Well,it seems something else was found on the complex.

Is it treasure?Weapons?
Cryopods?

Ooc I'd say you should roll for the treasure because you found it

Greeting ambassadors, Gaxla is still at Yss so they have sent me in his stead. I am the first Avarian to do this in over a thousand years.

Rolled 67 (1d100)

A whole massive pile of treasure Carter. The real question is how much.
OOC rolling now

>The treasure room is massive and stacked full of gold and gems from hundreds of worlds. All of it looking ancient with much of the currency bearing a mark that hasn't been seen in centuries.

It seems there was another reason this fortress was so well defended.

>Shazerad takes a gold coin from the pile and studies it carefully
Wait a minute, I know where this coin came from. I commanded there when we invaded.

Huh.Wonder how much it's worth.
Did any of the pirates try taking it?

Where is it from General? And why would it be here?

We apologize for missing the last few summits.
Information was being assimilated into the Great Balance.

Standing by to aid in any Federation matters, please advise us as to any ongoing issue that we might assist with.

Standing by to transmit information regarding those whom I represent, I will not clutter this frequency with information that has not been requested.

A old world called Maxon IV, we invaded to test out new androids. We were given cover support by this fortress I recall, but the commanders order a looting of the treasures of the world.

No, Ploraxia stronk.
Anyways, they still have yet to arrive, so lets talk for a while. Hello there, it has been a long time. How goes the plague, I believe it is near eradicated, save for several hot pockets.

Holy... this, this was stolen, recently on Oker, our main financial planet. It is of the Ploraxian Banking Authority. Return it.

Hello.I don't believe we've met.I'm Carter,of the Carnem Wastes.

We isolated your plague.It was sentient and named Sally.

Any news?
Seems like a good invasion,then.
Wonder why you made gene soldiers when you had androids,especially considering your gene soldier's quality.

Why not just manufacture a ton of androids?It was your strong suit,and you likely had access to many materials.
Shazerad says it is from Maxon IV,from an invasion.

Also both are stronk.

Stronk, eh. Before the civil war, we used to outproduce the UE in almost everything. Now we only have a slight advantage. Anyways, this is from our banks. Here
>He shows the Ploraxian Banking Authority Symbol on the Gold Bar
See! This is our property. I formally request you return it.

Before you start another dick measuring contest, remember that not every race has one to measure.

Well they were a experiment, and we had millions of androids for almost every purpose. We never got to truly test them before The Fall.

Another thing. In the system of Khuzo, right next to us, we have completed the site for the federation ringworld, and this is no ordinary ring world. This will contain about 12 segments, it will be massive! not to mention all the habitats, defense stations, everything!

Ooc ready Ploraxian? And to refresh your memory this is what happened last thread:
>As he says this a mighty asteroid jumps into the system using it's haphazard thrusters to go full speed into the planets primary land mass. Thousands more of these strange asteroids jumping into the system. Coated in armor with strange weapons all over them. They divide up the Ploraxian fleet with the main body targeting the command squadron.
>3 Mega Dreads Hive ships 110pts
>4 Asteroid Dreadnoughts 80pts
>20 battleships 300pts
>50 Cruisers 500pts
>500 Corvettes 250pts
1,230pts total (I think)
Ooc special rules: For every 100Fleet power you are above 200 you get to role an additional d10 for damage.
Psi-Plasma Cannons: If the damage role is over 100 the Horde player can make one ship of their choice flee. Armor 3 with no shields as well for the Horde.
And dude try to be a little fair. Don't bring 70k ships to a fleet battle

Really?Where'd you get those numbers?This treasure has been here for a while now,and I've never heard of Ploraxia outperforming the UE.And you'd have to talk to Shazerad abo-
>Carter stifles a laugh
You know,she's got a point.
Yeah,okay,but was it your first experiment?Seriously,those soldiers are just good enough,and their pros didn't outweigh their cons before the cure.I mean,it's good,but the androids are way better marks of your craftsmanship skills.

Next time,remember to carry the 4.It helps with the protien buildup issue way more effectively.
Okay.Will the Avarians help?They have quite a lot of info on ringworld construction.

Ooc
Here's the rules,as well.

So,how's business?
Also,I had the bar stock seafood and drinks now.
Turns out,the Dukedom has amazing salmon.Or something that tastes like salmon.Sorry,just used to Old Earth expressions and stuff.

Well the station has beacon technology and is of Avarian production and since the General has seen these symbols before and knows about the fortress I am more inclined to believe him. And maybe before but with these new worlds and technologies from the Conclave War we have massively increased our technology.

