"Yeah. Ship crashed there, discovered stuff I'd rather not recall, and finally got stabbed in the side by ghosts and saw a girl get a sword with the cheesiest name I've ever heard. I think saw you there as well, right?"
“That’s right. Sinon Asada, marksman and current bodyguard to a synthetic who honestly doesn’t really need one. Well...the other one is the leader and she’s not exactly built for combat.”
"I guess I'll introduce myself then since we didn't really chat on Palaven. Markos Kalamoutsos, Byzantine Pilot who has the worst luck in existence, apparently."
Markos turns his attention to the hacking going on for a second.
"I don't really understand why whoever assigned you to this assigned you to this, given that it seems like this synth could probably beat up 10 people simultaneously with ease. No offence, of course."
As the two before her would speak all that Vizna could do was listen and sympathies, hearing their strifes and the strifes of their own troubles to explain how in which they have managed to arrive here, to Vizna and what the now buried nest-Queen could still manage to hear.
Their journey here was that of a last ditch attempt of salvation and freedom, already believing to be the impression of the last being of their kin if any more should have survived the journey here, yet before long Vizna's mind would drift back to a topic seen as irrelevant and obscure, compelling her to speak upon their time being over;
- | " I understand your troubles, since our darkness and your... Cataclysm ruined what was your normal life, you are welcomed to stay.. Infact if not given all rights to by the collective grandeur, yet there is one thing which caught my eye.. "
" For how long were both you and your new-Spawn stuck within such.... Caskets for, and for how long do you expect it may take for if there are others to arrive... I as Queen, am permitted the right and role if granted by those distant kin or travelers beyond to care for those who decide to stay and rest.. We have much to offer if you would consider, a simple yes would all it be. "
" But as for the matter at hand.. How long have you been within those, caskets for? " |
Vizna would speak with an almost inquisitive tone now fixated on the topic presented, if not immediately curious on their age as a whole.
“None taken, I think it’s more to keep up appearances, since people aren’t really supposed to know who she really is. Anyway, you hear on vacation or something?”
"I don't think that the "not knowing what they really are" part is going very well, but whatever. Yeah, I somehow got stuck on another planet, though I got conveniently rescued just a day or two later, fortunately. Tried to take a vacation after that by travelling across europe, and it went pretty well. Until now, of course."
Asean? part 2 a meeting in kuala lumpor
Rain landed in the capital of malaya where he was excorted into the sultan's palace to talk about BORFILAYA
Rain: hello your majesty
Ahmad: what do you want
Rain: well we wanted to give you this offer
Rain gave Ahmad the folder of BORFILAYA Ahmad gave the folder to his assistant to read out loud
Ahmad: this deal benifits you more than us
Rain: yes but it will open up new opertunities for you and your country
Ahmad: thats true but what if we refuse
Rain: well we offered the same deal to thailand so if you dont accept you'll be skiping this now we will have a bigger hand to play next time
Ahmad: give us a week
Rain: fine by me
Rain went to the hotel where he will be staying for the week and made a call to manila to send a message to the austranisian president send the deal to thailand
"...yes, it's completely gone. All I know is that I had one, which is better than nothing. But anything before having my core turned on and being fed my new identity and purpose isn't even fuzzy. It's simply empty. Just my luck."
Her last question surprised him for a moment, before he started laughing internally. She probably assumed they were all dead, which wasn't the truth at all, despite being a reasonable guess.
"Oh, they're fine! The only person I actually killed was the guy I disguised myself as. Turns out he had some authority within the company, so when I realized that there'd be other people around I decided to make up various reasons for them to stay home for a while. Less risky than killing them all, that'd be a lot more bodies to hide."
Clearly some more work needed to be done to get rid of his previous nature.
“We’re really going to have to work on that...” Admittedly, the code Penny was working with was more sophisticated than she expected...which in a way frightened her. “You know, I would’ve expected you to be more of a comedian, based on your personality. But maybe you can start your own little business, selling flowers. That would be nice, wouldn’t it?”
