Planeptune Basilicom, Planeptune

"I bet you're wondering why I've gathered you all here today."

Standing in the Basilicom's entrance hall were an assortment of very important people. The one speaking was a short girl, seemingly just hitting puberty. Her hair was an unkempt purple with two white d-pad hair clips on either side of her head. She wore a large white and purple hoodie dress that reached down to her upper thighs and long striped stockings reaching up above her knees. A large mischievous grin adorned her face as she stared at the guests before her.

"We know why we're here Neptune. This was our idea after all. We called this meeting to talk about the upcoming expedition to the stars. Stop trying to sound so mysterious."

The girl who spoke up was around her later teenage years in appearance. Her long black hair was held in two pigtails reaching all the way down her back and held by two blue ribbons. She wore a fancy maid-like black and white dress with a blue ribbon on her collar. An annoyed expression showed on her face as she stared back at the purple haired girl, Neptune, with her arms crossed in front of herself.

"Geez Noire, way to be a party pooper. And you wonder why you don't have any friends. Poor poor Lonely Heart."

"I'm not lonely, and I do too have friends. You just... haven't met them yet..."

"Wait really? Poor friendless Noire finally found a friend? I don't believe it, you're definitely lying. It's ok Noire, you don't have to pretend around us."

It was at this time another guest decided to speak up.

"I do believe we're getting off topic here. Noire's loneliness is not the topic we came here to discuss."

The speaker this time was a young woman much more mature in appearance. She had long blonde hair and wore a regal-looking green and white dress with gold ends. A small slightly strained smile was present on her face as she tried to steer the conversation back to the correct topic.

"Yeah, Vert's right, some of us are quite busy and we don't need to have you two fighting again when we should be discussing our expansion."

The blonde haired lady, Vert, was joined by a short young girl about the same age as Neptune in appearance. Her short light brown hair hung down to her neck from under a large white hat. Her white dress included thick brown fur on the shoulders with oversized sleeves longer than her arms. She wore a neutral expression which hid a hint of anger at the situation in front of her.

"Blanc is correct, additionally, the CPU Candidates are all waiting aboard their respective nation's ships in orbit. I suggest you all hurry up and finish deciding on what to do with your nations while you are gone and join them."

Appearing from behind Neptune was a small fairy looking girl floating on a book. A white maid headdress sat in her blonde hair and she wore a plain purple dress. On her back was a pair of semi-transparent wings.

"Ah! It's Histy! So then Nep Jr. is already up in the ship she built? Then what are we waiting for? Let's go! You can handle Planeptune while I'm gone, right Histy?"

After saying this, Neptune ran off out the Basilicom door heading straight for the transport shuttle meant to take her up to the ship where her sister waited.

"She never ceases to amaze me. It looks like Neptune's dumped her nation on you again Histoire. As for me, Kei has agreed to handle Lastation until I return. My ship was going to follow Neptune's and I don't trust her not to leave without me so I guess I'll leave now."

"Thank you Noire, I'll be sure to inform you as fast as I can should something arise back here. Please take care of Neptune. I worry about her should we actually encounter other nations."

With this said Noire left for her shuttle, leaving Blanc, Vert, and Histoire in the Planeptune Basilicom. Blanc was the first to speak.

"I'd rather not take my sisters with me on this, but they refused to be left behind. Mina will handle Lowee just fine without me, but tell me if anything happens Histoire. As for you Vert, I'm still not happy about being stuck with you."

"Do not fear Blanc, I'm not interested in you for this trip. But you must admit that your expedition needed some beauty added to it. There's only so much you can do in negotiations with your... small size. Luckily I was able to convince Chika to handle Leanbox while I provide your group with my own charm."

"What did you just say about me? Say that again you fricking bitch! I'll kill you!"

"Now now dear Blanc, we need to get along now that we will be traveling together. It would be quite a shame if I needed to leave you here and take your sisters on this trip without you. I'll be leaving to my ship now. I'd recommend you do the same."

At that Vert left for her shuttle with Blanc following to hers shortly after once she had cooled down a bit. This left a tired looking Histoire alone in the Basilicom.

"What am I going to do with those four... I hope their expeditions are successful, and I hope they stay safe along the way."

