Luna Primum (Political/Character RP) - OOC

[Republic of the Cristo]

There might be some conflict of interests between Gaia Fortuna and the Sanctus Sol Imperium, don't know just a feeling. I mean secular progressives always get along with feudalistic traditionalists (note the sarcasm).

Yeah there probably will, but it will be interesting. Also, I don't see how you can establish a Holy Roman Empire...when we're nowhere near Rome and when many people have probably read enough history to know that the HRE was a disaster.

... The Holy Roman Empire was in Germany....

Also, for the first couple of centauries it did quite well. But aside from the point it is completely bananas.

At one point it included Rome and parts of Italy - and required the support of the Pope (I believe the term I'm thinking of consecration). That would be pretty hard to do from Lunar Colony. And sure, the first 200 years were alright, but then it fell apart, as all things do at that time

Hmm, interesting, interesting. Hold me a spot for a character and faction. I'm thinking futurist progressives with manifest destiny and technocracy vibes.

Name: Sigmund Kalbfleisch
Gender: Male
Age: 30
Backstory/Biography: Born and raised in Hamburg, Germany in 1995, young Sigmund was always exceptionally bright - and privileged. His father was an influential German SDP politician, first in the Hamburg Parliament then in the German Bundestag. From his father, he earned his skill and passion as an up and coming politician, who perhaps may have had a promising career ahead of him had he not chosen to use his exceptional mind to focus on biology and medicine. He quickly went through higher education and became a doctor when he was 22 years old and a certified surgeon at 27, a remarkable feat by any standards. When the Lunar Colony mission was announced, his father pulled strings to get young Sigmund into that colony - after all, with Germany having one of the strongest economies at that point and being a benefactor of the mission, it was only fitting that a German from a prominent political family be chosen to perform a great duty for Earth. The prodigious Sigmund humbly accepted the honor that was bestowed upon him, with the promise to his father that he would bring honor to their family and that he would ensure that Lunar Colony and Earth would remain in a close embrace (Sorry if this paragraph is a bit shoddy, its been a while since I last posted in NS).
Qualifications: Sigmund Kalbfleisch is a doctor and surgeon, not to mention well-connected to Earth, something that could come in handy should the colony become desperate for supplies and aid.
Appearance: Sigmund Kalbfleisch
Faction: Gaia Fortuna
Role: Doctor/Surgeon, Member of the Lunar Council

Official Name: Gaia Fortuna
Common Name: N/A
Founder: Sigmund Kalbfleisch
Current Leader: Sigmund Kalbfleisch
Description: The Gaia Fortuna faction was founded upon the settlement of the Lunar Colony by Sigmund Kalbfleisch and other colonists who believed that the Colony should be just that, a colony of Earth. These "Earth loyalists," as they have been sometimes referred to, tend to be progressive and secular - despite personal religious beliefs. Their main goal is to ensure that Earth and the Colony keep close ties through trade and communication.

Though I trust you're a good RPer, any examples you could provide?

[Laboratory Mouse]

Hm. This is a pretty original idea. Freeform faction-character hybrid RP with a bit of room in the science department. How is it that I'm missing the few good RPs on the forum? Damn. I am sleeping HEAVY for real bruh.

Hmm, interesting, interesting. Hold me a spot for a character and faction. I'm thinking futurist progressives with manifest destiny and technocracy vibes.

Oh. G is playing! Your boy Mouz was thinkin' extreme separatist, libertarian, mystic philosophical techrats with some Side 3 thrown in because FEDERATION SCUM! Exchange "manifest destiny" for "a step in humanity's evolution"/"space is for US!", however.

[Neo-Chicago]

By the way, if I get enough factions, I'm going to up the number from fifty to one hundred. I'll allow people to change their political party amounts, as long as they don't double them, because that would get us nowhere.

Name: Vladmir Illyich Yashnev
Gender: Male
Age: 31
Backstory/Biography: Born 1994, Cherskiy, Russia. Educated Interlink Correspondence courses, Universities Moscow and Saint Petersburg. Joined Kolymar Defense Force out of college, tested very high in engineering aptitude, sent to University of Moscow on site for Master's in engineering. Later served as Combat Engineer along the Bering Strait, developed specialized snowbound powered armor for skirmishers, coupled with profound ability to land heavy machinery in any imaginable conditions. Quickly rose to Chief Engineer, Kolymar defense initiative. When skirmishing ended was brought back to Moscow to a high-ranking R & D position in the Russian Republic Ministry of Defense. Used a trip to a conference in Germany to transfer to the United Nations team responsible for developing planetside technology, U.N. Luna Primum Mission. Recommended unconditionally by high-ranking U.N. official for position of Chief Science Officer on base; selection proceedings security locked until five years after launch.
Qualifications: Cognitive ability exceedingly high; genius level. Worldview driven almost exclusively through logic. Poor ethical judgment and inability to weigh in emotional factors masked by trained social functionality; moderate deficiency in social functioning when under stress. Puts strong reliance on tools and his ability to use and adapt them; this, over human values, represents ultimate good. Ability to work as part of a team towards definable goals invaluable to mission, but poorly defined sense of ethics and tendency toward self- aggrandizement must be closely monitored by any colleagues.
Appearance: Vladimir stands about six foot two in height, not a vast man, but in good enough shape. His hair streaked with white by an unnaturally early aging process brought about by the rigorous pace he puts himself through, Yashnev was originally dark-haired, like many of Slavic descent. His cheekbones are high and betray patrician roots, but his face is split by laugh lines from frequent mirth. Given to wearing a functional greatcoat and trousers.
Faction: The Sons of the Stars
Role: Luna Chief Engineer, Chief Science Officer | Head of Logistics and Requisitions
Motivation: A new future for mankind. Or, yknow, something along those lines.
Other Information: Nothing of note.

