Hold on, yo... the outline is being rewritten with more details... You wanna be some messiah figure, that's fine. The one that I had in mind was of the Azguardian race tho.
And I was thinking for of a fanatical persona so perhaps your Jedi Character might not be the best fit.
But you are welcome to create another character and play them temporarily for this rp if you like.
edit: Well I planned for Ganner to loose his mind anyways, and I haven't decided much on this character except that he will learn some parts of the Force; and of course go nuts. Like I said this could be the reason for his insanity, and whos to say he's not Azguardian? All I would need is a few details on the species. And since I really don't want to kill this character so early, perhaps once defeated he is put on trial and imprisoned.
I'm a little overprotective of my intellectual property with regards to Azguards. I'd kind of rather if you wouldn't play one, since I'd like to try and keep all of them 'under my watch' so to speak.
Not to say that you couldn't, or that a person couldn't use Azguards as PCs or NPCs so long as they explained it reasonably, just that I'd rather if none-Coalitioners didn't, is all.
Well if I were to play a mad messiah, why would I be conected to the GC would they not try to stop me? If you wanted I could start as if I were connected to the Coalition and I can (now) start writing in affiliation with the GC. I am very intersted to know about the Azguards and would like to play this character(if of course you would like).
I would be the machina overmind correct? As such these Dracconis are the previously mentioned Phage/Forced Evolution Daemuns that travel in time to ensure the power of the race against 'the flesh' aka non Daemun life, more like a small rebel niche in the face of a more... regular Daemun peoples that still exist as normal?
The Daemun machines are motivated by the Cree'ar how exactly? As in led to do things beyond that which they are directed, or that the overmind (me) commands them as such through contact with the Cree'ar?
The Draconnis are a subfaction resulting in the mutation of Phage towards the technological. They are a recognized subgroup within the Imperium 400 years from now and yes, in the Of Endings rp's taking a time device from Cree-Ar technology and going back to change their fortune.
Now, the Draconnis mentioned in the Fall of Kaine (which takes place a decade from now), are basically the beginning origins of that group. Not so much physical differences as in the Of Endings but perhaps Phage is weakening the machina strictures put on their core intelligences. Perhaps they begin thinking outside the machine box.
It was not my intention to link Of Endings with the Fall of Kaine so much as to perhaps show how the particular BDE group gets it's beginnings.
I would think that the Taj is above the overmind but it is the overmind that oversees the day to day operations in carrying out of the Taj's wishes. Since Daemun never die but get recycled in some repository, perhaps the elder leaders under the Taj who have "made the glorious crossing" or whatever make up the Overmind or perhaps it's a machine.
I hadn't really thought that far ahead.
There is or has already been dialogue between Cree'Ar and BDE as you have both traded ships. So the Cree'Ar (I was thinking) would exploit this contact and maneuver BDE people by means of suggestion or tampering with the thoughts of those Dracconis thinking outside the box.
Chaning priorities for the glory of the Taj and Daemun people, etc...etc..
I hadn't really gotten that far ahead as Ahnk would also be a valuable source of input.
But as I said, this was when I thought your group was pretty much dead/inactive so I wanted to tell a story using it. But now that you're back, I probably shouldn't touch it as you may wish to go in a different direction with BDE.
So, the story will be rewritten, I think, to accomodate this.
Yes, I would be far above 'overmind' status, but I never know as to what your refering to when you mention my technology, lol. The Intelligence Web as a whole would act more as a race Overmind than anything else. The knowledge, the thoughts and the mysteri of the entire race passing through it, proccessed and interpreted by it. If any single 'entity' were to be considered an Overmind of any type, that would be it, even though its more of nonphysical false existance (Like a living cyberspace) with no control of anything in and of itself.
A step above that would be the Taj, which would be like a self aware version of what was just stated above.
So the Cree'Ar would be influencing the already out of it Draconnis then? Not the ones still in Direct control of the Taj, but the independantly operating ones?
Cree'Ar - Correct. They would not control the Taj or influence the Taj as Daemun society is based around the will of the Taj and the rest of the Imperium under the pattern set by the Daemun.
The Cree Ar intervention would be subtle in that the Taj has a will. But where everything falls short with the Daemun (and how they fracture) is that there are different ideas as to how to accomplish that will.
Between the Taj presenting a will to the Overmind and having it relayed to the Daemun, the problem becomes one of interpretation.
Something like this: God wants a world of peace. Some followers feel to carry this out is to destroy the heathens. Other followers may feel that to carry this out is to convert the heathens.
Something like that.
Even the Dracconis serve the Taj but they feel that the strictures of their machina personality that have been "widened" allows them to see ways in which to carry out the Taj's wishes that the normal Daemun can't.
And it will take centuries before their expanding freedom of thought suddenly begins to question the Taj and the validity of his/its claim as leader of the Daemun and the Imperium.
