- What is your nation's name? The Kingdom of Prestonia, or Prestonia for short. Under NS as Central Prestonia. - Have you ever applied to Pardes before? No. - Do you role play any other nations? No. - How big is your nation (or colony, if applicable) in terms of population? What sort of population density/overall landmass are you looking for? I'm looking to play a nation sized around 85-90 million population for IC, though this is flexible downward; I wouldn't want to manage a population much bigger than that. Landmass and pop density don't matter to me too much though I'd like something no more dense than average western Europe or the US. - Please Describe your nation. The concept I have is an Anglophone nation, economically free market, historically neutral/militarily isolationist, politically a de-jure absolute monarchy of the Enlightened Despotism line of thought, with a Parliament that exists as an advisory board to the Sovereign convened and disposed of at his/her pleasure. Without making it too tl;dr here I've got a fairly fleshed-out background for how this comes about and it results in a populace a lot free-er than you'd expect from such a situation. - How long have you role played this nation? How long have you role played on NS? How long have you been role playing? I've had Prestonia in various forms since 2007 but this is a revival of a canon I've done in 2008-9 and briefly in 2012. I was on NS from 2007-whenever SMS started, and have been writing since 07. - Why are you interested in joining Pardes? I'm looking for a region where I can play a realistic population, with realistic but still engaging politics, good cooperative writing, a nicely-done map, and activity, in no specific order. Basically, what I got out of SMS before activity died down. - Please list 3 RP examples http://z15.invisionfree.com/Haven_Region/index.php?showtopic=645 maybe not my best work but my favorite http://www.statesmanship.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1068 for awhile when I wrote a Danish culture http://www.statesmanship.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=993 this is the last thing I spent a great deal of time writing, and one of my favorites, despite some of the Game of Thrones elements in it. - Did anyone refer you to Pardes? Oseato mentioned it in passing. - Do you have a human population? If no, then please list what you have. I have a human population and do not recognize non-human pops in my RPs, for realism. - What tech level do you play with? If it is not MT, how will it interact with MT nations? I play MT, FT was never my thing and I can't see myself playing in it. Past-tech RPs to establish background can be fun and I've worked on them before. - Tell us a bit about yourself and how you'd contribute to the region. Short statements are fine, but a longer one is usually better. Just don't make it tl;dr. I'm 23, college grad, work for XBox Live Tech Support, write as time allows. Envision myself being as active as my time and creativity allow, but I'm quality over quantity so don't expect a post a day unless its a news thread. As far as contributing to the region goes, I'd like to start a Soccer/Football cup thread, if there's interest. Another thing I'd like to see happen, that we attempted years ago in Haven, is to get together with all the active RP communities with maps and make a giant map to standardize our scale and format and make cross-region RPing easier. Easier said than done but would be willing to help coordinate if there's interest. |
