Mobile Suit Gundam: The Era of Anarchy


Official Art for Gundam's 40th Anniversary

OOC Discussion Discord


I. Intro

Human Space has collapsed.

It has been 52 years since The Anarchy, where a combination of internal conflict, AI rebellion, and economic collapse led to the destruction of the rough framework of trade, commerce, and the free flow of information that had held Humanity's settlements and colonies together. Earth is divided, the Colonies are warring with each other, Mars is aloof, Venus' traders and executives want to profit, and Jupiter's kaleidoscope of squabbling factions wants to rule everything with an iron fist. Billions have already died, and 'only' millions dying yearly counts as progress towards peace.

Expectations have sunk that low.

Factions bicker over the remains.

Earth, the homeworld of Humanity, remains the source of legitimacy for those seeking to unite the species under one banner. For the most part, Earth and its people avoided the abuses of tyranny and control that were expected in other histories. They gave independence to the Colonies when requested, allotted Mars representation, gave Venus' entrpreneurs the chance to make money on equal terms, and as a reward, was spared the worst excesses of the Anarchy - Nothing was dropped on it from orbit, its academics and diplomats are respected, and its nations are careful not to raze each others' cities and thus destroy the prizes within.

But that just makes it a treasure to be seized, if not by a unifier, then from outside.

You can rise high.

In this anarchy, there is opportunity. The low can overthrow the high, the rich can become poor, and the ability to pilot a Mobile Suit, or even one of the legendary Gundams, can allow one to shape the tides of war, the processes of history, and the forces of social change.

You can be anything you want as long as there is room for you to rise. What you cannot be is a God, but below that are many things. Trader, Warlord, or a Lone Adventurer with a salvaged Gundam, you can be who you want to be... Or fail, die, and be forgotten - That can happen too!




TL;DR - This is an Interest Check for my most ambitious RP yet: A Sandbox, pseudo-persistent world game in a world that combines elements from various Gundam settings. And by that, the tech, the ships, and the Gundams are taken from multiple settings that have been Frankensteined to work with one another.

Earth is closest to UC but with less bullshit space magic - No Unicorn Gundams, no Phenexes, and no Angel Halos. Newtypes and Cyber-Newtypes exist but get a nerf, so do not expect to be Amuro or Banagher.

Mars has IBO tech, only Nanolaminate works like it does in those videogames that do cross over Gundams from various settings - It can block even the most powerful UC beams. Also, the original Alaya-Vijyana exists on Mars, so the A-V System does not cause nerve damage or loss of control over the limbs.

Venus has Gundam 00 Tech, minus the Innovators or any technology reliant on them, plus a smattering of IBO Urdr-Hunt tech, including Nanolaminate, as well as some models from Reconguista in G.

Jupiter, or rather, the colonies and moons around it, has Gundam Wing technology, and enough Gundamium to make three dozen Gundams, plus a smattering of UC technology, ships, and models in addition to Neutron Jammers, Neutron Jammer Cancellers, and Neptune Systems from Gundam SEED. Also, Coordinators and Coordinator/Natural Hybrid children.

Oh, right, AI-controlled Mobile Armors like the Hashmal also exist, and they are joined by AI versions of UC-era MAs, such as the Elmeth, as well as AI Gundams, making them even more formidable.




To prevent this RP from turning out like most Sandbox RPs before it, we will have multiple OOC Threads, one for the Earth Sphere, one for Mars, Venus, and the Asteroid Belt, and one for Jupiter, plus (if I can recruit them) a GM for each OOC thread under the watch of the Over-GM, aka me. There will be a 'Master OOC Thread' where all OCs will be archived, same for every major plot development, and which will also act as a 'Bulletin Board' for opportunities to advance your position like bounties, missions, and eventually, when an OC takes over Earth/Mars/Jupiter, a way to coordinate major warfare.

So, your thoughts and interest?

So I have vague character ideas for each of the four potential settings but I kind of want to know what other people are planning first so I know which one to work on and what to focus on and stuff.

