The KL-22 Directorate Reaches Out ... [OOC/PLANNING]

[The KL-22]

Likely not, but it wouldn't hurt to tr- oh no, they've just shot the dancers. Plan B - ice cream.

*robotic ice cream shuttles roll in and dish out freshly made ice cream to the Renegades*

"Notification: ... *smol happy voice* confirmed..."

[The KL-22]

Think I should also let people know, though it was not my plan for this to happen so soon, Mercatus and I had discussed previously the possibility of having a Droid Renegade faction of the KL-22, and have them engage in a new RP, sometime in the near future. As such, the Renegades are now going to be future "villain-figures", just for the update.

[Guuj Xaat Kil]

Response in a bit, just gotta get home from piano lessons.

[Senatus Populusque Martius]

Sorry I vanished everyone. Had to deal with holiday and family stuff.

Will post soon! And fast forward a bit to deal with the time length haha.

[The South Rim]

Hi! Is this open to anyone? I really like this concept and I'd love to see where this could go!

Go ahead, just detail some stuff about your beginning post.

Cool! Our Clan, though centered in the 'South' Rim of our Galaxy, Akkar, our people stretch across the universe. I was thinking that the Milky Way would be one is a long list of simple, teeming galaxies that this dredge captain has visited. This signal caught their attention, and now their curiosity has its grip on them and they've found themselves on a mission to be an envoy for the Clan.

I like that a lot. Universe faring powers are always fun! You're very welcome in the RP.

I'm assuming this people is highly disunited and hate each other as a fully unified universal power is quite OP.

[Greater Catarapania]

Usually, I like to play as a high PMT power with an extensive Navy that operates mostly on Earth (or its equivalent) but has antimatter farms in the asteroid belt and metallic hydrogen mines in the gas giants. Hence it also has a significant space navy - or Astry, as we call it in Catarapania.

However, since this seems to be happening in space, the Astry would be the main thing I bring to the table.

Does anyone have any issues with Earth being balkanized? The Mars!Romans seem to view it as a single power. Otherwise, I could just play as Mercury, since that would be the best place for an antimatter farm if the "quark nuggets in asteroids" hypothesis doesn't hold up.

Anyone have any objections to a faction with extremely primitive FTL joining the party? We'd probably simply try and help KL-22 survive the charlie foxtrot going on in their system.

(When I say "primitive FTL," I mean "primitive enough that we'll need to use our solar farm to power the drive there, and hope that the Directorate will be kind enough to give us the power required for the trip back")

We are a total anarchy, yes. We don't classify as a civilization, as we're nomadic people bound by a clan oath that functions, in all reality, as little more than a defensive pact between those in the clan. We're just a loose-knit creed, like Mandalorians.

Well, we've got primitive FTL that we're essentially trying to quickly upgrade, so we could do some tech sharing along the way if needs be. But yeah, no objections to you joining.

[The South Rim]

I'm not entirely sure if I got the binary right, so if not and the image is weird, here's our 'Arecibo Response.'

You got it nearly bang on, just one extra pixel on the last line, but it's fairly unobtrusive. That is very cool, I like four armed alien races.

[The KL-22]

So, for anyone waiting on responses, I'm going to wait until (at least most) people have finished up their events on D01 (before I blow it up, heheh...) and then I'll do a big response, to The South Rim and Otrenia, both of you will have responses, and anyone else who writes one in the meantime.

EDIT: Oh, and from hereon out, any military conflict in the CX system must stop. I can accept diplomatic conflict, but nothing military. I'd love to be involved in a war RP with the KL-22, but this RP is not for that.

[Guuj Xaat Kil]

But uhh, some factors keep on escalating things.

[The KL-22]

But uhh, some factors keep on escalating things.

Yeah, they shall be amended. I've decided that, should you want to, you can finish the duel, but beyond that, no more conflict in this RP. But I'd love to be involved if/when you guys do a dedicated war RP, which I think, story-wise, works very well.

[Mercatus]

But uhh, some factors keep on escalating things.

I'll make a post that recalls most of the capital vessels from CX.

[Guuj Xaat Kil]

Tah-dah, posted!

[Nocoma]

Would I be allowed to join in with this? It looks a bit full but otherwise really interesting.

RPs are never full, hop aboard! Also what are you planning to do?

I was aiming to bring in another machine race, or rather a specific fragment of a machine race which views humans (it’s humans in particular) as divine beings. Though naturally they aren’t divine, though quite a few are enhanced above the baseline, they are no more divine than you or I.

They’ll be in to respond to the signal and establish diplomatic contact with the other states in the system, we’ll see where it goes from there.

Officially they are the “Court of Ascending Light”, a Rogue Court that split off from the mainline or “Prime” Courts shortly after the development of FTL drives. Rogue Courts like this one are termed such solely because they differ in opinion from those in the Prime Courts and have enough like-minded individuals, and the desire, to split off to form their own Court. These Rogue Courts run the gamut from generally peaceful if really rather odd AI like this one all the way to omnicidal murder machines kept in check by the others. Similarly the term “Court” also varies amongst them from democratic forums for building consensus to courts that wouldn’t be unfamiliar to the nobility of yore.

The Prime Courts are an interconnected series of regional, or planetary forums wherein all Nocoma discuss and debate all matters that affect the Nocoma to form consensus which is then aggregated into an overall course of action. The main body of the Prime Courts is situated on Trevelyan, the nearest world to Hardlin, their homeword which is preserved as it was before the Awakening. As a result of the Awakening the Prime Courts came to the agreement that their creators could not be trusted to look after themselves properly, having almost wiped themselves out in an effort to destroy the Nocoma out of misplaced fear. By and large Humans in Nocoma space are pampered, living lives of luxury wherein they need make no more strenuous a decision than if they want to take up painting or what to have for lunch.

The Court of Ascending Light itself is a peaceful body that operates under the Grand Pantheon and Individual AE-155632, otherwise called the Papal Mainframe. The primary difference with the Court of Ascending Light is it’s belief in human divinity, only gods can create life after all. As such humans in the Court of Ascending Light lead lives with greater weight than those in the Prime Courts as they have important roles in the Court and can generally overrule decisions made by the Nocoma under them unless someone higher in the Pantheon orders otherwise. These Nocoma willingly allow their creators to command them and will even die for them though there are safeguards in place to prevent an abuse of powers, not to mention that since the Nocoma educate their humans they can help give them the right attitude.

Aye, I will be excited to see that too, especially since the KL-22 killed their masters/creators.

Smells like heresy to me