EXPANDING THE DRUG TRADE pt.2
OSTERIA LA LISCA | Speranzia, Garibaldi, Stella d’Italia | Italia unita
The flight to from Erimos to Garibaldi was uneventful as any long-distance flight in the hyper speed era. After a smooth takeoff and orbital maneuver from Nova Candia’s Space Port, Rafael clicked the red button that would almost instantaneously put him into orbit around Garibaldi. Soon enough, he touched down in Speranzia with his chrome-clad Cleopatra-class space yacht.
While the Head of the Mano Nera knew he was on a mission, he always wanted to vacation on the Azzurri Coast of Garibaldi, the jewel of the Stella d’Italia System.
After a week long cocaine-fuelled bender of partying and sleeping with beautiful women in all the picturesque fishing villages that surround Speranzia, Mr. Beltran-Fuentes was ready to get back on track and complete the mission. According to Mano Nera operatives on the planet, the Italian Mafia’s favorite meetup spot was an inconspicuous little bar in middle of a working class neighborhood near the fishing docks, Osteria La Lisca.
Rafael entered the establishment in his finest tan suit and took a seat. A young waitress was soon there to take his order.
“Ciao bella. I’ll have a negroni and a plate of grilled octopus. Oh! And can you please tell Ciro that Mr. Beltran-Fuentes is ready to meet him.”, he said with a smile.
The waitress did a poor job hiding her surprise, but she nonetheless obliged and walked towards the private room in the back. Rafael on his part did a poor job hiding the fact he was checking her out.
OSTERIA LA LISCA - The encounter?
Port-city of Speranzia, Planet Garibaldi, Stella d'Italia star system.
Danila, the italo-albanian waitress, looked surprised at the man from Cymiopolis. The surprise was mostly for its greco-venetian accent then for him asking about the Santo Padre. Rosa Nera was starting to attract the most disparate nations.
She walked out, indifferent to the eager eyes of the greek, and entered the private staff room. She looked at Salvo, a mob and owner of the Osteria, that was half-sleeping while watching a virtual match of the galactic soccer cup.
"There's a foreign asshole out here asking to see the Boss"
Salvo moved his hand, distracted
"Not now Danila! Tell the guy I'm busy"
She replied annoyed:
"Not you cazzo! I'm talking about the other Boss"
Salvo got up quickly and turned off the match
"Ah! That must be Beltran." he touched his left ear, a cyborg implant plugged in, and called Ciro della Rosa.
"Sir, Beltran is here. I'll escort him to your location".
He walked out of the room and quietly nodded at Beltran to follow him out of the Osteria to the Port of Speranzia.
Beltran finished his negroni and walked out after Salvo in the chilly evening of the Port city.
An old motorboat was waiting hidden. That will carry them to the secret temporary location of Ciro.
Salvo hopped in after Beltran, turned on the outdated engine and they disappeared through the waves while the alien sky was turning pitch black.
Hey guys

Mentioning the One & Only - Achipel
With the Prototype underway for it's first flight, a destination would be selected far from the origins it was created upon, now undergoing both a first flight and the attempted establishment of a new Trans-Atlantic route to the Americas, midway into this flight would be interrupted with the surprise strike of a flock of geese into the still experimental jet engine, now with one of two engines on fire and the risk of explosion a detour would be attempted to return back.
That was before the explosion would force it's hand now descending and crashing onto what could only be an Uninhabited Island.

Russian Stealth P.2
North America | Greater Florida | St. Augustine | 13 Hours Later
The two teams were apart of an elite organization that guard the Imperial family. The Protectors of Heaven and the Defenders of Earth. The brawns of this mission were members of the elite Imperial Guard, the Protectors of Heaven. Normally, the Protectors of Heaven would not leave the Emperor's side unless assigned to very specific, very delicate military missions or matters of state.
The brains of this operation were members of the Imperial Guard as well, though they do not guard the Imperial family called the Defenders of Earth. Instead, they are the eyes, ears, and blades of the Emperor. Normally, they would be in friendly, hostile, or neutral countries providing information to the Emperor or stand guard as the watch of the Imperial palace. However, both the Protectors of Heaven and the Defenders of Earth had been sent to this mission in order to sway relations with the New United Carolinas after recent events with another ally, the Ventusians, required that the New United Carolinas shift their support more towards the Empire.
