Looking for Stargate characters for this new RPG. Feel like giving it a try?


Name: Gwerinos Base

Rating: Adult, Anything Goes.

Description: Gwerinos Base is situated on a backwater planet with a primitive population. The mission of the base is twofold. Scientific observation of the primitives and the protection of the planet. It is strategically placed and several factions want bases on this planet. All advanced tech must be hidden from the populace who think the base is a place of magic, especially as the base is protected by a camouflage field and the Wizards who live there 'vanish' into their magic home. Near the base is the Stargate.

Positions Available: Every position is available bar the base Commander. Humans, aliens, elves, hobbits, vampires, werewolves, dwarves, wizards, tech support, scientists, just about anyone you can think of is needed. Original characters or characters based on the shows acceptable. No limit on the characters you can play. However posting is required every 24 hours (with exceptions via Moderators acceptance.)

Sim Info: Star Trek/Lord of the Rings/Torchwood based PBEM RPG Knowledge of only one of these is needed to play. Good if two, Great if three.

Operational Date: Waiting for crew.

A very special thing happened on this day, March 26, in 2005.

The very first TimeGate occurred that day! We were hoping to get 40 or 50 people.
We told each other, "If we only get 25, we'll be thrilled. This is something we've
wanted to do for along time and we're going to enjoy it no matter what." We were totally
blown away when *85 people* attended that very first one-day mini-con.

As you know, TimeGate has grown immensely since that day 6 years ago. Those
first few TimeGates were one-day affairs held in an Elk's Lodge. We had six
panels -- three Stargate ones and three Doctor Who ones. We showed videos,
we had gaming, we had special contests. We even had a few dealers at a
couple of them. But we had no guests at the first three TimeGates. And we
continued to grow. Pretty rapidly, in fact. Soon, we had to make the move
into a hotel and to a full weekend convention.

Since that time, our guests roster had really blossomed. We've had actors,
writers, script editors, and composers from both Doctor Who and Stargate.
We've also had authors, comic book illustrators, scientists, merchandisers,
film archivists, biographers, game designers and many more. And they've all
been wonderful!

And our audience has grown tremendously as well. We're expecting this year
to be our biggest attendance yet. A lot of that is due to the great guests
that we have booked, led by Sophie Aldred, Andrew Cartmel and Ben
Aaronovitch from Doctor Who (the Seventh Doctor era), and Mike Dopud from
Stargate Universe and the upcoming Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome as well
as David Read from Gateword and Diana Dru Botsford, writer of several Stargate novels.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us from the beginning. And for
those of you that we picked up along the way -- thank you too for coming on
board and for continuing the journey with us. We are going to do everything
we can to make this year the best TimeGate ever.

Thanks, everyone. See you in May at TIMEGATE!!!
