Bio

I tend to get involved in few group roleplays as I prefer 1x1 roleplays, prefferably over Discord. I can do nations but I won't if there is a set era. I also like modern and scifi settings, and magic too. My characters generally use more 'modern' types of magic, things that you generally don't expect to be used for types of magic, they come from various different worlds.

I prefer more modern settings over medieval eras, though if there is a good deal of freedom I don't mind what era.

The explorers glanced over those people surprised and confused for a moment, then suddenly one of them has given a response of their arrival.

"We're the Veilletes Expeditors of the Republic. Who and where are you from, strangers?" said by a Veilletes explorer from the south.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

An wild Undefined Veilletes Battleship has arrived at the strait of Yahupi Confederacy. Nicknamed the VNMS (Veilletes National Marine's Ship) Triotanor, a modernized version of an old battleship class Erksterm was currently on a mission to scout the whole area by the orders from a provisional government of the Veilletes Republic (newly established southern colony). Armed with three triple-barreled 16.7 inches main guns and 8 dual-purposed secondary cannons at both of its sides, it would have been more than enough to threaten any city centers and ports near the coast. Equipped with one of the best rangefinders for a cannonade ship, making Triotanor the one of the most accurate cannon ship ever improvised and also can be effectively against any other ships of its class.

During Triotanor's modernization, it is also fitted and reconfigured with a more powerful propulsion (hence a bigger smoke stack was easily presence at the ship) but sacrifice armor for becoming a fast & mobile battleship so they can relocate much faster if the situations were needed elsewhere. Additionally, few of the old AA guns were replaced with the CIWS turrets to protect against even moderate ships, combat patrols and jets that are armed with a targeted, tactical missiles & torpedoes.

Unfortunately in its process of modernization, the VNMS Triotanor's seaplanes are reduced from 3 to 1, mainly because of replacing the seaplane hanger to an engine room for requisitioning a faster speed on its ship.



The captain of the VNMS Triotanor has ordered his crew to deploy a reconnaissance seaplane for overlooking through inland of those islands within the vicinity of seaplane's service range.

"Recon Airborne!" yelled by the petty officer at the deck close to the seaplane's catapult.



"Take off successful! Proceed to do our intelligence report, over!" radioed by the recon pilot



The officer hesitated for a second. "We are from the Federation. We are in an armed conflict with the...barbarians to the south of us, the Yahupi confederacy. My name is Edward Horward, I am the Officer of the squadron stationed here." the officer replies. "Tell me of this...Veilletes republic." he said.

_

The Yahupi Confederacy spot this vessel as it arrives through one of the nearby straights. They can't really do anything about it until it makes landfall, however they believe it may be from the same origin as the other Ferry that has arrived in another location. The Yahupi prepare for battle incase this might be another new thing the Federation has come up with, or just prepare for battle anyway.

The plane flies over these islands, discovering they are inhabited. There is plenty of various buildings and structures and what seem to be troop movements down below. There are various dirt roads, and no airfields or anything that would signify they are advanced beyond basic industrialism.

"FIRE!!" a Yahupi officer shouts, upon seeing the plane. He directs his soldiers to fire at this thing to the best of their abilities.

A trebuchet fires off a few flaming cannonballs in the direction of this plane, they miss but others start firing at this plane. It is certain the Yahupi do not like to be flown over, if they even know what a plane is. They probably don't.
However, as their explorers and settlers have started to encroach deeper into the south-eastern proportion of the continent, they've stumbled across as some sort of a newly discovered civilization.


These Explorers come across the nation of the Federation, who appeared to be ready for battle for someone. The Federation soldiers pointed their muskets and rifles at these explorers and then lowered them. Realizing they weren't of the Yahupi confederacy. A few soldiers walk up to them, followed by their Officer. The Officer looks at these explores as the Soldiers part way for the Officer to approach these explorers. The soldiers wear all decked out in green and white uniforms. Rugged and tough uniforms. The officer wore a more finer, elagant uniform yet it was still like the others, an orange line across his collar marked his rank aswell as his hat, which was like a standard commander hat.

