Shine City IV: Romance Forever!

My initial post is finished and geez, I'm wondering if I should do a TLDR for it. It's MASSIVE. Easily my longest post ever, though it helps show what kind of person Nat is. I'll post it once the IC is officially on the road.

Shine City IV: Romance Forever!

Natille "Nat" Gerwulf AKA Venka Morfeo

Pen Name: Venka Morfeo
Real Name: Natille “Nat” Gerwulf

Age: 24

Appearance:

Picture

Height: 163cm

Weight: 48 kg

Likes (in no particular order and quite miscellaneously): Sleep, nicotine dreams and even nightmares, her morning and evening cigarillo, writing, music, a cold drink after writing and occasionally before, her platonic relationship with Dr. Templeton, her not so platonic relationship with Templeton Rye, long walks, the rare new experience...

Dislikes (in no particular order miscellaneously): Excessive smoking, bad smells, pollution, people, the world, God and/or the gods, not being understood, the same old experiences, doctors (save for one psychologist), reality and life...

Party Trick: What a rare occurrence for Nat, she doesn’t usually have much tricks for parties. Her main party talent is her incredible tolerance for alcohol, gaining a rosy appearance on her pale skin but still remaining visibly stable and apparently mentally stable, though who knows how well she pretends not to be drunk, parties being so rare. She can also blow various interesting shapes with clouds of smoke, though she is sickened by most save for the occasional cigar or her favorite brand of cigarillos, Lily Clouds.

Profession: Professional novel writer, works from home. Occasionally follows various courses at the local university.

Bio: Natille Gerwulf, known to the few close to her as “Nat” by her demand, and to the general public as Venka Morfeo, famous writer of novels portraying a vividly described world alternate to ours, where a young woman finds herself going on adventures, fighting villains, making friends and even falling in love, has a peculiar source for the inspiration of her writing. This source of inspiration is seen as quite different things by different people and groups. For her reader base, it’s the world around her that feeds her colorful imagination, for her psychologist, it comes from her dreams, the reveries of a woman called “broken”, and for Nat herself, it was a reality she once lived.

Seven years prior to the present day, Natille entered a coma following an accident that killed her mother. Her father, a wealthy man who had spent his entire life thus far working so his dream of having a truly happy family with his beloved soulmate of a wife and his adored daughter, was, needless to say, devastated. Rushing to the hospital in the middle of a blizzard, which earned him scars from frostnip, he gave all he had so his daughter could be kept alive, even as his relatives, always scornful of his relationship, warned that he would be pouring his money into a vegetable.

Still, he pressed on, selling all but what he absolutely needed to live so his daughter could sleep soundly, his hope never dying. Left alone by a god he’d rather name the worst of demons, he fell into depression, drinking and nearly committing suicide. Though he reassured himself with the fact that care for Natille was carefully ensured in his will and testament, he could never pull the trigger, torn to shreds by the struggle within him between hope and despair. When he was not visiting his daughter, every moment felt as cold as the blizzard he fought through to first see her face after the accident, but as one year of melancholic slumber became two, then three, then eventually four, Alan Gerwulf never stopped signing checks to the hospital caring for her and fighting for his angel to be kept alive for just a while longer.

Natille awoke five years later, on a warm summer’s day. It would take her two months before she could form coherent sentences again and in the meantime, she cried, sobbed, even wailed and bawled at some points of time. While her father saw it initially as sadness from her mother’s death, a sadness they shared, or even tears of joy at being truly alive again, it was soon discovered that she was crying to be in the coma again. Not because of five years of her life being gone, not because her family was ruined, not because her father had remarried in an attempt to fill in a certain void while she was gone (though she would resent him for this later), but because of a life she had lived while asleep. The specialists taking care of her told her it was simply impossible that she could have vivid, realistic dreams while in a coma, but every day, she wrote in a journal about the incredibly colorful, detailed memories she had of her dream life.