Trips prove me right

...Seafood...?
Oh, let me guess, the Captain has been complaining about it.

Yes I know, personally I thought the idea was a waste of time. We should have developed more advanced androids instead of them.

A universal cure has been developed. It should work across the various susceptible species. Work continues on other common aliments, our people have very much found a niche in our ability to work with what are usually deadly aliments to generate cures. We have been using this generated capital to purchase ships that are capable of FTL travel, orbital stations on W'nai Beta-1, and your strange mechanized technologies. We are busy reverse engineering these into a form that can be grown by the Great Balance.

Yes indeed she has.
Carter can you confirm is the Federation paying for it this time? Hopefully that will improve her mood.

Not that I blame her... sigh. I can't be everywhere at once...

It is good to meet you, Ambassador. All delegates are welcome on W'nai Beta-1, and W'nai Beta-2. We are a very small faction, laying claim to only the four worlds in our system.

Do you know her anger with humans as well? She does not seem to have a favorable opinion on the UE and my species.

You don't spend a whole lifetime as a human in the Mahkra without figuring at least the biggest details, yes. Who would have thought? Still, they are pretty cool with single humans. It's human organizations that anger them.

Yeah,she was.
And yes,they're paying for it next cycle.I just payed for it up front.
I see.
Also,please do not cure the world in Rumar space.That is where Sally lives.The rest is fine,though.
Well,it definitely isn't a waste of time.Biotech is just as good as normal tech,after all.

But beyond biological ships,I doubt anyone else in this Federation knows how to really harness it.

You really should amp up android production.It is your strength.

Seriously,why does she hate humans?
Yeah,I guess.Inkito,do you have any other evidence backing it up?You may want to discuss it with Shazerad.

Ahhh well perhaps if the UE was able to pay her for her services it might ease her ire. We know our battles have interrupted her work so perhaps this can be compensation.

We have. The raw material available in the Dukedom is staggering, factories are being set up on all major worlds to help produce them.

That's something I never got around asking, of course. Her people respect my authority, and I don't pry in their past. For all I'm concerned with, 3 corsairs on 5 are Mahkravi and they perform well at it, so as long as they do keep the high standards they are expected to hold, I'm fine with their antics.
Sigh. Boy, we can't just sell out our fleets like that, we aren't mere mercenaries.

Well,then that's good.
What're you gonna use em for?Will they have rights?
Damn.I need to ask her next time,then.

>[Incoming signal]
>[Encrypting connection]
>Location: Dominion Earth.
>V.F.S Blade of the Cosmos
>12:45 Earth Standard Time.
>The signal that gets through is somewhat distorted but the Image of Director Markon is clear enough for people to recognize him in even with his combat armor on.
Hello Carter, Schimmel are either of you picking up this signal?
The Voidwatch fleets jumped into the Solar System and manage to link up with the Homeguard Armada. So far I've managed to achieve orbital supremacy but the Shroud Cabal forces have dug themselves in with only the Heirarch and Voidwatch armies on my side, and that's not going to be enough.

Yes,we're reading you.Do you require backup?I had an Imin keep watch in the Shroud for any Comclave forces,so that I can kill their minds while they're in there.

Also,did you have World War One in the Dominion?

Only the Warlord and Reapers, they are the only class capability of fully independent thought. The intelligence of the other units is relatively lower. They will fulfil the function of soldiers as they always have.

World War One?...Yes I believe I mentioned this before. And if you have some serious ground power I could use it my forces are only made up of 4 assault legions and 2 Gene Warrior armies no where near enough to take on the multi-million man armies that make up the EDF if it decides to move on a large scale to the capital at Rome.

Are they close to unleashing the Shroud?
We had one in the UE Carter but since the Dominion Earth must have split sometime in the 21st century it's probably safe to say they did as well. And the Allies won if you were wondering.

Parameters received, it would fly in the face of our beliefs to destroy anything that is in possession of the Spark, no matter how diverse their form may be.

Not that I know of. What I do know is that whoever wins this battle at the capital will be able to secure a large advantage against the other side. If we can find the Heirarch he can rally large segments of the Dominion away from the cabal...but if he's dead they'll blame it on me and we'll have to face almost the entire might of the Dominion.

I can send a couple thousand of these.Would they do?

Also,do either of you have record of Carter Williams,a man who served in WW1.I ask because earlier a Ploraxian agent said some descendants were from the Dominion,and they came to visit,but I am wondering if they are related.
Thanks.Although I don't kniw what you mean by Spark.
I see.
Good that you'll make them good soldiers.If you ever need tips on biological tech,you can ask.The Wastes has got that down to a T.

