Add a character section to your app if you want.

Never mind. I think it would just be better to reveal it in the rp.

Imam start working on app. Waiting to see what the Brazil-based nation is like first since they're going to be based there.

Name- New Dawn Inc

Type - Scientific corporation interested in the development of humans into being part of the ecosystem of Brahma. Yes, scientific corporation, that is now a thing.

The nature of New Dawn Inc is very much based around genetic research, biotech and understanding the alien life of brahma. More recently they also have taken efforts in integration of the Tkrai and their anthropology.

They are a very for-profit organization, and often sell products like synthetic organs or some of the less dangerous wild life as pets. Usually they are a supplier, with only one known company store located in ______.

Outside of their consumer products New Dawn Inc is known to often take part in the understanding of Brahma in the name of integration of humanity to their new- and borderline only home. They have multiple outposts outside the safe zone, often situated in the southern regions of the planet and wherever a point of interest has been found [for instance any areas deemed to have high biodiversity or any evidence of historical batpeople civilizations].

Due to the hostile nature of a good share of the wild life, especially the mega fauna New Dawn Inc has made regular use of mercenary groups and free lancers to guard out posts and a few of their hidden tech firms. New Dawn Inc as of more recent has been making use of batmen auxiliaries whenever there's a shortage of hired guns. New Dawn Inc is not liked by the advocacy groups due to their constant experimentation on the batpeople and staunch refusal to let batmen work in any position that involves doing science or research. However, they still are known to employ the pips more than your average corporation.

Leader - Aldo Kimira [he be mixed heritage; part Hispanic and part east-asian]

History - New Dawn Inc has its roots in its leader, Aldo Kimira who as a kid lived on the colony world of Talos. Talos was notable for its tropical climates, fair weather, relatively high yet harmonious urbanization and being among the wealthier worlds terra formed in the golden age. Born from a rich family and heavily educated from birth he would find his passion in astrobiology. When the opportunity came, he went off world from Talosm leaving his family behind to explore the mysteries of the universe. In doing so, he would probably have grown to be just another plain astrobiologist.

But than came the Listeners...

For as the interstellar ship he was in was in the process of going to the outer colonies- the listeners struck. The news of the event caused the pilot of the ship to retreat off the normal course to where the listeners were not. As Aldo and the group he was assigned with, including the three other founders of New Dawn Inc found themselves fleeing to safety with a couple dozen others the colony of Talos was reduced from its near-paradise conditions to smoldering ash with what few stragglers left in the cave towns eventually dying from radiation poisoning. The only reason Aldo would make it to Brahma would be sheer luck- just being in a small expeditionary craft that happened to be able to get into the safety of a military squadron headed towards the only world that remains safe to this day.

[[to be continued later. Yes Aldo is a old person.]]

Alright, I'm working on an app right now, for a couple of things, but as I have hit some roadblocks, I figure it'll probably take awhile. I figure before I put too much work into it, I would run an idea past you, see if I'm wasting my time on this.

My main idea would be a security corporation, I kind of private organization to provide security to developing towns, cargo transports, etc. The corporation would have been founded by a group of military survivors, but later taken over by greedy big-Whigs, who turn the business into a corrupt corporation, squeezing pennies out from those foolish enough to turn to them.
I would have a separate character, an individual. My idea is having her being one of the founding members, attempting to overthrow the corporation for it's corrupt beliefs.

I've been playing around with this idea since I saw the Interest Check, but my main problem would it being too self centered. It would still be fairly easy for other individual characters to worm their way into this, but there appears to be a lack of that... Suggestions? Should I give that up?

Question, how many characters of one type of thing can you have. Like can you have 2 characters of one type.

What you could do, is merely write a NS for the cooperation in a NPC perspective, while you focus your sights on your CS. Then your new char would begin to "overthrow" the Security Corp, once the Overthrow is completed, just begin on the organization

I'm fine with this.

You can play characters that are affiliated to the mercs, or who are connected to them in some way. The person trying to overthrow them falls under "being connected in some way". So yeah, you're fine.

I'm only against people playing characters that aren't part of their group or associated with them in any way. Like if you took control of a politician in my nation. That would be a no-no.

EDIT: Interacting with NPCs is fine too. But if they are NPCs associated with someone's nation/organization, you should probably ask first, depending on the interaction.

