I should probably mention that Quxikotl mercenaries are somewhat common provided you know how to contact them and don't destroy them at first sight. They're a wary bunch and lack the ferocity they used to have but there's something to be said about having a giant armored lizardmen charging at you with an notAK-47 firing wildly and a chainsaw sword revving in hand that few other things can replicate. The mercs, like everyone else in the race, are just trying to find their way and a purpose in life and because their society never really valued looking into philosophical thoughts like that, they don't know how to cope with it beyond doing what they know how to do.

Also, stahp feeling compassion towards them dammit, they're meant to be hated >_<

@ClocktowerEchos Why not both :P

Also, since you mention mercs, me and oz are planning on a proxy war storyline, our nations backing warring factions on a independent colony. Your mercenaries will find plenty of work there :)

Expect some independent Schäferkin packs. The battle-born don't always find the amount of fighting available is enough in relative peacetime upon Joord. So some will set out in a small ship able to take a pack and search for work.

And clocktower, don't see it as me taking pity on the lizards, see it as them losing interest.
The fortress is probably back in Joord orbit since some time.

I mean, the Federation may take notice and all..perhaps :P

Despite the rather sore history between the States of Aurolia and the Quxikotl, I'd imagine the Aurolians both, extending a helping hand to Quxikotl that truly want it, even have done the same for the Tak'a'dis(unfortunately though, the Quxikotl wouldn't exactly feel welcomed by a segment of the civilian population) and keeping a close watch over Covenant activities on their former homeworld, nothing too overt of course.


Ah, these damnable benevolent federations, always meddling in others' questionable practices... I suppose relations with the Federation would be somewhat tense, since the Covenant is not especially keen on the entire democracy and lifeform rights matter. While them and the
Iurrketh may have a common foe in the Concordat, the Covenant proper is actually rather interested in remaining on amicable terms with the latter. Once again, a possible improvement on their attitude towards the Federation would depend on who manages to sway the Swarms to their side.

Would any nations be interested in having trading and an uneasy friendship with Vesia?


It depends on what the Vesians have to offer in terms of exports and produce. While an actual friendship, uneasy or not, would probably be seen as of little consequence, the Covenant is open to trading with whomever will have them (and not ask too many questions). Rare marine creatures, for instance, might be an article they would be willing to pay a reasonable price for.

@Sigma@Ozerath@KlomsterThere is plenty of trade to go round and sounds good.
Natural and Manufactored resources of Vesia include: metals, common along with rare earth metals, minerals, and alloys; solar panels; seafoods ranging from delicacies of tender fish to the humble seaweed; textiles (not cloth, but other fabrics made from sea animals); and crude oil and other fuels.
As for downtrodden masses leaving Vesia, not many now although that could change and some Vesi wanting a life outside water may respiratory to becoming cyborgs.

My WIP nation. Thought I'd post it here so I can join in on discussions.

@Ozerath The Union will probably have some of it's non believers flee to the Concordat, if that's okay? The church doesn't really like non believers.

If any of you have a religion you want to spread because of Space-Jesus Deus Vult, please do tell. It would make for a very interesting dynamic all things considered.


I think my people would be very happy to spread their religion to the Quxikotl if you don't mind. Give them something to do rather than fight and die.

Alright everyone, I think now's the perfect time to announce that the IC will start up sometime this weekend between Friday or Saturday. Once then, the countdown begins.

@BilboTheGreat Do you mind if Vesia has a small split of sorts broken away from the Union, but in other respects religiously following Dracrekhi?
Or is Political and Religious 100% linked?

@Ozerath They only make up a small part of the population as the number of non-followers is low, but I'd say all or most of that group would try to leave. So while there isn't loads of them, there would be a moderate amount, enough to notice.

@JuliusCaesar They can follow Dracrekhi, but the Union may not like it if they can't supervise it properly. If there weren't any Rothan priestess' (as these are a major part of it) or a Union presence they wouldn't like it. It could either foster a great relationship or a very tense one as the Union wouldn't like it being changed or not followed properly.

@BilboTheGreat then I would say at this point not many of the Vesi follow Dracrekhi, but missionary work would not be stopped by the King...

Was considering "crashing the party".

Not ruining the scene, just adding to it.
I'd have to make some characters first though. Recurring ones would be more fun.

Since i for the moment don't have a particular scene i have in mind to work from, but i have if i work from the one presented.

And here we go. Opening post coming soon.

By the bye, as concerns nicknames, I suppose that Covs would be a fairly common one for the agents of everyone's favourite pseudo-government. Or Covenanters, if one is feeling especially eloquent.

@Oraculum Covs or Covvies would probably be a common moniker for the Federation.

I'd imagine for me, the most common phrases would be the Feds.
