| SFM Oracle | Impressive. An emotional Vulcan. Now that's something you don't see (read) every day. I always hoped to once find an entry into Star Trek PBEM or forum-RPG, yet never managed to get clear instructions.... |

![]() You get this very often - especially from newbies, who simply want to play something "very special". Honestly, I don't think it's a challenge to play a Vulcan who shows his emotions because it's pretty much like playing a Human. This only becomes interesting, if the character lives in a society that is dominated by Vulcan habits and rules of conduct. As I understand it, Ahkileez' character is member of Starfleet, an organisation that - like it or not - has Humans as their driving force and that has human values as their standards. Playing a Vulcan that tries to reach a state of true emotionesless might prove much more challenging (and rewarding) in such an environment. Of course, this is not intended offense to you, Ahkileez. Being a Game Master myself, I had my share of Vulcan charactes with emotions... and I have to admit, they were usually played pretty poorly by their players. However, I have to admit that this concept may work, if the character is played by an expierenced gamer who has the right feeling for his character. Now, back to topic: Great work! Less talk, more images. | |

| Hehe, I totally understand, Tox. I've seen no shortage of them in the RPG orgs I've played in either. And your assessment is correct: Generally they're played by newbie players as humans with poiny ears. I can say this with authority since I was a newbie (first online RPG) when I created him and that's exactly how I played him. But I quickly learned that there needed to be more than that to him. And I made sure that it has ramifications on his life for him to be how he is. If it helps, I have played other 'pure' Vulcans. Hehe. On the image front... I'm kinda working on something. |

| Oh, don't worry Aresius. I knew what you were trying to say. I know how common it is. In the Trek RPG world, we are replete with human-like vulcans, Betazoids and mixed-Betas and of course, Klingons. Comes with the territory |

| SFM Oracle | Hehe, well, Klingons are liked like nothing. Their culture is just too sweet. The stellar Samurai-Viking is just a nice image and expect the "stellar", it allso counts for me. Well, trying to imitate a "real" Yulcan would be a very nice challenge... |

| Sorry to drop in unannounced.. ![]() Nice work.. I played around with the Rosyth Shipyard concept for a while before real life intruded. I like the dolphin uniform idea. Until a holiday a couple opf years ago I didn't realise dolphins could get sunburn. They'd need protection as much as us.. |
