TGOD OOC Thread.

[Ra]

I'll go into more detail on some of my main characters, I guess.

Srenn:

One of the oldest among the living Kull Warriors, Srenn was a Kull that abandoned Anubis' camp, and joined Ra, shortly after Anubis' defeat. A powerful soldier and skilled commander, Srenn was granted more intelligence, and in time, emotions of his own. Ra favored him, and made him First Prime once the Jaffa were replaced by cloned Kulls as the Great Army of the Sun.

Srenn is still somewhat detached, not as emotional or "honor-bound" as the Jaffa of old. He is also an expert in unarmed combat, although Kulls have their weapons integrated into their suits. Srenn is also a symbol to the Kull Warriors, and loved by the older, emotion-gifted Kulls, although the Army of the Sun's devotion will always be to their God and Goddess, Ra and Galadriel.

Ra:

Despite being "killed" over Abydos, Ra managed to be brought back to life by the remnants of the United Alliance of System Lords, as a leader to reunite them and fight the half-Ascended Anubis. Despite this, the reborn Supreme System Lord had his own plans; to regain his domain and dominate not just the Goa'uld, but the Jaffa, and Mankind.

Betraying the UASL, Ra also took advantage of Anubis' eventual defeat, acquiring his technology and remaining forces. For most of the early days of Ra's return, he was occupied fighting Baal and the Jaffa Nation.

At some point in time, Ra came upon Valinor (it somehow got in space, so Humans would never find it). Seeing a marvelous world of gods and Elves, Ra knew he couldn't defeat them, and chose a truce instead.

Lady Galadriel:

Powerful, mysterious, beautiful, and wisest among the Eldar, Galadriel, formerly known as the Lady of the Wood (as she ruled the Lorien forest in Middle Earth), returned to Valinor at the end of the Third Age, and was placed on the Eldar council as a powerful leader.

Centuries after this, the forces of the alien Ra arrived at Valinor by accident, and chose peace. This was heavily due to Galadriel's telepathic manipulation of the Goa'uld.

Many, including Ra, were shocked by her decision to ally with the Supreme System Lord. Even today, no one, not even Ra, knows the true nature of her alliance, or her motives. Even so, together they became an nigh-unto unstoppable force in the rebuilding of the Goa'uld realm. Her wisdom, knowledge, and great power ascended Ra back to his old position, and brought fear to the other System Lords.

It is said that Lady Galadriel was the prime factor of Ra's return to power, and the Free Jaffa call her the "High Queen of the System Lords", among other things. As they have no knowledge of the Eldar, they believe she is another Goa'uld, with powers that match or surpass those of Anubis.

Ra attempted a more romantic alliance with the Eldar queen early on, as he didn't know of her husband, Celeborn. Celeborn and Ra fought in brutal personal combat, and Ra was beat by the Elf. From then on, the relationship between Goa'uld and Elf has strictly been professional.

Khardem:
Few know anything of the mysterious Ancient One that now helps the A'millan in their quest to destroy the Galactic Empire. Quiet, enigmatic, and shockingly knowledgeable, Khardem's knowledge spans almost a million years, making him more ancient than even Galadriel, previously the oldest of the major figures in the War of Fire.

Khardem's powers are great, just like the other Ancient Ones. He is a manifestation, or avatar, of the Ancients' will, and is perhaps similar in function to the Borg Queen. Despite this, he is clearly an individual, and speaks of the Ancient Ones in the third person.

[Robert Walper]

I really want to lightsabre duel him. That will be a blast to write.

Damn straight. :thumbsup How would you want to play it out though, DXV? Write it together in one piece, or just "go with the flow" battle scene piece by piece? I favor the last one there myself... :D

[Robert Walper]

Well, in regards to my character, I'm afraid I have no image nor do I possess the capability to make one. Suffice to say, my Borg body would look pretty much like the drone "One" seen here:



My face would naturally be my own Borgified:



And my upper head would resemble the Borg Queen's here:



Thus, if you kinda throw those three aspects into one character, you'll get the general image of what I look like in this TGOD. :P

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

Khardem: The Ancient Ones' spokesman, a devious and cunning man that is superficially friendly. He also introduces biolaser technology to the A'millan, among other things.[/b]

Alright, pardon my interjection (or is it interjecting? argh!) but the biolaser is as powerful as Imperial turbolaser.

