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.

Founded: 29th October 2014

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?

Just look up Space Marines and imagine a genetically and cybernetically augmented penguin in their place.

I was not disappointed.

I also have a question for Colberius: Have the surrender offers been sent yet?

Does anyone want to try to add one? It appears to be possible.

Also, I decided to search Space Marine Cookie and found this:

No. They'll be sent once the majority of my naval vessels are within weapons range. So you have around 24 hours.

I've been looking for a way to do that for a long time. I must be overlooking it, so if anyone figures it out, let me know.

I still continue to be amazed at how different old PvC posts are from new ones.

Before:

The Jarl waited at the train station, eagerly waiting for the first shipment of cookies from his new allies. These weren't any ordinary cookies. These were soft chocolate chip cookies. These cookies could reduce crime by a huge amount. If only the cookies would arrive faster...

"NO," Emperor Laurentus roared as he flung all his possessions off his desk. "DO YOU REALISE WHAT DISASTROUS CONSEQUENCES THIS WILL HAVE?! I SHOULD THROW YOU TO THE DESERT LIONS! I SHOULD- I SHOULD..."

"I... can see where this is going. It'll just be a matter of time before someone intends to utilise penguin-based WMDs! We can't waste any more time with the testing, we need to initiate operation Sea Lion now!" Hans spluttered, "But sir! They're not ready! They're only prototy-" "THIS IS PENGUIN WARFARE HANS! DO YOU THINK THIS IS A JOKE?!" Hans stood upright, shaking, before saluting towards the Reichskanzler, and made to leave as quickly as he entered.
"Y-yes my Lord."

Wait a minute...

If you agree to these terms, only then will I pull out of Colbentielle. I won't put out the fires or anything, that is the job for your people but I will not come after you anymore. Now, if you don't agree to these terms, you and the pile of mud huts and stick houses you try and call a civilization will become kindling for my lovely napalm strikes. Now, during this message, if I see any military movement or you so much as make a phone call to Laurentus or so much as look at a Laurentian citizen then you will be automatically counted as a permanent enemy and will then die. You won't think I can't see you, but I can.

So your choice is to either live with a severely burned northern state, but essentially live or die a horrifically painful death by being set onfire by yours truly.

You have 20 minutes to decide, which started when this video started. Tick-tock my friend.

Oh and I took the liberty to releasing this video to every major Colbentiellian news outlet, in order to help you make your decision easier. Good luck.

[The Regent picks up a handheld screen off of the desk and faces it towards the camera. On it can be seen a boy, clearly Roen, huddled in a corner. He's shivering, and tears can be seen on his face. The video's timestamp identifies it as being taken ten minutes ago. An electronically modified voice is heard saying, "Say hello to your father, Roen. He's too busy to come find you himself, but he wanted to hear from you." Roen looks up at the camera, tears in his eyes, but the video loops from the beginning before any response is given. The Regent places the screen facedown on his desk.]

I personally guarantee that the given timestamp for this video is accurate. You must be relieved that your boy is alright. That he hasn't been blown to smithereens by a mortar or had the skin burned off his bones by napalm. It's unfortunate that you don't know what all too many Colbentiellian fathers are going through today.

[The Regent's gaze hardens, and his voice takes on a razor-like quality.]

Don't worry, though. There's still time for that to change.

We most definitely took a turn somewhere between then and now. A very sharp turn.

I think it started when Roen got kidnapped.

So will the wedding be taking place in your next post, Frosty? Along with the Frostmarker invasion of Laurentus States?
