The War of the Three

@BCTheEntity

Your idea seems considerably complex and we already have a lot of hybrid characters in the RP, actually more than we have of pure "single type" ones. I can't say for sure if I'll approve of it or not before taking a proper look what what you do with your character's backstory/powers.

That said, I can say that a simpler character would be much easier welcome than a complex interfaction composite. Also, you are more or less free to work with Harpy lore (especially in Syphax's regards, since he's not relevant anymore). It was never an official thing that us GMs did. As long as you all can reach an agreement, that's ok on our side.

The War of the Three

@Inner Demon

Zac continuing or not on his adventures will depend on what happens to him right now. His choice wasn't the smartest one, so it's may end up having consequences, just as we said.

The War of the Three

"Hehe, we have plenty of open space around here," Diana replied to Suparna's comment. "With most of the people that live around here having wings or being generally on the huge side, that's a given," she added while taking a moment to look at Ananta and her congregation of infants.

Diana waved to the small angelic beings, smiling as some of them returned her greeting. A moment later she grabbed Suparna's hand once more. "Well, I guess we should go find a place for you to stay. There are a few vacant rooms in the upper part of Celestia, you'll probably really like them," she said. "Also, if you wanna find something about bodies, you should go talk to the Angel of Death. She probably knows everything about that. I can show you the way later if you want."

After saying that, Diana began to walk around Celestia, with Suparna in toll, looking for a room that the maggot girl would find enjoyable. On their way up a flight of stairs that lead to Deva's court, the two of them crossed the way of a woman dressed in a regal uniform.

"I wonder who that one is? It's been a while since I have seen new people around Celestia, but it seems like that things are changing slowly," Diana commented idly, after replying to the woman's nod. "Maybe everything will be really better from now on," she added as Suparna and she continued in search of a proper room.

Meanwhile, Farris Aran, the captain of Deva's royal guard had just arrived back in Celestia after a long campaign in the name of the Divine Imperator. She crossed the way of Diana and her newest companion, nodding politely to them as she made her way to the Imperator's court. The knight wondered how this domain would be different from their homeland? If the fact that the former rebels that threatened to destroy all that they stood for, found a new way of living in this realm, Farris was certain that her choice to heed to the Imperator and the Court's words wasn't a misguided one.

The Herald of the Thundering Warcry was a woman of resolve, after all. Once she made her mind to follow a cause, nothing would change. That was just who Farris was. And she wouldn't like it to even be different.

"I have finally finished my duty, Divine Imperator," Farris said as she came into Deva's court, where the Imperator presided over the Will of Heavens with envoys such as Iona, the Dark Archangel and Juno, the Snake of the World, aiding in her decisions. "I'll be glad to be at your service once more. For me, there could never be any greater reward."

"Your allies are more equipped to answer the question of whether it's customary for me to reward the efforts of our troops," Eos replied to Henry while gesturing toward the others before her. "Nevertheless, I'll also handle sanctions in the same way, if your performance is anything less than perfect. I hope you understand that."

"Regarding your questions, swordsman," Eos turned to Bonesword once more, "A castle on the outskirts of Hyperion is definitively out of question. It would damage the city's architecture far too much. Nevertheless, I have a place where I can allocate the two of you to." Just as Eos said so, a holographic projection of Hyperion appeared behind her. A blinking dot marked a specific building which was the zoomed in, revealing the location to be the city's most prominent entertainment center, the night club/hotel known as The Nile, a gigantic pyramid of black glass and steel whose bright lights shone like a beacon, piercing Hyperion's nearly perpetual night. "The Nile has been recently finished, you cannot find better accommodations in Hyperion than its rooms. It shall serve both of you well. That said, your experiments still have to be conducted out of the City or inside of a safe zone. We don't need any more nuisances with rogue B.O.W.s."

"Regarding Alexi. There are no buttons to open any of the palace's doors. All of them are automatic and will open for those who have the appropriate authorization. The main entrance has free passage for all Machina citizens. It's impossible for her to be stuck there. All that she has to do is walk toward it for the gates to open," Eos answered the question about how Alexi could get stuck in an automatic door. A moment later, the High Queen summoned a holographic control panel and pressed a button. "That said, even if she still doesn't make it, this shall work," Eos said, as she commanded the doors to open.

The holographic projection of Hyperion changed to alert mode a moment later as bright red lights began to scan it. A satellite image zoomed at in at what looked like a meteor crater right outside of the city, with a redheaded Angel rising up from it. A second scrolling feedback had all the data the Machina managed to collect about Zac, especially the result of the analysis of his performance at the battle of Arcadia. Eos could only attribute the lapse in Hyperion's surveillance systems to the fact that Henry's presence put the whole city on red alert until just a few minutes ago. Worse than that, the overeager troops of TEP decided to take the issue into their own hands, instead of alerting their Queen as it was to be expected.

"That came in a perfect time, to say the truth," Eos said to herself as she turned to Bonesword and Henry. "The two of you are going to be deployed at capture or eliminate that Angel before it can cause any form of damage to Hyperion or come into contact with sensitive information of any form. This shall be your first mission as a team. The remainder of you are going to stay here, ready for action, in case any more unforeseen situation arises," the High Queen commanded.

@Lmpkio

Just to remind you of this collab: https://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/4345706. So, TEP is in Hyperion, in the city's outskirts, at Graf's abandoned warehouse. I hope you don't forget this another time.

@Inner Demon

As for Zac, we have already decided how to deal with the situation. Jus make sure to know that he's in Hyperion right now, even if at the city's outskirts.

The War of the Three

@Silvan Haven

I guess that I have an idea for Saef to get someone to talk to. Or at least an event or other that could happen in Celestia that you can have him wander into.

