Not your usual diplomatic visit (OOC), semiclosed, ATTN RouS

Postby Genomita » Thu Apr 11, 2013 3:02 pm

The Star Community has been a member of the Realm of unrestricted science for some time now. However, despite being open for anyone who cares to visit and diplomaticaly active there are still many misconceptions regarding it's citizens and culture. Therefore, the high council of Qaura has invited members of other nations from the realm to visit their habitats and experience them with their own eyes. This is the story of some of those who accepted the invitation.

Code: Select all
Name:
Species:
Age:
Gender: (if applicable)
Occupation:
Appearance:
Description:
Equipment and Augmentations:
Anything else:


And there you have it, an RP that will hopefully shed some light on my nation and it's quirks. But before we begin I'd like to hear your opinion on where this RP should take place:

The IC topic is now open! Have fun everybody ^_^ viewtopic.php?f=4&t=237080

-one of the planets inhabited by the genomitans?
-a genomitan terrarium (a asteroid that was hollowed out and terraformed on the inside)?
-or a bioship in one of the nomadic fleets?

Please only vote in this poll if you're planning to take part in the RP. Thank you ^_^ I will add my character(s) as soon as we have some idea where the RP will take place. You are also free to submit more than one character.

Please note that i will accept no more than 5-6 applicants for this RP, and three of those spaces are occupied by Frenequesta, new Amerik and The Tavan Race.

So far The Floor Kippers and The Tavan Race changed their vote to from planet toterrarium and from terrarium to bioship respectively, so currently the actual poll should look like this:

Planet: 2
Terrarium: 3
Bioship: 6 (yay ^_^)

Edit: Since we now know that the RP will happen on a bioship I'm now going to post my charas.

Name: Sekara Yimai
Species: Genomitan Small
Age: 27
Gender: hermaphrodite
Occupation: Envoy (equivalent of a diplomatic delegate)
Appearance: Sekara is a Small, a genomitan subspecies designed for life aboard Genómitan bioships and terraria that retains a childlike size. Standing at an unthreatening 4'11, Sekara has a slight, androgynous build, though with the proportions of a young adult rather than a child. Ze has rich chocolate-brown hair,fair skin and very light brown eyes that constantly seem to gleam with joy, especially if ze gets to meet new people or see new places. Sekara usually dresses in either in hir symbiosuit or hir envoy robes that display symbols of the various alien species ze has worked with.
Description: Sekara is very curious and adventurous, always ready to uproot hirself and visit new places, try out fancy new biomods or generally make new experiences. This, coupled with hir patience and desire to help others made the position of envoy a natural choice ofr hir. Like other genomitans ze is rather touchy-feely, unafraid to get close with people ze doesn't know and usually only abstaining from close contact if the other person cleary doesn't appreciate it.
Equipment and Augmentations: Aside from hir species' general mods ( four arms immunity to the long-term effects of microgravity, oxygen reserve, vacuum-sealable body, prehensile feet etc.) Sekara's senses have also been augmented to perceive spectra ze might have missed otherwise, both to generally experience the world and to aid in communication with other species. This is further augmented by hir symbiosuit, which has access to additional spectra and had it's larynx and mouth parts modified to enable Sekara to speak languages ze normally couldn't.
Anything else: Sekara's grandparents were envoys who were present when the Ksellian race divided into two factions over the question wether or not they should join forces with the Genomitans, which eventually ended with those opposing the rash vow of allegiance of their ruler being forced off-world by their loyalist brethren. Sekara often visits habitats of both loyalists and secessionist Ksellians in an attempt to bring the species together again. While hir attempts have been fruitless so far it has earned hir many friends on both sides of the species.

