"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!

As Cork2 asked. I too would like to know about your interactions with Kol.

On another note, Esquian to be more specific. How long has it been since his heroic efforts to close the wormhole? In the time since the event has the Vasari empire figured out how he closed the wormhole? If so, How did he close it?

Tell me about this human kol and your battles with him. Also before you say no, think about how much you like your current position or if you ever want another promotion. I sure do wonder how your superiors would react if your previous conversations were to fall into their hands all of a sudden. You know about laying traps to get promotions....


Hisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss...........................................................you would blackmail me? ME!!!!!!!!!!...............hhhhhhissssssssssssssssssssssssss.....................however.........you have me for now.........just remember......PORKY...................you do not want to make me an enemy..................................you've made a bad, bad mistake.........

there is not much to tell about me and Kol. During the conquest of what would have been my sixth planet, we boarded Kol's ship and killed the crew, except for him. We took him with us, the planet was lossst, and we brought him back to Anteros, the planet belonging to the Mani'k, planning on integrating him into the Vasari and making him one of the Mani'k according to the codes of the Prophecies of Reunion. We had even implanted the alponians into him, when he was snatched away from us. Someone helped him essscape, and I will find out who, but it is only a matter of time before Kol becomes Vasari.....we never removed the alponians, and he will not have the knowledge to remove them without killing himself.....he will become Vasari....and we are waiting for that moment to snatch him again....

Esssquian? Let me think.......he was 1st branch's leader at the beginning of our engagement here.......hisssss.........that would be.........around five years ago? Perhaps less. Time sssslipsss by us here.......and no, we have returned to the sight of where the kazmando once was, but it is gone now. Now there is only a plasma storm, and no kazmando. we do not know how he closed it, and the Spirits are being very tightmouthed over the sssituation.....

on Jul 29, 2009

Five years ago you say... Then let me ask you about an event approximately 3 years ago. Was it you that Fleet Admiral Commander Flankx summoned to deal with Kol after hearing tales of Kol single-handedly taking control of the Platinum? or is it a commander of yours that was summoned?

 

[Approx. 5 years post Esquian puts the time frame as approx. 5 years prior to the main game.]

[wrong about the time approximation, all characters are from after the game starts. but some could be from before as well....]

Yess.....how did you know that? Right after the fact that the human Kol had overtaken the Platinum, Flankx went personally to the planet of the Mani'k and asked for my assisstance......note the ASK there..........even my superiors step lightly around me.........remember that PORKY.........when you're least expecting it.....I will hunt you down. Mercislessly. I swear it by the honor of the forefathers and the Spirits. Mark. My. Words.

[ok so let me clear that top part up. we know that all of my characters are at a point during the game, but this character was (will be, that'll be chapter 10,1) in Sinners before the "time" that SOASE starts, so you will be able to find his name in my story.........or at least what the Vasari call him, as my character said his name is not mentioned often. hint, hint]

[plus, 5 years ago is an approximation. for the character and for me. i don't know how much i'll put in before my character snatches Kol, so don't be rough if 5 years is way off. my character might have forgotten the exact time.]

*edit* The forum doesn't seem to like me using partial quotes.

I am a chronicler of history. I seek to maintain historical accuracy no matter who the victor is. I talk with many people about many things. One of these people was a Vasari who mentioned the Platinum, its unfortunate downfall, and you being asked to deal with Kol. So there is no need to hunt me down. I simply record facts and update the facts to maintain the truth as I find new information.

Would you be so kind as to inform me as to what battles you were involved in? Did you lead any of these battles?

What do you know of the rumors of the Orbital Weapons or Orbital Stations that the three races in this war are building?

[I understand that your Sinners history is a work in progress. So I won't be rough if the 5 years is way off. Besides these questions that people are asking you are a way to help you flesh out some of the characters and history for your Sinners timeline.]

[Just to make sure we are on the same page... the orbital stations would be the starbases. Not knowing of them would mean pre-entrenchment times. And you've already said that is after the main game starts.]

 

I've only heard rumors of the orbital stations. They are supposed to be massive defense platforms of some sort. I know little more than that. You are sure that you've not heard anything about them?

 

If you would please, tell us [Where did everyone else disappear to anyway?] about your favorite conquest.

 

[On a side note you might consider adding the link to the main story into the main post.]

[idn where everyone went, that is a good question. yes, i know the orbital stations were starbases, my character did not....make of that what you will. also, before entrenchment and after the main game starts leaves a pretty wide gap.....and yes, ha, i added a link. good thought.]

I am ssuree..........hmmm........that is quite interesting.........i will talk of this with Flankx....if anyone knows of thiss it would be him.........child, you MUST be foolish......there is never any battle that becomes your favorite.....that is pure idiocy....however, if by conquest you mean terran captured and slated to become Vassari.......well then....that would most certainly be the terran that was called Jason Cartoon......I believe he was known as the Prime Chancellor of the filthy TEC......

on Jul 31, 2009

A fool... no. But some have called me insane.

You have mentioned turning terrans into Vasari a couple of times now. Would you be so kind as to explain how the process works? In the case of Kol, you mentioned alponians. I have to assume that these are involved in the process.

Would you also describe the capture of Jason Cartoon? The TEC records I have access to leave some disturbing gaps.

[I need to think of questions to narrow down the time frame. We have the who, now we need the when. In the mean time I can ask questions to help develop the background.]

{i know its a sinners ref, but i cant find any mention of a wormhole...}

so you are the one who.. turned the very leader of the terran filth into one of us! can you tell me how you got hold of him.. it must have been a great conquest

[i hav a rule, only one mini-story per character! im not gonna break it. if u want a long thing, you have to figure out this character and move on to the next one.]

It was no great conquest in the battle itself....iv already told you that........only the fact of who the terran was made it a great conquest.....during battle we boarded a ship and captured the Prime Chancellor in the command center of the terran ship......the other terrans spoke his title and gave him away.....that is all that it was...of course, we lost that battle, as my capital ship left with the Prime Chancellor....but we won a greater prize....unfortunately, Cartoonis Destruxim has not the skillsss to make him Mani'k, so he has been passed away to a minor role on a small frigate ship. But the morale loss of the terransss....it was worth the entire act just to see their faces after we revealed that we had him.....