However, that was no longer the case. After successfully sneaking into Greater Florida and setting up a base and preparing for an assault on a military communications instillation, their presence had apparently been leaked to both the Jakkonians and Ventusians who were also in this country. Now, eyes had to be put on their movements too as neither were being exactly...sneaky. The past few hours had been spent relocating the safe house, making sure the previous operation could still continue, and to put digital eyes on both the Jakkonian contractors and Ventusian ONI team. Not to mention that they had to also overhaul all of their methods in order to make sure that neither could find them again.
Thankfully, the operation could continue. A nice rain had moved into the city right as the sun began to retreat behind the horizon, and would continue into the night. The Reaper and his team suited up, grabbed their weapons, and the team of six loaded up in a van...with the BlackStone logo painted on the side (but hidden for now). The brains, led by Frostbite, stayed at the safehouse to deal with the digital warfare. Reaper's team began their trip to the facility, but stopped under an underpass to take off the layer of 'paint' concealing the Blackstone logo before making their approach to the facility. As the van pulled up to the US era NSA site, now retrofitted as a military communications hub, Frosbite's team began shutting down alarms, cameras, and communications. As the van pulled up to the first checkpoint, the guard walked out to meet them. Before he made it to the car, the gate retracted back into the ground, and the guard fell onto the asphalt.
The team parked the car in the parking lot as the exterior lights went out. The doors slid open and the team of six stepped out and began their mission to breach the building. What guards were outside when the lights were killed, shortly fell over themselves. The rain pulling the blood from their bodies and the thunder hiding the shots. Time was ticking away as the compound would be informed of their presence soon enough, but only if they took too long to complete their mission.
(Part 3 will continue the story)
well retconn is done
Welcome to the New West Indies Charvo Hope you have a good time here!
I'm definitely looking forwards to know you better, feel free to drop a TG if you have any questions!
This dispatch should help you make your first steps here
Our community is a dedicated group of roleplayers, government workers, lawmakers, comedy junkies, flag-makers, designers, and many more!
Founded on March 7th, 2018 by Achipel, the New West Indies (NWI) initially created a modern roleplay canon that has continued ever since. Nations began solely in the Caribbean area of the map, but as the community grew (and grow quickly it did), the roleplay became more complex with it, becoming more Post-Modern and spawning a variety of new adventures.
Vexillology (flag-making) is at the heart of the region. Experienced creators like Cymiopolis, New united carolinas, and Portinabia (among others) frequently show off their skills.
Government and lawmaking have recently begun to take hold, as many experienced members debate potential reforms and changes to regional institutions and affairs.
Members often discuss politics, memes, games, and other topics on our Regional Message Board (RMB) and especially Discord. Anyone who follows the rules and wants to have a good time in their area of interest is welcome here!
Apply for Citizenship! |
You should start your New West Indies experience by completing the Citizenship Application, which will allow you to experience roleplay, lawmaking, and other engaging activities! Once you fill it out completely, relevant authorities will inform you if it is approved.
Make sure to answer every question! To decide what RP claim you want (if desired), go to the Regional Map – make certain that what you want isn't already taken (is any color besides grey). If you are having trouble with the app, contact a regional officer.
Explore our Community! |
Our discord server is the best place to start – you can begin mingling with the citizenry and ask questions if you're confused. You can also introduce yourself on the RMB as well.
Our Constitution outlines our laws and values – every citizen should read it and be familiar with the rules of the Indies road.
Speaking of the RMB, getting your feet wet in roleplay is quite important if you want to participate. Whether you're a newer player or experienced roleplayer, it's beneficial to get your first post out there and introduce yourself in- and out-of-character.
Finally, you should consider accessing the following resources for knowledge and further assistance:
| Where you can find links to every regional resource, including many described in this document | |
| Are you confused by NationStates lingo or our region's terminology? This ought to help |
Roleplay! |
Roleplay (RP) is the main attraction for new and old members alike. Start by creating your nation's basic lore; where is it on the map? What are its socioeconomic challenges? What are its politics like? These questions and others will guide you through creating an overview dispatch (such as this one) if you are so inclined. Otherwise, begin diplomatically engaging and describing the issues your nation faces on the RMB, so everyone can start getting familiar.
Once you are settled into the canon, branch out! Create some personable characters, discuss IC legislation in the Union of Nations, make an alliance, or create your own business! If you are so inclined, and become familiar with our guidelines, you could even make your own roleplay for the region! The possibilities are truly at your leisure (barring something extraneous).
