The Last Laugh

<Snipped quote by Nate1008>

Again, spooky voices and a mysterious trail of stellar empires and civilizations suddenly going poof do not look good on a diplomatic resume.

People don't trust voices they can't put a face to or know the source of and are often regarded as going insane or something similar. Even if you backstab a space faring nation, the very fact that you are their last known major contact before they suddenly disappear will make people suspicious and connect the dots. This is also assuming they're completely isolated and can't contact someone else for help when their allies suddenly turn on them. In addition, space is HUGE, unless you can destroy every ship in space before they can leave the system, there are going to be survivors.

@ClocktowerEchos

Yes, Yes, Yes. The Infestation does not care about their diplomatic stance. They have no use for allies and, if they cannot be trusted anymore, some infested will allow themselves to get captured. Later on in prison/lab/ship, they break out and infest it too, continuing its spread. They could not care less for their temporary allies and may abandon them in the middle of battle and make believable excuses to prolong their "alliance". In addition, they may Infest important people in a nation and pretend like everything is fine while the infested person changes things in law/military/information in negative ways. Basically political sabotage. Also, they want people to escape because infected people could be on the ships and can spread the plague even farther.

Just saying, having a history of backstabbing isn't going to make you a lot of friends. The entire fact that most people find infected beings to be repulsive/horrid/disgusting/etc already makes trying to interact with them hard enough. The two combined means that nobody is going to trust you enough to backstab. Having the end goal of eating everything in the galaxy is also a really hard sell to just about everyone. The Lucifern Hosts are going to see the Infestation as more of a threat than anything just like everyone else since they, just like everyone else, don't trust the people who want to eat everything including themselves.

@ClocktowerEchos

The Infestation does not use face com, witch means they can talk to someone, knowing who they are, without them knowing who called them. Also, the Infestation will not backstab a nation until they are 100% sure they can annihilate them entirely without any surviving witnesses.

The Last Laugh

@Nate1008@ClocktowerEchos So I'm not @Ozerath, but I do have an important question.

How will other players be interacting with those factions beyond just annihilating them? NRP games generally include strong political components on top of just waging war. There is more to a nation than just the military force, even if that's a component we'll see a lot of.

@Sierra

The Infestation may create temporary alliances for a while, but back-stab them later. Also, the Infestation may trade food for other resources anonymously, and may ally with other infestations like The Lucifern hosts.

The Last Laugh

The Infestation is controlled by a hive-mind. Some infested retain the ability to speak their original languages and some hosts can even still be able to talk.

The Fumes of War

ok. Thanks. I will be on discord soon!

The Last Laugh

Name: The Infestation
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Nation type: Minor Belligerent
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Overview:
Once a small virus trapped in an air pocket of the undergrowth of Acanta IV. Now, a flourishing plague seeking to infest all. The Infestation hates all that is not blighted by their plague. They see themselves as guardians of peace and unison with the power of a hive mind. Now, it is slightly participating in the war, but is too small to be noticed by the larger factions. Most governments think of it as a type of flu right now and believe the Infestation is just a tall tale.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
History
The Infestation was an airborne virus, trapped deep beneath the surface of a cave world known as Acanta IV.
When a mining colony dug into the pocket, the virus infested them and took over their home world in a few
weeks due to no military response and small resistance.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Major Holdings: Central Hive (located inside Acanta IV)
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Demographics: Infested: 80%, other races (prisoners/slaves): 20%
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Population:

The Infested is a vast set of different races, factions and creatures, smashed together to create a hive mind. The Infestation uses Infested for any kind of job, like military or tending to the hive.

Slaves: Slaves are, again, a vast set of different races. They are normally forced to work and become infested later on. Slaves are broken down. Mentally and physically until they cant fight back and feel like they should just submit to the hive as they work in harsh and horrible conditions.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Society: The Infestations Society revolves around the Hive Mind. The Infestation seeks to Infest everything and seek out the best way to benefit the hive mind. The infestation has no will on their own and cannot control themselves. They cannot do anything. Their soul is trapped inside their skin, and cant do anything as they watch themselves kill their friends and family and feel the pain of the injuries they endure.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Economy: The Infestation does not need many resources besides food. They eat, kill and infest any living creature.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Government: The Infestation has a rule system. A dictatorship. The Hive Mind is never replaced and is the main leader. The Hive Mind has created a pyramid of power and put itself on top. The Hive Queens are second most powerful and the Swarm Leaders are third.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Technological Information: The Infestation does not create tech on their own. Instead, they steal it from other races by infesting their tech. The infestation has no tanks for instance. Instead, they infest others tanks. then Infestation now has tanks.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Major Techs: The Infestation has no techs and cannot create them on their own.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Military Information: The entire populace of the Infestation is military. Solders, Civilians and animals alike evolve and adapt new biological weapons to use in combat.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Military Overview: All of The Infested is military. The Slaves are used as cannon-fodder, to weaken the front line and the Infested are used as the troops.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Fleet/Navy:

Dreadnoughts:

Infested Dreadnought: Basically like a dreadnought of another race, but infested. It takes a spore implant to infest one and has less hull integrity and less shield.

Battleships:

Infested Battleship: Basically like a Battleship of another race, but infested. It takes a spore implant to infest one and has less hull integrity and less shield.

Battle-cruisers:

Infested Battle-cruisers: Basally like a battle-cruiser of another race, but infested. It takes a spore implant to infest one and has less hull integrity and less shield

Cruisers:

Infested Cruiser: Basally like a Cruiser of another race, but infested. It takes a spore implant to infest one and has less hull integrity and less shield

Destroyers:

Infested Destroyer: Basally like a Destroyer of another race, but infested. It takes a spore implant to infest one and has less hull integrity and less shield

Frigates:

Infested Frigate: Basally like a Frigate of another race, but infested. It takes a spore implant to infest one and has less hull integrity and less shield

Corvettes:

Infested Corvette: Basally like a Corvette of another race, but infested. It takes a spore implant to infest one and has less hull integrity and less shield

Strike craft:

Infested Strike Craft: Basally like a Strike Craft of another race, but infested. It takes a spore implant to infest one and has less hull integrity and less shield
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Army/Planetary forces:

Infested: The Infested are classic Infestation infantry. They have no fear of death and need no water or oxygen and have no moral. They look like their original race that they were before they became infested, just with tentacles and extra flesh.

Infested Vehicle: It is a vehicle made by another race, that has been infested. Now controlled by the Infestation.

Swarm Leader: Swarm Leaders command swarms. There is only one in each swarm. It is like a super-soldier version of an infested that is larger and stronger than the others. If it is killed, the entire swarm retreats. Swarm leaders have small amounts of moral and have little will of their own.

Queen: A Queen is the leader of an entire hive. She commands the swarm commanders and produces spores that, if planted by an infested, slowly creates a new hive. Queens have large amounts of will, but have moral.

Hive-Mind: The center of everything. The Hive-Mind is a massive mass of Infested flesh and tentacles. It is the master of all masters. It has no gender, needs no food and has all the will of the swarm.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hyperdread

Infested Hyperdread: Again, like a Hyperdread made by another race, but infested. However, it takes 20 spores to infest one and takes several months. Removing these spores will stop the infestation. If it is already infested, you cant save it. (Unless you have the cure for the infestation.)

Race(s): (list the races that live in it.)
Location(s): (list the locations you are situated in. (real countries like Ontario or Switzerland.))
Economics: (list your natural resources that you are collecting.)
Population: (list the total population of your nation.)
Population ranks: (list your nations jobs, e.g: soldier, worker.)

That's it. Flag and map is optional.
