Hm.

Is there any word on how religion and spirituality works in the Imperium?

Yes and no. I didn’t go into exhaustive detail on how every major religion works. However by their name schemes there can be information inferred. Truly of this scope there’s probably dozens of ways in each major religion to express spirituality.

@Union, given the scale I’m not sure how useful a map would be beyond showing locations of some planets.

I thought it was from Dune, I recall Zensunni and Mahayana Catheric.

Zensunni is the Dune reference. Mahayana Catheric is just me mashing Mahayana Buddhism and Christian Catholicism together.

I assume the various SAS' out there would be allowed to maintain their own native religions?

Hyperborea is going be to some fun times then, in terms of guerrilla warfare and rampant insurrection lmao. Mostly because I have no confidence I can maintain space superiority for long, so dragging the fight on the ground level would likely be my best option.

Rainy and cold the entire day.

Perfect to get some writing done some would say.

Yet here I am, stuck under a blanket in embryonic position and trying to warm myself up.

Du bist so wunderbar Berlin...

Es gibt ein Haus in Neu-Berlin, man nennt es Haus Abendrot.

Hey Imp, my app for a Grand Admiral is finished.

Can I also get a verdict on the Deynai Order? Rather than making one big character, I think I'll just be weaving wandering Daynai into the various IC plotlines, so the organization's app should be taken as my main application.

What is the standard for firearms, is it still mostly ballistic or a mix of laser and ballistic firearms, or just lasers?

I certainly hope that if the coalition breaks down, it will be a clash of the titans between Irene and Bratislav's forces in some corner in the galaxy

Doesn't help I also nicknamed him the General of the North, basically making him Mance Rayder but on the interstellar scale.

Will the rays of the sun melt the ice and snow or will the unyielding winter consume all warmth?

Also, may the gods save the universe if the two sides unite into a coalition of the Winter Sun

Feel like there's a lotta stuff north lol.

Don't know where Betreuen is but like...if there's this General of the North, then there's Vladimir on his icy world on the very fringe of the northern Periphery, there's the uh...the Midnight Hegemony is up in the north somewhere. I think Ely's character is also in the north with his fleet.

I was planning on having Irene be in the western or southwestern portion of the Imperium. Would put the Emperor between a rock and a hardplace between revolutionary fervor and ultranationalists reactionaries. Also, if the Imperium implodes, being far away from the Hyperboreans would give me enough wiggle room to carve a small fiefdom for Irene.

Yeah, I personally decided to go north because, well, it's as far away from the Magellanic Clouds and possible Shadow resurgence and as "peaceful" and "backwater-ish" as possible.

Needed that for the Amban whose app I'm writing rn.
