Erlos Wiki

About the Concept
Erlos is a concept that blends elements from the Halo and Mass Effect universes into one, large multiverse. It takes place on a planet which recently became designated as the galaxy's center for interspecies affairs. With powerful species grasping as much political power as they can, the government finds themselves in an era where inter-species crime is becoming a new norm. With having to juggle diplomatic functions on top of keeping their own people in line, it seems only a matter of time before the entire system comes crashing down.

And you get to play a role in this. With your own character, you can influence where Erlos goes! Help keep the peace by joining the police force, argue for unity by running for office, or work to destroy and rebuild as the leader of your own criminal organization! The possibilities are endless as the story is for you, by you.