The soldier took a good hard long look at them. "Who are you?" he asks.

<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>
Phalanx Alpha was not impressed by what they were seeing, which was not that surprising considering the fact that this was their life on a day-to-day basis. Martinez continued talking into the walkie-talkie "Command, here Phalanx-2 again. Entity confirmed non-hostile. Anomalous properties entity was talking about earlier confirmed, although according to herself she only uses weather and air abilities. Possible AD-scenario if it does become hostile. Also apparently she calls herself 'Ashnah'"

"Alright, Ashnah, I'm going to need you to listen very well, alright?" James said "The direction where you are headed at the moment is the Lanist Khaganate where I am from. Millions of people live there, and we can't have you going into that area with those powers. So if it's possible, we would like you to turn back now so no one will get hurt. Understood?"


Ashnah sighs. "But I wanted to be with people..." she said, almost like a child however she nodded in agreement to this, however she didn't leave yet.` She looked a little sad, but not by much.

_

With the weapons the Yathon have gave them, the Federation makes some very steady encroachment into the Yahupi territories, specifically the northern ones. Slaves working in the plantations and facilities there are freed from their Yahupi oppressors. The Yahupi fight back as best as they can however the bullets from the Yathon's weapons shatter their shields and kill these soldiers quickly. Others do ritual suicides, and the rare few surrender and are taken into custody. This leaves the Yahupi spirit defeated, somewhat. As this happens the Federation begins industrializing and improving their technology.

Meanwhile, in the capital city of Meradon, Cheif Tutanabo has just learned of the news that his northern territories were taken from him.

His arms shake as some of his generals just told him the news. He growls and looks at each and every one of them in the eye for a few seconds each.

"HOW??! HOW COULD WE LOSE TO THEM!!!?"he shouts at the tops of his lungs to these generals, who take a step back and don't know what to say for a little while.

"They...they...had weapons..." one of the generals said meekly, very meekly.

"WHAT SORT OF WEAPONS!!?" Cheif Tutanabo asked, in rage.

"Pierced through...shields...slaughtered many..." the same general says.

"HOW??!" he asks, even angrier.

"We...don't know...how they...got these weapons...our northern territories...are gone..."

"I KNOW THAT!" Cheif Tutanabo shouted and then went silent.

"We can...form a defensive line around what we have currently...around the areas currently in open combat...improve our shields maybe...and execute the slaves and prisoners...so they can't be freed." another general suggests.

"DO THAT THEN! MAKE THEM SUFFER!"

With that said, the generals were dismissed and these orders were carried out, as swiftly and quickly as possible.

Updated map:


After unloading several crates, the ship uses the same crane to unload a single person wearing a black suit and a featureless, white mask covering most of their face while leaving the mouth uncovered.
"Good Afternoon." The person simply states. "Who's in charge here?"

<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>

"Negative on setting up an embassy in Yathon. Our land is too few in numbers to permit the construction of an embassy, any available land is currently in use. We do however wish to set up a structure to serve as either an embassy or at the least a trading post of sorts."


"Damn!" one of the soldiers shouted, frustrated that they couldn't board this ship.

"He ruined our plan..." an other one growled.

"Shut up! Shut up!" the leader hushed the soldiers, and they then went quiet from then onward. The leader turned towards this person.

"I am!" he shouted, somewhat proudly and pridefully, stepping forward towards the person.

_

She nods. "Alrighty then. Just know that you people are always welcome here and that the people here will aid you in unloading your cargo to us. You may set up an embassy near to here, or if you would like us to build one for you that would be acceptable."
<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>
James was about to tell his name when he hestitated. As a member of an organization that was at least supposed to be theoretically classified, he couldn't tell anyone who he was or where he was from, or else crucial classified information could leak out and spread to the rest of the world. He wasn't going to tell his name to a random anomaly he was supposed to get rid of somehow. After a short amount of silence, he answered "You can call me Sentinel, he said with his signature Polish accent." It was a code name from a system that Phalanx Alpha had decided to implement for situations like this one, where civilians or sentient anomalous entities such as the Lima-type humanoids could not know their real name, but they had to make up something to avoid danger.

