What question do you want to ask AU?

[Cavirfi]

How did you make the Athearan dialect aside from the basic formations like base language and phonology?

Is YN based on a real life culture? If so, what is it?

Nope, it's not based on any real life culture. However, German culture is prolly the closest

What is the weirdest thing you have seen in someone else’s home?

[Alliance of Self-Defensive Territories]

1. Is there a reason for the 632 year gap between Orell and Paraskeve?
2. On the Kusarigama, other than perhaps rule of cool, why did Diarcesia make them?
3. Is Wolfrick pronounced Wol-Frick, Wolf-Frick, or Wolf-Rick?

I'm typically always working on something, but at varying speeds, so the answer is I am technically doing so right as we speak.

anyways, no u

Are you starting to get annoyed that I am always the one asking you a question?

Why do you use NStats population, knowing that it grows at an unrealistic rate?

[Kiu Ghesik]

so, why precisely did nacrad choose to get involved in nc's war in the first place, besides hawkish interventionism? how do you feel about the nation's ooc reputation as being a bit of a warmonger?

[Valentine Z]

- I feel like I have asked this before, but here it is again! Does Ari have a fondness for pets? What kind, exactly?

- If you have to use NS stats, or can boost one stats, which would you boost (or tank) and as to why? Like me bringing Charmlessness down as hard as I can.

- Does your people bless their standards or flags with magic and incantations before a battle, if the such a magical thing exists?

1) Did you make your nation as a result of a lot of AI being antagonistic in science fiction after a disaster or nuclear war?
A1) Ahh, not really, actually. My apocalypse setting for Valentine Z does not have any relation to AIs going crazy. It's not because it's a bad premise, but I just wanted to work on the idea that it would be us as people who will take a nuclear war too far and thus, the inevitable destruction that might have actually killed the entire planet.

2) Out of the impressive roster that you have, who is your favorite character?
A2) Definitely Exuberant Superintendent T-2000/2904-3 Surveillant Clarissa Alanis Star Breya « La Amoureux Chéri » Millie Taissa Butterfly Mélody Coraline Jolijn Trini Clementine Hollie Samantha Zeta Harumi. I even made a specs sheet for her computational parts! ♥ That, and she is the very, very first character with a lot of substance, and has my heart and soul put into it in a figurative way as dedication to what makes my childhood - a garden home. Then came Holly Aceline “De Stralend en Wonderbaarlijk Licht Koningin Van Haar Mooie Universum” Aurora Symantha Vreugde Astrid Lavender Lexis Lilac Harmony Tsi. Marlie Nova Radiant Lapia Starlight, so yeh, these two!

3) Sorry if you've said this before and I didn't catch up, but do you have a cat or cats IRL?
A3) In Burma, yes! Here in Singapore.... does my cat plush count? Yeah, I don't have cats here in Singapore, sadly. Maybe when I have my own home. Not that my parents didn't allow, but alas, allergy to cat hair (and just cleaning the cat hair) can be a chore.

1) yep, she's a dog person all the way. while the breed isn't precisely worked out, it'd likely be some sort of sheepdog or cattle-dog, so think of her dogs as some variety of these good boyes, leaning towards the second because floomf even if it's the most bred of the three. she isn't opposed to cats, before you ask; she just has no need of them.

2) I'd probably put religiousness and welfare both up high. religiousness is more often than not conflated with conservatism in stat changes, and while this is more or less true, Ghesite conservatism isn't a modern kind of conservatism. welfare is not conflated with conservatism in how stats work rn, and since I can't redefine what over 1200 issues consider is conservative or not, I've had to struggle to get both of those stats moderately high.

3) nope, they don't. their standards are more or less "colorful flag to indicate where a formation is" and are rarely embroidered; as a result they don't really bother with blessing them. associated symbols are blessed, however, most often with mare's blood.

Because, I CAN.

Also, not using it feels like a waste of coding on Max Barry's behalf

@Las Palmeras

Have you ever thought of mixing anime neko girl and anime misogynist guy on your flag, rather than having either one?

[Las Palmeras]

Yes. Because the catgirl used to be a maid holding a tray. And Jigen is drinking a cup. Would be funny if orchestrated right.

[Khoronzon]

I see you're taking the NS stats approach to population, with your nation's concept basically being perfect for adapting NS population into lore - which I'm guessing is the reason why you went with it. How do you expect your nation will change once it reaches, say, a few hundred million people? What about a billion or more? Do you intend to keep going along with NS population as it keeps growing, or are you going to stop at some point?

[Cynetia]

How did you come up with that cool name?

To the below nation: Nope, this is my first time.

I will keep going, I will reap the meta benefits of staying long enough. I will only stop once I'm declared "Antiquity" so expect me to do this for years.

