The continuing saga of the housemates from hell (some of them literally) WELCOME TO JOIN, SIGN UP AT THE OOC THREAD: http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?ns=1&f=31&t=235085 The background: This is a continuation for the occupants of the Building. It was founded by Dabfia and continues on as a legacy to his insane mind. IC Part I - The Beginning. IC Part Deux - New Building, Same Nonsense. IC Part III - Island Living for the Holidays. Part IV - Returned to Building, Oh My Gods! Part V - Five Golden Threads! (aka Oh My God... They're Breeding!) Original OOC thread - Locked. Your behind-the-scenes glace at further insanity. OOC thread Part II - Locked. OOC Thread Part III - Locked. To join: visit the OOC thread and submit an app. Someone will come along shortly to approve you (or laugh hysterically at your attempt to join). The Building Rules: We have rules? Well, only a few. They're guidelines, really...
We're a fun group that accepts new players all the time. We also have our own Region. The Apartment Block is a 100% active region with an active Founder and WA Regional Delegate, a brand new off-site forum that's dedicated to role-playing, and friendly . You must be a member of our Region to partake in the off-site forum. Our Region does accept *ACTIVE* puppet nations for that purpose. Click on the icon below for more information. Attention Players! The city was destroyed by Drones. We have relocated to the Templar Homeworld for a mini-vacation. There are NO PCs or NPCs remaining in the old city location. Period. Players who were NOT online after the invasion, your characters were moved to the safe haven and then put on the ship for the Gliese journey. We are moving to this setting shortly while the city is rebuilt by the OP. ALL characters need to be there or be out of circulation during the rebuild. Period. The Planet: Gliese 581 is the Germanic Templars home world. It's set in a future timeline and not in the same solar system, obviously. The Setting: Now then, all of the rooms are the same, however, you can customize them and stuff and all of that good jazz... Anyway, here are the places: Throne Room Equivalent of the Lobby, where you would enter with a throne in it. Did I mention there was a throne in it? Stay off the Emperor's Thinking Bench. Library Located off to the right of the Throne room. Specifically past the first door on your right. Books vary between old paper and leather back to modern pads that read the book to you (now your child too can read and listen to Shakespeare's Macbeth). By the way, it's a huge library with tower stairs leading up to the second floor as well as a balcony that over looks the lower part of the library. Palace Dining Room Not much other than it's a huge frikken dining room with plenty to sit. On the left side of the building (Assuming if you were looking at it from the front). Recreational area In the back of the building. Includes a dojo and from there, it breaks off into a pool/spa area off to the left, weight room to the right, and Virtual Simulation room directly across the dojo. Living area Right side of the building where there are a labyrinth of hallways and rooms. Strip The place that is two miles long and lays out front of the palace pass it's walls. With it are a Ch'as, a few kiosks and stores, and directly across is a parking garage for air vehicles. Side note Doors are automatic unless locked. Lights tend to come on down the hallway or room you enter, and kitchen is pretty much off limits since food is either brought to your room or to the dining room (And by food I do not mean the people bringing it). In the far back of the building there is a nice garden. Getting There: CRUISE! Yeah baby! You're taking a ship through time. Players who are NOT online when the ship leaves... we can either say your characters boarded the ship, or Minerva or Klaus or Swith can bring you to Gliese 581. I'd rather not have to ferry people. Do I hafta go?: This is optional. You don't have to leave. However, I won't be RPing the rebuild. It's too much. Your characters won't have anything to do because they're stuck behind Ogoti's forcefield and can't leave. You have a tent. You have a chow hall. There aren't any ponds, you can't touch the ocean because it's polluted at the moment, there isn't any tv or radios, you can't hunt cultists for souls/blood/entertainment (they'll kill you) and you're surrounded by nasty things which will eat you even if you could leave the forcefield... and the sun sometimes shines. It has all the fun of a concentration camp minus gas chambers and furnaces. Seriously. Staying will NOT give you a leg up on anything. We'll be there a week minimum. Possibly longer if you guys are having a ton of fun. The Background: Gliese 581 is the Templar's home world. Thriller is their emperor. The people know him in his mech suit form. He has a fully-fleshed planet, meaning the player has taken the time to set up culture, areas for fun or industry or various religions whatever. The Rules: 1) No tech stealing. You can ask to trade tech. GT has to agree to it. 2) Absolutely respect the property of the nation. 3) ASK GT before doing something that can change Germanic Templar canon. 4) Big one... it's a future setting on a planet far away. No bringing in militaries, extra characters etc. 5) GT functions as a Co-OP while players are on his planet. His decisions on what can or can't be done must be followed. He has the right to ask people to REDACT if they do something that violates his canon, culture or concept. These rules apply to all future trips to other nations. Ask OOC if you're not sure about an action. I expect the same respect given to Bran when he lets us visit his nation, and to Torsi when we visit his, etc.