Official Name: The Sons of the Stars
Common Name: The Sons
Founder: Vladimir Illyich Yashnev
Current Leader: Vladimir Illyich Yashnev
Description: A rather informal bloc, the Sons formed from a debate club in the launch bay of the Luna mission where those more forward thinking individuals of the missions dreamt of what this first planetary colonization meant for humanity. Composed of many of the engineering and science staff of the mission, they hold fairly moderate beliefs about both lunar sovereignty and what shape a lunar society should take, but press relentlessly for colonial expansion and technological diversification.
Members: 10
Other Information: In time the Sons will evolve to take a slightly technocratic and militaristic bent, but that might change depending on how their interactions with other factions go.

Alright, accepted. I'm unclear though, are those three positions all held by your character in the base? If so, I'll allow him to hold them, but the if anyone asks for one of those positions, I may have to give it to them. That being said, you'll still have the other two. Also, what three traits would you say describe your faction? One positive, one neutral, and one kind of negative. By the way, there are now 49 colonists in factions, or blocs, so if that one guy gets back to me with an RP example, or someone else makes a faction, I'll extend the number of colonists to 100.

I'll most likely have an IC up on Monday, but the RP will remain open.

I kinda assumed Science/Engineering would be bundled- if you have to drop one, drop Science. I envision him kinda as the techie who makes sure the base functions, and thus is in charge of drawing up lists of all the replacement parts needed, construction materials desired, and whatnot. Master of Storehouses and Construction.

Hmm, the Sons are probably +Resourceful ~Moderate -Unethical.

Name: Anna Sandesgeist
Gender: Cis-Female
Age: 13/07/2001 | 24 Years Old

Backstory/Biography: Anna Maria Sandesgeist was born during a calm, brisk night in Manhattan, NYC. Being the only child of two scientist parents who often bordered on being absentees, Anna would become a brilliant, yet distant child. Because she wasn't tended to as a child in the way that her peers were, she didn't develop a 'normal' emotional gauge, but she did feel a bit affected by the lack of parental attention she received, which is where her interest in science came from. She wouldn't begin to show her brilliance until middle school, however. Attending Verdant Collegiate Charter School as a new student in Grade 7, Anna was often quietly sat in a corner by herself, reading a book or studying while the other kids played and went on with their usual activities. The few times she tried to make friends, she would be ignored outright, or messed with. She would give up social interaction until Grade 12, when she was approached by an ambassador of the Burnside Academy for Brilliant Minds; a university for those with above-average intelligence and other advanced talents.

Anna's parents were well-known astronomers, who had just begun to pay their daughter attention...a bit too late, as she was now 17 and attending university. The Sandesgeist family were respected by a handful of organisations, and when they were approached to participate in the lunar habitation project, they couldn't say yes quickly enough. A number of years later, both Mr and Mrs Sandesgeist died in a classified accident on Luna. Shortly thereafter, a representative was scouting for talent at the Burnside Academy, when by chance, they met Anna. After learning who her parents were and looking into her academic background, she was invited to participate in the lunar habitation project. Not only would she be given space to work without someone breathing down her neck, she would also be given access to resources the project's committee had access to, as well as recreational assistance. The kicker? She would be able to continue her education if she wanted to, and would earn college credits simply for participating to the best of her ability! Seeing the opportunity to make her parents proud, and be part of something challenging, Anna almost teleported into the program's Conceptual Sciences Division.

Qualifications: Masters of Science - Burnside Academy | Masters of Techonology - Burnside Academy | Doctorate in Science - Burnside Academy (postponed; continued under Lunar Habitation School of Luna)

Appearance: Anna is a short young lady with a delicate frame. She often keeps her long black hair tied in a professional, office-style bun, with her bangs covering her soulful, brown eyes. Her skin has a touch of olive, and she tans easily. Good thing she lives on Luna! You can find her wearing either a white labcoat with the whole skirt and heels get up, or a simple t-shirt with canvas shorts. Only when she's doing the ambassador thing does she get on her suit-n-tie game.

Faction: The Free State of Luna
Role: Anna is one of the leading individuals of the Free State, though she still leads her team in the Conceptual Sciences and Innovation Division.
Motivation: She wants to create a society that would represent a model for future galactic civilizations to come, and one that would make her parents, and her faction, proud.
Other Information: I'll add when I think of stuff.
RP Example: Right here!

