It's a failure. I didn't advertise it here, but I did advertised it through Discord, mainly to the RP groups (though to be honest I actually expected for people to join because of the name's popularity, or the series.
I'm wondering if it is because the exhaustion of normal military special forces RP? I also wonder if adding in certain elements (like sci-fi, or extraterrestrials ala ATHENA) is going to work.

Maybe.
What was the last version?

On March 3rd 2019, a joint program between NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA, the ESA and CSA was declared: Patrocles, starting a path to extra-solar exploration. Engine designs, hydroponics, new space age materials and cold storage of both supplies as well as people were avenues all explored. All bore some sort of practical fruit, that is, all but the cold storage and resuscitation of living humans. Cadavers had been used prior, causing no notable tissue damage, and after that animals, with no other notable damage. The scheduled event that was to freeze several volunteers from international selections was halted, 2006 DP14 was discovered on a collision course with Earth in May of 2020.
Avenues of approach were brought up, but no real thought was put into the asteroid actually impacting earth. Though as the days, weeks, months passed, it became more and more concrete that Earth was under a very direct and very serious threat. ICBM usage was jossed about, as was the usage of mass drivers to deflect it, as time went on, even the incredulous thought of a manned mission to destroy it was brought up, but none could have any reliability, much less feasible attainment.
And then, a mere moment of hope. Ironically, Deimos, entered the path of the Asteroid, causing it to fracture, but not disappear. Humanity was now no longer confirmed to it's death sentence, but now, massive chunks were not only confirmed to still be heading into Earth's gravity well, but most likely into a decaying orbit. All humanity had left was time.
On September 14th of 2028, Humanity managed to gain some form of assurance, a massive system of mass drivers located in national countrysides built to destroy as many meteorites as they could to avoid as much damage as possible. On November 30th 2028, an extra step was taken, a number of people, from all walks of life, and all occupations, were entombed in cold storage containers. Inset into the long since decommissioned depths of the Butler County's Iron Mountain Data Center. 340 Men, women, and children were frozen. Only to be awoken at a later date when humanity was safe, or when power ran out.
December 25th, 2028. Humanity's last, honest Christmas, first impact in the East China Sea. Over the next day, hundreds of impacts would rain across Asia and Europe, trailing over to North America and the Atlantic. Billions die in the initial bombardment, many more follow. Within 3 years, Earth's biosphere enters another ice age, the amount of debris in the atmosphere preventing proper temperate changes. It ends after 79 years, altering Earth's biosphere to an unrecognizable degree. Sans those scant few humans that survived on the surface, and the much fewer in their frozen tombs.
The date is now August 18th, 3312. Earth has shifted considerably, many landmarks are now either overgrown, eroded, or occupied by religious tribes. Craters dot the Earth, many deep enough to have volcanic activity. Coastlines have forever changed, raising dramatically compared to the previous level. And deep within the bowels of the Earth, a nuclear fusion reactor finally gives out. Setting an auto release for over 340 Cold Storage pods, their occupants in a dreamless and perception-less sleep for nearly 1300 years, less than a quarter will awake. The rest falling victim to the untested and unused systems, nothing more than withered husks with un-maintained pods. Those that do awake, will be as disoriented as someone literally blinking through time periods.
You are one of those remaining few who have the privilege of waking up.
This is your story.

-Soundtrack-  The Legends of Eroris Brotherhood IC Thread Archive Co-OPs- - "Our forces were in dire straits... The enemy calvary had just routed our right flank and everyone thought that it was the end. I was among Alaro's guard that day. He didn't care for his own safety; just for the safety of his soldiers. He disappeared into the enemy horde and for a moment I feared he had been cut down... But later I saw the Emperor, blood and gore encrusted on his valiant blade, fighting with the strength of a thousand men. At that moment I couldn't tell if he was an elf, or a god..." Soldier of the Order of the Phoenix, written in 2284 of the 3rd Era "...We had left Eroris as strong men, proud and ignorant of the atrocities that we would face... but now we are just scared boys, broken, riven, and doomed to die..." -Fallen Soldier Today is the 30th of Hard Rain (4) the year 4E 901. Alaro Ashen's heirs still rule his Empire, but now they, and the whole of Eroris, face the greatest threat in Erori history. Though, to get to the heart of the story, we have to go back to the beginning. When Alaro Ashen first united the bickering states of Eroris under his Ashen Empire, the people rejoiced. They were tired after centuries in the darkness of the Third and worse Interregnum. Man killed Man, Beast killed Beast, and Elf killed Elf. The wars of the Third Interregnum were terrible. However, what the people of Eroris failed to realize at the start of the Empire was that a greater prize, dominion over all of Eroris, led to greater conflict. The years of Alaro, and his son Alyari after him, were times of peace and prosperity. And when I say years, I am referring to a few hundred years; elves are naturally long lived after all. However, this tendency to live a hundred, nay, three-hundred years led many Ashen princes to ponder: "Wouldn't it be better if I was the Emperor?" At first, these feelings lingered under the surface, leaving the aging Alyari to dread what would occur following his death. He warned his family to stop bickering over the most trivial of matters before a conflict between cousins turned into a conflict between provinces. These words, however, fell on deaf ears. And, as often comes true with the predictions of dying old men, Alyari's fears came true. The first war of the Ashens, the War of the Phoenix, devastated Eroris on a scale the minor warlords of the Interregnum could only dream of. A continent ripe for the taking was just too great a prize for some. There were periods of peace, yes, but in the end, another long lived uncle or cousin emerged to challenge another for the right to the throne. All this came to a head, however, with the death of Aren II. Now, Aren II was no ordinary Ashen. He was ambitious, much like Alaro before him, and this ambition led him to his death. You see, what is the point of ambition to conquer more for the Empire when all before his eyes is already conquered? His solution was simple: the southern continent of Akou. Now, not much was known about Akou in those days and even today. Most of the information modern Eroris has on Akou comes from the few races of the land that have migrated onto Eroris. Nevertheless, this foolhardy Emperor invaded, eighty-thousand men, the largest force ever assembled in Erori history, set out to Akou and only one frightened soul returned. Eroris forgot about Aren II's foolish mission... but Akou did not. After his death during his invasion, the War of the Black Phoenix erupted, in which all but one Ashen was killed, the reigning Emperor, up until very, very recently: Azelian the Great. Now, Azelian the Great looked back on all that had gone wrong with his dynasty, and decided that, in the event of his death, any Ashen could challenge the heir apparent for the throne not in war, but in a trial by combat: The Proving. Of course, since he was the only Ashen left, this seemed to be a wise decision on his part. However, this decision could very well doom Eroris. For just a few days before the 30th, the day our story begins, our great, wise Emperor Azelian received reports that a large group of... marauders, we shall call them, had landed on the Valyarian Isle of Alista, and had laid siege to Evermoor. He set out with a legion, confident that he would drive the rabble from his shores. Little did he know, which he would only discover upon his death, was that this was no rabble. This was an invasion... And that brings us back to now. The Isle of Alista remains cut off from all outside contact as a fleet of "marauders" guards the coast of this great isle. Meanwhile, the sole white raven flies high towards Isnhrion to reignite a conflict between two brothers that could very well doom the world, and I am not speaking lightly when I say this. The dice has been cast, the pieces have been placed, prayers have been answered, (and Lore has been typed) This is the Legend of the Akouteen Invasion. "I'm not a leader because I am sure of myself, I am leader because my people are sure of me." -Alaro Ashen |