We'll see. But this news of a impending battle? Is it the humans?

What exactly do they do?

It is our experience that most call this Sentience, or Sapience. Our translators are very new in construction.

They're scavengers from the Wastes,like our version of cockroaches.They use their tongues to burn off armor,then consume the organs.Can take on 12 men each,and are resilient to firearms.

I can send them in cages,then kill them once the battle is over.
Yes,it is humans.Turns out humans have changed since my day.Now they're engaging in a civil war or something over psionics and its supposed Divinity,as well as over Shroud entities.
Well,I don't see an issue with killing something with sapience.What is your species,by the way?How do you look?

Hm, will we need to assist in this battle?

You'd have to ask Markon,but I believe so.

Very well. That one eyed pysker also gave me information to pass onto you about humans and shroud beings.

Our forms are wide and varied, though there are some trends that run across morphological lines. Our species appears to be fairly unique in that we came to the art of Weaving - what others have called the manipulation of the code of life - very early. It has shaped us deeply. A good portion of our reverence for those in possession of the Spark is that - before we breached the stars - any who had it were distant relatives, no matter what their form.

I myself am an offspring of Lod, one who gave birth to many of the faction which seek to venture forth among the stars. I stand roughly two meters tall, am bipedal, and have four manipulation appendages. The children of Lod are generally gifted with the ability to speak in foreign tongues with greater ease than others on our world who posses the Spark.

Upload of dossiers regarding additional data on our species is available upon request.

The archives come up with one man under that name. They note that he went missing and no body was ever found. I can do a search for relatives but the United Empire is a big place you must understand. And the Ploraxians love sticking their heads in the business of other nations.
Well while we can't deploy any army groups a naval strike force is currently carrying 3,000 Sons of Mars in heavy power armor which I think would be very useful in this situation.
Ooc got work so see you all later dudes

Dozens of EDF legions are advancing on the capital region if you can teleport them near along the routes to harass them it will buy us time.
Anything you can give will be appreciated send them towards the Capital City HQ.

This seems interesting, should the Dukedom contribute assistance?

Okay.
No issue then.I ain't missing now.Just was checking,since the Ploraxian said I wasn't on your Earth either.

I guess I was just the only me to survive the Wastes.
Really?What?
Okay.
Ooh,you know genetic engineering.Are you good at it?And yes,a dossier would be greatly appreciated.
Understood,they'll warp in in 2 minutes.

I think they'll do more than harassment.

Weaving is how we have evolved as a species. It is entirely fundamental. All things - clothing, tools, dwellings are grown (not built, as it appears most other species do) on W'nai Prime.

I do not know how our abilities compare to others, but they have served us well. Uploading relevant information from an external databank, please wait.

There has been a huge increase in the number of humans entering the Shorud, and several are still there. He told me to report their locations to you.

If you have an interest in stopping Extra Dimensional beings from rending the fabric of reality. I would recommend sending aid to Dominion Earth.

I see.Then we share similarities in that regard.I'd like to see how advanced you are at this.As far as I knew only the Wastes had really mastered biology.

Now I see others have mastered it as well,or so I hope.Perhaps you take yours in a different direction,but I am glad to find a fellow biologist here.
Okay.Are they asking for contracts?

The Art of Weaving was gifted to our people early, and with it a variance in morphology that seems to be unusual among the peoples of the universe. This lead to great conflict as to which form was best, for many, many years. Eventually, the Doctrine was established, and with it the Balance.

Currently, our home world's three continents now represent the major divisions in morphology and philosophy among our people, those with the Spark. I represent the Malok, who desire learning and mingling with the people of the galaxy. We are the most populated faction at this time. There are also the Hunters, the Ori - who have developed themselves in representation of the dominance that Weaving can bring. Finally, there are the Yie, who have disappeared into themselves, and joined with the land itself.

Interaction between our people occurs along a long chain of individuals. Divergence in morphology has happened to a greater or lesser degree across the entire planet, but communication is still possible with those who are more closely related - so long as they still possess the Spark.

Representatives from other species are most welcome on the two colonized worlds of our system, but for their own safety are forbidden from intrusion onto the home world. Pheromone signatures would mark them as prey to the Ori, and for absorption into the Yie.

Please select any particular topics which interest you from the condensed dossier provided above. Further illumination will be provided.

