You Are Invited

Greetings,

You are hereby invited to the coming marriage of the Grand Dietus Alphus Brei II of the Heavenly Cult of Luminumbra, Aged 42, and his faithful bride, Prime Minister Vera Yudina, Aged 39, of The Empire of Constarus. The wedding shall take place in the Royal Marriage Hall of the Imperial Palace on Luminumbra Prime, the Rainbow-colored capital planet of Luminumbra. This will be a wedding of mixed traditions between Luminumbra and Constarus. There will be extravagant displays of entertainment, exotic foods and the best wines in the galaxy--grown right here in the palace itself. Afterwards there will be an Aynanist & Luminist Sermon for those of whom follow the faiths. We request that bright colors not be worn to respect the Aynanist Religion. We are proud of this occasion and wish to have you join us in the merriment. Those who come from nations that do not have the technology to travel throughout the galaxy will be afforded private luxury transportation, on behalf of the Luminumbran State. This will also be the first public appearance of the Grand Dietus without his mask. We hope to see you there. --Lodate gli dei--

P.S. Please read the rules at the botom. Applications for the wedding are between the pictures.

Anything from Pledging loyalty to duels of honor.

They often represent badges of office as well. In the Sub Sector non nobles and regular civilians are not permitted most types of blades and firearms. They are limited to simple auto guns or regular swords,axes,bayonets. Unless they are in military service. Also being that a large amount of treasure is being brought as a wedding present all of the persons transporting it are charged to protect it. Failure to do so would not only disgrace them but dishonor the whole nation. That's why even such a simple diplomatic gesture has had two Astartes assigned to personally watch over the wedding present.

The powered weapons as well as the level of armement serves as a status symbol as well as a symbol of responsibility. Whereas normal soldiers are only allowed issued weapons which, ultimately, must be surrended upon command(because their authority derives from their commander) . The Other Members of the entourage are allowed to posses and hone their skill with their own weapons as free men they and they alone are accountable for their actions.

Accepted. We look forward to their presence.

By the way everyone, the IC Thread will be going up this Wednesday, two days from now, after my Finals and after Constarus gets back near a computer.

Accepted. You will not have to relinquish your arms until you reach the palace gates. We will welcome the gift graciously and look forward to the Chairwoman, Commander and Mistress's arrival. We will send our most luxurious private travel spaceship with mahogany interiors to pick your people up right outside the gates of your Presidential Palace. Once you board the small ship, your favorite meals with taste testers will have been prepared and ready for you. We will have a special luxury compartment for the Lynx as well.

The distance you will be travelling is about 87,000 Light years to the edge of the galaxy on the other side. The travel time will be about 1 hour.

Thanks again.

My apologies folks. But I had really really tough day today. You know how in the movies where a protagonist loses his job, his wife leaves him and suddenly a bunch of new pressures build up in his life, all in one day? Yeah. Today was like that for me. Obviously different stuff happened to me (I'm not married lol), but nonetheless it might as well have been part of a movie and it was almost on that level. Likely the toughest day I've had in years.

This was next level sh*t that just popped up into my life out of the blue. I'm sorry if I wasn't able to get it up and running tonight.

I'm exhausted and I will have the RP up by tomorrow on Thursday or Friday at the latest. Maybe I can get Constarus to help me. Thanks again for your patience.

Thanks m80, I appreciate it.

I've asked constarus to start the RP instead in the meantime.

Agreed! Don't worry about it man. Hope things look up soon.

Hi all -- sorry for the delay. I'm working on the opening post here and it's taking me a lot longer than I had anticipated. Will let you all know when it's up.

Nation Name: Danceria, (The United Kingdoms of)
Who is Attending: King Aceus Elurion, Lord-Chancellor Snow Villiers and Lady Serah Villiers
How should we address them?: His Majesty, His Grace, Lord Elurion (For Aceus); Lord-Chancellor, Lord Villiers, Chancellor Villiers (for Snow) Lady Villiers (Serah)
Will they require transportation?: Yes
How many security guards will you bring?: Fourteen, or eight, whichever is permissible.
If they wish to bring weapons, for what purpose?: The entourage will be bearing short-swords, or fists for defense. Again, depending on permissibility.
Concerns or Comments? Danceria is a PMT nation, with possible FanT sprinklings (depending on how much is permitted), as such the spaceships are...garish no doubt compared to the fleet of Luminumbra and Constarus. It gets the job done, but the scientists are no doubt internally screaming. It would be like comparing a Model T to a Jaguar in terms of cars.

Dancerian custom demands that Aceus delivers a gift to Their Majesties, would they be willing to accept a handmade lute, dining set of green cypruswood (complete with china dining ware). It is simply a rustic tradition that Serah and the close friends of His Majesty insisted that be presented to the powers that be in the galaxy.

Accepted. No need to worry about the fleets. Constarus is a PMT nation too

and we would love the gifts. The lute would actually likely put to use, as oppose to being stored in a glass case. We already have a lyre that plays in our throne room to the sound of a waterfall, and below the metallic apartments, towards the lower levels of the platforms circling our gas giants, we have cobblestone alleyways, and timberframed houses. It's all good muh mayne. We look forward to seeing His Majesty and company at the wedding.

Concerns or Comments?
A gift has been organised for the couple, a symbolic gift rather than a practical one. It consists of two metallic materials in a horizontal hourglass-like structure, when the switch is activated it turns it vertical and the reaction between the two materials produces a light alternating between red and yellow randomly.

By the way guys. I've asked one of the RPers in the war Luminumbra is fighting to "take part" in this wedding. I just wanted to let you guys know to plan ahead. I won't tell you when or who it will be or exactly what will happen. Just that something is going to happen at this wedding

I figured a (not so much anymore) surprise RP crossover would be pretty cool and make things exciting.

I'll have a post up in a few days, give or take 48 hours.