Before she seemingly died and woke up from her coma at the end of a happy life, surrounded by a family she loved more than anything, she had lived a family life not unlike the one her father wanted for himself and his beloveds, with a handsome, strong, special husband, one who she had met during countless adventures she had after she came into the fantastical world she could now remember so intensely, at the age of eighteen. Nat, as her beloved had called her, had fought with a sword, with magic, with her heart, struggled, met many people, made so many friends, and even changed the world before living the rest of her life in peace. Her times were often happy, often sad, sometimes bittersweet, occasionally full of rage, but that rainbow of emotions was what she loved most. She had found everything she could have ever wanted in that world, she did everything she ever wanted and she never wanted for more. Natille cherished the twenty years she believed she had lived in that world so much that she could easily write every moment down.

All of it was gone and for those around her, it was a miracle. What a miracle! She finally woke up! Not a single person understood her distress, no one even sought to understand it, with everyone, even her own father, brushing it aside as side effects from brain damage she must have incurred in the accident. The only one who went as far as accepting them as dreams was a young medical student who would later become her psychologist, the oddly-named Bridge Templeton, however, that didn’t change a thing for Natille, who now firmly insisted she be called “Nat”. She had lost it all, everything she had ever cherished was gone, from the life she had lived in the coma and her life before the accident.

At one time, she had thanked the accident for sending her into a world where her life was even better than the last. Now, she cursed the world for its cruelty, taking both of her lives away, making all her actions be for nothing. A year after her recovery, she decided to move to Shine City, away from the house of her father and his new wife who treated Nat as her own daughter and did her able best to be the mother the girl had lost. Upon the suggestion of the local Dr. Templeton, she had published what she still believed were her own experiences in a novel, which was an astounding success. A serialization prompted the move in order to become closer to a publishing house.

One year has passed since then. Now known throughout the world by her pen name, Venka Morfeo, she continues to write her experiences as the stories of Lynette, a character that mirrors her in every way, living alone in a penthouse apartment, with no lack for material delights, leaving only to get fresh air and fresh food. Life on Earth and not in the world of Soma is seen as useless to her, her only purpose being to leave Lynette’s and her own mark on the world as Venka Morfeo. The perfect world of her slumber pales in comparison to the colors of Shine City to her and her hope is lost.

But has hope died?

Personality: Today, Nat has given up on reality, after she was “killed” in her beloved Soma and brought into the sad plane known as Earth once again, in an uncomfortable, sterile bed. Due to this, she regards the real world with apathy, boredom and even hatred at times. Every experience seems redundant to her, though she is delighted by the rare experience that doesn’t feel like déjà vu. Occasionally she ventures out of her penthouse to look for these experiences, but when this is fruitless, save for physical fitness benefits, she usually retreats back for a drink and to continue working to the achievement of what she sees as her life’s purpose. Love is another thing that seems redundant to her, the memories of the love of her old life still fresh in her mind and not easily forgettable. People are monochrome background characters compared to the colorful, amazing people of Soma and her demeanor reflects this, polite and friendly out of courtesy, but uncaring. It would take true power of the heart to break her out of the prison of her memories, or death. Some small part of Nat still prays that it’ll be the former.

Shine City 3: Summer Sequel (Always Accepting)

You're all crazy. Is this because the reboot is taking a while to pop up?

Flight of the Faceless (Flying Mecha and Fighter Jets)

Could you maybe handwave the ammo we use as being smaller and weighing less, which allows us fighter jets to have more ammo but just not a high as rate of fire or damage as the mechs?

Not trying to change continuity here!

@Dynamo Frokane

Don't worry about changing continuity here, I'm totally open to ideas and changing things. Let's see... perhaps we can say that aircraft guns are smaller and higher velocity, allowing more to be carried, compared to more stopping power on mecha. How does that sound? Let's say that triples the amount a plane can carry.

Flight of the Faceless (Flying Mecha and Fighter Jets)

@ShinThank you for the detail! and thank you for the Rem <3

So I'm working on a fighter jet at the moment, I know most real world fighter jets can carry about 6-8 missiles maybe 10 at a push.