The man next to James, Martinez, picked up his walkie-talkie as well and said. "Command, this is Phalanx-2, according to itself, the entity is omnipotent, and has powerful shapeshifting abilities. We have yet to see any proof or conformation that this is true, although the meteor story the scientists shared earlier would definetly be proof for this idea."

"Acknowledged, " Command replied, "Moving entity up to threat level orange. Evacuate immediately if it turns hostile."

"The man has a point. Can you prove your supposed abilities?" James asked the woman.


"If intended on harming you all I could just...swipe you away but what would be the point in that?" she asked 'Sentinel', shrugging slightly. She took a second or 2 to think about this question. "I prefer weather and air abilities. The other ones just don't suit me..." she said and a green orby ball appeared in her hand.

It seemed to have a glowing effect to it with slightly darker green swirls and lines inside of it. She rose her hand, the one with this ball into the air. 4 different streams of clouds converged upon this ball, the ball started to have a greyish dampening on the green ball. She then threw it up into the air and it exploded a good ways up, causing a dark stormcloud to form. Thankfully it didn't start raining on them.

What she does next is she flies into the air, and flies around this cloud and sticks one of her arms into it as she does so, cutting this cloud in half somehow. She fired a few beams of lighting out into the sky, before landing where she was before. She melts down into a greenish goo, and the same green cylinder forms out of it, and a few seconds later she reverts to her human form.
<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>

The ship docks at one of the piers, and starts unloading several crates of cargo using an on-board crane.

<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>

She is greeted by a person wearing a captain's uniform, but with a white, featureless mask covering all but their mouth.
"Good Afternoon. The weapons come with instruction manuals, anyone possessing the skill of 'reading' should be capable of learning how to operate these weapons for purpose that include, but are not limited to, killing their opponents." The 'captain' says, with a dull, monotonous voice. "As for payment, the definition of a gift states that the gifting party does not expect something in return, which applies here as well. Yathon does not seek to be paid for this gift, but would like to establish non-hostile trade relations between this nation and Yathon itself."


"Damn! We can't get in there!" The leader shouts in rage to the other soldiers that were with him.

"How about we wait until this thing opens up?" a soldier suggests.

"That may be what we have to do..." The leader rolled his eyes and huffed in annoyance.

"I do not want to wait, I want to fight!" another soldier shouted.

"I want to fight too, but...perhaps the reward is best saved until later." the leader suggests.

The soldier nodded in reply. They waited for any possible doors to open. Soldiers talked amongst themselves to pass the time, and others practiced fighting moves and stances as they waited.

_

The 2nd commander nods. "Sounds like a good plan. We would like to establish non-hostile relations too. These weapons will help us, greatly against the northern barbarians of the Yahupi. We would also be willing to set up an embassy in your area, and we would would expect an embassy here aswell." she says in reply.

She orders some of her officers and soldiers to go distribute these weapons across as far as possible, they will give the Federation an edge against the Yahupi.
<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>
Before answering her question, James picked up his walkie-talkie. There was a second of radio static as he searched and found the right frequency. "Command, here Phalanx-1, the anomaly is a Lima-type presumed non-hostile humanoid entity. Anomalous features include glowing wings and flying. Except for the wings she is anatomically similar to a female human. So far there have been no attacks"

Then James turned to the strange human and said: "We are from the Lanist Khaganate, and you are approaching our territory at the moment after landing here on this planet. We would like to know who, or rather what, you are."


The entity simply rose an eyebrow at what James was doing there, but she didn't question it. She's been with these sorts of people before, though that's a story for another time. "What I am...I don't even know myself..." she grinned a little bit. "I can assume any form at will, I am limitless in shape. I can do whatever I want." she shrugged slightly. "My name is Ashnah, yours is?" she asked.