So for the sake of fairness, the weapon is only available to the A'millans (that is, the faction belongs to Destructionator XV). FYI, the A'millans is also the race under the influence of the Ancient Guardians, like the Centauri in Babylon Five.

See, making the biolaser avaiable to the Daleks and Trollish Imperium has the same effect as giving turbolaser to the Borg and the Goa'uld. I don't think such STGOD would be interesting. Let's keep the variety of weapons among the combatants.



And some notes....

She was married to (now late) Captain Victor Patterson of Imperial Navy, but rumored to have an affair with Darth Kreshna.

Ra attempted a more romantic alliance with the Eldar queen early on, as he didn't know of her husband, Celeborn. Celeborn and Ra fought in brutal personal combat

Ra and Darth Kreshna are losing their life-force as they're both being beaten to death by a mob of angry husbands. Some of them are yelling, "kill those two!" "keep them away from our wife!"

:P

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

Damn straight. :thumbsup How would you want to play it out though, DXV? Write it together in one piece, or just "go with the flow" battle scene piece by piece? I favor the last one there myself... :D

I vote for the latter, but probably you two will need some kind of setup, like what is the composition of the forces involved, what kind of weapons they would use (is the Destructionator fleet already using the biolaser in this scenario, or not yet?)?

How about the Lightsaber duel itself? Would it happen during ground combat or space combat? Or there won't be any battles in the background? If that's the case then it would be simpler.

Remember the battle of Pluto, where Ra's squad of 20 people or such was assaulted by 50,000 Trolls! Let's keep it from happening again, people! ;)

[Ra]

Ra and Darth Kreshna are losing their life-force as they're both being beaten to death by a mob of angry husbands. Some of them are yelling, "kill those two!" "keep them away from our wife!"

A side note on the Galadriel/Ra thing, he never got very far in it. More like this:

Ra: And you are beautiful beyond imagination.

Galadriel: *smug expression* I know.

*Ra reaches in for the kiss, and... is pulled back by his hair.*

Celeborn: What are you doing with my wife, Snake Boy?

Ra: WIFE? I thought that ring was for power or something.

Celeborn: It is. *DROP-KICK!*

*Galadriel smiles evilly.*



Anyway, if Celeborn wouldn't have intervened, Galadriel would have been the one drop-kicking him. She found his entire attempt laughable, to say the least...

But anyway, I added that because someone might have asked "why hasn't anything developed between them?" After all, we've got the false-god that always gets his way, and the super-hot Elf queen.

It was my way of saying, "it never will". Also, she's been married to that Celeborn dude for like 15,000 years.
- Ra

EDIT: Don't let this "relationship" distract from the main points, though. It's a forgetable footnote only.

[Dartzap]

Sod! there arnt any decent images of the discworld trolls to use!

anywhoo: Lord Detritus is some 800 years old as an incarnate form, he has a somewhat limited power over such things as the planet he stands on and is able to make the planet start spew boldors if he so desires.

Admrial Flint: CiC of the Trollish Forces, takes orders directly from Detritus, is a great tactican and devised one of the first new stratagies in the war. He commands the Ruby's Pride

Commander Flotsam, is the lowest ranked CO to command a fleet flagship, his speciality is the use of ground forces (expect to see him in the future)

General Igneous: anouther Ground force Specialist

General Fiddyment, specilised in Space warfare, and is expected to be the replacement for Admrial Flint, if he pops his pebbles.

i'm sure ive forgotten a few.

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

WIFE? I thought that ring was for power or something.

OMG that is one hilarious excuse!

Probably I should try it in real life....

Sod! there arnt any decent images of the discworld trolls to use!

I'm not very informed on Discworld Trolls. And what's the relation with Lord Detritus' godhood? It is something based on Discworld or your own invention? Come on, the Trolls start to be more mysterious than the Ancients! ;)

General Fiddyment, specilised in Space warfare, and is expected to be the replacement for Admrial Flint, if he pops his pebbles

Am I the only one who thinks that you were implying testicles?

