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.

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?

I will burn down that forest. You hear me! It will be turned to ash! The whole of Colbentielle will become my personal tinderbox for me to light my cigars!

I'd be careful, Miri. You have a full complement of hostile intelligence operatives in your capital city. Operatives who know their chances of escape are slim at best. They might end up doing some foolish things where people could get hurt. What have they got to lose?

(Not that Ramos knows any of this... Oh well. ;) )

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my son go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

Perhaps a (modified?) version of this should be made IC.

I'm afraid I'm not sure why you should take offense; they're prime real estate. :P As to why I can't cede Caesus to you, I don't want to displace the people living there. Also, 75% of my naval vessels were made at Caesus Shipyards, and I don't exactly have resources to build more shipyards of that size.
The people wouldn't have to leave, though they could have the option if they wanted to. Caesus would be more like a protectorate than anything at first. You would also have continued access to the shipyards for a safe period of time to the point where you could be sure PvC would be long over before the deadline was reached. If it makes you more comfortable, along with the previously agreed terms, you can have a choice between a battalion of MR-AP droids, a company of AS-7 combat droids, or a platoon of HK Nanoframe special operations droids, potentially for immediate retaliatory action (for some visual assistance).

The other droids you can keep but if chosen the HKN would probably need to technically be on loan as you'd essentially be getting several squads of assassination droids using some of the most advanced (and by extension expensive) technology currently being mass produced by the Reichwehr, and the organisation that uses them is so secretive that even most of the government is unaware that it exists.

Well, I actually saw the political marriage coming. I'd just like to clarify who the Prince Imperial is, but Sarilla would most likely accept any such terms. She's smart enough to know that Falkenwalde holds all the cards in this negotiation, and he's being positively saint-like by allowing her to rule uncontestedly in the Laurentian Empire. I'd assume that her heirs would also then be the heirs to Frostmark? In other words, the Laurentian Empire would eventually become a part of Frostmark, and vice versa?

From the FT space history, everything would be the same but translated for on-world use:

Gustav

Also don't panic about his age of 59, in my official canon technology has reached a point where Frostmarkers are extremely long-lived and maintain youth for longer as you may know if you've read my factbook before. It might make sense for the purposes of this RP for him to be aged down if nobody else is using similar measures, in which case he'd probably be about 30.

And yes, in Falkenwalde's mind this kind of thing ends up both as an immediate asset through the military alliance and the guaranteed friendship of two powerful states, with the long-term investment of future House of Vasa descendants holding a larger sphere of influence. Although I don't imagine we'll have to think about what the civilisation will end up being called, and if the two territories will actually end up being in political union or governed separately, as that would seem to be far future PvC sequel type shit.