Name: Mukra
Species: Ksellian
Age: 42 in earth years
Gender: male
Occupation: Diplomat
Appearance: Mukra is pretty much your average Ksellian: roughly 5' from the tip of his snout to the end of his prehensile tail, with a slim, quadrupedal body with four long slender legs ending in four-toed prehensile feet and two arms with four-fingered star-shaped hands. His body is covered in fine scales in different tones of green to blend in with the leaves of his homeworld's trees. He has large,sideways-facing eyes with irises the same color as the scales on his head and a elongated pig-like snout. He generally eschews clothing of any sort unless specifically required and instead prefers to show off the elaborate tattoos denoting his position as a Ksellian diplomat.
Description: Ksellians are sometimes stereotyped as opportunistic and unwilling to trust others, and the eager vow of allegiance to the Genomitans by the Ksellian leader and the following schism certainly didn't help matters. Mukra has worked hard to counter the cliche by being an openminded and welcoming person willing to put his faith in others as long as they don't give him a good reason not to. When he and Sekara are together he usually serves as the "straight man" to Sekara's energetic personality, though he's also known to occasionally try to get a rise out of others with a sense of humor that partially stems from his species' dietary habits (they are omnivorous, though they prefer carrion over anything else) and partially out of being raised in a culture that reveres the cycle of life and death and his fascination at many species' abject fear of their eventual fate.
Equipment and Augmentations: Aside from his aforementioned evolutional advantages Mukra has also received the same pheromone glands as the Genomitans and retractable gliding membranes.
Anything else: Mukra has a serious sweet tooth. He always makes sure to check for local sweets when visiting other species and is known to bring back large supplies of foreign candies when he returns from his work.

Name: Eiri di Aneiwheri Sal
Species: Tavan
Age: 15 Tavan years, physically equivalent to a young human adult of 24-26.
Gender: (if applicable) Fairly masculine by tavan standards, extremely feminine by human ones. Her physical sex is female.
Occupation: Diplomat

Appearance: Her appearance is also masculine by tavan standards: frail and angular, and shorter than average at about one meter in height. Her skin is a fairly neutral shade of green, due to the blue rings around her scales being pale and faded, and her uppermost eyes are a dark magenta, like the color of red wine. Her eyes are fairly large in comparison to the rest of her skull, and though her skull has the telltale proportions of a female, it is nonetheless bony-looking and sharp like a male's. Her overall appearance is one of fragility. In the eyes of her fellows, she would be described as androgynous, extremely attractive to some but merely odd-looking to most.

Description: Eiri is well-known amongst her fellow diplomats for being shy and obsequious, even for a tavan. She is not as instinctively violent as many of her fellows, and is capable of shrugging off insults that would set another tavan into a rage. Her response to being smiled at is also unusually forgiving, which is why she is often chosen to conduct diplomacy with species known to do so regularly. However, she is prone to internalizing any anger she might otherwise have expressed, causing her to seem distant or depressed an unusual amount of the time. She is unusually introverted for her species and tends to get lost in thought frequently.

Equipment and Augmentations: She is decorated extensively, with black, thorny-looking tattoos covering her entire body, and with an abstract rendition of a sunrise wrought of titanium and permanently embedded into her skull. She is also one of the few tavans willing to be implanted with a permanent communications device, which is visually similar to the metal lines in her skull and runs the length of her right forearm. In terms of dress, Eiri prefers dark colors, navy blue being her favorite. She is known for not washing her scales with regularity, claiming she doesn't need to, and so gives off a slight aroma of saline tinged with ammonia. When visiting foreign countries, like all diplomats, she wears a black heating network under her clothing and a white mask for breathing and translation.

Anything else: Not that I can think of.

My vote is for bioship.

I probably should've mentioned this before, but I was too tired and forgot about it. I was hoping you would send charas other than diplomants (maybe not your "average joe", but someone who hasn't undergone formal training as a diplomat). Feel free to add more charas that fit that description, it will definetly make this game more interesting. Also, please think of this less as a diplomatic mission and more of a kind of cultural exchange, with your charas invited to live among the Genomitans for some time.

