We could do something similar like they did in Star Trek TV show. Choose a ship and a crew. Players that decide to rp would be bridge officers on that ship. Idea is to create a story by letting our imagination do its thing. When someone types something into chat that becomes part of “reality” in that situation so others adapt to it. This way WE create a story that could lead us to exploration, mystery solving or discovery of hidden knowledge – no boundaries.
First have to decide which faction ship would be in the center of the story. We would need to develop our toon with background story and any other characteristics (good or bad) that would make it easier for us to adopt to created story. We should define the mission and name of the ship where we perform our duty. Mission could bring us to other planets,etc., we would discuss that later.
There is project Starbase 381 that could be used as part of stories we create.
Here is another guest blog about role-playing.
Here are some RP guides.

Also, here too, you may want to scroll down as first part is not relevant.Anyone want to be a part of this 44th RP project?
It’s a really cool idea and there are some good resources and a community out there to draw assistance from.
A majority of players would probably be more interested in a Starfleet oriented rp; Let’s face it there are more Federation players than KDF and the most casual observer of Star Trek is probably better versed in Starfleet and more comfortable within that framework.
I agree, best start would be to go with Starfleet as it is the most active and more familiar to everyone.
What to do? Maybe someone from fleet shows up with interest in participating. I’ll be checking some rp fleets in order to see if they could help us somehow or to better understand how this works.
An off-shoot of RP is vanilla PvP. Or srory missions with vanilla gear. We could run inter-fleet matches and/or http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1223171. They have pretty good established rules so no need to re-invent the wheel.
There’s a new thread about an inter-fleet initiative to challenge the upcoming hardcore content. It may be unrelated to roleplaying but being more involved with these other fleets may help out looking for rp oriented players.
It could be a good premise as well with an adhoc task force/battle group being formed from a collection of fleets. Pretty skeleton story seed but it wasn’t a minute of thought.
