Assume you are yourself in the society. (i.e. if you are an engineer here, you will be an engineer there)

Or alternatively, make me career military in Earthforce with my own Omega class Destroyer, that would be cool.

[B]I believe he means which race you would want to be a part of, in which case I would say I would want to be on Earth. [/B][/QUOTE]
Agreed. Of all the major planets in the B5 universe, Earth gets off [b]light[/b];
Narn: Bombarded from space with Mass-Drivers
Centauri Prime; Bombarded from space by Narn/Drazi fleet
Minbar: Several major cities heavily damaged through fighting during the civil war.
Z'Ha'Dum: Capital city nuked by Sheridan, blown up later on.
I rest my case.

Morden
[B]Id be Centauri only cause I like the hair. Narns nah they have pouches thats not good. Minbari, NO ALCHOL cant have that. Drazi might be fun? Can't say id want to be any of the others. [/B][/QUOTE]
Well, they are a "[i]proud[/i] race, a [b]strong[/b] race..." ;)
But you're forgetting that they have a tendancy to hide stuff in the certain "pouch" on their body. Ahem. :rolleyes:

Are you saying that The Cabl3 Guy would prefer to by a [i]female[/i] Drazi? ;)
Hey, DO female Drazi actually exist? :confused:

That's the Pak’ma’ra. I’ve heard the Drazi are genderless, but I don’t think so. The Drazi ambassador certainly seemed rather insulted by Londo's accusations about his wife’s virtue in that Season 5 episode. Though how a Drazi and a Gaim would get it on, I have no idea. Perhaps they used similar, ah, devices as the human woman and the Pak’ma’ra in Eilerson’s ‘special’ video’s in Crusade. ;)
[B]I would would have no desire to be a Shadow though. To much like an insect for me...[/B][/QUOTE]
Its just their encounter suit, I believe.

Seriously? Bloody hell, what do the Shadows really look like, then? :eek: :shadow1:
I always thought that what you saw was what you got with them.

[B]The Vorlons wear the encounter suite. I never heard anything saying the Shadows did??? That is there natural form, remember the flash back to when the Icuarus landed we saw a Shadow then as well. Mantis like being... [/B][/QUOTE]
Yeah, I'd have to go with Imhotep here, I've never doubted that what we've seen in B5 was their true form. The Vorlons only wear encounter suits because they'd be recognised as various deities through their manipulation of different races over the millennia. (The shadows have no such cause to wear encounter suits.)

[B]Hmmm, I dont remember where I read it. Perhaps in 'the shadow within'. Ill have a read through it tomorrow, when I get home. [/B][/QUOTE]
Thanks Messiah, it'd be good to clear away any doubt either way.

Unlike the vorlons however, they appear able to become a physical being at will, and thus:
Its their form before they became formless energy beings. :)
my vote:
Shadow Ship/Vorlon ship. Preferably Shadow because I'd get to see ALOT of stuff blowing up!
[B]Id rather be a vorlon, or a vorlon ship because they seem to be much stronger all round. It took 2 centauri guards with pulse rifles to kill a shadow, whereas it took lots of guards to kill the vorlon. The vorlon ships are also tougher and harder to kill than the shadow ships. [/B][/QUOTE]
Yeah, but can Vorlon ships [i]carve[/i] Narn Heavy Cruisers in half? The battle at Gorash 7 in TLTS is unbeatable is displaying how awesome Shadows vessels can be in combat.

The technomage trilogy also points to the fact that shadows can leave their encounter type suits through those 14 points of lights you see.It goes into some detail on how they managed to kill Kosh.
