T H E  I S S U E

After a long Reign, the Emperor has gained a dislike in the Ancient houses. They are his fierce Opposition, and now, his Rivals in War. They have for along time shown discontentment and given ugly glares to the back of the Emperor's head, but stayed quiet. Now, they rise up against the Emperor, and face the largest Military in Eztobrughri with nothing but an unstoppable Hope at their side. Will the ancient glory of long-dead Houses be reclaimed, or will the Emperor's reign last until the end of Time?

The House of Ancients, as the unified Axis against the Emperor calls itself, is the newly-formed Union House of The House of Dead Kings, The House of Void Cultists, and The House of Forbidden Knowledge. The three oldest and most venerated Houses, they have the upper hand in bringing more Houses to the Front and gaining the Moral high-ground, though their Ancient glory has much faded since their ages of Triumph...

The House of Imminent War and her Vassals, however, is the Emperor's House. They hold an unstoppable force of Advanced and Powerful ships, of which are exactly what he used to secure the Throne. They hold a Political and Military advantage, but Emperor Haram-Innil is no Iron Fist, and his weak Leadership maybe his downfall...

To War, For Glory!

How interesting... Any chance that someone might be neutral? My guys are interested in selling some stuff, as they always are.

LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR AND ETERNAL MAY HE REIGN!
Nation Full Name: The Heavenly Cult of Luminumbra
Leader: Grand Dietus Alphus Brei II
Tech Level*: Ft/FanT - Magiscience
Military Size: 130,000 Star-ships of varying combat roles.
Another 1,500,000 Ships & Starships in varying supply and support roles.
500,000 fighters, the majority of which are stationed in carrier starships and starbases.
Countless Ground Units, ready for deployment. 30,000 Transport ships. (This means that in the RP, we won't really ever have a problem sending initial deployments of ground units. But our defeat is not even dependent on ground losses anyways.)
50 Starbases
200 Defense Platforms/Watchtowers
1,000 Orbital Defense Platforms
1,300 Space Hangers (A network that is highly decentralized, hangers are smaller as a result, but the system of repairs is less vulnerable to setbacks)
15 Warp Gates

Military Budget: For 11 planets and 33 billion inhabitants, reasonably Q 3.3 Quadrillion (Q 1 = $0.70)
Economic Ships: 50,000 Heavy Freighters, 120,000 Medium Freighters, 300,000 Light Freighters, 600,000 Registered Private Cargo Ships. Around 30% of each are configured for a wartime situation.


I want to make a deal with you...

[IC]
Luminumbra wishes to fight for the Emperor, so long as his majesty agrees to a non-aggression pact and a contract of safety and stability near Luminumbran borders.

Luminumbra is plagued by pirate activities. Being a relatively sparsely populated interstellar empire in a part of the galaxy with so few stars, pirates are beginning to find Luminumbra to be a haven.

Should the Emperor succeed in this war, we will offer the Empire an outpost that we can protect, provided that this outpost is primarily dedicated to fighting pirates within Luminumbran Borders. Luminumbra is situated at the very edge of the galaxy, its surroundings mostly the vast reaches of intergalactic space; interrupted only by the occasional cluster or hyper-giant. As such, we believe we are in a prime location to be the gateway to other galaxies, and perhaps Eztobrughri wishes to be an intergalactic empire? One with unbridled access to neighboring galaxies? Our position means little in the way of debris and dust. And that entails a clear path between us and the wider local group.

All we ask is that you help us rid ourselves of raiders and pirates, and ensure safety and stability in and around Luminumbra. In return for this service, we will give you everything we mentioned above, and be a merciless ally that shoots first and asks later to quash these traitorous houses.

Of course, we will be watching your ships closely, but we are an honest people, and you should have nothing to worry about if Eztobrughri is an honest government as well.

Luminumbra hopes that this will be the beginning of a new alliance, and more beneficial deals can be made in the future.

I’m confused about this game. Are we playing as our own nations? Because everyone who has applied so far has applied as their own nations. Although I can’t see anything in the plot/description of the RP that states that we’re roleplaying as our own nations. Also, even if we are role playing as our own nations where do they fit into a roleplay that takes place in the far future? Can anyone explain this to me?

We are playing as our own nations here, somewhat by virtue of being in National & International Roleplaying, where we usually roleplay as our own nations, although that does not mean that we can't, as seen by some roleplays, although these usually real nations with our original ones in the mix. While there is nothing explicitly stating how our nations found out about this conflict, I'd wager it would be best not to question it. As for where any of us could fit in, someone could be from another universe or from some distant planet that somehow received news of the conflict.

by Multiversal Venn-Copard
REIGNITE THE ANCIENT FLAME OF GLORY!
Nation Full Name: the Venn-Copard Multiversal Republic ("VCMR")
Leader: De jure a secret council called High Command; de facto an eleven-dimensional Boltzmann Brain supercomputer called the Dimensional Core. Neither of these will be relevant due to the proportionally tiny events here; the strike force is instead led by one Subcommander Ebhuun-S12.
Tech Level: Exceptionally-far-future-tech, including routine multiversal travel, FTLi hardening, and partially degenerate-matter-based offensive and defensive systems.
Military Size: Effectively arbitrarily large in total. The strike force, however, sums to one full cruiser fleet (92 combat warships plus 125,500 drones) plus two assault cruisers. Backup is kept in the form of one battleship; no additional support whatsoever will be brought in unless a serious multiversal incident begins during the events.
Military Budget: Irrelevant due to post-scarcity nature. Effectively arbitrarily large.