The War of the Three

PS:
@Inner Demon

I hope you at least ask us before doing that sort of post again in the future. After all, you had a meteor land on the vicinity of Hyperion, inside of the Machina territory without either telling us in advance or allowing the Machina troops to defend themselves. "Secret Plans" from the part of the players usually end up in frustration to the GMs, when we have to deal with the fallout of whatever is it that happened. Especially, if we have to demand any edits or take unsavory measures in the IC, to keep things going according to logic. Please, really ask us before doing that again. Anyone here knows that we are being as flexible and accommodating to Player's ideas as possible, so it's likely that we can find a way to fit anything you may come up with.

@Lmpkio

You should know that TEP is located inside of Hyperion now. Eos gave them a base in an abandoned complex (Grafdaka's old warehouse/workshop that Hibiki disabled) under the supervision of the Mecha Maids. Any wasteland Zak crashed into is a wasteland right outside of the Machina Capital, not just the TEP HQ. I've placed a mention about the rest of the Machina troops working with Karizawa in my previous IC post. Please, don't tell me that you have forgot about that as well.

@TheWindel and I will have to take a better look at both of your posts and decide how to react to it IC. Meanwhile, the two of you can already edit your posts to make sure that Hyperion is where it should be and that Zak crashed outside of the city, otherwise, he'd be dead by now.

The War of the Three

@TheWindelI'm adding Bindlebane to Zak's weapon arsenal in the CS. Is this alright?

@Inner Demon

That should be no problem. The original owner of that is hardly going to complain about it, after all.

By the way, I hope that you realize the size of the mistake you've made by having Zak invade Hyperion (where TEP's HQ had been moved to). Just to be sure that we are on the same page.

The War of the Three

Just to make things clear. Eos didn't called forth anyone else because she's just talking to the people that made part of the Oblivion Dungeon event.

The War of the Three

At the border of the Hell's domain, Victoire finally came back to her castle. The Blood Countess had just come back from a trip outside the Nexus, courtesy of the deal she made with Helena right before the battle at Oblivion Dungeon. What she actually did out there was anyone's guess. Nevertheless, Victoire looked confident for whatever reason...

"What the name of Hell is this!?"

If she were drinking anything right now, Victoire would have spat it all over her Castle's throne room or whatever else of it still stood, after a spaceship destroyed nearly all of her home. What began as a rather good night for the Countess quickly became a monumental frustration. "What have I ever done to deserve this kind of Fate?" Victoire asked herself while turning her gaze to the crimson moon above wondering what she did to get so much into 'Their' bad side?

Meanwhile, in the Hyperion, Eos listened to Wolf's declaration with an unreadable expression in her face. The High Queen stared down at the inquisitor wondering what he could have been talking about since the ones in command of that mission were the Mecha Maids. To turn things worse —perhaps?— Helena had successfully whisked away a number of the Machina forces throughout the Nexus. The only one worthy of Eos' special consideration was Lilian, who seemed to never understand what the High Queen wanted out of her.

And, if this much wasn't almost enough to cause even Eos' stoic mask to slip momentarily, there was also a really big issue to deal with. That issue being the Silver Eyed Demon walking through the streets of her city along with Bonesword.

"That's enough," Eos said as she began to slowly pace back and forth. A moment later her eyes flashed a bright bluish silver as the High Queen used her powers to summon a few individuals straight to her Chambers, instead of relying on them getting here on their own. "Hear me, Endian/Krieg, Bonesword, Henry Avaritia as well as the Meido twins. By my power as the High Queen of the Machina of Mankind, I summon you to my presence!"

A moment later all of them would find themselves standing right beside Wolf as the Queen continued to slowly walk from side to side with her hands crossed behind her back.

"First of all, I have to thank you for your efforts at the Oblivion Dungeon. The enemy you fought is a being in a completely different scale of power than almost anyone in the Nexus. The simple fact that you have returned from the battle is enough to warrant a commendation," Eos said as she continued to walk, occasionally turning her gaze at them. "Not only that but, through your efforts, you have secured a powerful ally to fight by our side from now on. In face of such achievements, you have my gratitude as your ruler."

"Nevertheless, it's not prudent to trust a defector so readily. Thereby, I'm placing you, Henry Avaritia, on probation. You'll be placed under the watch and command of the most suited unit for this task. The only who won't be afflicted by any attempts of corruption that you may try to do, in case your intentions aren't genuine," Eos finally stopped walking and faced the group directly, "by this I mean that Bonesword shall be the responsible for your fate within our ranks. Conversely, your actions will influence his fate as well."

"As for you," Eos said to Bonesword, "I have commissioned a special reward. It's made uniquely for you, using KC-00032's top notch technology." As Eos said so, an android servant got into her chambers bearing a metallic case, which it opened before Bonesword's eyes, revealing a shinny metal and glass cylinder containing a few seeds floating in a green ectoplasm. "This is a prototype bio-weapon, it's called Vulcan Yew, it has the capability of turning into a powerful bio gatling gun capable of shooting poisonous, armor-piercing seed-like projectiles. With your abilities you shall be able to master it and fight against heavily armored targets."

"Sadly, I cannot handle any more upgrades at this time, for any of you. The past developments were too chaotic even for our capabilities. KC-00032 is still undergoing heavy repairs. I hope to be able to repay you properly for your efforts after the next main conflict makes itself known."

"While on this matter, I have a request that both you cooperate with as well as keep a watchful eye on Doctor Karizawa and his TEP organization. Whenever possible do your best to act in tandem with them but always keep your eyes on the greater good of the Machina. The overall command of this joint task force will remain with the Meido twins. I have faith that you'll continue to use your wisdom in our favor."

"Is there anything any you would like to ask?" Eos asked of them before going silent, waiting for any possible questions.

That's ok by me. Your character looks quite alright.

Just wait for the other GMs opinions.
