| 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? |

Why did Miri have to attack a compassionate, forgiving nation who was just trying to prevent a war??? Miri dragged me into this, now I'm forced to drag you in. I need someplace for my people to go, or at least something to give to Frostmark. I only have a chance against you or Aragonn, and he's likely to be the world's largest glass sculpture very soon. So that leaves Science. |

You know what. I could just make Colbentielle the second largest glass sculpture and stop this nonsense. .-. |

Roen would look good as a vase, don't you think, Laurentus? |

At this point, since that is your only leverage, Roen might as well be dead now. Sucks to be you Colby. |

So Penguins are more like supersoldiers, not WMDs? |

Wait a minute, Ramos is just going to give up on his son? That seems to run counter to his entire character up to this point. |

@tau: Yes, they are super soldiers, but they are so super that it isn't a stretch to label them as WMDs. @Colby, I agree. It does run counter to Ramos's character. But god-willing, my army is headed to you from the south, and they're bringing some nice toys of their own. |

Perhaps he is going mad. How powerful are they, and what are their effects? |

"He's mad" is a pretty obvious way of just trying to prevent anyone from having one over on a character and possibly having some kind of wiggle room or means of bargaining. Honestly if Ramos suddenly doesn't care about his son, it's a far cry from the same guy who was having private lamentations and flashbacks because of the kidnapping. If he just suddenly doesn't care I would be extremely disappointed and probably call clear bullshit on it. Just look up Space Marines and imagine a genetically and cybernetically augmented penguin in their place. |