Both nations of the Yahupi and the Federation expand again. The Federation has cut off the Yahupi from expanding north, the Federation lays claim to many resource rich areas and they begin exploiting these resources for the war effort in the south. They cut down some forest to aid their war effort, but not much. However in these new territories they discover strange, blue stones in the caves in the area. These stones are taken off to other areas for research, they seem to be magical in origin. This will prove to be an interesting find, one that might be able to be used against the Yahupi Confederacy...

The Yahupi expand full force to the south and enslave the various small tribes there. Not much of a problem to do so as those tribes were unorganized and rather unprepared. A military presence there is swiftly established. The Yahupi aren't much of miners, but they sure are loggers and they cut down massive ranges of forest for lumber to support their building plans and their war effort. Because of this, they are rather unaware of what may be underneath the surface that could be of aid to them.

<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>

The ship sends another bird back, containing a request for directions to a location to unload.

<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>

When the ship docks, it starts unloading a few containers worth of firearms.


The soldiers grin to eachother. "I will inform those who are at a...certain location of a suitable location." the leader states. The others wait around.

The leader runs off to go inform his various superiors and those of equal rank about such an area. Such a place, is called Muriva city, there is a port nearby aswell. The superiors give the orders for a large military presence to be stationed there and to be ready for battle. The leader of those soldiers is dismissed.

A bird is dispatched, giving the location of such a harbor. Once the ferries are there, the Yahupi are in waiting. A few of the leaders wait for things to be unloaded perhaps. They are ready for this plan.

_

Meanwhile, in the Federation the 2nd Commander watches as these things are unloaded. The Federation's people there take note of who the people unloading these things look like. The 2nd Commander walks up and introduces herself to these people, extending a hand of friendship to them.

She asks how these Firearms are operated, and she asks what the Federation can offer in return. Gold or silver coins perhaps. She has dark blue eyes, somewhat of a tall stature, with a purple and white uniform, a lightish brown color to it. Her hair is done in a bun shape. She looks young, but not too young.
The few observatories that the Khaganate had at that moment had been tracking this suborbital object as soon as they saw its approach. The astronomers stationed there thought it was just a simple meteorite, an event that happened commonly, although they would just burn up in the atmosphere most of the time. From the suborbital trajectory the scientists could calculate the impact site of the object, and it was surprisingly close to the Lanist Khaganate. So close in fact, that one of the astronomers contacted Isaac Plant, the minister of the Ministry of Science, who was free at the moment because of the abrupt end of the day's Kurultai meeting. Isaac agreed to help set up an expedition towards the predicted impact site, and but a few hours later it was already on its way. At the Khaganate's border a few IFV's got assigned to escort the expedition, as the land outside Khaganate territory was seen as unsafe. They encountered nothing on their way, and the Melanija Regina Expedition, as it was now called after the astronomer that had predicted the meteor-like object's impact site first, arrived safely at their destination, and set up in large circle around the impact site.

A few hours later, their efforts were rewarded, and they could see the green cylinder landing perfectly at the anticipated place. They also saw it melt and form into a human person right before their eyes. And while the scientists were amazed, the military was not. The local commander that had been sent on the mission to escort picked up his communicator, a smart-phone like device, and called his boss to tell him that they have found something weird at the impact site. The boss in turn informed Omega Order, a highly secretive and classified organization dedicated to fight against aliens, the paranormal, and many other non-conventional threats the Lanist Khaganate might face. Only the highest military officials may know of this organization, and the local commander's boss was one of them. Nevertheless, the organization's existence was sort of an open secret, as Omega Order was well known by the Khanians as an organization that fought and protected the Khaganate against the unknown.