Very well, we will contribute. Due to the severity of the situation, the entire Army of Segment Nortus has been deployed, along with the 1st Murder fleet.


Yes they are bargaining with malevolent deities in the Shroud. It would be best to kill them before anything happens.

Yeah,just gimme a sec.I'll go murder em all.
Weaving and morphology,please.
And the Ori and Yie.

As you wish. Cultural exchange has been approved.

The Great Art - as it is known - of Weaving has been with our people for millennium. Our earliest records have been lost since the First Cataclysm, but as far as our historians can tell it was inherent to those from which we all stem - the Fathers. To those of ages past, the gift was believed to originate from some God-form or other. Much fighting and many lives were lost in that, perhaps the greatest debate. Modernity and sophistication of our scientific methods have revealed that those still capable of Weaving secrete a complicated series of enzymes, life-code altering bacterium, and other chemicals which render flesh into a form that is pliable for a time. More than this - it allows for the incorporation of other life-matter into the being which is being Weaved. The change is systemic, rapidly passing through the entirety of the affected organism, even to the point where alterations will be passed to offspring.

Though the variations that Weaving have brought forth could be theoretically infinite, there are trends which run along major morphological plateaus. Those born of the same family or clan tend to keep closer to the form that they were born with, only a few choosing to divert into an entirely new segment for fear of no longer being able to meaningfully communicate with their brothers and sisters. Since we reached out to the stars, several clans of the Malok have Weaved their forms to more closely relate to what they view as a lost family, creating several new layers of morphological strata. This was done in part so that they may pass unhindered through the stars, and form a closer bond with all members of the Federation.


Stand by for upload regarding Yie and Ori.

The Ori, for the most part, are not interested in anything beyond the Hunt. It is something of a religion for them, I gather. Their forms are savage, and their methods of cornering pray are as varied as the Malok's capability for communication. Those who have taken an interest in the stars mainly originate from the clan Fuon. Not much is known of them, but I have witnessed a Hunt of theirs. Members of their clan exude a gas which has hallucinogenic properties to incapacitate prey, blanketing an area of roughly a mile radius over a period of days.

Those who we call the Yie are capable of incredible long life, and spread themselves over vast distances. Within the reach of their scope, they are capable of direct and indirect Weaving of the Great Balance. They are what some may call the floral morphological plateau of those with the Spark. Generally speaking, those of the Yie are made - that is, were once Ori or Malok. Some are born, however, but these generally lie beyond our ability to communicate with. Many of our people tread carefully on greenery, not knowing if it possesses the Spark or not.

Limited information is available regarding the daily lives of the Yie. Their thoughts move much more slowly than ours, but they are kind. They are the keepers of our world, and what revelations of new Weaving patterns are discovered by the Ori or the Malok are spread across it by the Yie - if judged to be worthy.

Reminder that the Dukedom is not xenophobic

That is good.I was beginning to think that no one here had harnessed genetic engineering,but I am glad I am wrong.It sems I have finally found an equal in this field of research.You'd have a field day in the Wastes,what with all the different lifeforms and biological phenomena there.I hope we may exchange methods and findings,someday.

As for the Ori and Yie,they seem rather interesting,to say the least.The Ori sound a little like the Rumar.
The Yie seem wise,I guess,though I was never one for pacifists.Not stepping on grass seems overboard,no offense.
Yeah,they just don't want you living in the Dukedom if you aren't avian.
It's not xenophobia,it's selective rent.

Anyways,I am afraid I must go for an hour or so.I need to kill those humans in the Shroud.

We recently concluded a cultural exchange with a sect of priests, whose name escapes me. Their people are an association of bipedal reptiles, colonizing several belts of asteroids. They were in possession of a great revelation, a Seed which allows rapid terminating of lifeless worlds. We were able to increase its efficiency through our Art, and will gladly pass along our discoveries to you and the rest of the Federation.

During our communications, several members of Clan Ire have expressed interest in viewing your world. I propose an exchange of delegates. Those whom you send would be staying among Clan Ire, housed on W'nai Beta-1. Accommodations there have been modulated since we first joined the Federation to be most hospitable, and capable of housing the staggering multitude that others species possess. We number a little over a million, Malok, Ori, and Yie together. It shocked us, to say the least, when we learned that there are some in the Federation who count their people in the billions.

We await your answer.