I've had an idea. Can I have a colony outside the safe zone? Well, less a colony than horrible-idea-for-a-theme park, still under construction.

Complete. To do: Flag? Pictures? Integration with other players?
==================================================

)Name - Pratchapadri

)Summary in a sentence: Nation with a wealthy, pleasure-loving upper class, ostensibly "green" but completely condescending toward the dangers of Brahma, flagrantly abusing valuable resources, rapidly sliding toward an economic collapse.

)Location -

)Leader - Demi Kaan - A relatively young Chief Counsel of Pratchapadri, Demi often wonders if she's even necessary. Many of the problems that actually make their way up to her office have been boiled down to three choices: the obviously correct one, an obviously incorrect one, and what the National Party wants her to do. Very rarely do any of those choices coincide, but even more rarely do her actions matter. Honestly, she feels like an advisor to the other Counsels than the other way around, occasionally offering advice or a recommended course of action. She would ask the other Chief Counsels if this is how they felt, if any of them were alive. Indeed, the position seems to have a disturbing trend of death, whether accidental or otherwise. Only two Chief Counsels in Pratchapadri's history have died of old age.

)History -
Originally a district of the original colonization efforts, Pratchapadri grew into it's own not long after settling. The nation became known for its prosperous citizens, bustling central stock market, and fervent love of Brahman wildlife. The society welcomed Tkrai as equals, or at least claimed to. There was always a "learning gap" - many "batmen" had to learn human customs before being hired. Such customs tests were, while perhaps well-intentioned, poorly executed. Very few batmen ever rose above middle management, if they were employed at all.

Once the Listeners came on the scene, Pratchapadri welcomed the new immigrants with open arms and easy naturalization laws. As the population grew, new businesses expanded, and the nation entered an economic boom. A new class of citizens found themselves suddenly ultra-wealthy, making money off of the stock market - once they could afford to invest. The new class of citizenry could now afford more extravagent entertainment. Although very few ultra-wealth citizens actually engaged in such antics, all were equally fascinated by them. When you had trillions of rupheeds, even a 1% budget devoted to entertainment would result in vast expenditures. Extravagent balls, harkening back to a "bygone era of enlightenment"; charity auctions of priceless flora and fauna (whose charities were devoted to the preservation of the Brahman environment, of course); and vacations into the "Wild" Zone became all the rave.

All was not perfect, however. Many immigrants were exploited mercilessly, forced to work long hours with no reaks just to make a living. The robotic intelligences, expanded from the original colonization effort, felt threatened by the new wave of immigrants - they felt that they were being treated as third and fourth class citizens with a new group taking the place of second-class. Not that the RI's were particularly pleased being second-class. Pressures began to grow especially high, however, as limited silver supplies grew even more scarce. Silver, of course, is crucial in the construction of an RI, and without it, new RI's couldn't be constructed without special permits from the Robotics Oversight Committee. The RI's were forced, in essence, to ask the government for permission to have new kids. Meanwhile, batmen became increasingly restless with the impossibility of advancement.

A few economists, studying historical models of present-day behavior (so-called "historeconomics") became concerned with the growing trend of complete trust in the stock market. Many pointed out that this type of growth was competely unsustainable, while others tried to quiet the "fear-mongering" before people took it to seriously and withdrew too many funds at once. Increasingly complex stock-buying schemes defied public comprehension (stock-broking was, in fact, one of the principal employers of RI's). With many of the public seeing RI's as suspicious and untrustworthy, stock-broking companies have had to resort to more and more elaborate "Attractive Options".

Throughout all of this, Pratchapadrians are optimistic about the future. The market would, in the end, work itself out - once it had finished fluctuating from the sudden refugee/immigrant influx. Rather than focusing on important societal issues, most media attention turned to Kama Brahma, the pet project of ultra-wealthy Chandra Patil. Patil wanted to capture the "harmony of Man and Brahma" by creating a Wild Zone park and animal preserve. More specifically, he aimed to disarm the public of its notions about the danger of Brahman wildlife. To that end, he'd carved out a remote island in a crater to the southwest, hired mercenaries and "upstanding citizens" of neighboring states to capture Brahman wildlife, and flew said wildlife to the island. Kama Brahma is divided into eight pens, a tourist area, and a small airport/docks. It features "authentic Brahman tours" with Tkrai guides (many of whom have lived in the city all their life), sixteen megafauna (seven of which are carnivorous), and a Brahman petting zoo.