Planeptune, High Orbit

As the four CPUs shuttles reached their respective ships, the fleet sitting above Planeptune started to move. The ships under Planeptune and Lastation control went off in one direction while those under Lowee and Leanbox control went in another. Once the ships were set up into their two fleets, the newly developed warp drives activated and the fleets disappeared into the darkness of space, hoping to find others out there among the stars.

Coalition of Gamindustri

Name of Nation: Coalition of Gamindustri

Important Species:

CPUs

CPUs - The leaders of Gamindustri, these so called Goddesses fall under one of two categories: those that were formerly human before consuming a CPU memory and gaining their powers and those who were born through the power of another CPU. CPUs get their power from the faith their people have in them and as such are stronger the more they are loved. They do not age as a result of their status, but they can be slain just as any normal person can once their power becomes depleted either through large conflict or a loss of faith. CPUs have the ability to transform into HDD mode where their connection with their power is stronger and they gain access to it in full. This transformation changes them both physically and mentally as their personalities will shift depending on the CPU while in HDD form. This form can only sustain itself for a short time however and greatly tires the user if they are not careful. While in HDD form the user has increased strength, speed, and endurance as well as limited flight. At current there are 8 CPUs active in Gamindustri.

Humans in Gamindustri are for all intents and purposes exactly the same as a normal human. Other minor races are present but have no real impact. Gamindustri is welcoming of any species willing to serve one of the CPUs.

Government:

Gamindustri is ruled by the CPUs whose job is to protect their followers and lead their nation into prosperity. The current Council of Gamindustri consists of four independent nations working together. The nations themselves each control a singular planet in their home system which serves as their homeland. These nations are as follows:

Cultural Overview:

Planeptune:

Under the control of their CPUs Purple Heart and Purple Sister, otherwise known as Neptune and Nepgear, Planeptune is known as the Land of Purple Progress and is the most friendly of the four nations present in Gamindustri and boasts the highest tech level of all four nations. Despite this, their leader Neptune is incredibly lazy and generally fails to take any situation seriously, leaving her nation's oracle Histoire, a tiny fairy-like creature floating on a book containing a comprehensive list of Gamindustri's history, to the majority of the work running the nation. Despite her flaws, Neptune has a strong sense of justice and will protect her friends as best she can when she is needed.

Lowee:

Under the control of CPU White Heart Blanc and her White Sisters Rom and Ram, Lowee is known as the Land of White Serenity. Lowee prides itself on being a fun place for people of all ages and enjoys year round snowfall on their planet. Their leader Blanc is normally level-headed and calm, preferring to remain by herself and read or write books. If she gets angry however, Blanc becomes incredibly aggressive and will not back down to any perceived insult. In a fight she tends to enter a berserker rage and pummels her opponent into submission.

Lastation:

Under the control of CPU Black Heart Noire and her Black Sister Uni, Lastation is known as the Land of Black Regality. Lastation citizens are known for their hard work ethics and the nation has been making the most progress in terms of military power and invention of all the nations. Combined with the technology of Planeptune, Lastation provides the majority of the Gamindustri military. Their leader Noire is headstrong and prideful, but also isolated due to her position as leader and her hard work prevents her from making any friends. As such she has trouble meeting new people and has no friends apart from the other CPUs.

Leanbox:

Under the control of their sole CPU Green Heart Vert, Leanbox is known as the land of Verdant Pastures. Leanbox considers itself the most regal of the four nations and is the richest from a monetary standpoint. It's leader Vert considers herself the most mature of the CPUs and is an avid video game junkie. Unless there is some important threat, she can usually be found playing MMOs in her room.

Military:

The Gamindustri military is made up of the combined militaries of its four nations. Each is generally led by their CPU themselves. Lastation has the most extensive military and receives aid from the other three nations in most cases. The military consists in large part of bulky robotic soldiers whose main job is simply to destroy the enemy armies as the CPUs deal with anything too powerful for the mechs to deal with. Their weapons range from high-explosive shells to mech-sized Melee weapons to high power energy weapons seen in most Planeptunian weapons. The army also consists of normal soldiers wearing the colors of the nation they fight for.

