This map shows the timezones of Arda. As you can see, she's a big'un. The timezones are labelled 1-10 because it was how I started and I'm too lazy to redo it (again), but Timezone 4 is our equivalent of GMT since it contains the capital (the black dot). The teal dot in timezone 2 is Fort Lannistar. The orange dot in timezone 6 is Arnesk, and the blue one below it is Ali'Staan. The bright pink dot is Xingu's capital, Mahzhong. The attack will have been timed to interrupt the morning news in Xingu, which means it's around 2200 at Fort Lannistar when shots are fired.
All PC posts should occur between this post and my next; if you have something written but aren't sure you can get it up in time let me know, but I have a lot of work to do for this so it might still be a few days before that happens--don't feel rushed.
Also, Butmanlands, I need you to develop more the reasons why your government would give a wet fart (no offense) about the situation in Xingu and explain why their first reaction is to send specops. I know I okayed your involvement on those terms in a general sense, but they need to be fleshed out alittlelot more. I also need you to consider that if you're outside sol, the broadcast of the shooting hasn't reached you yet, as there's been something of a general (especially FTL) comms blackout in Sol. I can only assume that your government wouldn't know about this until FTL comms in sol are once again made operational.

And they would care because they wouldn't know a lot about you or yourenemiesreplacements. Thats why they would send in some of the best to investigate both the shooting and your goverment. (if you still don't like it Tg me ASAP and i will delete it)

First, may I ask that we have at least one 'non' kill character? With an additional rule that they can not be 'front line'? By that designation, I mean people who are not being sent into the situation ( but the situation may roll over them anyway) by their players.

This is most likely my own darn fault for not making it clearer in my own IC post.
Naiya D'Aquisto is not within the 47 seconds of footage broadcast to everyone. Only the Crown Prince Edward is and is, as like all Ardan Monarchs leading from the front.
Naiya was many, many miles away in a seperate military base which also came under attack during the rough time frame of the broadcast (and a lot either side of it). I don't RP any details beyond "She was also attacked" because most of my eye in the sky intel stuff is now on the fritz.
The footage, you guys have no doubt read, seen, which is first mentioned in my post is actually a second, seperate video which is drawn from The Southron hookah lounge, and this post in particular in which Nayia a little clumsily lays her hand on Edward's leg, then gets up to leave, they go off to do the horizontal rumba, and thus the rumours are born. I did this little bit with Nathi and Melkor's permission to check I wasn't overstepping any bounds of intel gathering etc.
It's obviously confused some a little, I should've written it clearer etc. My bad, totally sorry.

"The target in the video is Crown Prince Edward, and according to reports, Naiya D'Aquisto was present as well, off-camera. They are the successors to Arda and the Dominion, respectively. The assassins all appear to be Xingu. There's been a rebellion growing among that group, which could explain the shooting, and possibly the virus. Will you check on that, Shawn?"

Oh snap!
Yeah this is my fault for not making clear. You're right about one thing and wrong about another: Naiya does not appear in the footage, but she is understood to be in the same room. Both Naiya and Edward were at Fort Lannistar at the time, attending an officer's dinner.
