Alright then, I'm gonna cook up a character sheet. I think I'll drop him in somewhere on the dead planet...

@RoadkilBanana

I'm not the driver on that one, so I'll leave it up to him. Just make sure you also give us a description of how Axl left the bounds of his own dimension.

I usually end it before they can break the repetition by getting out. The variables start to get out of hand nearly instantly.
*Motions with my hands to the general area, implying that’s the sort of position we’re in now*

@Galaxy Raider

Okay—
*Points at you with both index fingers*
Now I'm following one hundred percent. I'd say diplomacy is up for grabs.

A fair assumption to make, without intimate knowledge from close observation and repeated cycles of a universe’s worth of experience to base it on.
*Straightens my shoulders and glances at each of you, one by one*
I did say I usually end it here. But given the way things have changed, your return here is not indicative of your end, this time. Things are going to have to play out differently.

@Galaxy Raider

I wouldn't think so. Universe cycles that drag other universes or Tier Fours into them are beyond even calling rare.

Myriad Reality

Just what the setting is and what's currently happening. Thanks for your help. :D

@RoadkilBanana

Sure! There are a series of independent groups, one of which is fighting a war on a distant planet akin to our Mars, and another who are on a completely dead planet of a lost civilization encountering a long-time thorn in their side. Those are the big two, but we can also spin up others as necessary.

Since we have netnavis in this RP already, getting a reploid involved would be super easy tbh.

Setting is a multiverse, but we have depth on that in page 1.

I weigh both halves of the equation equally, I’d say. Weighing one over the other leaves someone wronged forever.

@Galaxy Raider

It's really too bad, there was a diplomatic way out with wins all around otherwise.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

The IA is comprised of an idea that started here, and evolved without them. While it is true they have roots in ideas formulated amongst these folks, there are none left. Despite the myths that they were hidden and sprinkles amongst the population. The only ones that remain in that society are known.
*Folds my arms behind my back*
And to the second point, it would be self defeating if suppression of conquest was my only goal. But my goal isn’t to simply leave this universe dead for the safety of everyone. If they can grow to abandon the idea of manifest destiny, they can live amongst greater Existence peacefully, and even be a boon to it rather than harm it.

@Galaxy Raider

Mmmmmm okay, so you care about seeing them alive more than you fear their conquest attitude, right?

Myriad Reality

I think I'll go with Axl, I had some time to think about it.

For the character appearance, should I describe it or put in an image?

@RoadkilBanana

For a character sheet? Either is good. Feel free to post an image and describe any differences.

Do you have any questions about our setting, rules, etc?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

I assumed you’d have a level of sensibility about this, given the folks you’re associated with. Yes, while taking life is generally a taboo and such, the universe requires absolute dormancy to start again.

@Galaxy Raider

Seems like, as-is, you’re more safe with a handful of them around. The IA already exists, so a big reset won’t do much about that, and by restarting the timeline, you just end up creating more. Sorta self-defeating, isn’t it?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Suppression of imperialism? You can call it a localized version of what Tier Five strives for, in a sense. The people here always have a desire to conquer. It’s practically coded into their DNA, and their ingenuity always leads to their discovery of broader Existence. Usually later than when they did this time, obviously.
*My feet touch the ground in front of you finally, after my slow descent finishes*
Then they want more. And that’s not fair to anyone wherever they end up traveling to, so I force them to start over, and while I do try to nudge them in directions to change the way they end up, it’s never been enough.

@Galaxy Raider

Other than, you know, the killing part, I don’t exactly hate that.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

To each their own. Regardless, I have to say. Every time you eventually come back here, "Rythian", it is one of the last things to happen before it all ends. A reset is accelerated when there's no one left. I do kill you. Both of you.

@Galaxy Raider

Why? What do you care?