James "Sentinel" Maleski was not having a good day. He was smelling like a mixture of rotten eggs and human feces, owing to the escape and subsequent elimination of one of the strange creatures that the Omega Order contained to study, that he had been sent on a mission together with his task force, Phalanx Alpha, against. After the monster broke out, it soon overwhelmed the facility with its horrible stench and Phalanx Alpha had been sent in with gas masks to get rid of it. They did so swiftly and effectively, but the gas masks did not prevent the smell from getting through his body armor and stain his clothes. He just finished up changing and only washing his short, brown hair when he received a SCRAMBLE alert. He immediately ran to his designated briefing room where most of Phalanx Alpha was already waiting. As soon as everyone was there, their commander began speaking
"At 2:00 AM, an unknown object came from orbit and landed at a location here, east of the Khaganate," He said while pointing at a projected map, he continued, "After touching down, this object melted, and transformed into a female human with wings that flew off towards our nation. I want you to make sure this creature does not reach our territory, as we do not know what it's capable of and is likely to be dangerous, if possible capture this creature for further study. Understood?"
"Yes sir!" Everyone replied, and they went towards the armory to pick up all of their weapons and gear. "I hope this one doesn't stink as much as the previous one." James jokes to a man named Martinez, one of his closest friends, and the team went of towards the dropship they used to deploy into missions. Barely five minutes later, the VTOL dropship took off with nearly everyone on board, and immediately accelerated to Mach 2, its maximum speed. Barely fifteen minutes later, the dropship arrived at its destination and everyone jumped out.

All around the female human, strange men and women suddenly fell out of the sky and dropped in a circle around her, pointing their rifles at her.


This female human looked at them as they dropped out of the sky, she showed no fear whatsoever, and just simply looked at them, calmly. "Hello, who might you people be?" she asks, curiously. Her wings seem to have a glowing effect to them, like a shimmering. She wore a pair of green, simple boots. She looked human enough, though from what they have already known enough she isn't human, probably. "I'm no threat, really..." she said, while floating off of the ground a little bit. There was a slight, very slight wind as she did so.
<Snipped quote by Apple>

<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>

The ship doesn't respond to the attacks. After all, trebuchets, cannonballs and musket fire aren't a big threat to a big ship. Instead, it simply sends out another bird with an identical note and one carrying some gold coins.

<Snipped quote by Aceofreality>

The ship sends a return note, asking for directions to a port to land at to unload it's cargo.


After the ship didn't react, the leader of this firing squad had an idea. "STOP!!" he snarled at the others, and they stopped firing their trebuchets and muskets and lowered them. The Yahupi grouped around eachother, talking to eachother.

"We can board that thing...take control of it." The leader said to them.

"Yes...but how?" a soldier asked.

The leader narrowed his eyes at the soldier. "Hm...we need a long throwing rope with a hook on the end...hook on the end. We can sneak up the sides of that thing and slaughter all who is aboard..take all of their loot, plunder it and then burn it to the ground..." The leader replied, with a devlish grin.

"Alright, sounds like a good plan sir.." that same soldier said.

"But wait..what if we send a note of our own? Saying we accept their proposal, they will then allow us aboard...and we could attack that way?" another soldier asked.

The leader narrowed his eyes. "If you weren't one of my men, I would have you executed. You seem like a federation scumbag..." he growls. "But FINE!!" the leader shouted.

That soldier gulped and nodded.

A pigeon was sent sooner on, saying that they accept this proposal. They await anything further.

_

For the one in the Federation, the 2nd Commander sends another note, giving the coordinates to a port a little south of this location. Named the Pulipo harbor. The 2nd commander, and her officers aswell as some other men on site head off to the Pulipo harbor to see the cargo get unloaded from here.

"Whatever they will bring, it will sure be of use to us!" one of the officers said.

"It sure will be...hopefully." the other officer said in reply.

The 2nd Commander looked at them somewhat sternly. "I hope so too, but this could also be a trick..." she muttered.

A little while later they were at the harbor. A few docking areas were open for the ferries to dock at the harbor. They waited the ferry's arrival, once the ferry arrived they noticed all the other ships there were sailing, wooden ships aswell as smaller boats crafted out of wood.