The Tavan Race: accepted! She looks fascinating and I'm looking forward to see her in action ^^

Hyrethraga: Your character could use some fleshing out, he seems somewhat average and could use some more personality. Also feel free to give him some nice gadgets. This is a FT RP after all ^_^

That's simply not feasible in our case. The international face of the Hegemony consists solely of trained diplomats for a reason: any tavan raised in our society could not function in another. Insult a tavan and it will, I repeat it will kill you without conscience or hesitation. Smile at it, you're also probably dead. They cannot handle being lied to even about small things, and so any communication with an alien will quickly break down if the alien is reliant on white lies as social grease. A tavan that has no formal training cannot understand the morality of another species, and cannot be made to feel remorseful for killing and eating a child after pretending to rape it for laughs. The reverse phenomenon is true as well: if a tavan were to see someone weeding their garden or stepping on an insect, it would flip out, and the culprit would be lucky to survive the encounter.

If a tavan were to travel to a foreign country without any form of diplomatic training, it would assume the worst and arm itself to the teeth. Tavan military technology is rather fearsome, and even if you could easily handle an enraged tavan trying to bite you, you might have more trouble handling an enraged tavan trying to manipulate the spacetime around your body in order to send you to the center of the nearest star, while laughing off everything up to and including attempts to do the same to it.

Long story short, your average tavan has a severe case of blue and orange morality, and is of comparable power to a Roman deity when properly prepared.

Oh, and thank you for your compliments regarding Eiri's personality. I have used her a few times before, so she's fairly well fleshed out as a character.

Fair enough. Luckily for the Tavans honesty is a big part of Genomitan society. In fact the 'noms have pheromone glands that allows them to share their emotional state and different kinds of messages and was originally designed as a way to foster honesty and compassion. it worked very well, and is both a very efficient way of communicating or placing messages for others and the origin of the rumour that genomitans are connected by a telepathic hive mind.

Also bonus points for knowing what blue and orange morality is.

Well, that will certainly make communication easier. Lying is difficult even for those trained to do it, so it will be a relief for Eiri to simply speak her mind.

Also bonus points for knowing what blue and orange morality is.


Hehe, once I heard that was a thing, I was like, so that's what that's called. It's one of my favorite phrases now.

Postby New Amerik » Fri Apr 12, 2013 10:50 am

Name: Dao K'zin My'itz, of the House of Dao
Species: Kruzk
Age: 20 in Earth years, equivalent to late 20s for a human.
Gender: Female 
Occupation: Amerikan Diplomat
AppearanceHer appearance is very similar to that of an Earth turkey-vulture, only bipedular and with graspsing gloves where wings would normally be. Standing at roughly 6'3 and weighing 142 pounds, her head is still clear of the feathers and her body free from the white streaks that indicate advanced maturity in kruzks. 
Description: Born in 2022 in the United States of America of the Planet Earth, Amerikverse, K'zin grew up with her extended family in the aftermath of the End War, growing to maturity in the rule of Emperor Vasquail of the Holy Technocracy of New Amerik. Before the destruction of the US, the House of Dao was very well off, and was primarily dealing in foreign oils from the blighted lands of the former Middle East - after the End War, however, the House of Dao fell from great power and was forced to reinvent themselves, choosing to rise again within the ranks of the Holy Technocracy as diplomats.

Like all fledglings of the House of Dao, K'zin My'itz has thus been groomed from birth for the role of diplomat, trained in both official and unofficial roles and responsibilities as a member of that station. Going through schooling, the training paid off, and she was officially inducted as an Imperial Division foreign diplomatic envoy in 2039, and has engaged in several successful missions since. 

