Aura Hyperia was originally created from the merging of the regions Bloemfontein and A Second Try, and then arose from The United States of Europe. Its former residents have rebranded themselves as the Hyperion Order, and currently reside within New Hyperion.

Founded: 29th October 2014

The regional roleplay has now started! Talk to Lord Aragonn about joining!
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?

Okay, we're definitely going to have to establish at what Scientific Advancement level people are capable of producing a hurricane. This should be a high-level one, so possibly only Frosty, me or taulover could do it. Since it is originating near Africa, it seems you want me to be the culprit, Miri?

Therein lies the problem. I don't want to disrupt anyone like that, otherwise it delays the war. So I'm just going to assume this is either Frosty's handiwork, or taulover's, and that my Aeronautics department is too incompetent to pick up foreign planes close to my empire. Or this is really a freak hurricane.

Except every other tablet available.

The hurricane wasn't me, I swear.

I was assume either a: it was actually a freak hurricane or b) Colby or Laurentus did it. Perhaps even Zander or someone else?

Any people who want to take credit for it.

Not me. I deal in advanced computer software and components, with a secondary focus on spy-tech. I've got nothing like that.

Besides, I have no desire to destroy or otherwise devastate the Entente.

The hurricane forming off of your coast does not necessarily mean that you created it. With the way the winds blow, the hurricane has to form off the coast of Africa for it to hit North America. Any attack on the Entente via hurricane would have to be delivered this way.

That is mildly insulting to my Aeronautics board, since their incompetence is the only way for someone to launch a hurricane undetected near my empire.

Let us assume this is a freak hurricane.

I'm thinking we should probably create a character factbook, since there are so many prominent figures in the RP.


EDIT: Someone with this tech should be able to generate a hurricane almost anywhere, anyway.

And just to give Colby some idea of what his agent just survived: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_mamba

Your agent has just been kissed by death, and has lived to tell about it.

If the hurricane were to be made to look natural, it would have to be formed off the coast of Africa. And the canister or whatever could have been dropped from low orbit.

It seems that the only logical choice here is that it's actually a freak hurricane.

Do we have the capabilities for anti-hurricane technology?
