Star Army (Roleplay) | comment |
"The Star Army Space Roleplay" is a Science Fiction Play-by-Post Game originally started in 2000.Taking inspiration from classic Space Opera series and Mecha Anime, Star Army is set in the Kikyo Sector, a small cluster of stars in an unknown galaxy inhabited by various human, transhuman and alien species. Originally a background site for the multiverse-roaming Yamatai Star Empire, the setting went on to become its own setting with dozens of players and over 6,000 of pages of user-created content.The setting features four main superpowers that arose due to the fragmentation of the Yamatai Star Empire at several points in recent history. The four powers, of which three can be accurately called nations, are as seen below: The Yamatai Star Empire, a Japanese and Norse-themed utopian society composed primarily by the genetically-engineered all-female Nekovalkryja and the more human bioroid Yamataians. Generally considered to be a benevolent if slightly belligerent superpower in recent years... as long as you don't make an enemy of them. Takes heavy inspiration from Space Opera and Humongous Mecha series such as Martian Successor Nadesico and Bubblegum Crisis. The Democratic Imperium of Nepleslia, an Americanized 0 CyberPunk society inhabited largely by [[HollywoodStyle Hollywood Cyborgs, overmuscular ID-SOL Super Soldiers and gun-crazy everymen. Previously a junta that legitimized itself and instituted universal healthcare, brought (relative) peace and order to the streets and is more concerned with rebuilding infrastructure than conquering its neighbors. Thematic and artistic influences from Starship Troopers (both the novel and movies), Armored Trooper VOTOMS and Warhammer 40,000. The Iromakuanhe Astral Commonwealth, the national government of the transhuman Iromakuanhe. An isolated faction in the grips of a Civil War, that fields Organic Technology Humongous Mecha and Attack Drones as its mainstay instead of Powered Armor. Have one of the most comprehensive backstories and fluff databases on the site. In addition, there is an unambiguously villainous superpower known as the NMX or Neo Mishhuvurthyar Xhrafuklurp, a race of tentacled Eldritch Abominations that enslave, consume or destroy all in their wake. Known to warp the perceptions of their slaves and induce perverse and unimaginable pleasures and agonies, and making grits a part of their standard rations for conscripts. Conscript forces tend to have elements of the US Civil War-era Confederacy in dress and decorum. It was eventually revealed that they were a failed Nekovalkryja type that had been warped and twisted by Old Ones.Several minor powers have appeared over the course of the past few years, often written by a single hardworking writer with a lot of free time. These lesser factions are: The Abwehran Star Empire, the national government of the four-armed Abwehrans. Possess a strong naval tradition would do Honor Harrington proud, complete with boxy starships and relatively mundane science fiction weaponry. Influences heavily by the aforementioned Honorverse, as well as healthy dose of Grimdark. Considered one of the harder parts of the setting. The Lorath Matriarchy, a protectorate consisting of the Winged Humanoid Lorath race, who were previously ruled over by the YSE but banded with the UOC when it declared independence from The Empire. One of the few factions to retain slavery (in one form or another) after the formation of the United Outer Colonies, with no lack of irony. In addition to fielding extremely powerful mildly over engineered units, they also have a penchant for uniforms reminiscent of WWII Germany and Fantastic Racism towards the Artificial Human Nekovalkryja. The Freespacers, a race of nomadic pacifistic transhumans who coexist with AI and other synthetic lifeforms in a single large commune connected by a sprawling interstellar communications network. Possess short lifespans as a consequence of genetic adaptations to the background radiation of their haphazardly constructed vessels, and have a preference for railguns and [[]] nuclear weapons. Known to field implausible or insane designs that cause headaches or dropped jaws to staff and players alike. "You would understand too if your head was crammed full of wires." The United Outer Colonies, a utopian peacekeeper nation that recently broke off from The Empire, and seeks to bring peace to the Kikyo Sector. Japanese in flavor as with Yamatai, with some hints of the EU / UN and more Gothic ship and architectural styling. Generally considered to be a Lighter and Softer Yamatai, it caused certain setting elements such as slavery and Fantastic Racism to be toned down or removed altogether. | |

