FT Nation Index

Postby The Legion of War » Thu Jan 31, 2013 6:18 pm

So as we all know, the FT community is much smaller than the MT/PMT crowd. Anyways, I was thinking wouldn't it be great to have one central location to find other FT players?

That's what this thread is for. To take a quick glance through at the various FT nations out there and get a basic run down about who they are. This isn't meant for people to start to criticizing other nations, it's just so that people can have a quick reference about their fellow FT player.

Notable events in nation's history (be brief):
Ideals (things seen as good):
Things frowned upon:

[b][u]Out Of Character:[/u][/b]
Do your IC actions reflect your views?

But never victory

So let us cast arms aside

And like discard our wrath

OOC: This is a great idea and I'll fill out the form as soon as I have time. I just wanted to say that I wholeheartedly think we need this and you're awesome for doing it.
Founded: 2480
Current year: 5001
Magic: Non-negotiable
Ponies: Yes, occasionally
Tech levels incompatible? Then kick me out of the thread, because if you RP with me you accept my tech.
Note: Before 2480, Olwe was called Athan. If you see this word in a thread, it's because you mentioned a year incompatible with Olwe in that thread but still made it open to all techs and therefore are allowing Athan's magic.

Notable events in nation's history (be brief):
Humans from Earth settled in local star systems and formed the Saurorean Republic, expanding outwards from there. They came into contact with various non-Human species in the surrounding systems, whom the Republic government regarded as inferior. Republic slowly becomes more oppressive and more xenophobic, earning the ire of both non-human natives and a number of humans opposed to the increasingly oppressive government. Dinosaurs are created as part of an effort to create super soldiers as well as public entertainment to keep the population in line, though they eventually rebel. Native nonhumans and human dissidents join growing effort to defeat the Saurorean government, which eventually succeeds. The United Dinosaur States of Saurisia is formed as the newly-formed government establishes control over the systems under its power and begins a policy of gradual expansion. The nation undergoes a brief totalitarian reign which is eventually toppled after fifteen years of terror. Afterwards, a group of radicals secede, an attempt is made to crush the secessionist movement which at first fails but eventually succeeds nearly a century later after the secessionists attempted a surprise assault on a neighboring loyalist-occupied planet.

Things frowned upon: Homosexuality, certain kinds of interspecies relationships, drugs, human supremacism, abortion

(OOC: My schedule opened up, and I can do this tonight after all.)

In Character:
Full Name of Nation: The Magocratic Empire of Olwe
Short Name of Nation: Olwe, The Olwean Empire
Dominant Species (percentage): Humans (50%)
Minority Species (percentages): Elves, Wesen, Talking Beasts (including Ponies), Futanari, Nekomimi, Dekerins, Hircines, Zeltrons, Twi'leks, Wookiees, Chazrac, Dwarves, Goblins, Ogier, Angels, Succubi, Therianthropes (werewolves, werecats, werebears, etc.), Anthros ("furries"), Mogwai, Orcs, Trolls, Vampires
Government System: Feudal (aristocracy is in place) Socialist (universal healthcare is in place, and businesses are regulated) Magocracy (all high-level government officials use magic)
Views on Xenos (sentient beings who are not the dominant species in your nation): Positive until they commit a crime (so by their very nature, things like zombies and Gremlins are viewed negatively).
Notable events in nation's history (be brief): Waged semi-successful war on the Catholic Church; co-founded The Pentagram Bloc to prevent forced conversion of worlds to outside religious beliefs by applying military force against the attackers; conquered Phyrexia and Nicksyllvania (now-defunct NS country)
Ideals (things seen as good): Environmentalism, sexual freedom, open marriage, dueling, karmic justice
Things frowned upon: Slavery, capitalism, theocracy, pacifism, bigotry

Out Of Character:
Do your IC actions reflect your views? They're an extreme reflection of them, yes.
What is your tech base/influence? Tech base: Equal mix of FT and FanT. Tech influence: Speculative fiction in general, with primarily sci-fi and fantasy tropes (I use enough horror tropes in my other nations). Specifically Star Wars, Magic: The Gathering, LOTR, Grimm and Narnia have had the biggest influences on tech/species, while Spartacus: Vengeance has had the biggest influence on writing/RPing style.
Are you an active player? Fairly. I'm not gonna try to convince anyone I have no life or anything, and I might be offline for as much as 3 days at a time sometimes, but generally speaking I'm on once a day.
Do prefer character RPs or large scale wars? Either way works for me, as long as there's more action than governmental or tech stuff... details can get boring fast, I prefer to get to the next badass swordfight as quickly as possible.
From novice to veteran, what kind of RPer would you say you are? Advanced novice with a little bit left to learn before becoming a true veteran.