And machine gun cannons usually hold enough ammo for about 12 seconds of firing, (varies with rate of fire)

Now as far as Ace Combat goes. You have about 60-100 missiles on hand and a damn near infinite amount of cannon ammo and thats not counting the special weapons.

So for this RP, where do we fall between real world and ace combat in terms of ammo?

@Dynamo Frokane

Alright, so, to clear things up, I've kind of balanced things out between fighters and airborne mecha by allowing fighters to use MultiPods, which each carry up to ten missiles, giving a minimum load of twenty using heavier MultiPods. These are each about the size of a typical A2A missile such as the AIM-9. You can of course add more pods, bringing you up to Ace Combat standards, but I've also decided that any special weapons will be realistic and you can only have one per pylon, not magically reloading like in Ace Combat. Cannon ammo is the same as the real world, which is where airborne mecha have the advantage, as their assault cannons can carry a few thousand rounds in multiple magazines.

EDIT: And you're welcome for the Rem, it's just one out of my enormous collection ;3

Flight of the Faceless (Flying Mecha and Fighter Jets)

Alright, I’m finally home! To answer your question, @Dynamo Frokane, I think I should talk a bit about the technological level of mecha. The first mech to be deployed was the Kerangal Heavy Industries M-01 in 2001, which looks like this. Yes, I’m shamelessly ripping designs from Muv-Luv for the standard mecha designs, but anyway, you can see that it is very heavy and well-armored looking. The Sateans used the M-01, which was sold to them, as the base for the CAU Mk. I, which looks like this. The CAU series gains its flying ability from the core of an alien flier inside the body of the mech, alien fliers being organic fighters with extreme maneuverability due to having the ability to effectively float without regard for gravity. CAU’s use traditional jet engines for propulsion and maneuvering once in the air, with life being provided by this core. It is significantly less armored than the M-01, sacrificing protection for maneuverability.

Its top speed is 830 kph, with current generation CAU’s having speeds up to 1050 kph. No CAU currently has the ability to break the sound barrier except in a steep dive, even the most advanced Satean designs have yet to set this record.

To not recount the entire history of airborne mecha (as the Principality and her allies prefer to call them) / CAU’s (as the Federation and her own allies prefer to call them), the two main current models used by the Principality of Remoni are the M-13 “Diamond” as standard issue for most frontline units and the M-09 “Axe”, which is an older model being steadily replaced by the M-13, but is preferred by a few pilots for its slightly larger size and heavier armor, due to it being the last Remonish airborne mech to be based on a ground mech.

The Federation mainly uses one type of CAU, the CAU Mk. X “Sparrow”, with the advanced and rare Mk. 0 "Garm" serving only the most elite units of their armed forces. As a side note, the Federation has practically abandoned all development and production of ground mecha, preferring the versatility of CAU’s.

As a general rule of thumb, the Principality’s airborne mecha tend to be slower, but with greater robustness and are more maneuverable on the ground, whereas the Federation’s CAU’s are faster and more maneuverable in the air, but frailer. Both are more maneuverable than the average fighter jet due to their ability to entirely change direction within moments, but are much slower compared to fighter jets, even at full afterburners. Not only this, airborne mecha can have troubles tracking fighters that are at speeds faster than them and maneuvering, due to them tending to rely on pilot skill at aiming guns all while moving at high speeds and avoiding fire. A fighter pilot should not get into a low speed maneuvering fight with an airborne mech, however, for obvious reasons.

When it comes to armament, the main difference comes in that all airborne mecha use what are essentially incredibly scaled-up infantry weapons and fighter jets use missiles, in particular, MultiPods, which are pods containing up to ten missiles that can each independently track targets in the air, on the ground or on the surface of the sea. Of course, fighter jets still have on-board cannons. Airborne mecha all carry at least one 36 millimeter assault cannon, but they can also carry grenade launchers, heavier guns (usually these are based on large anti-air guns, but heavier cannons can be based on the main cannons of tanks), even swords and other melee weapons. Fighter jets have the same assortment of weaponry they can carry in the real world, as well as the stuff you might find in Ace Combat with laser weaponry and rail guns in development for both airborne mecha and fighter jets.

