Postby The Unhallowed City » Wed Sep 09, 2015 5:19 am

The Unhallowed City plays host to a gang of undying skeletons that take to the streets with Thompson machine guns and machetes. They're a bit of a problem for anyone who doesn't pay respect to their little crew, but local necromancer's attempts to put them down have always resulted in failure. The Archmage finally made an official statement regarding the gang. It went something like, "If I get one more letter saying 'I've got a bone to pick with you', I'll detonate the entire quarter of the city those sodding skeletons are in."

The skeletons didn't stop sending letters, but the Archmage has not carried out their promise yet. Everyone is very curious to see which way things are going.

damn son, where'd you find that?

There is a method of torture called the "Galactic Pain Intensifier"; it intensifies the pain an individual can experience over all of the planetary nodes in an entire galaxy. A single pinprick is enough to send a man into a hell beyond all perception of agony.

Torture has been made mostly obsolete here, we would just upload you into a crystal, and dissect it for any info we needed. If we needed your physical body, we could always clone you, and use the download to emulate... certain features, while excluding others. Or use hard light, or fabricate another body.

Rather than being considered obsolete, torture is viewed as always having been wrong here, and cloning is illegal.

In our country, pain is merely one of two aspects that compose our torture philosphy. It's the juxtaposition with the other aspect that really gives our methods their magic.

DON'T BE LAZY. READ FACTBOOKS. ONLY LOSERS USE NS STATS IN LIEU OF FACTBOOKS. DON'T BE A LOSER.

Tell me, have you ever heard of a national religion centered entirely around sex? No? Interested...? It's the best current overview of this nation anyways ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Please note that this nation certainly does not reflect my real-world beliefs and values.

Fighting wars is a national pastime.
Everyone must die. No, really. Our entire government is devoted to destroying our own citizens.
They deserve it anyway.

We're not edgy, we're just upfront about how cruel we all are.

Despite costing 1.9 Trillion denariks, Uelvan is constructing a small base on the moon. Not even the government is sure what the use of this might be, but people are too afraid to question Kayçar and his secret police.

Literally accurate:

1 day 8 hours ago: Following new legislation in Uelvan, millions of Ðenariks have been thrown into a project to find the cure for Mad Man-Eating Giraffe Disease.

8 hours ago: Following new legislation in Uelvan, thousands of children die every day from easily curable illnesses.

Transferring information from disorganized notes into presentable factbooks is way too time consuming for a procrastinator. Just ask if you have questions.
Plutocratic Evil Empire™ situated in a post-apocalyptic Decopunk North America. Extreme PMT, yet socially stuck in the interwar/immediate post-war era, with Jazz music and flapper culture alongside nanotechnology and Martian colonies. Tier I power of the Frencoverse.

At a Taharan wedding, it is consider impolite for the groom to not offer children of the bride's family a drunken joy ride whilst they fire off rounds wildly into the night sky.
