And mine is a human with a paracortex in his head?

KNight, I'll try to work out a history and stuff in the next day or so, but a fair warning: Going on a week vacation to visit my girlfriend on friday, so I'll be fairly inactive during that span.

You fiquired I'd get the heads up indirectly lol

Have a good vacation if I don't talk at you again these next couple days.

There are non-humanoid races, but the vast majority ARE humanoid in the Star Trek universe.



Starfleet Academy is typically a 4 year school. And I don't know that a timeline is actually all that popular, it was just easier for me. And then I started a trend!

And congrats to me on post 14,000!

Sorry, HM, but my three games are currently full.

- Temple of Elemental Evil ALPHA
- Temple of Elemental Evil OMEGA
- Ravenloft

If a spot comes open or I start a new game I'll let you know.

Keep in mind, most Academy applicants studied all their stuff before even applying, as you have to be able to ace the application tests in order to get in. Physical, academic and psychological.

Well, that's after you have finished all the normal schooling and such and you graduate as an ensign. Humans usually seem to enter the Academy at 19 or 20 and graduate 4 years later as Rhun said. Then comes either Post Graduate specialization (like medical academy) which lasts another few years, or lower end position on starship duty. So getting promoted even to Jr.Lt. usually takes closer to 10 years from starting at the Academy.

You running ToEE regular or the RttToEE?/

I would love to play in a RttToEE I ran it way back in 02 and never got to finish it.

Or you can just ship out with the marines, like my PC did!

The OLD ToEE. Both games have been going for over three years here.

I haven't yet decided which was the case with Raphael, but graduating from medical academy at 25 means that he either went through both academies in 5 years, or got in to the academy at extremely young age . I guess a little bit of both. Made it in 6 and went to the academy at 19...

It is a general guideline. Nog, for example, entered the academy in 2371, but is back on DS9 in 2374. While still technically a cadet at this time (on cadet field training), he is done with the actual academy. He and earns a field promotion to ensign shortly thereafter.
