So like Kazzlehorf. It remains to be seen if this individual has the same madness.

@TheSovereignGrave Wouldn't that mean they're actually hermaphrodites or is there some weird tech thing going on? (The name makes it seem like they may be a clone empire)

Basically GMan mixed with the Cheshire Cat.

@MissingAxisWhat did you have in mind?

Stardust: A Freeform Sci-Fi Fantasy NRP

@REDSHEILDWhy not be a Solarian? They're basically humans but with more time in space (300 years instead of a hundred) and genetic variation. Not to mention Willy's all lonely without alien contact.

I feel the Fallen need more information before I can really acknowledge them.

Stardust: A Freeform Sci-Fi Fantasy NRP

I think it may take a bit of time to process how the Silent Imperium would deal with that. Like, I feel that such revelation should be saved for IC in how impact that might end up having. The Dominion suddenly seems like a quaint issue when a intergalactic invasion force is likely headed this way, doesn't it?

@Commodore RobotDoes your kind have large standing fleets? Just wondering.

Also I do wonder what the Dominion would do if one anti-matter would had a melt down so to speak. Would it cause something to actually happen or just be a "Well shit, there goes food for Xernos 4"-type of reaction?

Also expanding Silent Imperium behavior and relations is in my interests. The Solarians probably have no clue the Tikali are even a thing, but what of the Ouroburos or the Asvir? I believe there may be contempt for the Asvir among the Silent Imperium's populous (viewing them as another 'monster' in the galaxy) but not among those at top who would rather just see them as neutral as those at top tend to be more interested in "acquiring new assets" than going all-out with military operations unless the time is "right". Not to mention the Oath was to systemically kill off the Chelonians, not the Indiscarians or Asvir.

Also what sort of vibe is the UU meant to fill @WrongEndoftheRainbow? This is important since they seem to be sorta like Q from star trek in niche or something.

@Commodore Robot In this case the Tikali at this point may be too short sighted and prone to 'side missions' to actually dedicate themselves to the grand mission (I.e actually enacting that campaign of genocide against the Chelonians the Oath hypes up so much) beyond the periodic harassment of Dominion citizens and operations of sabotage/assassination that happen every so often while the Dominion is too red tape filled to actually bother going about continuing extermination operations with any semblance of effectiveness beyond sometimes getting lucky and attacking a outpost. Of course if a major incident happened it could lead to an actual total war, but it would seem that no such incident has happened as of yet to really push forward beyond the severe risk the total lack of communication causes.

@Commodore Robot What has the Dominion's activities in regards to the Silent Imperium been? (They probably aren't aware of the Oath or what it entails, the Oath is meant to be secretive, but probably presume their intentions to be genocidal in nature)

Do they actively try to hunt Tikali down to this day or not? This may alter the trajectory on the Silent Imperium's behavior, which radicalizes if the Dominion really does go on campaigns to locate and destroy concentrations of Silent Imperium activity and any Tikalli populated worlds (the ones that are independent anyhow).

@TheSovereignGrave A devoted Tikali agent of the Silent Imperium would likely find those views foolish if not blatantly patronizing.

The less devoted but still oath bound Tikali might miss your point entirely and seemingly avoid the subject when brought up, saying something like "You are right, this whole war with the Chelonians has been going on for ages. We should've killed them all down to maybe a couple million or so like they did to us centuries ago. But things happen, not all plans go right and the ones at top like their pointless adventuring, you wouldn't believe what's out there. Once there was a time my excavation team encountered a planetoid filled with paste. From top to bottom, just paste all around. Paste everywhere, from the highest mountain tp the deepest crater, even when digging inside we found a whole underground ocean of paste. We thought there'd be something more to it, but alas the scans proved it was paste to the core."