The most advanced fighters in this world would be things along the lines of an upgraded F-22 Raptor, with improved sensors, radar, 3D thrust vectoring and the like. However, in the beginning, you’ll have to stick with something that has either the airframe of a real world fourth generation fighter or is similar to one. The modifications you can make are up to you though.

Does that answer most of your questions? Feel free to ask anything, I'm working on the OOC and it should be ready within a few days.

In regards to your comment on my signature...

Rem thanks you!

Flight of the Faceless (Flying Mecha and Fighter Jets)

Character sheet is officially ready!

CS

PRINCIPALITY OF REMONI MINISTRY OF DEFENSE
CONFIDENTIAL DOCUMENT

Five (5) Digit MOD Identification Number: This will serve as the Faceless pilot's main means of identification within the database for Faceless pilots. If they are lost in combat, the Faceless pilot's grave will be marked with this number. Superiors are allowed to refer to the Faceless pilot by this number. Civilians without required permissions from the Ministry of Defense cannot know this number.

Name: This name is the choice of the Faceless pilot, whether it be their birth name or their assumed name, it has no importance to the Ministry of Defense and their missions. All uniforms will be issued with Ministry of Defense Identification Number in the place of a name, however, civilian identification documents issued during leave time will use this name. Faceless pilots are forbidden from carrying any items with this name during military operations and they must be disposed of after leave time. If a Faceless pilot is lost in combat, this name will be erased from all Ministry of Defense databases and documents.

Callsign: The Ministry of Defense allows Faceless pilots the choice in their callsign. However, it cannot represent their origin and unlike their name cannot be kept on any objects on your person, whether on leave or in service. The Ministry of Defense can refuse a choice for a callsign on the grounds of it being too long, too complicated to say or containing more than one word.

Age: All Faceless pilots are selected from ages fourteen (14) through twenty (20). There are no Faceless above the age of twenty (20). Do not request information on Faceless who you believe are older than twenty (20). They do not exist. Repeated inquiries on this subject can be interpreted as rebellion and will be treated as severely as desertion. Reminder: the sentence for desertion can, in certain cases, be death. The Faceless Training, Modification and Augmentation Process (FTMAP) takes one year.

Country of Origin: The Ministry of Defense allows Faceless pilots to know their country of origin, however, they cannot carry any object on them that could link them to this country if captured or their remains are found by the enemy. Any objects of this description found by the Ministry of Defense will be destroyed.

Appearance: The Ministry of Defense uses a picture for appearance, this picture must clearly show the face of the Faceless pilot. Only the Ministry of Defense may see this photo and only one (1) copy of it will remain in Ministry of Defense databases. If the Faceless pilot is lost in combat, this picture will be destroyed. A Faceless pilot is allowed to possess personal pictures of themselves, under the condition that this picture does not allow any potential viewer to trace the Faceless pilot’s origins. Alternatively, the Ministry of Defense may keep a detailed description of the Faceless pilot instead of a picture.

Faceless Type: The Ministry of Defense officially acknowledges two (2) types of Faceless. Type A Faceless are Faceless pilots who have no memory of their life before their entry into service. Their loyalty to the Principality of Remoni is ensured by this lack of memory and physical punishment if disobedience is detected. Type B Faceless are Faceless pilots who have memories of their life before the FTMAP and after their entry into service. Their loyalty is only ensured by physical punishment if disobedience is detected No Faceless have memory of the FTMAP. Physical punishment for disobedience involves the following but not limited to; electronic shock, nervous shock, temporary mental impairment, headaches, bleeding from orifices (including but not limited to the nostrils, the mouth and the eyes)…

Type B Faceless are the current type of Faceless pilots, having replaced the production of Type A due to the benefits of less memory destruction. Certain believe there is a third type, called Type C, which instead of having memories that are destroyed, have been reconditioned to have artificial memories. The Ministry of Defense declares that Type C Faceless do not exist. Repeated inquiries on this subject can be interpreted as rebellion and will be treated as severely as desertion. Reminder: the sentence for desertion can, in certain cases, be death.

