I am hesitant to do this because of how busy I am and a number of personal problems I am facing but here it goes. This is a new spin off series that I've been working on: Stargate Millennium. I have a trailer for it on youtube. You can find the links for both the trailer and my spin off in my signature at the bottom. One more thing about the trailer: I was very picky about how I made it. If you see or hear it happen in the trailer, it'll happen in the series eventually.
Premise: Tens of thousands of years ago, during the early days of their alliance, the Alliance of Four Great Races chose to explore the universe together. To that end, they build a massive city both as a monument to their new found alliance and to act as a capital for all four races: The Millennium. When the Alliance was dissolved, they chose to abandon the city and leave it for when they either chose to return or for a worth successor.
Modern day: the SGC assembles the largest expeditionary force in history and send it to the Millennium. The city is located in the galaxy of Caldwell 70 AKA NGC 300. Because of its distance, the expedition has to first be sent to Atlantis to use all three of their newly acquired ZPM's to reach the Millennium and establish a new colony.
(Note: I wanted all four races for the Millennium for a number of reasons but the primary one is I AM SICK OF ANCIENTS!!! After they discovered Atlantis, it seems like everything is Ancient. It's an Ancient outpost or experiment, or let's go find this new place built by the Ancients. I have recently begun reading other fan spin offs and I'm still HAUNTED by the Ancients. Another reason is to explore the lore of the other races. We don't know much about the Furlings and Nox yet. They helped colonize this galaxy and we get to learn more about them. If this series does well, I intend on even going into the history of the A4GR.)
The Ror'char: the colony/expedition will meet a number of new civilizations, some friendly and some hostile. The most prominent of them is the Ror'char. The Ror'char is not a race but a civilization of several races from all across the galaxy. They are often called peacekeepers and guardians of the galaxy. In a perverse way, that is true. Their goal is galaxy-wide peace and prosperity. However, they believe that the only way to achieve this is by absolute control. They believe chaos, crime, and cruelty stem from freedom and the only way to prevent these is to quash a societies' freedoms, including freedom of belief. A person must be told what to believe and those who think otherwise must be dealt with by whatever means necessary. Free societies must be 'liberated' and corrupted governments must be overthrown. They feel that if a civilization has grown too large and has not properly dealt with crime and poverty then the Ror'char must step in and help or risk having it spread to the rest of the galaxy.
However, disagreements in the Ror'char leadership has created a civil war between different Ror'char factions. Some factions have become corrupted by power-hungry leaders while others still pursue the goal of galaxy-wide peace by whatever means necessary. All the factions are also in an arms race, studying Alliance technology left behind to upgrade their weapons and ships.
(Note: I consider the Ror'char less an enemy and more a neutral faction that simply has an interest that conflicts with the Millennium Expedition/Colony. The Ror'char and Expedition will even occasionally work together if they see a gain to it. There will be an enemy faction later on but it probably won't be what you expect.)
Flora and Fauna: the animals and plants of the Caldwell 70 have also posed a problem. The expedition will have to deal with, on numerous occasions, the alien animals. These range from the vormians, furbie-looking rats that reproduce asexually and can go from one to hundreds in mere days, to the krenshaw, a massive lobster-like creature that's even bigger than a puddle jumper that view humans as a perfect sized meal.
I will post more later including characters and story outlines.

"The moment a person is born into a Ror'char society, his future is guaranteed. He is guaranteed an education, a job, a life. He will grow up never knowing the threat of losing everything he holds dear. He will grow up never knowing what it is like to lose a loved one at the hands of a criminal."
