| 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. |

I'm starting this thread so that we can all brainstorm together. If we're going to make RP a selling-point, we actually need an RP that everyone can join. I actually liked PvC a lot because it was solely on Earth. Perhaps another one could be set in one province or city, after an apocalyptic event? |

I do believe I could handle an NPC. I might just need some help from time to time. And since Frosty and Colby are currently inactive... |

Yes. You can start by writing a factbook for your nation. We're using technology used by the Warhammer 40,000 faction called Imperium of Man which includes the Space Marines. Play off of that as much as you want and go all out with your culture and whatnot. |

Aragonn doesn't mean to sound quite so authoritarian.

Aragonn, you might not want Robin to go off writing a factbook just yet. After all, you might want to set a specific factbook template. (He might want to do some planning still, of course.) |

So I should wait a bit for a template then? I'll start on a general framework though. Romulans can exist here, right? |

They couldn't in the previous RP headed by Mara... But I think we don't have to follow that one to the letter. |

Final decision will be up to Aragonn. |

Let's make things interesting. You can have different races so long as they're humanoid, but they must be different from the other WH40K races and still use the IoM tech for a base. As for the factbook template, I remember people going off and doing their own thing for factbook design, but I can link to my PvC factbook for an idea. Edit: I'd have linked to my old AH factbook if he had permission to see it, but he doesn't since it's in Staff storage. Edited by Aragonn, Nov 28 2015, 11:50 AM.

So it goes pretty far in depth? Excellent. I might need a review on IoM tech though—I'm not too familiar with it, really. :/ |