[Dartzap]

I'm not very informed on Discworld Trolls. And what's the relation with Lord Detritus' godhood? It is something based on Discworld or your own invention? Come on, the Trolls start to be more mysterious than the Ancients!

Discworld Trolls are litrally are Living rock, they have been at war with the Dwarves for millenia, in Discworld, Sergeant Detritus is a member of the Ankh-Morpork city watch.

The brains of trolls are silacon based and the colder they are, the more inteilligent they are.

On discworld there have been Trolls who have lived for almost 10,000 years and have grown to the size of mountains, some have an Inbuilt magic of sorts which is rarely used in the books.

So, i just turned them from a mountain race into an astroid habiting race, which wasnt too hard.

Detritus has always been my fave character from the Watch books

In Discworld, there something like one million gods, so it's not hard to imagine they would have a proper god of Trolls, so Detritus easily fits in there somehow.

And the pebbles thing was meant to be like "Pop's his clogs" as it were, not his minirocks. :P

[Destructionator XV]

Robert: the battle will progress slowly. It will take many posts to finish, we will just 'go with the flow'.

Ra and Kreshna: The control relationship between my knight and Khardem: will it be more like the Tok'ra (where both can speak in a nice relationship) or a goa'old (where one is completly supressed)? I certainly would prefer Tok'ra, and as the stroy progresses it can become more goa'old until we kill Khardem and get my man back.

And now for my cast:

Lord Adam: speaks in orange. He is 1,918 years old, and has a human apperance. He in fact looks like me (see the member pic thread) but with more of a coolness factor. Maybe later today or tomorrow I'll dress up and snap a pic.


He was born on A'millian Prime in AW 2086 and never know his biological family. He survived because of the A'millian empire's generous social programs. He wandered, reading random books and eventually found he has skill with magic. Looking for something to do, he decided to join the Imperial Knights, where he was trained to use his magical powers and to fight. The Knights gave him his first thing resembling a family, and he was very attached to his work. He made one of his first long time friends in training, a young knight from Wivillia named Michael. Later in life, the Lord would be torn when his friend takes a stance that the government should become a true republic. He soon took a double enlistment into the newer branch called Starfleet, and passed all the officer exams without needing the classes. Lord Adam has never had a formal schooling.

When the Korallian war broke out, he was one of the first knights sent into battle to defend the homeworld. While investigating a WMD laboratory the Korallians had on a mountain with Sir Michael, he found two young children, orphaned by the Korallian firebombing of their town. He took these children back with him after the mission and raised them in his barracks. Also on this mountain, he saw one of his first instances of true evil. The enemy was using prisoners of war as test subjects for a weapon designed to kill his entire race. However, he did not realize the power of this weapon until it was too late.

On his next assignment, he met a very young knight who would later become the Lady of the empire, who was also double enlisted with Starfleet. He befriended her, but they were not yet very close.

Soon after this mission, the A'millians routed the Korallians from the surface, and the space war was in full swing. Adam, Michael, and the Lady (who has a name, but I never found one suitable for her...) were transferred to the light destroyed, the ASV Falcon. During the first major battle, the Falcon was crippled and most her crew disabled. Adam, a mere Lieutenant at the tiem, was forced to take command, and the Lady was the only other bridge officer still able to work. For two long weeks, they and the 15 other men who could still work started to save the ship. They thought they were dead when an enemy battleship attacked them. However,Adam and the Lady used some unconventional (ok, technobabble) tactics to disable the battleship with their crippled ship. Adam demanded that he get a subspace transmitter in return for letting the enemy go free. He got it, and in a few more days, an A'millian rescue ship arrived and brought them home. During this mission, Adam and the Lady grew to be very close friends. From now on, they would never be far from one another.

After the war, Adam started researching new technologies. He constructed the first AI riviling normal people's thought capabilities. He also designed the bulk of the systems used on the Warrior class starship, and was present for the prototype's launch. Due to his work in advancing society, King Devon granted him a special lordship title - one which put him in direct line for the throne. He and the Lady continued their service, researching new technology, exploring strange, new worlds, and seeking new life and new civilizations.