Star Army (Roleplay) / int_109b036e | comment |
The most common theory blames the Black Claw Empire, who took humans from their homeworlds as slaves. Both the Freespacers and Iromakuanhe are supposed to be descended from Ancient Astronauts with different origins from the other human types. Their origins are deliberately left ambiguous beyond this. | |

Chunky Salsa Rule: Scalar weapons are this, involving a massive discharge of electrogravitic radiation, causing volatiles such as explosives to be catalyzed and sensitive information transmission systems such as electronics and nervous systems to be violently destroyed. They also ignore armor, but not shields. | |

Empire with a Dark Secret | |
Star Army (Roleplay) / int_11dd3268 | comment |
Empire with a Dark Secret: Yamatai in spades, and the Astral Commonwealth to a lesser degree. Other governments haven't been around long enough to have any secret skeletons in the closet. Mishhu have plenty of atrocities under their belt, but they're hardly secret. The Lorath had a few dark secrets in their past,but just added a massive one with the wholesale genocide of a rebellious faction that had fled their homeworld. | |

Abnormal Ammo | |
Star Army (Roleplay) / int_12c65d9b | comment |
Abnormal Ammo: The Lorath specialize in this, followed by the Nepleslians and Iromakuanhe. For reference, the Lorath actually make a business of producing and selling specialized ammunition to buyers from allied nations. Rounds can be as simple as cluster warheads loaded with irradiated shrapnel or as exotic as Kaserine gel capsules and antimatter grenades. Nepleslians tend to have design units with a decent portfolio of specializations to play around with, and make them configurable with different types of ammunition. Includes huge giant blocks of metal accelerated to a fraction of light speed, explosive shells and white phosphorous grenades. Special mention goes to the HHG, a handgun that fires railgun, .45 caliber and hybrid rounds in a variety of flavors, and is one of the optional standard-issue sidearms for the Nepleslian Star Military. And then, there's the DeadEye, nothing less than a powered armor-carried missile launcher that fires a guided missile that contains a one-shot railgun to make pinpoint remote strikes on nearly any target within several thousand kilometers. Iromakuanhe artillery shells are something like this, with a 240mm cannon devoted entirely to firing these. Fungal spore and charged particle rounds allow a single target to ruin stationary equipment with minimal effort, and repulsor warheads can flatten large areas of city. | |

The Iromakuanhe are largely pan-Arab, but also feature Hindu, African, Southeast Asian and Aboriginal influences. Certain parts of their culture also have a Slavic twist, with a few Phenotype Stereotype characters popping up. Their aesthetic is more Post-Cyberpunk with an arabesque flair. | |

Feel No Pain | |
Star Army (Roleplay) / int_19211122 | comment |
Feel No Pain: Higher-class Neko types can turn their ability to feel pain off in combat. NMX zombies play this straighter since the bodies are usually too atrophied to feel pain by the time they enter combat. Iromakuanhe VANDR are LivingWeapons that lack pain receptors, although they can still perceive pressure and have a limited tactile sense. | |

Star Army (Roleplay) / int_1f137e42 | comment |
Artificial Limbs: Nepleslia loves this trope, and have a large number of Hollywood Cyborgs. To a lesser extent, the Lorath and UOC. The practice is unpopular among nations with regenerative medicine technology. The Iromakuanhe have 'Homunculus' symbiotes that are lab-grown replacement organs or limbs. They essentially function as Organic Technology artificial limbs, although they tend to be less popular than normal regenerative therapy. | |

I'm a Humanitarian: Mishhuu are as likely to eat their captives and rape and impregnate them. To a lesser degree, Nekovalkyrja CAN do this. But it's a rare event and frowned upon by polite Yamataian culture. Iroma VANDR can reclaim any form of biomass to repair themselves or refill certain weapons. ANY form of biomass. | |

