Not quite yet. I should probably set it up sometime soon, though.
Ah, sadly, something came up and I might not be able to join.

Noble Arms is now either four years old, or three years and eleven months. The third thread had lasted for more than one year.

My Roleplay, Noble Arms: The ASEAN War, will reach its 4th year in June or July. It's been a long journey.

Sorry about this, but something came up and I might not be able to join; sorry.
Boop!
OOC thread has been made?
Ken Illustrious Ikari and Hajime Sakurazaki
It was just as simple as going to Ken's apartment, introducing himself, and being let in after a security check for Hajime to meet his liege, and now the two were playing videogames together, casting aside all distinctions of rank, linage, and even status as Gifted and Non-Gifted to play a fighting game as equals.
For a brief moment before meeting him, Hajime had been fearful that he might not be able to accept Ken as his liege, that the other teen might be somehow unworthy of his trust and allegiance. But now, after an hour of enjoying himself with snacks and testing out various characters and strategies, Hajime was hooked on the prospect of serving his friend for life.
Ken had been lonely. Unable to connect to people due to his damned pride, valuing his position (claimed and actual) too much, and in the end, giving up on his pride in order to just play with a commoner - Without even a Gift! - like him because he was tired of driving out his human connections due to the subconcious belief that he was better than others. Or at least, that was what Hajime inferred from what Ken had said about Reverio and Chinami and his failed attempts at making further connections.
Hajime was no sage, he was a fighter first, philosopher later. But he could see that Ken had let his ego get the better of him, but had taken the big and bitter step (to him) of just stepping back and addressing a fellow kid as an equal. And he had been the first to receive such an honor.
"Ken," he spoke once the 'playdate' ended. "Do you really want the throne? Wouldn't you rather live as a Rhean Citizen and let others do the hard work of fixing the world and keeping it fixed?"
His liege - No, his friend - nodded and said, "To be honest, I do. A Rhean citizen has a worry-free life compared to the Emperor of a developing country. And my life since claiming the throne has given me a lot of worries." Then his face hardened a little, "But Izumo's citizens do not have that luxury; they don't even regard themselves as citizens; they're farmers, peasants, tenants, peons... They have no formal stake in their own nation. I plan to give them that stake."
Ken then laid his head back and said, "But I want to be my true self first. And if that means talking with you like an - No, as an equal - Then that's all there is to it. And I can declare you my equal - I'm the Legiitmate Emperor of Izumo; I have that power."
This caused Hajime to blurt out, "I... I loved the idea of you. I always thought you'd be handsome and charming and... And you are. Does being your equal mean you'd be mine, just as I am already yours?"
Ken turned off the game console and said, "I give myself to you, completely and utterly, just as you gave yourself to me, completely and utterly. Hajime Sakurazaki, you have my full permission to court me... bethrothed."
And they kissed; that was all there was to it.

