Void of the Stars: A sci-Fi Nation Roleplay

Lakfakalle Orbit
"Both of you are cleared to land, tractors are prepared for your arrival. For the Supremes, this planet is the capital of the Abh Imperial State, and its inhabitants will accept nearly anything you say. It should be noted that the proper formal way to address humans is by the terms 'Inferior Ones' or 'Shamed Ones'. Gender neutral pronouns are also a good choice, as some of our citizens do not accept their physical gender. Many have undergone transgender surgery, and they are fully recognized as their mental gender. Speaking to them using their original gender will not offend them, but it will be confusing. Also, whatever you do, do not ask civilian humans question about the history of their species, it is a sensitive subject only spoken about by diplomatic personnel. Oh yes, one last bit of advice. Unless you want to get into a long discussion about it, do not mention science to a Boskop."

Lakfakalle
As the diplomats bickered and came close to an outright fight, a humanoid figure descended from the sky, wearing a white and gold uniform. It looked almost military until the figure got closer, and the uniform was shown to be much more ornate than utilitarian. The figure's long blue hair, pointed ears, and elflike face made it clear that she was an Abh. As she got closer, a dropship came into view and landed quietly with no wind, dropping off four others wearing similar clothing. One of human, obviously President Dmitri. The others were the Dolphin "Leading One", the Boskop Head Researcher, and the Ethra'Hirel Chancellor. The Abh came closer, floating using what was most likely a negative mass harness. She touched down on the ground, directly between the Triarian and Sazkarjhit parties.
"I, Ablïarsec Néïc Dubleuscr Bœrh Parhynr Lamhirh, Empress of the Abh Imperium, formally welcome you to our capital planet of Lakfakalle. It is an honor to have so many peoples represented here, and an even greater honor to have the chance to prevent bloodshed. You may address me as either Empress or Lafiel. I must remind you that these are peace talks, and the point of them is to find a peaceful end to this conflict, not to throw insults around before killing one another." She bowed, and the other diplomats greeted the others in similar fashions. The Ethra'Hirel had a different custom though, and their diplomat did some sort of triple-legged split.

Message to the Equiis Pact
"You are still in the conflict! At least order all ships to take up defensive positions around your planets, and send diplomats to Lakfakalle! Just because you think they want you all dead does not mean that they will not accept a peaceful solution, if the Collective sends no diplomats then only then will we fight them!"

Message to the Triarians
"The Pact never tried to steal them, they just went there! And you killed them for it! For wanting to leave! You murdered your masters, your guides, for wanting to go somewhere else! If this is showing us who your people really are, then perhaps the Aetherii made a mistake! You will send diplomats to Lakfakalle and try to find a peaceful solution, or else you will see Federation bombardment ships in the skies of Triarius! You say you want to unite the universe, did it ever occour to you that perhaps the united universe wouldn't be flying a Triarian banner? What if it flew the flag of the Equiis Pact, or our own flag! What if it flies the Zonanese flag, or perhaps a flag not yet seen by our people? Would you still be pleased, or are you nothing more than hypocrites?"

Contact
An AIF scout has made contact with a species called the Loroi, who have displayed an extremely rare trait among all bi-gendered species. The female part has a 90% majority over the male part due to a chromosome imbalance that causes a drastically reduced male birthrate. The cite their history as the origin of that imbalance, stating that they had an extreme disadvantage when it came to physical strength and thus mutations eventually gave them a quicker maturation rate and more females to bear children. They also seem to have a Triarian-like psionic ability, which they can technologically amplify. Unlike other minor species, the Loroi have FTL capability that functions by catapulting the ship into another dimension, and is often described by them as sending the ship on an "Interdimensional ballistic trajectory".

On another note thishttp://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/20741/posts/oocWhile it has been dead for a while, Im trying to revive it for anyone interested.

I think you should just make a new thread for that. Also, I reserve the UTSNA territories. I will have much more time soon.

