| 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? |

Nothing is really preventing any of us from having automated taxis. ;P |

But I like having unsolicited conversations with an awkward 70 year old man in a dingy, dank barely lit taxi that suspiciously smells like week old tacos, with an inspection sticker that is almost four years expired and a partition that only goes up halfway. Good times. |

I'm generally averse to the idea of Frostmarkers being written by other RPers barring situations such as a character of Markaic heritage being created by someone else as a member of their civilisation. And besides, I have a response planned. Edited by Alexander, Dec 20 2014, 06:42 PM.

Okay, I'll get on with editing my post. I think it probably won't be all that hard to write with broken German, seeing as I'm really rusty with it. |

Okay, it's been changed. Let me know what you think. And also feel free to correct any German mistakes I made that weren't made intentionally. As I've said, my German is severely rusty. EDIT: I've edited the RP post again, as I couldn't think of an adequate way for a misunderstanding to arise earlier, but I think I have it now. To Miri: Could you change the names of the two border policemen to Günther and Yusuf? I've decided New Hatfield will be split 50-50 between Arabs and Germans. EDIT 2: I've now also added a spoiler at the bottom of the post for those who don't understand German. Edited by Laurentus, Dec 20 2014, 10:58 PM.

Lmao, well done. This is how things should be, I'd recommend everyone go back and read Laurentus' edit. Had a good chuckle. |

Just for the sake of ease in your next post Laur', you can assume you've already given a statement and take control of the representative as long as it's well done, as it makes more sense to get through the administrative process quicker than waiting for RPer back and forth, and he'd also be just some no-name throwaway character anyway. |

Lmao. Your guard is quite possibly the biggest cunt in the world. Alright, I'll do my best with the next one. I doubt Sarilla will soon forget how much of a fool she just made of herself. Also, I hope I wasn't assuming a bit too much with the relatively minimum level of security, and the friendliness of the staff at the travelling agency. That just seemed like one place that would be non-hostile to attract business. |

We simply must have a scene like this one at some point: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7PmzdINGZk#watch_actions |