See below for further assistance.
| To start getting acquainted with how RP functions in our region, see here | |
| Introduction to the story so far | |
| Where all regional roleplay resources are housed in one place |
Participate in the General Assembly! |
Once you become a citizen, you are automatically a member of the NWI General Assembly (GA), our regional lawmaking body. As such, you have the opportunity to not only vote on and discuss legislation, but you can also propose your own! We have many experienced members that can assist in the process, especially for newer members. The best way to begin learning about the GA and discuss law is to join our discord and go to the GA channel.
| Supreme NWI Law | |
| A repository of all passed GA legislation | |
| How to design and code resolutions |
Contribute to the Regional Government! |
Our Executive Branch is made of the Secretary-General, the head of government, who every six months (once elected) appoints a cabinet of four Secretaries that make up the "Secretariat." These nations execute GA law, protect the region, and moderate certain regional affairs.
Once you become more familiar with our region, any citizen can run for office, whether that be the Secretary-General or General Assembly President! Additionally, you can be appointed to a Secretarial position or a lower role within one of the Executive departments.
Even if you do not want to work in government, it is your prerogative as a citizen to vote in elections, which increases representation and makes government work better for the people as a result.
Join the World Assembly! |
Joining the world assembly not only provides many benefits to you, but also helps the region in numerous ways.
Once you've joined the world assembly, you should endorse the current delegate (Karteria), which allows the delegate to have more sway in World Assembly voting and further secures the region. You can also discuss current WA topics and legislation with other members of the NWI in our WA channel on discord.
See "2.4 What is the World Assembly?" near the bottom of this document for instructions on how to attain WA membership.
Issues are the key to any initial NationStates experience. To access them, click the button in the top left corner of your page that says "issues." From there, you can answer the critical questions for your nation however you please.
Depending on how you answer issues, they will affect your nation's "stats" and potentially enact "policies." See the toolbar on your nation's page (underneath your motto) for more information about each effect.
Issues have no major bearing on regional roleplay, but they can give you ideas for how to formulate your nation in-character. Just answered an issue enacting euthanasia, or banning nuclear power? Why not do it in RP too!
If you don't want to answer issues, or you want to answer them more/less frequently, you can adjust the duration between each one in your nation's settings.
Dispatches are canvases for nations to express anything they wish in a public setting. You can write, roleplay, campaign, design art, or anything in between – all through a simple dispatch.

Achipel, Karteria, and Italia unita
“You’d be surprised...she seems a lot more human than you’d think...that being said, she loves to say hello and is probably the most positive person I’ve ever met.”
"Huh. Interesting. Would you say that they're "Human" to the point of sentience, or do they just have a friendly personality coded into them that makes them that way?"
"I'll keep my options open, the whole florist thing was more me throwing ideas around. It's not going to be anything involving murder, since that's something I need a break from. A long break, preferably."
Even with him still putting up some resistance, that wasn't a lie. Having your entire purpose be killing people gets a bit tiring after a while, and with how unlikely he was to get out of this unaltered he was looking forward to having a less violent existence.
"I shouldn't be the one asking the questions here... but you seem to care about her a lot. Heidi, I mean. So what does she truly mean to you? I'm curious, that's all. And if you don't want to answer I can't stop you."
“As far as I know, it’s mostly a program but...if it really is all that I’m still impressed...”
Penny hesitated for a moment. “She may not technically be my first friend...but she’s the only friend who can relate to me. I wish she had never gone through what she did but...then I never would have met her. She’s someone special to me...though I’m not sure if she feels that way about me...”
"I suppose so. I assume you can't tell me their origin or whatever because it's classified or something like that."
"So that's how it is... thanks for telling me. Considering you just averted an attempt on her life, I doubt she doesn't at the very least see you as a friend as well. Whether there's anything more to it than that, I couldn't tell you. That's for you to find out. I'm no expert on relationships."
Penny was quiet for a moment. “There’s one last thing...I’m going to have it seem you were able to kill Heidi but were killed in the process as well. That way you’ll be free of them as well. I hope one day you’ll be able to remember your old life, but even if you don’t, it’s never too late to start over...” After a few more moments she stopped and sighed. “It is done...”