)People:
-Dr. Moya Jain: Economic Advisor to the Chief Counsel. She feels very trapped in her position. On the one hand, she wants to exploit the current boom to encourage more economic progress. On the other, however, she sees the coming economic collapse and wants to stop it, but feels a need to do so without accidentally causing it in the process.
-Tikrik V'khari: Perhaps one of the most controversial appointments in Pratchapadri history, Tikrik is the first Tkrai appointment to the Counsel of Diplomacy. The media made a circus of his appointment, both praising the open mindedness of Chief Counsel Demi and deriding it as an obvious move to "diversify" the National Party. Though he is in charge of Pratchapadri's relations with its neighbors, he feels incompetent due to the overwhelming media circus around his appointment. This is especially problematic, as Tikrik is well aware that the state he represents may not be around much longer.
-Chandra Patil: An ultra-wealthy business man, known for his charitable donations and creation of Kama Brahma. Though he earnestly sees himself as a fervent environmental advocate, he's hardly been beyond the Safe Zone, nor even into the enclosures in his theme park. He leaves all the "just and vital work" to the hired hands, trusting them completely. He comes off as either very naive or good-natured but misguided, but he has the money to pay for everything, so what can anyone do?
-Vivek Dipaka: The Security Counsel. A very scary (and rather old) man, having survived the second Ecological Harmonization period of Pratchapadrian expansion. He commands what is really more of a cadre of xenobiologists than any proper military, though he does offer contracts to nearby states' mercenaries for any civil unrests. Such a policy is not well-received by the lower classes that cause said unrests, but Vivek has little choice. A tired old man for a tired position.

)Organizations:
-Workers United: The WU is a coalition of Tkrai, immigrant workers, and robotic intelligences whose goal is to reform the government to acknowledge new population demographics. While entirely peaceful and nonviolent, the WU is looked at with extreme distrust because of the actions of the Morganists. Obviously, this has caused a lingering mistrust between the two organizations.
-The Organization for the Protection of Brahma and the Environment: Orignally a charity, the OPBE claim to be the only "true" environmentalists left in Pratchapadri. While technically legal, membership in this organization is suspicious. Backdoor dealings in the Senate lead some to believe that the OPBE is covertly attempting to gain control of the National Party. Very opposed to Kama Brahma, as the OPBE is convinced that Patil is, in fact, exploiting the wildlife and doing so in an incredibly dangerous, arrogant manner.
-The Morganists: A faction in favor of stricter regulation of businesses, convinced that the economy is going to collapse. Labelled as a terrorist organization by the state due to their increasingly violent demonstrations. Several bombings have been unsubstantially blamed upon the Morganists. While they are not opposed to the Workers United, the Morganists try to distance themselves for the WU's own protection. This policy has only served to sour relations between the two factions further.
-Kama Brahma: [located on the island in the large crater to the southwest] A theme park featuring the wildlife and megafauna of Brahma, "safely" caged and controlled. They also offer jungle tours and "authentic" native Tkrai guides! Transportation by aircraft is preferred. Kama Brahma is perhaps one of the largest private employers of mercenary security forces in Pratchapadri, being unconscionably wary of the OPBE and Morganists. The Morganists, Kama Brahma feels, would love to get their hands on the park and implement many economic controls that would prevent the animals from roaming free. Or at least, in a simulated freedom.

It's up to Pepper about another Business, but TSM has a Defense and R and D branch so you could have branches

@Queen Raidne: To your question: Yeah, sure. That actually sounds kinda cool. Just make sure it's very small.

Nothing too big. If you want to say your organization has a very small armed security branch that they use to protect their facilities, that's fine. But nothing too big.

Ok, that's what I mean.

Added a branch section to my post. Can you please check it out quickly

@Work_U_Dumb: No, no, no, no... Not a branch like that. I don't want you to essentially have two organizations. If you want to have a small security group that protects your facilities, that's fine. But you can't have a space-making organization, AND a private-security group that offers services to other people.

ok, I will just scrap the idea

So what info on pre-extermination human civilization has been added by apps so far? I made a colony world that got destroyed by listeners.

Anything else added so far?