@Rin, well, we do discussion in the OOC Discussion Discord; the OOC is best used for posting WIP CSes or ideas too large for a Discord message, as well as advertising for people to come. Also approving CSes and also giving detailed criticism on them.

Name: Kazuki Yamagata

Appearance:


Age: 18

Bio: There is a rising power in Jupiter, a power that is slowly subduing the warlords of the region. Hungry for revenge on Mars after the crushing debts imposed on the Jovian region, after the settlers there caused the AI Rebellion. It is not a kind power; rather, it is an Empire that seeks to take over all of Human Space and impose its vision of 'genetic determinism' on all members of the species. Kazuki was born in that 'Jupiter Nation', and selected at an early age to be a soldier and bodyguard; that was his destiny and that was all he was supposed to ever be.

He was supposed to guard a prisoner. The prisoner was a boy from Earth, some sort of prodigy academic with some sort of 'Newtype' gift. They talked, they became friends, and Kazuki realized that he had missed out in life. So Kazuki broke his prisoner out, and the two of them are on the run, hoping to find a way back to Earth...

Mundane Skills: Firearms, Unarmed Combat, Computers, Mobile Suit Piloting.

Personality: Kazuki wants to experience the different life his new friend and partner had described, a life not regimented, not caged by strict discipline and cold brutality. Kazuki wants to experience kindness, friendship, and even love. Now 'awakened' to the existence of such things, Kazuki forges on to take them, not willing to be denied. In short, he is trying to find himself, and one day, he will be the man raised in a desert, but who has found a Garden.

Are you a Newtype or Cyber-Newtype (Nerfed), Coordinator, or have the Alaya-Vijyana System implanted into your spine? Coordinator (with a Natural mother; has Newtype potential).




Kazuki's Mech

Name: Jupiter Mercurius

Is it a Gundam? No, It's a Limited Mass-Production Suit

Apperance:

Name: Daniel Iskander Tripp

Appearance:


Age: 16

Bio: Born on Earth to a family of accomplished Academics, Daniel had always wanted to go out into space to see different sights, people, and cultures. Due to Earth's academics and scientists being respected enough, due to Earth's governments avoiding the mistakes made in other universes, the boy was able to go into orbit early with his father, Deuel, his mother, Maria, and his twin, Leon, and found doors opening for them in the Colonies, Venus, and Mars as soon as their mission was known. Then suddenly, on a trip to the Asteroid Belt, pirates attacked, and while all of them survived, Daniel was separated from his family and captured.

Then, the Pirates sold him off to an unknown Jupiter Nation, who tested him for 'Newtype Powers'; he had them. He was then kept imprisoned and interrogated for every bit of knowledge he had about the rest of the Earth Sphere, even as he began to develop the powers he had been tested for under the stress. What saved him from despair was talking to one of his guards, one Kazuki Yamagata, whom he told about life outside of the Jovian Region. Nevertheless, he was surprised when one day, Kazuki busted into his cell after blowing up the door and said, "We're getting out. Also, may I call you Daniel?"

Daniel knew he was sincere. Daniel knew he had to get out, lest the Unknown Jupiter Nation grow even stronger and pose a threat to the rest of Human Space. So he nodded and let Kazuki lead him out and into his Mobile Suit, the Mercurius.

And so they went off, hoping to find another faction to warn of this new foe!

Mundane Skills: History, Literature, Photography, Videogames, Math, Science, and Computers.

Personality: Daniel is a kind and curious soul, quick to like other people and hope to be liked back. Nevertheless, as a sixteen-year-old kid who is well away from familiar territory, reliant on a protector who may turn against him should he not fulfil his implied promises, and who, above all, misses his family, he is under a lot of stress. And of course, he is a Newtype who is experiencing visions of death and disaster from a dozen different potential sources. Life is not good for Daniel right now...

Are you a Newtype or Cyber-Newtype (Nerfed), Coordinator, or have the Alaya-Vijyana System implanted into your spine? Y (Newtype.)

Here's my second character, originally Venus sphere, currently a pirate operator.

* with Dezuel's approval

Will finish up my final character once I polish up her backstory and colony backstory. Do we need to start out with a mobile suit or similar vehicle, or can that come later?
