The V O I D is not an entity. It's an infinite black space outside of Existence, with planets and Black Suns. It's owned by various mini-Empires and nations.
But, these nations are all commonly referred to, as a union, "The V O I D", because of the fact they live in the endless void outside of Existence itself.

Also, would you mind if I joined? Methinks it'd be fun.

I know, but he's just now getting to ones requested in January. His logos are great, but I'm impatient, and plan to open up by the weekend.

You know, you can always do without the logo for a while.

That's how some do it. Business successes first, fancy logos later.

Like I said, I want it to be the Lyran Arms of prostitution. People are more likely to buy from a professional-looking storefront, it seems. Company logo and all.

I'll figure something out. Worst comes to worst, I can get on my computer with paint.NET installed and cook up something. I don't think I'm that bad with simple logos.

So, anyone care to comment on my futuristic United Nations?

It's currently a work-in-progress, and I hope to have a final draft up by tomorrow along with an application format. (The final version shall be posted on the forums)

Keep in mind that I'm intentionally trying to keep it relatively simple, as I'd like a majority of it to revolve around player-interaction in the actual IC where people will basically RP their nation's representative at the Union Head-Quarters, a fancy lil' space-station in neutral space protected by the forces of the various member-states. Each state having their own little branch off of the main body of the station which will be considered territory of their nation, a bit like an embassy in that sense. In the IC, you'll be able to RP speaking with fellow ambassadors in the privacy of your own wing, dine in the various restaurants and enter some heated debates within the Union Chambers during assemblies. Perhaps you could even brown-nose some of the Permanent Members to see about getting yourself a promotion into their ranks.

I am thinking of possibly starting a "Tatran Himalayan Expeditionary Force" as an excuse to use certain Indian and Chinese weapons, equipment, and uniforms that I consider to be "cool". The IC purpose would be to intercept and destroy the Schutzstaffel Tibet Expedition of 1938-39 and to find "Shambhala" before they can (or something to that effect).

Oh, this is going to be interesting. My advise is to avoid the core of the Void, simply due to the fact it has ten Black Suns and one planet, which is home of the Solarians, a species who are made from cosmic energy. They're highly hostile and hate tresspassers in the Void.
BTW; can I have a link to the RP, please?

In the meantime, I am trying to figure out what your RP's about. You don't happen to have a strict closed-door policy or a dislike for FanT-esque FT, do you?

Which RP? I have several going now ^-^;, several of which are with the guys over at GESO

As for FanT, nah, I tend to run on rule of cool, I have some realism I like, but its hard to explain. My species uses freaking blood to go into berzerker rage, well, the main species anyway.
