| 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.

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

Colby. You took me on an emotional rollercoaster. I was super impressed you were taking the high road on this hurricane thing. Then you had to go an intercept a freaking missile. I honestly hope you know that is direct provocation of the nation and means direct war. Be prepared to see your wonderful nation, be burned and razed to the ground. Good luck. |

Before I can even think of a response we'll need to clarify to what extent my Scientific Advancement will help me. Specs for your missiles would also be helpful, Colby and Miri.

@Miri - Glad to hear that I haven't lost my touch. But your missile was riding the edge of my airspace. Also, you fired on an unidentified force in international airspace. Plus, THEY WERE TURNING AROUND. Ramos has to consider fallout from the whole world on this one. If I were him, I'd be scared of losing an ally for taking such an unnecessary risk, or even scared that Genesis might take notice. If Ramos had waited another two hours, he could have shot them down the minute they breached his airspace, and Colbentielle would have let him. @Laurentus - I don't actually have missile specs... Do you want me to make some? |

Yes, I'll need to know what I'm dealing with if I'm going to write something accurately. |

Um. It was Laurentian military heading for my borders. That calls for attack immediately. They wouldn't be turning around if they didn't come to attack in the first place. |

I don't think it would quite work like that in real life considering how Russia only recently (last year was it?) decided to randomly breach American airspace and nobody did jack shit in response, and consider how he didn't even actually enter your airspace Well played though, you've pretty much made Ramos the Hitler of PvC. |

Yeah, it is not out of character for Ramos to do this. ![]() But some terrorists will make a statement with his son soon. Bet on it. EDIT: Also, I need the specs, haha, or I'm going to have to make it up myself. I also think that what I'm going to lean towards with the Scientific Advancement is that my jets (or whatever they use in WH40K) will be faster than the missiles, or something like that.

Oh jeez. I need to make missile specs. That should be fun. I will post it in my specs for my Factbook within an hour. |

Also, this would be another example where we need to be careful not to mix what you know about a situation from reading my RP posts with your own character knowledge. Ramos has no way of knowing that I was planning on attacking, so this could easily have been an innocent training excercise. Of course, we all know that's bullshit, but the characters shouldn't. Regardless, this fits in perfectly with Ramos's madman-dictator character, and I'm not complaining. Just expect Laurentus to retaliate in a big way.
