This post introduces the first of the cards concepts you will get to choose from for the Will of the Collective II process. Feel free to use this thread to discuss the pros and cons of this concept (and only this concept), pitch ideas, and so forth. Make sure to keep an open mind, and look at each concept in turn - give them all a fair shake!

As I mentioned in the original post for this process, the card concept is just a single, simple, statement of what the card should do. No reference to story, specific mechanics, or anything along those lines. Not even a reference to card type.

The fifth concept we present to you comes from Chief Programmer, forum moderator, and assistant designer on Favor the Bold and the upcoming Project Valkyrie, Chris Lobban:

Concept #5:
A tribute card in honor of Majel Barett Roddenberry
Her influence touched every aspect of Trek from the first day until the sad day of her passing. This card could be anything, from an event representing the ship's computer, to any of the characters she played, to whatever else your imaginations can invent.

A ship's computer card would be nice. This might not be creative enough, but here goes:

Event
Ship's Computer (Cost 4)
Plays on your ship. When your personnel aboard this ship is attempting a mission, you may make him or her cunning +2 and gain a skill of your choice until the end of this turn. You may do this only once each turn.

Definitely. I'd like to see something done with the Computer, as I'm not sure how different you could make a third Lwaxana (although, if you did wander down that path, creating a card from the DS9 episode "The Forsaken" might be good).

I also like the idea of a number one card.

Maybe we could have the option of making a pike at the same time?
That way they could have complimentary abilites.

Number One = Great Idea.

"The Cage"-Themed Subset (think Dissident Vulcans in RtS) including "Number One" = Even Greater Idea.

The real question would be what her name would be. A comic series gave her the name Eunice Robbins. Some of the various books suggested Morgan Primus or someone with the last name Lefler. Or just Number One as DC Fontana suggested that being her actual name in one of her books.

Good question. We could always have a name with a spin on "one" kind of like "Primus" as listed above, or use pieces of her real name, thus filling in the blanks like Decipher did for Logan Black and Stewart Rivers.

I do like the idea of Number One. After all, Number One was the first lady in trek. For the name, I'd like to stick with Number One, but I wouldn't be opposed to coming up with a realistic name.

If we decide not to use Number One, I think the computer voice is our second best option. Other options include Christine Chapel and Lwaxana Troi, but I don't think either of those options really seem like "First Lady of Trek" characters.

You could have something like whatever name she eventually has with Number One being underneath, like Jean-Luc Picard, Explorer. That way, we can get both in there.

I would rather see:

Title: Number One
Sub-Title: First Officer

or better yet...

Sub-Title: "Voice of the Great Bird..."