Earth That Was | |
Star Army (Roleplay) / int_254a6a7d | comment |
Earth That Was: The original Earth has faded into myth, and the origin of humans and derived species is left ambiguous. The most common theory blames the Black Claw Empire, who took humans from their homeworlds as slaves. Both the Freespacers and Iromakuanhe are supposed to be descended from Ancient Astronauts with different origins from the other human types. Their origins are deliberately left ambiguous beyond this. Interestingly, the cradle of current human civilization, Damaisica, was glassed by the Elysians during one of several wars in the recent past. It was eventually terraformed as a preserve for the reconstructed remains of the Kohanian race. To clarify, that race was previously destroyed and brought back wholesale through genetic samples, and given Fake Memories to prevent a Heroic BSoD. | |

Beauty Equals Goodness: If you're a Yamataian citizen. Nekovalkryja are genetically engineered to be slender and beautiful, and possess the good qualities of a soldier, so they seem this way to the civilians of the society they serve. Otherwise subverted, since there are a lot of Ax-Crazy Neko. Played with in Nepleslia. Disfiguring scars and broken features generally imply that you were extremely badass, or not badass enough. | |

Dystopia: A softer version for the Democratic Imperium of Nepleslia. It's not the government's fault, but the fact they inherited a society that has had centuries of CivilWars and AlienInvasions shaping it into what it is now. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Played straight by the Avatars, now-defunct God-like AI that ran the ships of the Yamatai Star Empire during the early years of the RP. Otherwise averted by current-era AI, which are considerably more docile. Freespacer SI are self-aware artificial intelligences, gradually become insane as they become more intelligent. They also run the gamut from quirky and curious to reclusive and genocidal. | |

Casual Interstellar Travel: Played straight during peacetime, since the distances between the primary planets in-setting are quite small and the speeds fast enough to make hyperspace travel a question of a few hours at most. Subverted during wartime, when anti-FTL fields by roaming pirates and enemy fleets make travel between systems dangerous. | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture | |
Star Army (Roleplay) / int_57d43e40 | comment |
Fantasy Counterpart Culture: Yamatai is most definitely a mishmash of Norse and Japanese influences. Their name is even that of a country in ancient Japan. Nepleslia couples the ideals of AMERICAN FREEDOM and DUTY TO THE MOTHERLAND. The Elysians have clear Greco-Roman and Judeo-Christian influences. Their aesthetic is essentially Crystal Spires and Togas and Romanesque columns, and they feature a Gattaca-esque genetic underclass of non-purebred Elysian Plebians, lorded over by Archangel Elysians. The Lorath are essentially Catholic Space Nazis with strong Victorian overtones. Their caste system is reminiscent of Greek City-States, as their societies are more separate than stratified. The Abwehrans have a distinct combination of Enlightenment Prussian and British Imperial, having a constitutional monarchy, and houses for the citizens and nobility. Their ships are blocky, functional and efficient, enough to satisfy any German engineer. The Iromakuanhe are largely pan-Arab, but also feature Hindu, African, Southeast Asian and Aboriginal influences. Certain parts of their culture also have a Slavic twist, with a few Phenotype Stereotype characters popping up. Their aesthetic is more Post-Cyberpunk with an arabesque flair. | |

Dying as Yourself: Subverted. The Mishhu use specialized toxins to warp the minds of their victims pretty much at the first chance they get, which is any point where a character isn't armored up. Could still be played straight. Driven to Suicide when the situation seems hopeless. Subverted by Mishuu parasites. These instantly kill the previous occupant of a body, allowing the parasite to use it as a puppet. Despite being in a slow state of decay, they can initially present as normal people and work as infiltrators. | |

Extreme Omnivore: Iromakuanhe VANDR units feature a biomass reclamation unit that process nearly any kind of organic matter. Just don't think about it too much. The Mishhu themselves, who are as likely to rape and torture victims as eat them. This feature is a carryover from their true nature as a spin-off of the Nekovalkyrja, who had the ability to eat their dead. | |

BFS: Rarer than BFG's due to the harder nature of the setting. Include aether beam sabers, plasma beam sabers, plasma swords) and Vibrochainsaws. In regards to sheer size, they are topped by the 'Vector Transition Blade' utilized by VANDR units. A three-meter blade (that could be more sensibly named a sharp paddle made of aggregated diamond nanorods) that compresses space along its edge, allowing it to cut through the hardest substances. In regards to size, the Iromakuanhe have recently been one-upped by Origin, who have made a 7-meter long Vibrochainsaw. | |

