| 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.

Here, more in-depth discussions can be had about the books and series, because there is no fear of spoiling it for people who don't want it spoiled. |

Indeed, there's just so much to discuss about ASOIAF/GOT. The last two times I met my cousin, we spent hours discussing it over dinner. Do you guys want to continue on to another theory? |

Don't see a reason not to. |

Okay, then! Let's discuss CLEGANEBOWL (GET HYPE) and other related theories. Is the Gravedigger Sandor Clegane? Who or what is "Ser Robert Strong"? Who will face Ser Robert Strong in Cersei's Trial by Battle? Will it be a Trial of Seven? I feel that the humor surrounding CLEGANEBOWL hinders serious discussion of these topics. Personally, I strongly suspect that the Gravedigger is Sandor, but I kind of want it to be an obscure hint that's never addressed again, with Sandor finding some peace on the Quiet Isle. I believe Ser Robert Strong is a reanimated corpse, probably largely composed of Gregor Clegane. I think he's also made of other people though. Finally, I like the idea of the High Septon countering Ser Robert Strong by demanding a Trial of Seven. |

I'm conflicted. While I would like Sandor to find peace, I also want to see him do something incredible at some point. Usually I don't llike something as clichéd as two brothers who hate each other to fight it out in some epic battle between good and evil, but in this particular case, the heinous acts of brutality The Mountain has committed, and the whole build-up surrounding Sir Robert Strong, would make me very happy to see Sandor play some part in his destruction. |

I think you and I basically agree on these counts then. |
