"Let the Lord of Chaos rule."
a fun, exciting, mysterious way to rack your brains.
Published on July 7, 2009 By Fokxnim In Sins of a Solar Empire

So I just had this idea and I want to share it with all of you, and invite you all to be a part of my little game I'm starting. I am someone in the Sins universe, either TEC, Advent, or Vasari, and you ask me any questions whatsoever to find out who I am, when I am, and where I am. Let me explain more.

By who I am I mean you have to be able to tell me what race I am, what age I am (30-40 year old male would be a perfectly acceptable answer if it was the right answer, which it isnt. the point is it doesnt have to be that specific.), and, as I just mentioned, my sex.

By when I am I mean you have to be able to tell me the general status of the war during my time. Before the war, before entrenchment, after the war, when the Advent arrive, all these are as specific as you have to be. I wouldn't get more detailed because I probably wouldn't be able to answer you.

By where I am, I mean something a little more tricky than the first two. You'll have to tell me if I'm on a planet belonging to my own race, if that planet is being sieged, whether I'm being held hostage on an enemy planet, whether I'm on an enemy planet because I betrayed my own side, etc etc etc. Where I am pretty much means my whole background.

For example (and this is NOT the answer): You;d have to tell me that I am Harris Markson, middle-aged, TEC male, who was captured by the Vasari and is being held on one of their great starbases. I am put through daily painful interrogation techniques, and am on the verge of telling the Vasari all of the intricate details of the TEC's new superweapon, which will be able to blow up a planet. (something along the lines of that)

Now, how to figure me out:

You can ask me any kind of question at all. You could even ask me what my name is and my age, although I would not answer you with what you're looking for. I will provide an answer for any question no matter how dumb or irrevelant it is. I could even have a guy who thinks he's being funny ask me how I jack off, and I'll try to provide a clue to my identity in it. But I'll still answer it. It is up to all of you together, the Sins community, to try and reveal my identity. This is not supposed to be easy. My advice, start off asking general questions and make your way deeper as my answers provide insight into my life.

Another disclaimer: I am not really talking about myself. None of this is true. I am not actually living in the Sins universe. I wanted to make that perfectly clear.

Now, ask your questions!

ALSO: all characters that are created in this Mind Game will be used in Sinners (if you haven't seen it, you should check it out on the SOASE forums), and all "mini-stories" (i.e. Judgement and the History of the Spirits so far) will be incorporated into the story as well. So ask a lot of questions!

[hahaha. well the Sinners perspective of this battle will be a lot more epic. and informative. when I write it it'll fit into the whole general plot (i think theres a plot in sinners, instead of like 18...) and make more sense. this was just from the perspective of one measly fighter pilot. but are there any more questions for my character? did we give up on the game? I win!]

Sir, how many enemy fighters have you shot down in your career?

 

[Oh, and I hope you don't mind, but I am using some Sinners referencing in the backstory of my mod (Fleet Diversification)...  I'm assuming you don't mind...]

[not at all! but if you could mention where you got the idea, that'd be awesome! publicity ]

Oh deary me, how many have I shot down? Oh my, that's a large number. I don't remember of course, we don't keep count, but I would say hundreds over the course of my military career. You can check for the exact number in my official records, of course. Look under Albert Frankensten.

[I'm going to guess that the time was during entrenchment?]

Sir, I would like to ask a few questions. You see, I am writing a book detailing the different experinces and thoughts of several people about the War.

What do you think abut the current situation? Does the Order stand a chance? Do you think that the Vasari/Advent advance shows any signs of slowing?

What do I think about the current situation? Son, there is no situation. No real one. Our time is over, we're all done for. The Vasari may beat us or maybe the Advent, but I doubt it'll be either. It'll be us that defeats us, we're throwing away all our morals in this war. If we can't stand above it all, who says our children will be able to? Do we stand a chance? Well, certainly we stand a chance. We've held our own in the war in the past few years, we're no longer on the edge of desperation we were when the Advent arrived, but certainly we're still in trouble. And do I think the Vasari/Advent advance shows signs of slowing? Son, where have you been? They have slowed, they've stopped, we've all stopped! Now, our earlier entrenchment ideas didn't work out too well, seeing as the Vasari and Advent soon followed and even surpassed our examples, we all know that. And our peace talks certainly failed, I don't need to recap Judgement, now do I, but as to say what's next, who knows? The only sure thing in war is that nothing is certain. Who knows what the next day will bring? I certainly don't.

[The time is during the third expansion?]

[close, but no cigar. very close, though.]

on Jul 17, 2009

have we decided we can't beat the game? did we all give up?

on Jul 17, 2009

[Been watching this for a while, but I might as well join in. I'm gonna say after the third expansion, when the war is finally coming to a close.]

Hello, Mr. Frankensten.

Could you tell me about the last major battle in the news? I would very much appreciate it.

[nope. little farther away than the last guess. ur closing in on it though.]

 

The last major battle in the news? Let me see let me see....oh, it must have been The Battle of Serpentine Hill! That's the secret base of the Marksmen you know, or at least, it was a secret. Hidden in an asteroid field it was. Woo boy that was a biggie. Marksmen and Vasari armor-clads battling it out throughout the asteroid field. They went hand-to-hand, don't ya know, the Marksmen don't have ships, no sir, not war ships, and for some reason the Vasari didn't just blow up the asteroid field, they landed their ships and got right in among the rocks with them. A strange, strange battle. Actually, I think it is still going on.....

{i like this im guessing this is set, in entrenchment, just before the third expansion}

Sir, perhaps you can tell me, was Admiral Kol, with the Marksmen at the time? i seem to remeber him being a marksman
