Another Day, A New Reich

[Hathradic States]

Die Grosse Efseben Reich

Motto: One Forum, Under Hath, Indestructible, With Hatred and Injustice For All

OOC: This is more or less a crossover between NS, WWII, and Fallout. The tech is schitzo with WWII firearms, modern armor and aircraft, WWII home life tech, modern uniforms, and a dash of magic thrown in.

Long ago, in the days before the Wombat, before TET, before 2012, their was one Empire. One Nation. It was a mighty nation, built from the sweat and constant typing of a few who had visions of Greatness. This nation was the First Efseven Empire, which lasted for over two months, which in internet time is like twenty years. Sadly, it fell to war and heartache, and died in the ashes of a great defeat.

Then, a few months later (so, like, 40 years), another Reich arose, led by the same guy who ran the first one (by this point, he was, like, totally 100 internet years old). His new Empire grew, and was at least twice the size of the Previous one. Then, it fell due to internal strife, and the guy owning it having a sudden increase in work.

Now, yet again from the ashes, a new, THIRD REICH (oh God, didn't see this coming) has arisen, with more genocide than the past two, but less asshatry, and better uniforms. This time, without the pussy shit of the other two.

This is the thread about stuff going on in that Reich, from the Reich's forces engaged on the border, to people sitting in the Reichstag's bar having schnapps and bitching about not having cable.

(OOC: Basically, war it up and booze it up. A little break from the Wombat is good. Always open to suggestions on how to improve the OP)

It was the middle of the night, and the Empress could not sleep. There was so much on her mind, so much that had to be done. Even if she had been able to fall asleep, it would have been filled with nightmares.

As silent as a wraith, she slipped out of bed and stalked downstairs. Though it was complete darkness, she navigated quite easily. She went straight to the bar and rummaged around for a new, unopened bottle of vodka. She sighed in relief and opened it, taking three long gulps. She then trudged off to plop down in a comfy chair to finish the bottle off.

Hath's shaggy hair hung around his face as he awoke, rather late. He had, once again, fallen asleep in the stables, one of his horses leaning over him, looking down at him.

"I'm going, I'm going," Hath mumbled as he stood up and staggered his way into his first Castle.

[Eliasonia]

Eli woke with a start after he felt himself slide off of the branch he was perched upon. As he hit the forest floor with a thud, a string of muffled expletives left his mouth.
"Goddammit, just want to get through the night. Too much to ask?" he grunted to himself as he slowly rose to his feet. He reached around for his rifle and found it propped on the trunk where he left it. He had been in the wilderness for almost a week now, dodging the occasional cross border raiding party and scavenging what he could for food. A thick layer of stubble and dirt now covered his face, and his black mohawked hair looked more like a bad accident than a haircut. Rifle in hand, he began to move further north through the dense forest, hoping that he'd finally find a friendly face among the trees.

[Arcturus Novus]

Heil der Hathenfurher.

[Hathradic States]

Several squads of stormtroopers began to go from the Castle of Taltos, their target the city of Efseven, which lay a few miles to the South.

[Eliasonia]

Eli continued to wander the forest. He had been on the move for some time before he heard the sound of boots crashing into the ground to his left. Unsure of what to expect, he took up position in a dense patch of foliage just off of the main path and waited, rifle loaded and ready.

[Toronina]

Toro was sleeping in the bar he kinda owned since he kinda lead them since Gav did not come to it when he magically found himself in a diffrent placeamajig, 'What in the actual **** just happend'

Romeo di Auditori von Taltos walked with his squad when he heard a crash in the forest, just a bit off of the main path. The young man sniffed about, his senses heightened by the magic blood of his father.

"Uncle Eli, is that you?" he called into the forest, looking where he thought Eli to be.

Hath walked into the Castle, and saw the Empress sitting in a large chair, he mocked a bow and said, "And how are you today, my darling?"

She watched her husband approach and a sly smile crossed her lips. "Oh, well, you know, a bit drunk." She waggled the empty bottle as proof, then said, "But otherwise fine. Yourself?"

Hath undid his shirt to reveal a fresh stab wound in his chest, and lifted the back of it up to show where a horse had kicked him, "You know, the usual."

She surveyed his injuries with a scrutinizing eye, and deemed them to not be too severe. She nodded, "Ja. Why were you sleeping in the stables again? You know there's a bed for you...With me in it."

"Well, I finished riding Augustus with my son, I sent Vlad off to go get some sleep and I stayed and made sure Augustus was good, you know, clean coat, plenty of oats," Hath began, taking off his bloodstained shirt and throwing it in the fireplace, "When some ballsy fuck decided to put a knife in me. I passed out in the stables and didn't come to until this morning."

"Ahhhh." She replied, now understanding the situation. "Dontcha hate when that happens?" She stood up and went back to where she got her bottle of vodka, and grabbed another. Ericka brought it over to Hath, and held it out. "At least you didn't get too terrible of a stab wound, eh?" Then she kissed his cheek.

Hath put one arm around his wife and returned the kiss, before gesturing that he didn't want the vodka, "I'm supposed to work with Eli when he gets back. Wouldn't do for me to plan an invasion drunk, would it, baby?"

As Hath button his shirt, he paused and bit his lip, "I believe it was the Khanese this time. They've been jumpy ever since we took Dummeldorf."

She shrugged lightly before opening it and taking a drink for herself. "No, probably not. Which is why I should stop now so I can help, too." Her eyes narrowed at the mention of the Khanese. "Oh. Them." She said with obvious disdain.

"We had another shoot out with their boarder patrols not too long ago," Hath said, tucking his shirt into his trousers before pulling a jacket out of his closet, "No doubt, they think I ordered it. And, for once, they are correct."

"Right." She agreed. "I actually knew that." She set her bottle of vodka on the counter before going to her own closet to get dressed.

When Hath finished dressing, he looked out of the window, into the courtyard. It was still damaged from when he retook his Castle, cratered and charred. A long flag fluttered in the breeze, its black field complementing the depressing feel of Hath's stronghold. Men and women slept in the courtyard, many of them sleeping on their own hats, using their jackets for warmth. It was not how Hath had envisioned his rise to power, but it was better than no progress.

Ericka sat on their bed and looked knowingly at him. As if she could read his mind-she couldn't, but being so similar to him, could guess his thoughts-said, "Things will get better, my love. This is another fresh start for you. For us."

"Hopefully, it works," Hath said, reaching into his pocket and pulling out his pipe, "If not, then hanging will be the least I can hope for."

She made a soft sound, much like, "Heh." There was silence for a time before she broke it with, "I love you."

The edges of hers curled upwards into a smile of her own. Just as this was happening, a large black cat came sauntering in and lazily made it's way to her, stopping just out of the Empress' reach. "Loki," she said lovingly, "Come here." The cat's ears twitched forward in recognition of his name, but he made no move except to clean his paw. Ericka drummed her fingers on her leg, and called him once more, and this time, he approached and rubbed against her hand. A low, rumbling purr came from him.