His old friend, Sir Michael, became more of a political activist. He felt thet the monarchy was antiquated, and only kept around for tradition. His requests to change the system were shot down, so he decided to go back to Wivillia, where he could work on designing a new society there. He succeeded in making it into a true Republic in time, but his hard feelings towards the A'millians for ignoring his requests and his campaign used to show that monarchys are bad made his people feel that they must convert the A'millians to their enlightened government by any means neccessary.

The Wivillians timed their attack to coincide with the weaking of the magic seal that keeps forces of evil at bay. For the first time, the A'millians would have to fight the magical incarnates and the technology of Wivillia at once. This period is called the 3rd Universe war, and it lasted from AW 3000 - AW 3009. Lord adam and the Lady now were important factors in fighting this war, and they lost much. The two children Lord Adam adopted during the Korallian war, now married, were killed in brutal combat. Lord Adam was devastated, but with the strength of the Lady, he pulled through.

Near the end of the war, Lord Adam and Sir Michael had an epic duel in which Lord Adam defeated him, bringing a cease fire between the A'millians and the Wivillians. About the same time, A'millian wizards were able to reseal the evil forces, bringing an end to the war. But there was on last act which would happen. After most the 'millians were back home on their planet, a ship jumps in, drops a package, and jumps back out before any of our ships could intercept it. This package is the perfected weapon devloped to kill off their race. It worked.

Lord Adam and his party return home after a detour to find no humanoid lifesigns at all on their homeworld. They see that other life still exists, but the A'millians were gone. Their population of about 1.6 million (a small number I know, but they would rather research subspace anomilies than breed) killed in one strike. Lord Adam's small ship and one other ship escaped the assualt. Only 14 survivors remained. But they were A'millians, and they would rebuild the glory of their homeworld.

Over the next thousand years, Lord Adam, now absolute ruler, and his right hand, the Lady, along with the others under him built back their glorious empire into a galactic power, using mostly humans, as the A'millian species is now virtually extinct.

In AW 3992, the A'millian empire is the strongest force in their known space. The brutal ENF, who would be found to be responsible for the weapon which killed the A'millian people, decided it was time to finish off the A'millian honour. They forced the Wevillians and Sir Micheal to again fight with them by station planet killers around their planet and using a massive propaganda campaign to trick the public. They also reopened the evil seals, making the A'millians (the empire, not the species) heve to fight 3 great powers at once. This is the 4th universe war, and is still going on today.

AW 4005, today. Lord Adam is on a special expedition to another galaxy to avenge the loss of many of his AI comrades. And the events back home continue to unfold...


Good god, I typed up a whole damn biograpghy. Anyhow, here is the short stories on the other characters:

The Lady: speaks in pink.

About 1,700 years old, graduated with honours from all the old A'millian prestigious schools, and is the 2nd in command of the A'millian Star Empire. (Her precise age and name have not been decided yet...) She has been Lord Adam's closest friend for about 1700 years, since the Korallian war. She and he think in very similar ways, and together they are way too awesome to desribe.

In appearance, she is increadbly beautiful. She has long, pointed, and sensitive ears, usally covered up by her long, yellow hair. Lord Adam considers her to be the most perfect person in the universe in all respects, even beating out goddesses he's met.

Amazingly, neither of them have even been in any kind of romantic relationship. Neither of them have even ever been kissed. Their relatioship transcends any physical thing possible. (Perfection, IMO)

She is a skilled pilot and negotiator. She has incredible powers, and awesome skills in most fields. You do not want to face her.

The Destructionator Mainframe: speaks in bright purple

A huge computer that resides in a moon that controls the entire line of Destructionator AIs. Built not very long ago, it is a new project under Lord Adam which does mostly covert operations. It also builds new Destructionator ships and androids.

The Destructionator AI project: started by Lord Adam, now headed up by the mainframe. It produces Destructionators, which most look like Cmdr Data, and a new line which looks like Sailor Moon. They also build automated ships. It is a secret project, unlike most his AI projects.

Destructionator XIII: speaks in this color

An android, who looks like Cmdr Data, designed to infiltrate a bastion of logic on the planet Earth and flame the piss out of its trolls. He has since expanded into TGODing, which is how he got involved in this mission. He is currently Destructionator ambassador to the Trollish kingdon (ironic, isn't it).