Cultured Badass: Upper class Nepleslians rarely join the military, but when they do, this is the product. Special mention goes to the Ketsurui Samurai, who mix this with Cultured Warrior depending on how extreme their discipline is. Ryan Veles is the commander of the SMNIPG, and a wretched cyborg that barely manages to resemble a human corpse. He's also eloquent, commanding and completely evil. | |

Cargo Cult | |
Star Army (Roleplay) / int_8f746311 | comment |
Cargo Cult: Freespacers practice Mecha-Druidism, an anarchistic combination of ancestor worship and reverence for nature, IN SPACE! The Cargo Cult nature of this can be largely attributed to the fact that 'nature' is the starship a Freespacer lives on, and cybernetics from ancestors are often passed down to 'successors'. | |

Even more so for the Abwehrans and Freespacers. The former has boxy vessels that seriously under perform in nearly all areas except for armor, while the latter has ships that look like they were cobbled together from scraps and would not hold together under the stress of combat. True to form, Freespacer vessels do tend to fall apart in combat. But all the pieces are still working when it happens and might even fight back. | |

Messianic Archetype | |
Star Army (Roleplay) / int_c98b7916 | comment |
Chiharu is considered to be a Messianic Archetype by many Yamatian citizens. The religion built around her more distinctly resembles Shinto, however. | |

Star Army (Roleplay) / int_ca0ce0d6 | comment |
Comes Great Insanity: Averted for the most part, but played straight with Eve, one of the first Neko produced. She possessed powerful psychic powers in a setting that had since retconned them, and was considered nigh invulnerable. She was also an insane powermongering sociopath who killed and ate children and repeatedly tried to destroy the The Empire from within. | |

The Aesthetics of Technology | |
Star Army (Roleplay) / int_cd52fd56 | comment |
The Aesthetics of Technology: Averted for the Nepleslians, who field designs that are boxier than their Yamataian counterparts, and still perform on comparable levels. Played straight and subverted the Elysians and Iromakuanhe, due to Organic Technology. Their designs are sleek and quite powerful, although sub-par compared to Yamatai or Nepleslia in terms of overall performance. Even more so for the Abwehrans and Freespacers. The former has boxy vessels that seriously under perform in nearly all areas except for armor, while the latter has ships that look like they were cobbled together from scraps and would not hold together under the stress of combat. True to form, Freespacer vessels do tend to fall apart in combat. But all the pieces are still working when it happens and might even fight back. | |

Killed Off for Real Subverted by Nepleslia, which uses cerebral chips and brain spiders to preserve a person's mind and upload it to a new body if the head can be recovered. Subverted by Yamataians, who practice Brain Uploading. | |

Lorath Fyunnen Caste females are essentially a clan of Proud Warrior Race Girls. Nepleslian females are almost always this, of The Squadette variety. Origin Industries has shades of this, combined with Little Miss Badass | |

Glacier Waif: Neko tend to be lithe and small, but can take as much or more punishment than many of the more conventional super soldier races, coupled with a minor Healing Factor. Cranked up to eleven by higher level Neko bodies such as the NH-27, which can reattach a nearly severed head and seal wounds that have allowed their organs to spill out. | |

Absurdly Sharp Blade: The Ketsurui Katana possessed exclusively by the elite Nekovalkryja Ketsurui Samurai is a hollow monomolecular-edged sword made of unbreakable and virtually indestructible Zesuaium. Guides for producing melee weapons include a monomolecular edge, and the technology itself is common enough for any decently wealthy character to purchase one. For one reason or another, they've not quite caught on. | |

Interestingly, the cradle of current human civilization, Damaisica, was glassed by the Elysians during one of several wars in the recent past. It was eventually terraformed as a preserve for the reconstructed remains of the Kohanian race. To clarify, that race was previously destroyed and brought back wholesale through genetic samples, and given Fake Memories to prevent a Heroic BSoD. | |
