Also known as the Fustercluck (which I have been advised might not be a suitable thread title), this is an event that was promised way back on page 1 of the original Screw Realism thread, but was delayed indefinitely due to a series of unfortunate circumstances. Now, though, I'm ready to move forward with it.

What it is: A World War for FT and FanT nations. MT, PT, etc. people are welcome too, but they can't complain about power levels unless obvious godmodding is happening. This is, after all, a thread that will contain the destruction of a planet in its first five pages.

The story: Aratar the Forsaken, ruler of Karn Evil Nine and archenemy of Olwean ruler Jason Frost, has discovered a way to bring Olwe to its knees... if he's crazy enough to use it. He is, and all hell breaks loose. With the opening of Pandora's Box (yes, the literal actual artifact), all the troubles that have ever plagued the multiverse return, usually but not always in the same places they hit before. This massive temporal disturbance will allow participants to roleplay the most heinous events of their nation's past, fleshing out historical details that have previously only been hinted at in an over the top, hopefully very fun way. It will also allow us to play with characters, concepts and events from our favorite science fiction, fantasy and horror.

This is doubled down on when Olwe counters with the Horn Of Valere, bringing back into the present all the great heroes (both historical nation ones and franchise canons from Harry Potter to Han Solo) of the past.

Events will be canon for Olwe and Karn (who is my puppet), and major characters in both will be killed off for real. How canonical this is for your nation(s) is up to you. Puppets are welcome if you feel up to running more than one nation in the IC, just try not to have them collaborate with each other too much unless your main nation is absorbing one (which will be happening with a third nation of mine).

So, who's interested?

I remember really looking forward to this back when you first came up with it, largely as an excuse to do something in character with The Spiders From Mars again. I'm... I mean, we're in.
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.

It's open to anyone who's willing to accept the utter lack of tech and species restrictions. Welcome aboard. It'd help me write in ways to keep you as involved as possible if you TG me some info, but it's not mandatory.

I'm more not into realistic war RPs :P Plus I've missed RPing with you, been a while.

And FWIW, Columbia has been RPing with me recently and has power armor, so Id imagine he's fine with lack of realism, but I'll let him talk with you about it.

And laser rifles and plasma weapons and an Absolute Monarchy in a 50's scifi American Empire that rules Canada and Mexico as well... And a potential High King with a Draconid son-in-law.

Yeah... I think I can turn off the realism part of my brain for this RP :P

I'm very interested. As the Free Federation has a demonic invasion in its past, the opening of Pandora's box would likely mean their return, and force the government and media to openly acknowledge the existence of the supernatural in response to a second demonic invasion.

That could get interesting. I also seem to remember you being attacked by New Nicksyllvania back in... '09, I think it was? So that could be an extra layer of complications...

Limits on powers are more of a make them up as we go along kind of thing. No limit on number of characters... I fully expect that between this puppet, other puppets and my main nation Olwe I'm going to be running well over 100 characters.

Zuni is FT, but will recognize FanT and Pony nations. I am also capable of playing in MT or late-PT threads if needed, by switching blasters for revolvers and speeders for horses.

I'm also interested. Rolling around some ideas like the maybe the temporal disturbance happens to recreate (or simply reveals the presence of, deliberate vagueness HOOO) some artifacts the Legions of the Maw want to get their grubby mits on, along with taking advantage of the lowercase c chaos to wreck up the place.

Sorry for the short (and probably shitty) post. Originally planned for it to be High King Foley and Emperor Foley arriving at Dyste. Changed it so it's Sergeant Foley (Foley when he was in the Columbian Marine Corps) and saving the invasion of Dyste for the next one. Again sorry fellas if it's not my best work. Especially compared to Dyste's post.