Much like other Amerikan service people, her outwards personality depends on whether she is wearing the standard Amerikan governmental cloak and mask or not. The former indicates professionalism, the royal 'we', and the implicit understanding that the wearer is representing the wishes and viewpoint of the Technocracy. The latter reflects her individual personality: excited and congenial by Amerikan standards, she prefers to take an investigative view towards anything she finds interesting or noteworthy. Much like others of her nation, however, she does hold a somewhat manipulative and self-interested side whenever confronted by an obstacle.
Equipment and Augmentations: In terms of clothing, K'zin's formal outfit is a fitted Imperial Division's outfit - grey-black breathable overjacket and long pants with gold and silver lining, black fitted shoes and white talon gloves. Over the ensemble, she wears a cloak of dark and rich red, blue, and green plush velvet bordered in gold, the design dazzling and abstract. And, as with all officials of the Holy Technocracy, a custom-made, perfectly fitted face mask done in gold, brass, and with embedded rubies is worn on her face at all times. This is, mind you, the official uniform - all Amerikans working for the Imperial Divisions are to always be seen when performing their roles in this wear, with the only individuality allowed being the decoration of their cloak and mask. 

Other than that, of course, she retains the usual light equipment for Amerikan diplomats: one recording drone for documenting experiences, two stilettos hidden in her boots for emergency self-defense, and a small bag of surveillance bugs to add an extra layer of security to her quarters. In addition, Dao K'zin carries a Focuser wand in the event of needing to channel her Imagination in a long-ranged or streamlined manner with minimal disruption to metaphysical reality.
Anything else: Dao K'zin My'itz will be arriving via the Cherub-class kosmos spacevessel.

Amerikan diplomacy is a...tricky thing to handle out with non-diplomats, for them. For one, most of their non-diplomat or bureaucratic personnel who have the authority and will to travel to other universes wihtout being colonists are already keeping order on the newer colony worlds' settlements. For another, the Diplomat position refers specifically to those people who need to be taught how to adequately respond to NonAmerikans without pissing them off to the extent that it causes grief to our diplomatic standings. We have witnessed those without such training in our own past interactions - suffice to say, it is not as pleasant a culture exchange as one might think.

Should diplomatic standings with the Genomitans improve In the future, we may authorize less trained personnel to be allowed to emigrate or otherwise travel to said universe.

A warm welcome to Dao K'zin My'itz, I'm sure we will get along swimmingly ^^

The Floor Kippers: Again, I would like you to flesh the chara out a bit before I decide wether to approve her or not. So she is basically working as a diplomat to atone for the crimes she committed? That's a very responsible position, especially for someone who used to be a traitor to their nation. Did she have friends in high places who helped her get into this position, or did her social skills and will to start over help her to aqquire this position? And is she fully trusted by her colleagues or is she viewed with some suspicion by those who are aware of her past? So many questions...

I also reserve the right to act as a tie-breaker if we don't get a clear winner in the poll. To be honest I hope we'll end up on either the terrarium or the bioship. There are already plenty of RPs taking place on planets of some kind, but a RP taking place on a plant-based living ship? I'm fairly sure that hasn't been done before on NS. Just saying ^^

Yes, she is working as a diplomat to atone for her crimes, although it wasn't really her fault, she was corrupted by a Ancient evil Dragon Goddess in a plan for her own return.
Her position was granted to her by Sir Nigel Griffin, the Prime Minister who, under the encouragement of the now reformed Goddess, gave Mel a second chance by enrolling her on the Diplomats course allowing her a chance to prove her loyalty. While there is no real reason to doubt her, the reason for her corruption now reformed, there are still some who do not trust her, Her 'sister' Zoe for one.

The Corruption of Mel began in the 'Incubation Tanks', the computers where the minds of AI spend their 'childhood', with the Goddess, Known as Gallifrey, whispering promises of power into the 'ears' of the infant Mel. This affinity for the goddess continued beyond her transfer to a unit, or Body, and Mel became increasingly unhelpful and rebellious before vanishing entirely.

It turned out she had taken part in two kidnaps to gather the parts to help return the Goddess to The Floor Kippers. Not long after the Goddess' return Mel was killed by one of the group of Adventurers from The Floor Kippers and Warhaven, after which her body was taken back to the Ministry of Scientific Development and repaired.