Short Name of Nation: The Trade Guild
Dominant Species (percentage): Journeymen* (55%)
Minority Species (percentages): Navigators* (20%), Tradesmen* (20%), Other** (5%)
*pan-human/human subspecies **includes regular humans
Government System: Space capitalism, Realpolitik
Views on Xenos (sentient beings who are not the dominant species in your nation): They should buy things from us. Like instantaneous transportation.
Notable events in nation's history (be brief): A group of traders on Corotin discovered instantaneous FTL technologies, discovery of melange increases human abilities to be capable of using said FTL, Corotin secedes from Earth and takes Guild with it, Guild dominates Corotinian interplanetary travel and also gains Wallace as an associated ex-Terran world, technological progression increases rapidly, discovers the post-apocalyptic underground civilization know as Squalor, continuous further expansion and market dominance as of now.
Ideals (things seen as good): Efficiency, technology, evolution, change and personal freedom.
Things frowned upon: Technological stagnation, political bureaucracy, corruption and hostility towards the Guild or it's customers/allies.

Out Of Character:
Do your IC actions reflect your views? Sometimes. Usually not. Nation is run on more of a 'let's make an interesting thing' logic than utopianism, along Corotin has some elements of my ideal of a good society. Wallace and Squalor are outright cool-based with no care for goodness or freedom.
What is your tech base/influence? Dune is the largest contributor. Post-Scattering Duniverse that is. A few Expanded elements. WH40k influence also appears if only because it has a lot of similar terms to Dune and the Eldar have cool technology.
Are you an active player? I don't know yet. Ask me in a month or two.
Do prefer character RPs or large scale wars? Character RPs for sure, although a good war going on in the background is a plus as it adds possible plots and events. Generally prefer character interaction over 'boom I shoot you'.
From novice to veteran, what kind of RPer would you say you are? I have no idea. I'd like to think I'm good.

green bipedal mostly catlike in appearance

just about everything imaginable, even a micro-minority of so called humans

inverted pyramid of councils of low persons

people of all worlds are people, whatever their life form looks like

our nation was formed, we participated in the solving of the invasion of the greshnaka

mellowness is its own reward, a world gratifying to all depends upon self discipline and mutual universal consideration and reverence.

aggressiveness and evil are one and the same. tyranny is its dominance, regardless of ideology, form of government, economics or belief

yes, that is the whole reason i am here

real (literary) science fiction, including but not limited to james h schmitz' worlds of the hub, many of the tablets of baha'u'llah, abdu'l baha, and lao tsu, with generous amounts of 'real world' engineering, science and art, thrown in for good measure

active? building interests me, conflict does not.

both, more interested in settings, imagineering and architecture then creating characters, but also prefer to see them at individual eye level

i've roll played in the past, but i'm interested in the kind of world i'm interested in, not the roll play of combat and aspects of combat, conflict, and competition that every roll play on nation states seems to have an unfortunate tendency to devolve into. my participation in roll play has been where and when it was possible to pick up and set down, without long term commitment, nor fixed rosters of participants. this was at a time when it was possible to roll play in such manor without such a roll play being trolled to death.

Tech influence: Various David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Queen, April Wine, King Crimson and ELP songs mostly... some other musical influences as well, but those are the most sci-fi bands I could think of off the top of my head.
Are you an active player? Not before, but I'm becoming more active now. I'll be around when needed.
Do prefer character RPs or large scale wars? Doesn't really matter, although I seem to be doing more character stuff.
From novice to veteran, what kind of RPer would you say you are? Pretty experienced, but I still have a few things to master before I start calling myself an expert.
Yes, all musical references are intentional.

The Rhythm Nation was founded in 1369 and is still around as late as 5000 AD, so I can RP in any tech setting you want. But magic does exist and can be used, and this is non-negotiable.
