^ very interesting! :) as for genofixing, i'm pretty solid on it.. Although I'm not entirely clear as to your stance on that combat genofixing question asked earlier.

Regarding the revolution promised in the first post.. Would this be one singular revolution already taking place at the start of the RP, say by one species against another? Or would it be planned and executed by the players after building tension during the RP?

Conversely, would it just be one group angry, or would there be multiple rebelling factions similar to what can be seen in many modern-day rebellions (one group wants to topple the gov't for ___ reason; another does it for ___; a third wants ___ and all of them may or may not be hostile to one another as well)?

Firstly, it's a bit of both. It will be brewing before we start but i'd imagine the characters might have something to do with its development. ;)

Also yes, multiple factions are vying for control of Babylon. There's going to be some serious in-fighting. One of the factions i can reveal is a descendant of the Knights Templar and the Red Cross.

Do you have an ETA for the start or are you looking for a player cap?

I'm not fussed. Do you want me to start the OOC? I haven't got all the information down yet, not even close. :(

ok this has me interested, hopefully we get some really interesting characters out of this

also I think I'll need to check out these books you keep referencing

EDIT: Also I think you should hold off on an OCC till you at least have basic tech/abilities more nailed down. You don't want to have to deny a load of characters simply cause they didn't realise what they could work with

That said I can't wait till the OCC is up :P

Hehe, okay. If you want an easy way into the Culture Series, try The Player of Games. They're all by Ian M Banks. If you like that then move onto the meatier Consider Phlebas. I whole heartedly recommend this series to anyone who wants to get the full feel for this RP.

The mood i'm trying to capture is that of excess, oppression and pent up energy. Fast paced Sandship battles coupled with deadly political stand-offs. There'll be blood on both sides.

Starting to put down more on 'setting the stage'. Babylon is the main city-state but there are three sister cities. Edessa, Actim and Réunion. They'll mainly be cornucopia cities, providing vital supplies to Babylon. Water, food, ore etc. Things that need space and natural resources.

I will be greatly thankful if the Knights Templar and the Red Cross are open towards me so I can make a character for one of these two factions.

That's good, i'd really like people in that faction. It'll have mutated heavily from the Knights Templar of the 12th century. They're still very rich, but the values will be different. Same with the Red Cross, their mission evidently has been lost in translation because helping the needy isn't their priority.

Going to bed now, see y'all in the morning. Keep the questions and suggestions coming, i love answering them all.

I'm still here, waiting for all the info to be collected in one place before I begin character planning though.

...great song.

And I'm jumping on the linking bandwagon with something that might give you the vibe I'm getting from this rp...
