Since I am running a certain D&D module...
Why not use that as inspiration?
Note: This is still a Work in Progress...

Concerning sheets and deadlines: While I know many players like to go full-in on crafting worlds, I do want to make sure that we don't stall on getting the RP actually started. As a result, I'm giving everyone until February 1st to have a finalized sheet. At that point, I will approve or reject every sheet I've received. (Rejection is possible in this RP, but don't take it too personally if I can't let you in at just this time. We've got like 20 people who have expressed some variety of interest.) The goal is to start this RP on 2/2/22 :P

Still gonna read over all the sheets I've already received in the meantime, ofc. And speaking of:



Also, I do urge everyone to join the Discord who hasn't already. I make a lot of announcements and so forth there, and it would be helpful as a tool to follow along. You don't really need to be super active, but just being aware of it and occasionally checking on your browser or whatever can aide you.

No worries then. I'll make sure I include all our major announcements here as well, for those who don't use Discord.

@Tortoise That's good. I can definitely respect wanting a certain aesthetic.

Regarding your point on a slippery slope - that's actually something I personally need to be more cognizant of. Unfortunately, I'm aware that I sometimes get frustrated when people don't have the same understanding of my niche interests that I do, and I'm not as cognizant of the general idea of impressions (especially first impressions). I'm aware of the concept, of course, but I suppose it's something more experienced GMs would understand better than I would, with my GMing history being in a closed environment.
Also, I realize that it's a bit selfish and entitled of me to expect other RPers to cultivate the same understanding of military history as I have. It would be like a player demanding I get an understanding of the physics of space travel before participating in a science fiction RP, when the details space travel haven't been a particular interest of mine. If I enjoyed science fiction, I wouldn't want to play a sci-fi RP, only to be told that I wouldn't actually be allowed to do what I thought I could based on my understanding of things. I wouldn't want to have to spend time researching a topic that doesn't interest me just to play in an RP for a genre which does interest me.

Besides that, I'm very pleased you find my draft satisfactory. I'm happy that you had a solid understanding of the ideals regarding Vivesper that I was trying to convey. I definitely intend to expand on the culture later, when I'm not drunk as a skunk (and hopefully not hungover), as it's a topic I find to be of significant importance to a nation. I would've loved to go into more detail, but the more responsible me had to draw a line somewhere regarding my time, so I could get some sleep before traveling.
As for a more precise population estimate - that's something I'm less sure of. I wanted something that was significantly large to show the Empire's ability to eventually thrive in its environment (especially in more recent times with its stability), but I didn't want something ludicrous, because deprivation and war claimed many, many lives before that point, and it would still be a far cry from the population before the Cataclysm. I also didn't want anything that would give the impression of one-upmanship or otherwise intending to dominate other players. I figured that the more vague range of "massive" would reflect the success and stability of the Empire in spite of their environment, while not invoking something as huge as the Roman or Mongol Empire. Overall, I think something near the lower end of the "massive" scale would probably fit, but I'd need some help to make sure.