Destructionator XIV speaks in yellow

Another android, who looks like Cmdr Data, designed for ground based TGODing on an earth message board. He was assigned to the first mission to command an army of Picard clones, who were demoralize the enemy while normal Destructionators shot them.

He was on the Genator when it exploded. Missing, presumed dead.

Destructionator XV: speaks in this color

One of the mainframes new models, which looks like Sailor Moon. Designed to chase and destroy socializers from XIII's domain, s/he was assigned to lead the fleet into the new system immediataly.

Had a short career, as s/he was on the Genator when it exploded. Missing, presumed dead.

The mainframe is working on building replacement bodies for these two units.

Captian Willis

Looks like a tall human with a full beard and bald head. Weight like Captian Kirk in ST6. His face is long, like Senator John Kerry.

A human officer in the A'millian starfleet, commander of the crusier Iyo. His carrer has been rather simple, command two ships before his current assignment. He is mostly a by the book officer, and has no special instances on his record... until now.

Commander Peters

Looks like first season Riker.

Another human officer in the A'millian starfleet, first officer of the crusier Iyo. He always has great concern for his officers, and does not like them taking risks. Cautious, but friendly. He has special marks on his service record for his cautious streak. A good, loyal officer.

Captian Rogers

A humaonid officer and scientist. Commander of the science ship Kokoya

I'll edit in the rest of the details. I have been typing this for almost an hour!



An officer

[Robert Walper]

Robert: the battle will progress slowly. It will take many posts to finish, we will just 'go with the flow'.

Sounds good.

However, I do have a concern. I've obviously made my character quite powerful. He just created a Force storm recently (wiping out over a thousand Dalek ships), and as your fleet found out awhile back, in a rage tapping the Collective Force potential, he can lay waste to a significant portion of an enemy fleet simply by crushing the ships or tossing them around (you know...when he crushed the bow of your ship ;)). Obviously such displays of power are costly as he found out, but he does have them at his disposal. Hence, I wouldn't want the fight to simply be composed of my character slamming a battleship sized craft at your position, but I don't want to sacrifice the already displayed abilities of my character.

I suggest a reason needs to come up as to why such "uber" abilities aren't available during our personal combat confrontation...and hopefully a good one. :)

I figured perhaps the Ancients would step in, hindering a large portion of the Collective during a massive battle. Hence, a great deal of my focus and Force strength will be applied towards maintaining the Collective on the battlefront and against the Ancient's effects. Leaving me in a significantly hindered state to combat you. Perhaps at more normal Jedi levels, like Count Dooku. 8-)

Keeping in mind though DXV, my body is obviously mostly artificial as well, with enhanced reflexes, strength and speed. So your character shouldn't be all that much more impressive in raw physical form than my own. Combining Force powers and precog, even without the Collective Force potential, my character will be a most formitable combatant. :P

Time to brush up on the enemy combatant it seems. *goes to re read your Lord Adam's specs again* ;)

[Robert Walper]

BEHOLD DXV!! THE FACE OF YOUR UPCOMING SLAYER!!



:P

PS: Afraid that's the best I can do at the moment for slapping together my portrait with the Borg body anyhow. The head tech is a bitch...I doubt I can do it. However, the above effort ain't half bad, especially considering I did it in MS Paint. :)

Interesting, but how about this instead?

Well, Destructionator's facton had just been visited by the Ancient Guardians; they are being corrupted by the Ancients (like the Centauri or President Clark's Earth was corrupted by the Shadows).

Well the Ancients already gave the biolaser to Destructionator, so why don't they bestow Lord Adam with their godly power as well? (at least during the duel).

Well both combatants would start pretty normal. Both are holding back as they're assessing each other, but later, it would turn to a battle of the gods!

Imagine Lord Walper and Lord Adam have a lightsaber duel, while a fleet of the Borg and the Ancients are exchanging fire in the background (the Borg cubes should be more numerious, though, since an Ancient vessel is as equal as TWO Star Destroyers!).

While the fleets are engaging each other, they are are straining in channeling their life-force energy to the two duelling combatans on the planet below.

