and while aiding them, his unit became suppressed by enemy heavy weapons. With the wounded stabilized, and cut off from the rest of his suppressed and soon to be overrun company Jeremiah moved off on his own, drawing away the rebel heavy weapons long enough for his company to escape.
Jeremiah was captured, and after three days of torture he was liberated by a special forces team. The team and Jeremiah were stuck in the rebel city but managed to escape after two days of running firefights with rebel forces. For his actions during the battle, and his actions fighting along side his special forces rescuers he was offered a new contract and a place as a special forces medical sergeant, which he graciously accepted.
Since then, his role in the UEF military has been classified top secret.

Basic Background Info:
I am willing to rp that the base was controlled by the Dark Eternals (name explains itself) and they used the base to create superior soldiers out of the gene polls on Earth. Basically, the Dark Eternals would have taken a number of specimens from the most evolved species on the planet in order to create soldiers those possessed a level of intellect that would allow them to handle simple weapons and be obedient to their Dark Eternal masters. What they would generally do the captured specimens was that they would alter their genetics and/or rapidly evolve them in closed spaces.
These experimentally specimens were later put into contained in storage tanks and use their genes to create clones that be put thru further genetic theory and evolution until they reached the perfect states and when they did the Eternals stored the perfect specimens in storage containers and took a large amount of their genetic material in order to create clone armies of them. With their experiments done at the base they left it and wiped out all files on the technologies used and where they had taken the genetic material, but they left all their creations in their storage tanks. Yet, they did release a number of their specimens back onto Earth where they became the sources of many of the monsters legends including the Yeti, Vampires, Centaur, Cremira, and a many different legends across the world.
Generally, the monsters will still vary hugely in appearance due to the sheer number of different experiments the Dark Eternals performed on them. Also, the Dark Eternals did leave the base operational and nearly all of their creations are either still in their storage tanks or have been released into the base. Yet, before the Dark Eternals did leave the information about how to operate the base and on the evolution of the monster in the form of information on their external and internal changes after each experiment, sadly they did not leave any of their weapons behind and information of the different specimens individual weaknesses.
How the Story Starts Out:
The base can discovered in any isolated, inaccessible by regular means, area and it can be discovered in an excavation or using any deep underground reading device then you can only access it by uncovering the teleportation device that links to the surface, find the remains of the tunnel that lead to the hangar area, or dig deep down and find an entrance into the structure. There you enter the building to find that the technology is far beyond anything that humanity has even dreamed of or hoped for, but all the instruction on designs, the materials that they were built by, and the only that they left was how to activate the facility and how to open the doors. As well, the people when the enter the compound they may find the remains of a few of the mutants that escaped there storage tanks, but the vast majority of the mutants are still waiting for the facility to be activated which allow the mutants to be released and the fun begins….
From there the mutants are released and begin the slow attack on the people inside the compound, but feel free to rp anything on you the humans before this.

As always, this is my character
Name: Chris (Always is my character, always will be to)
Specialty: Weapons Sergeant

Bio: Chris was a rifleman in the Wanderjarian Imperial Guard. Having served in numerous campaigns, he was a decorated veteran. Unfortunatley, he knocked out his commanding officer on an operation for ordering hundreds of men to their deaths for an objective which was unnecessary. He then served with numerous Mercenary organizations.....