Bio: The Ministry of Defense keeps a detailed biography of the Faceless Pilot. For Type A pilots, this biography only includes information after entry into service. For Type B pilots, this biography may include their life up until this point. This biography may include the following; former life prior to service as a Faceless Pilot, personality, service record as a Faceless Pilot, hobbies, interests, etc.

Specialization: A Faceless Pilot may be specialized in the use of airborne mecha, otherwise known as Combined Arms Unifiers (CAU), fighter aircraft, or share specialization in both. The Ministry of Defense acknowledges that pilots who are specialized in only one of these two types may be more proficient in combat than those who are specialized in both, however, the versatility offered by being specialized in both is also acknowledged.

Name of Machine: This is the official model name of the machine along with any nickname. The Faceless pilot is allowed a choice between a standard-issue machine (the standard issue airborne mech for the Principality of Remoni is the M-13 “Diamond” and the standard issue fighter aircraft is the F-27 Devil (domestic version of the Satean Su-27 Flanker) and variants) and a machine of their choice.

Profile: The Ministry of Defense keeps a detailed description of the vehicle chosen by the pilot. This can include specifications, history, usage...

Modifications: Any modifications made to the pilot’s machine must be approved and recorded by the Ministry of Defense.

Personal Color Scheme: Faceless pilots use unmarked machines, with no insignia or roundel save for that of the squadron allowed. However, after approval by the Ministry of Defense, a pilot can modify the paint scheme of their machine, under the condition it does not impair the performance of them or their allies and shows no indication of the pilot’s origin.

Preferred Loadout (for airborne mecha): Airborne mecha can use a variety of weaponry, which is left to the pilot’s choice on most occasions but can be changed if mission parameters require it. All airborne mecha must carry at least one (1) thirty-six (36) millimeter assault cannon.

Note for jet fighter pilots: all jet fighters much carry at least two (2) multi-purpose multiple launch missile pods (MultiPods). These each carry up to ten tracking missiles in heavier models capable of attack land, air and seaborne targets. Otherwise, loadouts will vary depending on mission.

OATH: I, A FACELESS PILOT, SWEAR UNDYING LOYALTY TO THE PRINCIPALITY OF REMONI, I DECLARE THAT I WILL ALWAYS FIGHT FOR HER, HER PEOPLE, HER GOALS, I AM ENSURED CERTAIN RIGHTS AND DUTIES AS A FACELESS PILOT AND I WILL ALWAYS ACCOMPLISH THESE DUTIES WITHOUT QUESTION AND WILL NEVER BREAK MY LOYALTY TO THE PRINCIPALITY. IF I DO BREAK THIS OATH, MAY IT MEAN MY DEATH. MAY THE PRINCIPALITY AND HIS MAJESTY BE BLESSED.

Eh... sorry to disappoint you, @Dynamo Frokane, Rem is very much a woman. Wait. Is that ever confirmed? What do we know? WHAT DO I KNOW?!

...I know nothing. My world is falling apart over here. Thanks a lot.

...maybe traps are fine.

Flight of the Faceless (Flying Mecha and Fighter Jets)

@KoL Thank you for your interest, I'm touched that it's enough for you to consider making time for it.

To answer your question, any real world fighter up to the forth generation is fair game and no one needs to pilot both mecha and fighter, they can specialize. I'll gladly let the Su-37 or other Flanker variants in, I'm just against fifth generation fighters in the beginning since all the fighter jet RP's that have fifth gens in the beginning end up having, out of ten fighters: four F-22's, two F-35's, three flankers and one PAK FA, with any others being F-'teens. The Su-37 is fine though!

For everyone's reference, while I'll set up certain mecha and real fighters as the standard issue, I'll allow you to fly a machine of your choice, so long as it's within the realm of reason and fits the setting. Other mecha, even fictional jets are fine, just describe them well and make sure they're not too obsolete and don't surpass the fourth generation standard (I'll allow so-called generation 4++ though) for fighters.