AN: Have you been on NS before your current nation?

[Novia Xeneia]

Is there a specific meaning behind your Nation's name?

[FenexOrg]

Is the Imperial Front going to launch a coup? The whole secrecy around them seems to suggest something sus.

Q1: Have you ever tried to write an older character only to find yourself stumped beyond their mid-teenage years and unable to progress?
A1: I have never tried to write an older character. I mean, I do have ideas for older characters in my head, but I have never put them down on pen and paper so I cannot really judge if I am capable of that or not. While I do have some form of coherent personal history for them, I also feel like there may be gaps if I do write them down.

Q2: What is Prometheum? It seems pretty central to FenexOrg, but as far as I can tell there isn't anything in the factbook that actually talks about the substance itself, only some of its applications and the fact that it's used and extracted by them.
A2: This is a hard one. The way I envision prometheum being is that it is what allowed the creator deity themselves to create the FenexOrg universe in the first place. Think of it as more of parts of the primordial code of the universe or a factbook than an energy source. These fragments of creation would then be weaved and otherwise manipulated to provide desirable effects and commodities. I will admit, I haven't put as much thought into this as I probably should. I kinda just wanted an energy source that is not only sufficient for a long-term post-scarcity civilization but also enough to challenge a literal God while also having that essence of scarcity and necessity to it. As for a factbook, I should really write that before writing down the cuisine, shouldn't I? But on the other hand, fud is yummy.

[Khoronzon]

Have you ever tried to write an older character only to find yourself stumped beyond their mid-teenage years and unable to progress? I'm asking because it seems to keep happening to me over and over again and I'm not really sure why, and given that all your characters that I've seen are under 20 I figured that if there's anyone on NS who can relate to my suffering, it'd probably be you.

Also, my apologies if you've answered this before, but what is Prometheum? It seems pretty central to FenexOrg, but as far as I can tell there isn't anything in the factbook that actually talks about the substance itself, only some of its applications and the fact that it's used and extracted by them.

How did you come up with that cool name?

See here. I honestly really wish I could change it at times, it's uncreative to the point of making me ashamed whenever I actively give thought to the matter, but people associate the name with me too much at this point for me to really do so even if NS allowed it. If I end up turning my NS worldbuilding stuff into a more "serious" off-site project, though, I'll probably redo the name then.

Nope as of now it doesn't look like it

[The Dodo Republic]

Do you genuinely enjoy the look of Dodos, or did you just choose them because of their unique status as a well known, relatively recent, but still totally extinct animal?

I like dodos yes. However my nation is based off of ARK survival evolved (A survival game with prehistoric creatures including dodos.) I just found that the dodo (At least on ark) repersents everything about what my nation thinks of itself, underappreciated, resilent, peaceful.

1) a formatting question, but are you aware of a way to nest a table within a sidebar within a table? i'd kind of like to try it for some other formatting stuff, since right now i've got some issues with being able to indent all my text without horribly breaking my information sidebars, and i don't want to ditch them in favor of something more like what you or rein did as an improvised version of the sidebar since i feel like it'd be plagiarizing the idea and i don't entirely want to give it up- i just have no clue as to what an alt fix might be.
2) legitimate question, given that khoronzon's culture is what it is, uh... does wholesome 100 mind-flayer society looking to consume the world and plunge it into eternal darkness and edgy angst say trans valid? i mean, i'd think so, since "loose-to-nonexistent gender norms" seems like it'd imply that, but at the same time it aesthetically feels off and the whole "vatborn" and "engineered society" stuff might seriously go against the concept. yes i ask because of the "he supports lgbt rights. wholesome chungus 100 now your progressive liberal self-insert leader has to like him" line. i get it's a joke. obsessing over jokes is my thing.
3) should i be scared of what i have inspired?

[Brettenwald]

I might have asked you this before so I'm sorry if this is a repeat, but have you ever thought of RPing as the Berghi on an alt account?

[Wink Wonk We Like Stonks]

1.how angry does it make you when people take the quote out of context
1a.thoughts on israel vs palestine: culture war II
2. how do you make a nice memorable flag that's fairly simple
3.i'd just like to say i am a huge fan of the website in your profile

why is the based green square-based? is it because it has femboys?

1. I dislike corporation/government telling me what to do, fucking the entire biosphere over and generalally lording over the populace, as well as getting mcnuked for violating the nap.
i do like fully automated luxury gay space communism, but more realistically semi-automated decent surface mutualism, which i put in the ideological blender to make agender mars-colony automated decadent libertarian anti-statist degrowth.

i put an immense amount of time ignore the timestamp and effort into spelling out "a madlad" with my political views.

2.i am of the belief that femboys can be present in every square but the blue one, but that the green square has the best ones.
