| 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? |

Yeah I'd like to again remind people that OOC and IC knowledge should not flow both ways. If you want to do it then you should just do it and see how he reacts, rather than only doing it because you know via OOC knowledge that there won't be certain repercussions. I was also about to remind you that regarding the communication, to not forget that this is future tech, but I see Laurentus did the job. |

I remember using hyperspace communications arrays in the AH RP, but those were for interstellar communication. Here we're just dealing with a planet, so perhaps just a comm satellite? |

Now I need to fund a way to destroy these... Colby: what communications are you using. I would assume that it would be less advanced than Laurentian technology |

Our satellite communication is probably essentially the same, given the relatively small scale of communications we're referring to, but I'm sure that his is both significantly faster and more secure. |

I mean, it makes perfect sense for ASATs to exist, since that's Cold War-era tech. |

Well. Say good-bye to the Aesir empire, gents. Unless Jarl Aragonn can come up with a really good reason for Laurentus to spare him. |

I can actually think of a really good reason. Heimdall's still in Port Alexandria, right? If he were to assassinate Ramos... It'd be a suicide mission, but I think he could pull it off. And I certainly think that would be fair payment. |

Colby. Can you provide the following info for me? What is the capital of Capitol is and how many people live there. I need this information to get ready for phase two, the process of taking out your communications. |

I think you should really just accept that you're not going to be able to take out communications. Any idiot with a satellite phone/dish/receiver will be able to contact anyone. On Colby's point, I like what I'm hearing, but if he fails, the Aesir are toast. Quite literally. Edited by Laurentus, Apr 26 2015, 07:45 AM.

That would be an honorable death, but I do believe we would just be cutting the head off the hydra. General Royce would need to die as well. |
