I don't know anything about Quake3 (chiefly because I don't have it :P), but I feel compelled to help.
I KNOW! I can be one of those concept guys. I'll come up with a storyline, planets, and other stuff relating to the job.
PM me for any help. As i'm writing this, i've got some ideas simmering in my grok pot.