Triarian-Pact Hostility
Multiple planetary defense fleets have been mobilized, and put on the border closest to the Equiis Pact with the capability to wormjump into defensive positions around important planets. A messsage has been sent to both sides of the conflict from President Saveli.
"The Allied Interstellar Federation will not allow a war! Your fleets will stand down and you will both send diplomats to the Abh capital of Lakfakalle for peace talks. There is a peaceful resolution to this conflict, we just have to find it!"

Mars, Federation MIlitary Command
"The Triarians and Equiis Pact may not survive this war. They know not the destruction they will bring upon the universe as a whole."
"It is a tragedy we could very well be unable to stop without direct military action against both sides. We may be forced to kill our brothers and sisters in the stars."
"What of the Ultimate Goal?"
"We will begin sending out more exploration and colony ships, order all craft to be on the constant lookout for sentient species to be accepted into the Federation."

IFV McClain, Fath
The great starship cruised through Fath, protected from its alien physical laws by a new type of shielding designed specifically for Fath travel. A smaller alien craft had docked with it after Retsukuu had been defeated, neglecting to request clearance. As the crew of the alien ship appeared to have helped in the fight, Fergus had allowed them to dock without being met with weapons fire. A small security crew had been taken to the docking port by Fergus himself, composed entirely of Tractatori. The airlock doors separating the two craft opened, revealing the Captain of the alien ship. Seeing Fergus, she smiled. Fergus simply stared, while everyone else just wondered what was going on. The alien captain spoke in her own language, saying the standard greeting of her people. She knew how Federation translators worked. A few moments later, the translator implants of the Federation crew began to understand the alien language.
"I know you." Said Fergus, more confused than anything else.
"Yes, yes you do. Captain Lahnha, S.I.S.A. We've spoken before."
"Lahnha... you... you actually exist!" Said Fergus, falling onto his knees in astonishment. "Thank you... thank you! Everyone, you are in the prescence of the savior of humanity!"
Not knowing what to do, the Tractatori simply stood there trying to decide if Fergus was insane or not.
"Thank you so much... thank you!" Continued Fergus, trailing off in an undescribable emotional state.

Oh good! Human supremacists, it's about time that we had something like that!

Also, only if the Supremes ask first. The AIF thinks they just want to be left alone by them.

Triarian Commendation
The AIF has (much more politely) pointed out that the Triarians sacrifice freedom far more than the Equestrians. However, multiple diplomats have agreed that the Equiis Pact appears to them as an extension of Equestrian power, despite the apparent equality. Of course, some humans have also expressed that joining the Equiis Pact could have ended up returning the human economy to capitalism, a system they consider inferior to their current system, what with the free trade laws. The Abh are still saying that it would have been a good idea, and a larger power in the Pact could have made it better than the way the Triarians view it. The Dolphins are still steadfastly refusing to accept ever joining the Pact, and more refusal of Federation assistance in research and construction has begun by them. Meanwhile, the Boskops say that they have found joining the Equiis Pact to be "Unnecessary to the ultimate goal at the current time." The Ethra'Hirel, instead of just following the Boskops, have said that they would have welcomed the chance to fight alongside the "Glorious warriors of the Equiis Pact". Obviously, the CoF wants to join, while some of the more independent religions say they have no wish to join the Pact. Government polls have concluded that there is no danger of any violence over the matter, though. It seems the citizens of the Federation are trying to keep things civil.

Yeah, the Makudan are big enough to hold their own. Of course, maybe a tiny bit of diplomacy would help them a bit. I know they're not much for it, but still. I could always have the Federation reach out to them diplomatically.

On the subject of Dark Energy, we could always retcon the extreme differences of it between nations as the separate nations giving the same name to different substances. Then we could all use our different ideas! And then we could bring in actual Dark Energy (Matter).

And yes, Robert must have evil plans of evil evilness based off of being... not actually that evil. Just misguided in AIF terms.