4/13/2023 - It seems this RP Idea might be servicible.
So… when we get another person, when do you all want to start?
Maybe a few days after we get one? Three to four?
@Letter Bee For OCs related to canon characters, if there’s a player who’s using the canon character, it might be wise to ask them about if they want to have any OCs related to their canon or directly know them. Other than that, OCs that are children of canon characters and who are related to them are allowed.
@Evergreen Pine I’m going to be playing as some characters as well and there were three main roles in my last draft of a lab Roleplay which were scientists, experiments, and misc. roles such as research assistants, medical staff, and the sort. Also, I’m hoping to get around potentially at least 5 people including myself to start but the roleplay will also still remain open for a little while as well.
How 'evil' are the scientists? Are they conducting unethical experiments?
Yep! Both canon characters and OCs are permitted!
What about OCs who are related to Canon Characters or even their children?
Are OCs permitted?
Mission Two: Siege of Mischief Reef
Municipality of Lingayen - 10/11/2022, 6:08 UTC+8
Noel nodded and said, "That last part is true, Ms. Qingshe, which is why we're also bringing in a recent addition to the Government's ranks; a Special Agent who fought alongside me in the deposition of the previous President after his treachery was exposed."
To tell the truth, his feelings about that man were... confused. On the one hand, Myron seemed like a decent person; certainly of help in the foundation and consolidation of the Government of National Salvation. On the other hand, he was a former terrorist, one who had murdered Arms Masters like himself before becoming one in turn. Nevertheless, as he looked towards the back of the stage, theatrically gesturing in their newcomer, Noel would not mince words as he spoke, "Members of Task Force Obsidian, let me introduce to you Special Agent Myron Makaraig, former normal person, former normal person terrorist, and murderer of Arms Masters through backstabs, poison, and overall treachery before growing a Noble Arm himself and applying for amnesty."
As the young man, with glossy, gelled black hair, walked in, his dark blue suit and leather shoes were immaculate as he entered the stage. Seemingly unfazed, even proud of the insults that Noel had hurled towards him, Myron turned, faced the stage, and bowed towards the group for a moment before getting up and facing Qingshe, Kaitlyn, and Ayahime with a smile as he said, "Greetings. My name is Myron Makaraig, a former member of the Disablers; we claimed to stand for normal people against Arms Master supremacy, and I used my cute looks to lure Arms Masters in all protective so that they can be shot, stabbed, or even blown up - I can resume doing so at any time as long as I stay handsome."
His grin widened as he continued with relish, "Don't worry, as an Arms Master myself now, you don't have to fear that from me... Or do you?" he chuckled a little, before manifesting his own Noble Arm, a small circular shield. "This is Inpormasyon, aka Information. It converts objects and people into data and can transfer them through electronic communications like radio or the Internet. That means that if the enemy does not have a firewall or an antivirus, I can literally email you guys to their ships after your twelve hours of preparation are up."
Looking at Qingshe, then Lotus Squadron, Myron answered the question on air support for his young... friend(?) by saying, "The Philippine Air Force will be deploying its six remaining KAI-T50 - FA-50PH Variants - to aid Lotus Squadron, while Indonesia will be sending out the same number of Dassault Rafale jets. I know it's inadequate, but with all due respect - We're the underdogs here; we lack equipment and despite the fallout from the Crisis of 1988, China has spent a lot of resources lulling us to sleep and our military doctrine was oriented towards fighting... Internal enemies."
Noel decided to pop Myron's bubble with a well-pointed remark, "Yes, yes, we know you were there when the Hammer and Disablers were using our country as their sandbox for developing terrorist tactics. Moving on..." He responded directly to Qingshe, "We know that the Chinese know and we anticipate treachery en route to the ship and on the ship itself. That's why we gave Myron an amnesty; he's at least a countryman and he knows how skullduggery works."
Qingshe then received a message from a secure channel; it was 'His Imperial Majesty', Jin Li of the House of Aisin Goro, aka the Qing Dynasty's clan. It said, We've established an internet connection to the outside. The window is 25 - 30 minutes. Has Myron introduced himself already? If so, suggest to our allies that they should go to where we are right now; make the idea sound like your own.
Myron has already packed the supplies we need.
Noel then looked at Callie and finally gave a response to her words, "Approved. I suggest Volunteers Makri and Dorn, or possibly Nil, but we may need the latter to defend either the ship or Mischief Reef. I can also go myself if we really need someone who can bring on the pain..."
Looking at Princess Fukuyo of Japan, the young man said, "I can also form a team with you, if needed; you performed well against Huo Ren."
Then he turned to acknowledge Second Lieutenant Larsdottir and said, "Indeed, we should talk in private - I'm sure that you and I would fare better without the company of our... Amnestied friend. That, and I am under the impression that the enemy has probably guessed the bare outlines of our plan, even if their Intelligence Services weren't up to snuff - Which they are. So it would be best if only the two of us - And maybe Qingshe - know what contingencies to set up."
That said, he did have to give away some facts about 'Valkyrie', just to assuage Lotus Squadron and how they're only getting 12 extra Jets as their support, and so he told them, "Second Lieutenant Larsdottir also doubles as an aerial asset, one optimized for reconnaissance and interception. She can keep up with a dedicated aircraft at speed, and her smaller profile means that she can get into areas that larger objects can't. Not just that, but her affable and friendly personality allows her to work with almost anyone - I think you'll all like her."
As for Myron, he was looking at Callie with what seemed like shock, and an adept enough observer could see that his hands were trembling. He was not paying attention to Second Lieutenant Larsdottir right now, due to his focus on the blonde. Then the young man tore his gaze away from Callie and towards a newcomer - Iker Orozco, right? - before saying to him, "Volunteer Orozco. I will need your help in arranging contingencies as well."
If you can swallow working with a former terrorist and war criminal.
Then Noel answered Nico's question, "Honestly, it would probably be evening, yes, unless there is a way to hurry up the engagement. Note that it is perfectly plausible the relief mission can take place over multiple days, so we'll need both of your Noble Arms' modes."
As for what Nico said next, Noel visibly cringed and said, "Listen, we know when we can afford to be loose-lipped with valuable information and when we can't. With all due respect, I don't think you know the same - What happens if I order you to accept the Seven Virtues' offer? I'm not going to do so, but have you ever thought what would happen if I was the sort of person to do that?! And please don't reveal the name of the one who invented the Occult Programming Language, which is the source of Noble Arms and other forms of Magitech, to us all - Not that it isn't too late now!"
He sighed, "Change of plans. Myron, convert as many of us as you can into data - We're going to the Spratlys now before any spies realize they got a larger windfall than they already expected to have..."