Imagine this:

A Borg cube explodes with strain as Lord Walper is being pushed back by the massive, immense power of Lord Adam's attack.

Yes, the battle of the gods! Later, (a final showdown between the Empire and the Ancients), the winner will face an insane Darth Kreshna near the end of the story.

But remember, first thing first], the Borg cubes should be protected from the "calming" song of the Ancients. Coincidentally, Ra is currently developing a device to resist the "song", so why not involving the Borg? There are already Imperial and Goa'uld scientist in Ra's lab, so how about some drones assisting the research? Using nano-tech and such, you know!

And how about the idea that the Borg have met the Ancients before? How about the Borg remembers the Ancients as Species 0021 or such that almost wiped the entire Collective, so the Borg holds a grudge against the Ancients.




By the way, Ra and his "NPCs" are heading for Dathomir to investigate something. How about the Trollish? How about joining Ra and his party in an STGOD "adventure"? I imagine they would cooperate in an uneasy, temporary "truce", after a brief fire exchange, of course!

But Dartzap, remember to use small force this time! :P Perhaps a squad?




Ah, and I would make some ideas regarding for further plot development:

The Empire is getting more and more reclusive, withdrawing itself from the Axis while engaging in some mysterious activities like destroying planets or firing at some emtpy spots in space.

So the Axis is left with the Goa'uld, the Borg, and small faction of "renegade" Imperials under the command of Captain Laurence (few Star Destroyers, an Eclipse, and a World Devastators at most).

Meanwhile, the Allies starts to feel an uneasy tense as the Destructionators start to be corrupted by the Ancients.

Eventually, the Axis and the Allies go for a truce, a cooperation to save the Solar System and the sentients being; especially when they discover that the Empire is planning to destroy the entire galaxy, starting from this Solar System, to eradicate the threat of the Ancients.

The ending would be a massive showdown between the Empire (under an insane Darth Kreshna) and the Ancient Guardians, while the Axis and the Allies are cooperating to prevent the massive destruction they will cause.



Ideas? Thoughts?

[Robert Walper]

I like your ideas KAN. They sound good to me.

Honestly though, my only restriction now is going to be time. With summer pretty much here, I won't be on the computer quite as much. But I will try to follow along and get my good ole wanking...erm...I mean, productive posts in the TGOD. ;)

And yes, given your description of "Battle between Gods", I'm damn looking forward to engaging Lord Adam now.

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

I like your ideas KAN. They sound good to me.

Thanks! 8-)

And yes, given your description of "Battle between Gods", I'm damn looking forward to engaging Lord Adam now.

IIRC Adam has trouble with his connection availability, so he couldn't connect very often. You may want to make appointment with him to arrange when you're going to duel each other! (remember the time zone difference, though).

[Adam's work computer sux]

Remember, Lord Adam and his empire aren't puny so on their own.

Even without those Ancient bastards I am going to kick some cyborg ass.

And if those ancients try to userp my power, we will phasorize the lot of them faster than you can say

"UNLIMITED POWER!"

I don't mind working with them, but if they try to take over my empire, they are dead to me. This is part of my in-universe character. Keep this in mind as you write the ancient's parts.

[Destructionator is lazy]

IIRC Adam has trouble with his connection availability, so he couldn't connect very often. You may want to make appointment with him to arrange when you're going to duel each other! (remember the time zone difference, though).

That has been remedied. I bought broadband at home, and my job is slow enough that I can spend alot of time browsing forums from there.

Though the work computers use IE and it has a nasty habit of crashing whenever I try to post, so I am logged out alot as I restart the browser.

But, in short, I will be on anytime that I am not sleeping.

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

And if those ancients try to userp my power, we will phasorize the lot of them faster than you can say

Nope, you can't. They're very powerful. An Ancient Vessel equals two star destroyers. Not to mention they "Syreen Song". Your crew would stay docile despite the ship is being shredded by their biolasers.

I don't mind working with them, but if they try to take over my empire, they are dead to me. This is part of my in-universe character. Keep this in mind as you write the ancient's parts.