Void of the Stars: A sci-Fi Nation Roleplay

Antimatter is pretty much the exclusive energy source of the AIF, the Dark Energy I mentioned is less Dark Matter based and more a random antigravitic thing. I can just say we named it Dark Energy because reasons, like how Negative Energy is used in conversation instead of Negative Mass.

Equiis Pact Diplomacy
"The five species of the Allied Interstellar Federation have regrettably declined your offer, but it was a very close vote. Nearly every Abh voted for acceptance, but the Dolphins turned the tide, they're quite independently minded. As the president, I personally wish that the public had agreed to join you. Only through peace and diplomacy can harmony be created. Someday we will join you, or perhaps you will join us. Maybe we'll both join some other alliance. Whatever happens, I promise that there will be a day that the species of our two great powers will live side by side as equals, but it seems like the public simply isn't ready. However, the Boskops have been able to get the majority of us onboard with a scientific partnership if you are interested. To complement that, the Abh are pushing a free transit bill almost exactly the same as your immigration/emigration policies as laid out in the treaty. In fact, the evidence seems to say that the only reason we didn't join is the Dolphins being opposed to it. They simply are not ready, the only reason they stay with us is because they feel like they owe us something. Once they have become sufficiently powerful, I think they will be more comfortable with us joining. Again, I am sorry this didn't work out."

Terran Manufacturing Conglomerate HQ, Earth Asteroid Field
A single ball rolled down a ramp, plowing through levers that made other balls start rolling. Then those balls made other balls roll in a similar way, creating a ridiculous looking cascade of metal balls visible through a layer of glass separating the contraption from the outside world. As men and women of five species looked on with their respective viewing organs, those balls rolling along smoothly on the wimple machine known as an inclined plane collided with multiple different levers, which dropped weights down onto old mechanical scales. Shifting the balance, the weights sent the other side of the scales up, causing flaps to open. Laser sensors recorded those openings, and blew off bulkheads protecting the whole compartment from the vacuum of space. The balls, forgotten by the onlookers, were flushed out as the air rapidly evacuated the chamber. A few hit yet more levers, each one of them completing a circuit that caused a computer to be powered up. The computer then ran a program coded using the Spaghetti language, most definitely named for turning your brain into spaghetti. The program caused the computer to electrically flip a lever (Using 200,000 lines of code). That lever sent a single ball rolling, which hit a button on a conventional drink dispenser which did its job perfectly by dispensing coffee into a cup. That cup was then picked up by newly elected CEO Robert McClain, who had been nominated by Dmitri and Fergus mainly because he seemingly held true to the economic values of the humans. He was a McClain after all. The Scots-Irish clan had always held true to the (mostly) Socialist ideals of Fergus McClain.

"Ladies, Gentlemen, those who do not wish to be put into either category. It is my honor to take my place was CEO of the Terran Manufacturing Conglomerate. I promise to bring glory to our company, because we can't make more profit than other companies due to our stu-... stupendous economic system! Now, let me tell you. This job is going to be so much better than my old one. Why? Because this is a manufacturing company, we build things. We're the builders that create things that the thinkers dream up, for use by the doers out there in the field. People like my brother Fergus, fighting for our great nation's allies. Of course, you'd never hear him call himself a doer. He fashions himself as all three at once!"
The room laughed, well, the Ethra'Hirel kind of hissed, but due to neural updates everyone recognized it as nothing more than a unique laugh.
"This contraption that just delivered me coffee represents something. it's not what we're going to do, so don't worry about me being some kind of insane Rube-Goldberg enthusiast. Well, I am, just not the insane bit. Anyways, that contraption represents the current way of doing things. I plan to streamline the process a bit, but also add in some more quality control. Because this coffee tastes like molten metal and diesel fuel. If this coffee was a starship, it would have been destroyed by now, probably by something dumb like a Fath compression accident. The ships built under my plan will be much safer, like coffee that tastes like it didn't go through a decompression incident!"