>.I need to kill those humans in the Shroud
I see you are a man of reason sometimes.

why isnt this shit on /qst? I see it every day

because its not a quest its loose group RP
like /dragon/

how is that substantially different from "author-driven collaborative storytelling"? the simple fact of no obvious single author? seems sorta semantic

You are, familiar, alien. What world do you hail from?

it is kinda semantic but quests were banned mostly for being everywhere
as long as we only have one thread which we keep to ourselfs
and run that thread to the ground before making a new one
I think we are minding our own business and are fine

Why,can't you see the federation nametag? Doesn't matter. As the majority of the corsairs in our union, I'm from the Mahkra system.

I guess I still don't understand why this isn't on /qst if it's so self-contained and not bothering anyone

This system rings a bell. Has it changed much these thousand or so years?

...with due respect, general, we don't live that much. Furthermore, we almost never go near the system. Many Mahkravi are born and die without even seeing it- it isn't a pretty sight, anyway.

Nothing is Captain. Not when I was young, except Avar. Always the beautiful gem of the galaxy. Time is passing me by faster than I would like I fear.

Was there a meaning to your inquiry, or was it just an excuse to talk about the good old times?

Everything has meaning. I visited that system many times in the far past, I wanted to know how it was these days.

...were there humans in there when you visited? Or was there any civilization at all?

Life was, pre-FTL, there were prevailing civilisations, a few. Some of my kin wanted to wipe it and just colonise on the ashes.

Okay,I'm back.There were quite a few of them to kill.Don't know why they even go to the Shroud,anyways.There are way better alternate dimensions.
Well,it's true.The Dukedom is not scared of non Avians,and lets them visit and go nearly everywhere.It's just that the Dukedom is culturally significant to them,and they feel that only avians may actually live there.

You are a hige,yet you only consist of lobster like beings.That is not xenophobia,that is preference.
Either way,not like I care.Visiting is good enough for me.
Hello,Kalankhri.
How's business?
The bar was stocked with alcohol and seafood,though I think Adder might have already told you.
I mean,Avar is pretty nice.Though I wouldn't call it a gem,personally,especially because I don't like the coloring.
Eh,to each their own.
I am afraid I must refuse.

I mean,I already know everything there is about genetic manipulation,but I would like to see your culture.It sounds rather nice,and I can appreciate a species that enjoys the simple things while supporting a grand goal,like the Noo.

However,you cannot visit the Wastes.
It isn't a planet,it is a dimension,a tear in reality,and it is incredibly dangerous.The only reason it has not massacred the rest of the Galaxy is because only it's weakest and most normal residents and items may leave without decaying away.

If you came over,you would die rather fast.Perhaps next year,when Hematization occurs and it is more safe,but for now,I cannot willingly let you go there.

I can give you a dossier,and advise you on genetics as an equal,but that is all.I can't even bring artifacts from it to here,since last time I tried that a Hive was possessed and Vox was gravely injured.

Thank you,though.It is greatly appreciated.

Wow.
Your kin were kinda retarded.You could have instead pretended to be gods to them and played the best RTS game in existence.

Well, someone else did it in your steed anyway.
The Commander is...
... not the kind of person who would remember to notify her subordinates of such things.

dope RP

Ah you only see it in its darker days. at it's height, something I wish to see before I finally succumb to time once more. It truly was a gem.

Understandable. It's difficult for us to facilitate travel to W'nai prime, for the aforementioned reasons. I suspect with the dossier provided, we could have our diplomat's morphology altered accordingly. Ah, well.

If I remember correctly, a observation post got in trouble for doing something like this. The station divided into two teams and they sent down advisors with equipment for the primitives to fight it out.

It's like RISK with more genocide.
Well,not really.It's not that it is too hot or too cold.It is that it wants to kill nearly everything from outside,and can sense non Wastes creatures.No morphology could prevent it.However,I could give you the dossier anyways,and when Hematization comes,it'll be safe.
It's a google doc.Do you want me to post it?
Yeah,like that.It gets better when they find out what nucleur weaponry is.
Okay,sure.Just tell me when I can,I'd like to.
I guess.Maybe it will return to it's former glory.
Eh.I had to pay up front,but every cycle from now on it will stock it.

So,what uappened to your people?Why do you hate humans,and why was genetic tampering involved?

Hell yes, post it.

Here you go.
>Carter slides over a data slate.
It is kinda a work in progress,and I'm adding stuff and tweaking to get it right.Hope you like it.

We only found out about what was happening when nuclear explosions had begun to appear across the planet. The observation teams received a light punishment for their actions.

Every day you ask this, and every day, without fault, I refuse to answer. One would think you would have given up by now, Ambassador- why is it so important to you that you can't help but keep bringing it up?