Technology:

Gamindustri has used a series of large teleportation devices located in the Basilicoms of each nation to travel between the four planets serving as their homeworlds since ancient times. Nobody knows exactly where these devices came from originally, but thanks to some reverse engineering Planeptunian scientists were able to develop space travel for the nations of Gamindustri as well as the basics for a warp drive based FTL system. While space travel has become somewhat common as a means of transport between the nations that doesn't rely on the teleporters, these warp drives have only recently finished development. It is possible for the CPUs to travel between dimensions through the help of Planeptune's oracle Histoire connecting to other Histoires in other dimensions.this takes a large amount of share energy from the CPUs themselves to perform however and isn't commonly used. This knowledge was used to assist in the creation of the warp drives and it is only recently that testing finished and Gamindustri is ready to explore other systems and search for more nations to meet.

History:

(I'm going to be brief and explain some important points, but the history of Gamindustri shouldn't be necessary knowledge and I'd rather not spoil any more of the games than I have to in case others want to play them. That said I'm editing all of the stuff from the games and combining the different stories somewhat)

Gamindustri was originally a primitive lawless group of planets, the home of an ancient advanced civilization which was destroyed and whose ruins can be seen among the nature of the four planets. The first CPU sought to create a new nation where the people wouldn't have to fear the wild monsters and where they wouldn't have to worry about starvation. Thus the nation of Tari was founded in what would eventually be known as Planeptune. Tari was successful for a time before its CPU became mad with power and a rebellion arose against her. Her strength fell as faith in her was lost and in the end Tari destroyed itself. Eventually a new CPU was born and Lowee was founded. It remained the only nation for a long time before slowly other CPUs were born and founded the Planeptune, Lastation, and Leanbox in that order. After a long period of wars between the four, the current CPUs Neptune, Blanc, Noire, and Vert were forced to unite against the Deity of Sin Arfoire who sought all of their destruction. Following this event was the birth of the four CPU Sisters Nepgear, Rom, Ram, and Uni. Now working together, Gamindustri seeks to meet new allies among the stars.

@Keyguyperson@Ophidian
Cool, I guess I'll move my Nation sheet to the characters tab and I'll probably start writing something for the IC tomorrow. Does anyone want a meeting? I'll admit that after reading about the Ziani I could imagine some fun scenes with the characters I'm using.

Stellvia Reboot - a freeform Sci-Fi/Near-future NRP

@Ophidian My nation wouldn't be able to reproduce it, its ancient tech that they don't really understand. It only works between their planets. Essentially they're ancient tech that is merely maintained to provide travel between those four planets. I don't plan to turn it into anything more than that.

Stellvia Reboot - a freeform Sci-Fi/Near-future NRP

@duck55223 I'll keep it at least somewhat serious so long as the situation calls for it, though my characters will likely make jokes fairly often. My nation is more a group of four who haven't always gotten along working together so there'll be some friendly conflict between them and such. But apart from Neptune all of them are likely to be serious when meeting other nations.

Stellvia Reboot - a freeform Sci-Fi/Near-future NRP

I wrote this faster than I thought I would. I guess that's what happens when you blatantly ripoff the setting and characters of the game series you've been playing for the last few months. Anyway here you go. Let me know if anything needs clarifying or if I need to change something. Worth noting, I don't plan on this nation being serious at all and I plan to use it comedically so if anyone wants some non serious insanity send a scout expedition my way.

I'm thinking of joining this as it's still new and I have nothing better to do. Also because Duck sent me a link while I was playing a game so I'll humor him by creating a nation based on what he interrupted. Has anyone here played Hyperdimension Neptunia? My nation will not be serious at all for the most part and probably lower tech than most others though I'll give them newly discovered FTL so they can actually do stuff. I'll also make the nation consist of mostly-humans whose only real difference is elongated lifespans. I'll start writing up a nation sheet soon.

Legacies of the Exodus (Sci-Fi NRP)

@Willy Vereb I wonder why I didn't get notified that you tagged me... Oh well. I'll admit I'm interested, but I don't really have any time to join in this. I'll probably lurk in the shadows though and if work becomes less of a stranglehold I may join at a later date. Don't hold a spot for me or anything though.

[Advanced] The Fall of an Empire: Space Opera NRP

@Willy Verebyea, I was just confirming. I figured that was the case with the tech, and I read how the Sarmakth fight, I was just wondering with your secrecy and such tactics how much you were planning on using human vassals.

[Advanced] The Fall of an Empire: Space Opera NRP

@Willy Vereblooks good, so long as those Hypermatter weapons and things don't get out of hand and OP (though what isn't in these kinds of RPs) it should go well. I imagine much of your small infantry stuff is manipulated humans of some kind right? Either way, accepted.