The memories of her deeds still remained, which went against her uncorrupted personality and thus she requested to become a diplomat to work for the nation she had once wronged.

Name: Xxyhao (kuh shi a oh)

Species: Incendian (Read General info/Biology Section for apearance in detail)

Age: 250 (Young almost adolescent, human equivalent to 19-21)

Gender: Female

Occupation: Elect official of Incendia (1 of 12 in the entire species)

Appearance: Most elect stand 16 feet tall but can rear much higher. Xxyhao is one of the youngest, and smallest, elects to ever gain favor in the kings eye. She stands a mere 10 feet tall. She has little to no differences in her appearance aside from size. She is wearing and will wear the standard elect armor. These suits, with crests modeled after the Tavans, have temperature regulating functions to keep the subject alive and any cost. While they can be equipped to take on entire star-ships, Xxyhao has opted to arrive relatively unarmed. The armor is a very dark grey that comes from the tungsten rich composition. The Armor covers every inch of her body but has few rounded edges. It has a more plate like structure that reflects Indianian architecture.

Description: She thinks little of herself and less of others. She is the runt of the Elect and is often sent away on meaningless tasks by the other Elect. She is used to being viewed as a nuisance and prefers to avoid attention. She believes that the king was mistaken to choose her but she would never dream to question his judgement. She has unshakable love for her queen and will carry out any task in her name.

Equipment and Augmentations: Xxyhao, as mentioned, has an advanced suit of armor that protects her from the chill and heat of the world around her. It has a power source and a cooling mechanism that are quantum linked to a base in the outskirts of the territory of Incendia. It is equipped with a couple of low power lasers and long range FTL emergency Transmissions. Most of its offensive functions have been removed, so the wight of the suit leaves Xxyhao more mobile than usual but less lethal as well. It could be noted that she was mocked for trusting strangers not to take advantage of weakened state.

Anything else: You will likely never see Xxyhao's plumage but if you do i pray you do what you can to save her life.

Sounds rather interesting. She'd probably have trouble spreading her wings inside your avarage genomitan bioship since their interiors are somewhat cramped. However, since this kind of experiment wouldn't take place on some random bioship but likely one of the biggest ones this should be less of an issue, so feel free to vote for whatever you like.

*Insert stamp of approval here*

Only one space left, not counting the one reserved for Frenequesta.

And yes, please don't sap your fellow visitors. Thank you :)

I wish to change my vote from terrarium to bioship, so that there will be no possibility of planet being chosen once Frenequesta posts. Frankly it doesn't matter to me which one of the two gets picked, as long as it isn't boring old planet. Shame on whichever two people picked that one.

Also, Arcaanae, I'm pretty sure there aren't any slots left here. Frenequesta apparently has one reserved, and Costa took the last free one.

EDIT: And shame on whoever voted who isn't even in the RP at all! Maybe we should just vote by posting our preference on our character sheet....

That'll be a good idea because there might be people who just want to vote on any thing and not actually do this

I'm more inclined to give the last spot to Arcaane since he's new to the RoUS and because having a religious leader on a cultural exchange with a people who are quite casual in regards to which religion people pursue as long as it doesn't require sacrificing sapient creatures is kind of asking for a headache, both for the visitor and the people around him. However, I think I'll make my decision once Frenequesta joins in.

And yes, that's an excellent idea.

It seems only fair to ask if Costa is okay with that. After all, it seemed to me like you were doing this on a first come, first served basis, and Costa did post their character first. If they're not okay with losing their spot, it would probably be better to just let them both in, or set up a different RP that Arcaanae can be in.

Also, glad you guys like my idea. My character sheet has been edited accordingly.

I'm sorry if I sounded rude or arbitrary. Of course you can both take part in the RP. Just don't start preaching fire and brimstone (or your nation's equivalent) at everyone, okay XD

Aside from that, we are now officially closed for applications. Once Frenequesta joins in I will set up the IC topic
I use 80BF00 for native Genomitan,4040BF for Standard and BF80000 for Skav