Alright, here's a brief rundown of exactly what's going on.

The VCMR's involvement here is part of an ongoing game across the multiverse: a game of "topple the regime" involving progressively smaller and smaller fleets, to be precise. As part of an intricate political intrigue with its allies and rivals to test each others' abilities to maneuver local events into a defensively stable position for what appears to be a developing war against outside invaders, the multiversal civilization is actively interfering in the development of galactic-scale nations with as little of a material investment as possible.

The VCMR is known multiversally - at least, among the comparable powers that have experienced its military power directly - as a faction relying heavily on heavy application of offensive force at the expense of defensive technology. This engagement is essentially a practice run to see how this ideology can be merged with a more subtle information-warfare approach for interference in low-level civilizations.

I'll happily give more information on the spacecraft or technology in play if you need clarification. Just wanted to see if this is the kind of RP where I can bring in an extremely small but insanely technologically advanced fleet.

OOC: I was speaking OOC, but I do have ways to normalize an IC response. But here's the OOC application that I edited. MAKE SURE THAT YOU SNIP THIS POST WHEN YOU QUOTE IT BY REPLACING ALL OF THE TEXT WITH A WORD OR SHORTENED SUMMARY.
HEY I WANT TRADE!
Nation Full Name: The Demon Empire's Colony of Parfuhmerie
Leader: Sekka Verndara
Tech Level: Fantasy tech on par with future-tech (portals will be used to access this world)
Military Size: 100K service, 10M not directly usable but commanded by the larger Demon Empire. However, the military probably won't be used unless Parfuhmerie itself is attacked.
Military Budget: 400B NSD.
Goods available: Poison, perfume, assassin contracts, alchemical supplies, assorted goods from across the multiverse (FT weaponry, antique items, FT machinery, magical weaponry & devices, golems/dolls etc...)
OOC END.

Mildly Bewildered Response

Sekka Verndara
Parfuhmerie
Verndara Manor
10 Desyllians (maximum safety | OOC: Can only be read by the House of Gold & those they permit to read it)

To: Lakai Mas of The House of Gold

Apologies if you perceive me as brash or far too blunt, but I have never heard of a House of Gold, & I was surprised to so suddenly be contacted. However, thanks to a certain friend of mine, this surprise was short lived and I would like to say that — as I always am with just about any nation that exists and can be contacted — I am certainly interested in a trade route. However, the description of the conflict is unclear, and I am uncertain as to which side your House of Gold is on. However, based on its name, I am mildly expectant of your house being neutral, as being neutral is generally a successful way to make profits, until one's neutral rights are violated.

Still, I will certainly agree to a trade route on my end. Parfuhmerie offers a wide array of goods from across the whole of the multiverse, such as devices and weaponry from nations with monumental knowledge in magic and science, including golems, which are humanoids carved from materials that are then given life by magic; dolls, which are golems who were given a soul and thus are sapient; and robots, which of course uses computers for its artificial intelligence. On the less exotic side, we also sell perfumes and alchemical supplies, alchemy in our universe being the transmutation and conversion of materials and a field of research closely related to toxicology and chemistry.

There are a few more goods sold by us at Parfuhmerie, which I'm certain that your merchants will learn about later. They are dangerous goods, and I wold rather not have their knowledge be too widespread in foreign universes, especially with those I have only recently learned about. At least, not immediately, and not until I am more sure that I can have great trust and faith in new faces. Nonetheless, good business with you, and I hope that your nation shall flourish, or at least your house. I believe we may have an interesting future together.

This is set in a Universe alternate from Earth. Still, Eztobrughri exists in the Earth Year of 2022. Very near future. I advise only getting involved with rather advanced Future Tech, though.

OOC: I don't think I'll accept this simply because listing a Neutral Trader probably won't benefit anyone. If there's a specific side of the war you want to exclusively trade with, I'll put you on the Roster, but otherwise I think it's best to keep the discussion of Trade with Eztobrughri not as a specific part of this war. I hope you understand.

IC: "Wonderful. We'll initiate trade as soon as possible, and for the record, you are correct in thinking that we are completely neutral. War never turns a good profit. Anyways, it's probably best to pull this discussion away from the talkings of war. We'll be in touch soon."

OOC: Aight then. Parfuhmerie will definitely stay neutral, partially since they aren't interested in either side with the information they have, & partially since they don't see any point in risking their deliveries being attacked to trade with one side.
