| What is New Hyperion? New Hyperion (NH) is a region of NationStates. It is an empire built on the principles of Hyperionism, our guiding philosophy. Great! How do I sign up? Hold on there, buddy, you haven't even registered yet! You'll have to scroll up (or just click here) and take care of that first. After that, take a look at those four forums at the top of the list. The Low Orbit Welcome Wagon is where you can apply for Plebeianship and introduce yourself. You can undergo Patricianship if you're interested in leadership. For everything else, go to Imperial Service. What if I'm a diplomat? Go to the Immigration Desk instead, and we'll get you masked. What's the government situation look like? Our region has three main levels of command: the Imperial Council, the Inquisition, and the Hyperion Senate. The Imperial Council (IC) consists of the Autarch, Chancellor, Lord Inquisitor, High Lords, and military command. It assembles when sensitive or secret decisions need to be made. Its members otherwise act separately as department heads and administrators. The Inquisition is the law enforcement of the region. Inquisitors ensure that all members are complying with any requirements currently set in place, and, along with the Lord of Development, also controls admission into the Patrician caste. The Judiciary, our courts system, also exists as part of the Inquisition. The Hyperion Senate consists of all our Patricians, and is the primary body of law and policy. The Senate operates somewhere between a democracy and a mob, and doesn't necessarily need hard votes to get things done. While the IC is technically superior to the Senate, it is more common for the Councillors to participate as Senators. As such, the Hyperion Senate tends to be the most important part of the entire government. Is that it? Of course not, that would be dry and boring. Granted, the Hyperion Senate is about as boring as a discussion on abortion, but you probably don't want to deal with its squabbles and silliness 24/7. That's why we have the Imperial Service and the military. The Imperial Service consists of the various departments, such as Foreign Affairs and Recruitment. All departments are volunteer-only, though enlistment and training in the Hyperian Guard is highly recommended for all members. In general, however, you will be encouraged to join under-staffed departments. Oh yeah, didn't your recruitment telegram mention an RP? Why yes it did! While we allow other RPs, of course, our main RP is the one that sets the standard of our theme and culture. It's kind of complex and involved, but once you get the ball rolling it's about as smooth sailing as any other RP. What if I need help? Pop us a question. Our patience is legendary. You may also check the Great Library of Trantor for answers to some of the more common questions. |

Okay, so there's a new RP. My first question is... how the fuck does this actually work? |

I just came up with another idea, but I'll need Laurentus to help refine it. |

Do tell... Or PM me, if it's not something meant for public eyes. |

Nah, this can be for public eyes. I don't have any secrets to keep. ![]() Basically, the Aesir are morally against how the Miricanians are waging war against Colbentielle (harming and killing non-combatants/civilians) and want to do something about it, but from the tech difference, treaty, and their crippling addiction to cookies, they can't do anything about it. So, here's my idea: Laurentus offers to help the Aesir against Miricano if the Aesir bring down the Kuncache rebels. I know there's a huge tech difference, but seeing as how we massively outnumber them and still have devastating weaponry, it's an obtainable goal. Edited by Aragonn, Sep 22 2015, 03:40 PM.

Frostmark is actually dealing with the Kuncacheans as we speak, unbeknownst to Marinia (who up until this point has been called Laurentus, I just have to start using his actual name as Sarilla is now also recognised by some as Laurentus, so it could lead to confusion). Something Laurentus might go for is Æsir forces supplementing his own or even personally accompanying him to Miricano to try and extract his nephew. He will also likely try to get Æsir support against the Frostmarkers, as he believes Sarilla is a glorified hostage. |

It's been too long since I did anything with this story. I'm forgetting parts of it... Your idea sounds much better. |

I have to say, a small part of me is glad my government's in shambles right now. I wasn't really looking forward to choosing between Sarilla and the original Laurentus.

For interest's sake, who would Colberius have sided with? Sarilla is young and naïve, but I think she's quite formidable all the same. Marinia is efficient, and has been running the empire smoothly even though there were some terrible things to contend with. I wouldn't go as far as saying I like him, but I think that there are worse leaders to be had. |

And we shouldn't forget that Maximus is an heir himself. |

Colberius would have endeavoered to remain aloof from that particular conflict for as long as possible. If forced to choose, though, Marinia would have a steadfast ally. He's the original leader who sought to work with us, and he's the one who hates the Miricanians. If Sarilla were to have spoken with Secretary Em'Lei in Frostmark, that could make things interesting... (On a side note for everyone: the only representatives of my government who are currently contactable are Secretary of State Muri Em'Lei and Fleet Admiral Ira Samwar. Who both have no idea what's going on in Colbentielle. I suppose you could just contact your local Blackwatch team, instead, but they're just as clueless.) I'm hoping that Maximus will help to make my decision clear if/when the time comes to choose which Laurentus to support. Edited by Colberius X, Sep 23 2015, 12:14 PM.
