    The various events seem to be linked up correctly.

    Now, as far as crossovers go, I'll be honest : I've never been a fan of those, and i prefer to keep impermeable barriers between fictive universes ; but that's just me, I guess. Some players probably enjoy it.

    If i could, however, spare an advice : you mention the Heartless at some point, and you may want to change that name to something else. Indeed, it is against the Foundry's EULA to use names or characters from other existing franchises, and doing so would be enough for Cryptic to take down your mission.

    Alright. I changed Heartless to extradimensional. This mission is for Federation players btw. How can I create Nessie and other mythical creatures in the Foundry? Sapph will be a "humanoid" Loch Ness monster while her mate will be a werewolf.
    Your character will get a prompt to bow to Sapph and Jerome in the throne room.

    The Foundry costume editor should have decent visuals to come up with reptilian or wolfish humanoids, even though they will still be flat-faced and not so much bestial-looking in appearance.

    Also, the female aliengen's messed up in the Foundry. It won't let me select blue for skin color.

    To be honest, some crossovers work better than others. It's like putting trek into Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones, the two don't work together. Something like combining Trek and Aliens would work (that would be awesome)

      You'd be surprised, there's a fanfic out there that rewrites GoT as a space opera. (If you're interested, it's called Let the Galaxy Burn.)

      The mirror universe would be good for a Trek GoT, all the political intrigue and back stabbing would make it interesting to say the least and you don't need that much action really because too much would not help the story along.
      Back to the thread subject at hand, Pokemon, Trek and mythological creatures don't really work that well in a crossover (I'm not sold on the idea). I'm not being nasty but honest on the subject.

        Raven, I'm trying to find a good interior for the throne room in the Foundry.

          Well, I might have to ask Sutherland about this.

          All I can say is use your imagination, it's a throne room so it has to be stylish

            Yeah. The Foundry can be a bit limited when it comes to interiors? How can I program a way to make your character bow to my characters in the throne room?

              Your only option for that is to use one of the available animations. If it does not exist already in the Foundry, there's sadly no way to create one.

              As for a throne room interior, i'd suggest using the Great Hall of Qo'Nos map as a base.

              IIRC a "bow" animation does exist, though if it doesn't there's few "salute" animations you could use instead. As for building a throne room it's actually not that hard if you don't go overboard, a simple retangular room with a chair at one end is a good way to start, then add collums and banners until you get the basic look you desire.

                I also want to recreate the Discovery MU uniforms for Sapph and Jerome since they fit the royal theme. I think the STO wiki has a guide on creating MU costumes.

                They don't appear to have DSC yet, you'll have to work on that one yourself.

                Kit parts on the arms and chest painted gold with the Discovery uniform in black, try that.

                    Alright. Here's a dialogue "teaser"
                    Sapphire: Player, you have to hear me out on this. I only left the Federation to keep a vow to my daughter. Section 31 are cowards who are willing to go after a monarch's kid to "protect" the Federation. They also tried to kill my nephew Orion a few days ago. You would do the same if you were in my position.
                    Jerome: Our vow to Amy supersedes the Starfleet vow. My mate and I will do anything to protect our flesh and blood.
                    Player: There is a reason why we don't like dealing with Section 31 Your Majesties.