Official Name: The Free State of Luna
Common Name: Free State - Colloquial/Shorthand | Spacenoids - Derogatory, Informal, Denonym
Founder: Winston Sandegeist, Annette Sandesgeist, Liam Zabi, Arthur C. Zeon. The list goes on.
Current Leader: Anna Sandesgeist and a handful of others.

Description: The Free State of Luna is the birthchild of scientists, philosophers and spiritualists working with anti-government types who believe that Earth has no right to dictate what those who live on Luna do with their lives. Believing Luna, and by extension, all of space to be the property of those who live or were born in it (called "Spacenoids"), the Free State looks down on the "Earthnoids" who think they can tell them what to do. Because Earthnoids couldn't do it right in the 250,000+ years they've been living on the pale blue dot, there is no reason life on Luna would be much better under Earthen rule. The Free State feels that they don't even care about Luna; they only want her resources, and to see who wins the race to militarise her the way they almost militarised space. Self-determination, free will, and ultimate sovereignty of the individual and collective Spacenoids is the Free State's aim, and they want no part in handing over resources they could use to the greedy Earthnoids who will only continue their planet-decaying wars until Earth literally falls apart.

In addition, the Free State is pseudo-racist, in that they believe Spacenoids are humanity's next step in evolution. Those who call Luna their home are a new type of human; a Spacenoid. Those still bound by Earth's constraints don't have the stuff necessary to evolve, and thus would likely ruin Lunar society with their grounded, earthbound perspective. This includes any Lunar collectives still loyal or promoting submission to the Earth government. Perhaps the most agreeable view they have is that of libertarianism; where the government should be small as possible, and protect the life, liberty and property of its people. Religion has no place in the state, and there is strong separation of state and church. Those who still believe in mythical sky parents and push that ideology are also people who would not get along with the Free State.

Members: 7

Other Information: They're basically scientific, space Buddhist shaman Nazis who want a strong economic, political, scientific and military to either get Earth to piss off or be blown off...of the galactic map! They will not engage in war unless you are an aggressor in any form or fashion, or otherwise actively inhibit their road to independence and self-determinism.

Your character is too young and does not have an actual role here on the moon.

Also, there is already a separatist faction called... well, the separatists. To have another would be redundant.

Name: Sigmund Kalbfleisch
Gender: Male
Age: 30
Backstory/Biography: Born and raised in Hamburg, Germany in 1995, young Sigmund was always exceptionally bright - and privileged. His father was an influential German SDP politician, first in the Hamburg Parliament then in the German Bundestag. From his father, he earned his skill and passion as an up and coming politician, who perhaps may have had a promising career ahead of him had he not chosen to use his exceptional mind to focus on biology and medicine. He quickly went through higher education and became a doctor when he was 22 years old and a certified surgeon at 27, a remarkable feat by any standards. When the Lunar Colony mission was announced, his father pulled strings to get young Sigmund into that colony - after all, with Germany having one of the strongest economies at that point and being a benefactor of the mission, it was only fitting that a German from a prominent political family be chosen to perform a great duty for Earth. The prodigious Sigmund humbly accepted the honor that was bestowed upon him, with the promise to his father that he would bring honor to their family and that he would ensure that Lunar Colony and Earth would remain in a close embrace (Sorry if this paragraph is a bit shoddy, its been a while since I last posted in NS).

Name: Sigmund Kalbfleisch
Gender: Male
Age: 30
Backstory/Biography: Born and raised in Hamburg, Germany in 1995, young Sigmund was always exceptionally bright - and privileged. His father was an influential German SDP politician, first in the Hamburg Parliament then in the German Bundestag. From his father, he earned his skill and passion as an up and coming politician, who perhaps may have had a promising career ahead of him had he not chosen to use his exceptional mind to focus on biology and medicine. He quickly went through higher education and became a doctor when he was 22 years old and a certified surgeon at 27, a remarkable feat by any standards. When the Lunar Colony mission was announced, his father pulled strings to get young Sigmund into that colony - after all, with Germany having one of the strongest economies at that point and being a benefactor of the mission, it was only fitting that a German from a prominent political family be chosen to perform a great duty for Earth. The prodigious Sigmund humbly accepted the honor that was bestowed upon him, with the promise to his father that he would bring honor to their family and that he would ensure that Lunar Colony and Earth would remain in a close embrace (Sorry if this paragraph is a bit shoddy, its been a while since I last posted in NS).
Qualifications: Sigmund Kalbfleisch is a doctor and surgeon, not to mention well-connected to Earth, something that could come in handy should the colony become desperate for supplies and aid.

Official Name: Gaia Fortuna
Common Name: N/A
Founder: Sigmund Kalbfleisch
Current Leader: Sigmund Kalbfleisch
Description: The Gaia Fortuna faction was founded upon the settlement of the Lunar Colony by Sigmund Kalbfleisch and other colonists who believed that the Colony should be just that, a colony of Earth. These "Earth loyalists," as they have been sometimes referred to, tend to be progressive and secular - despite personal religious beliefs. Their main goal is to ensure that Earth and the Colony keep close ties through trade and communication.

I like this faction. A collective still loyal to Earth. That brings in another dynamic for the RP. Props to you, sir!