They are NOT going to take over your empire; they merely want to destroy the entire sentient beings in the universe. ;)

In fact, their influence over your nation is not some sort of "zombifying" mind control. Nope, their approach is way more subtle .

The control relationship between my knight and Khardem: will it be more like the Tok'ra (where both can speak in a nice relationship) or a goa'old (where one is completly supressed)? I certainly would prefer Tok'ra, and as the stroy progresses it can become more goa'old until we kill Khardem and get my man back.

No, not mind control, no surpression. Kardhem is a normal human being (humanoid?) which will act as mentor/advisor to Lord and Lady Adam.

I imagine the Knight would go into a trance, then saying something about going to Dathomir and finding a man named Khardem.

Now Khardem's influence is very subtle. First he will offer wonderful technologies like biolaser or such, without asking something in return (as if they're just a grant from the Ancients). Then he will gain trust and become an advisor.

But his advice are all deceitful! While they sound beneficial on the surface, they're actually pieces of a big trap that is being weaved by the Ancients.

The goal is to influence your kingdom to follow their doctrine: emotionless death.

Frankly I still haven't figured out how it would work. Probably this Khardem would devise a new "religion"? A doctrine that appears benevolent at first (calmness, tranquility), but actually lead to mass-suicide or such? A doctrine that promotes the surpression of emotion? A religion that glorifies death or peaceful suicide?

But my idea is the influence should be very subtle; it is not some kind of mind-control or such. I imagine Lord and Lady Adam would be willingly follow Khardeem's teaching, without realizing it's a trap.


At some point they will realize Khardeem's intention (probably it will be the point where the Axis and the Allies start cooperating with each other). Then you can have fun. Probably you will behead Khardeem and exhibit his head at the city hall?

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

BEHOLD! THE MIGHTY DARTH KRESHNA!!




8-)

[Dartzap]

That looks like one hell of a fart, what curry were you eating the night before? :P

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

That looks like one hell of a fart, what curry were you eating the night before? :P

Ummm... I guess it was chicken curry. :P

[Dartzap]

mmmm chicken...

Troll farts are bit on the, ya know, heavy side?

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

Alright, a little bit announcement.


Ra is going to Dathomir, but Destructionator and Dartzap is heading there too.

I don't know about Desctructionator's forces, but Dartzap is going to land his new creations called "Slayer". There will be fifty of them *glares at Dartzap*, so Ra may want to beef up a bit. Probably a few AT-ST Walkers?

@Destructionator: the Dathomir is actually meant to be an "adventuring" scenario, where people will try to investigate the mystery (including why Kreshna massacred the witches). So please bring a reasonably-sized force (ie no power wanking!). Champions are preferred (like Captain Willis or one of those Destructionators).



Well Ra is outnumbered anyway. Frankly I have no idea how to balance the odds: would it be AT-ST Walkers, or Borg drones?

If they're going to be Borg drones, will Lord Walper land on Dathomir too? And if that's the case, would the duel arranged on the planet? I guess not too soon. I mean, if everyone agree that the duel would be accompanied with space battles in the background, then we should wait until the anti-song device is installed on Borg cubes.

And I guess Lord Walper is going to duel with Lord Adam instead of one of those Destructionators. Is Lord Adam going to be on Dathomir as well?


Also, when are they going to find Khardem? (the sinister agent of the Ancient Guardians) Is it going to be on Dathomir? And of course, Kardhem is going to join Lord Adam's factions, so maybe it would need some explanations why he won't join with the Trolls instead, for instance. Probably the Trolls already "sense" that this guy is dangerous? Probably the Trolls would to warn the A'millans? (but to no avail) Probably the Trolls and the Goa'uld would realize how dangerous this Ancients are, and starts talking for cooperation?


And like I said, the Empire will be more reclusive (Darth Kreshna's faction), aiming to destroy the entire solar system in their war against the Ancient Guardians (that's why people are going to prevent it). However, a group of renegade Imperials under Captain McKenzie sides with Ra.




Well, eventually it's up to you guys. I'm just laying the road signs. ;)


Happy TGODing! :D

Since everyone jumped the gun and never even gave me a chance to leave for Dathomir, I just won't bother, and keep focusing on other matters. Kinda hard to conduct a secret investigation like that...
