Hello everyone! I'm going to go on and post an application for the pilot. But before we apply, a few notes:

This is a unique roster with only 4 permanent, series-long roles. This SRP follows a small group of agents traveling to various locations, so those who are not in those four slots will be joining me in portraying the "guest stars" for that week. For example, if we had an episode set on Andoria, there would be the four Squad members, while myself and our designated guest stars would play the Andorians themselves.

Given the concept, this SRP will be using a lot of maps, so Ultimate Edition is EXTREMELY recommend. However, I will still be providing a Google Drive folder with all the files you'll need.

Please keep in mind for the Squad roles, that if you have a "main" character you normally use and have grown attached to, you may want to consider using a different character. The Squad members are agents of Section 31, and will be required to carry out actions according to that role.

Please apply with the following format:
Name:
Model:
3 Most Desired Positions:
Can you make the timeslot:  (15:30 Eastern Standard Time, Saturday)
Notes/Backstory:

Squad Roster
Squad Field Commander: Robert Quinn - Oviedo - Commander (Jack Telford)
Commando: Benjamin Patterson - Kray - Marine Captain (Shoot)
Technician: Voreena Saran - Tshanik - Lieutenant (Odysseus_AE)
Special Operations Agent: Mitchell Blake - Captain - Lieutenant Jr. Grade (Scott Archer)

"Guest Star" Roster[/size]
Section 31 Cadet: Sasha Cooper - Telsia - Ensign (Dendo Hellen)
Frigate Captain: Captain Taldo - Barclay - Captain (StringTheorist)
Frigate Security Chief: Giles Grinaud - Desperado - Lieutenant (Lipton)
Starfleet Medical Rep: Rebecca Luongo - Crusher - Captain (CoS Tuvok)


PLEASE NOTE: Even though all the spots are filled, you are free to apply for a regularly occurring Guest Star role without any desired positions, and I will add more roles upon demand. Furthermore, this structure also allows you to guest star in a single episode without signing on to the entire series. So just because the roster looks full, it can still be extended. Supply and Demand. If you demand it, I'll supply it.

[Scott Archer]

Name: Mitchell Blake
Model: Captain
3 Most Desired Positions: Special Operations Agent, technician, section 31 cadet
Can you make the timeslot: Most weeks
Notes/Backstory:
Blake is based off a previous section 31 character I've played before, and he ends up causing an accidental civil war in the Federation.
He is ruthless, but unassuming and he is usually three steps ahead of everyone else.

[Jack Telford]

Name: Robert Quinn
Model: Oviedo
1 Most Desired Position:  Squad Field Commander[/font][/size]
Can you make the timeslot: Think so
Notes/Backstory:TBA(Maybe)

Main character:
Name: Benjamin Patterson
Model: Kray
1 Most Desired Position: Commando
Can you make the timeslot: Yup
Notes/Backstory: Not yet

Roster has been updated and Frigate Security Chief has been re-opened.


Just as a reminder, applying for one of the single episode guest stars does not mean you will only be in the series for one episode. You will be part of the permanent roster of "Guest Stars", if that makes any sense.

Well folks, we're over halfway there! To celebrate a rapidly filling roster, here's a small preview:


Commodore Stanton paced the floor of his office. Shadow Squad was late. This was absolutely no way to start a career in special intelligence! Perhaps he had made a mistake in commissioning a new team. Sitting at his desk, the Commodore dusted off a small trophy box with a glass front. Several relics from his past lay in the box.


  His old Captain's pips, a Klingon dagger from his operations aiding the House of Duras, a Cardassian Militia badge, and his Christopher Pike Medal of Valor among them. A few others also held special places in his heart, such as a small handful of Borg implants, a ketrecel white tube, a microscope slide of the morphogenic virus, and the hand phaser he had used to get rid of so many obstacles to Federation progress and domination. But his favorite prize sat in the center.


  A marine's rank pips, as well as a rusted metal name tag, both attached to torn pieces of uniform. Looking at these two small tokens made Edwin smile. A little reminder to him of what happened when an idealist stood in Section 31's way. That particular marine had no more use for his name tag or rank.


Where did these prizes come from? Is that trophy case a record of Stanton's career in espionage, or just the highlights? What stories could he tell of his many dangerous missions? These questions and more, answered in Shadow Squadron!

  Hey everyone! First off, we're only two short of a full roster, so thank you so much to everyone who has signed up so far! We can definitely make this work with just six though, and I'm very happy with how everything is turning out so far. So, question for everyone: Would a pilot date of the 22nd or the 15th work best? I've attached a voting pod above. If you can't make it to either, please post below!

[StringTheorist]

If there are no objections, I think we will tentatively aim for the 22nd! If this date doesn't work for you, please let me know!

[Scott Archer]

Whilst we'll be discussing this with the other SRP Pilot runners as well, either works for me!

Sounds great, and this is just so I know which dates to ask for. An opinion poll of sorts. 

[StringTheorist]

The decided date for the pilot is Saturday, October 22nd, 15:30 EST. Any objections or absences, please post below.
