Free nation!

This nation, Udek, is no longer wanted by its owner. It has 712 million people, a Thriving economy, and few Civil Rights or Political Freedoms. It has no RP record.

It is free to the person who can give a good enough reason to want it.

I have a little more experience and I'm a good roleplayer. I could probally make a bunch of good roleplays basing on the nations type. :)

A: I don't have any nations that are even close to that size (my largest is 210).
B: I enjoy inventing cultures etc., so I would be able to figure out something interesting to do with it...

I would enjoy the country, but realizing how many people are going to post for it its hopeless. Oh well. Good luck in your decision though!

Well whatever the nation is based on. If it is a corrupt dictatorship, you can expect long dictating rp's which threaten foreign nations or such. If it's a New York Times Democracy, except diplomatic rp's and so on. :)

A Few Rich People - might give it to you.

Diminix - I don't really think that you would benefit from it all that much, but maybe.

Tobal - maybe

King Binks - maybe, but it's obviously hopeless.

Well ok but I was just assurin' you a good rp history of the nation. :-D
Tobal
17-12-2003, 00:36
Thanks for keeping me on the list!
I'd use it as a different country, not as support for one of my others.
Of course, I would include whatever elements you want when designing its culture.

I'll keep it as a barren place for the criminals of my own country.

Kinda like Australia and keep the Olympics in there in about 200 years.

Like this?


Walking with his held regally down the long corridor, flanked by the high Spaamanian guards, he felt the weight of a nation on his shoulders. Emperor Uthor of Udek had been called to an urgent meeting by President DeCáno, and as always, he was behoved to come. The long corridor eventually led to a pair of huge old oaken doors, which the guards opened, presenting one of the most luscious offices he had ever seen. Deep crimson carpet, rich hand-crafted mahogany desk, paintings so vivid with colour that he felt as though he could touch them and be transported to another world.

"You may stand outside."

The slightly graying, yet impressive man at standing at the desk, addressed the guards. They left and closed the door, leaving Uthor and President Fin DeCáno alone.

"Welcome, Uthor."
"Thankyou, Fin."

Fin waved his hand magnamiously in front of him to a chair in front of the desk, full leather, and sat on one just like it behind the desk.

"I will not keep you. I need to know if we have your support."
"Are you sure you want to do this? The Belmore Family have a lot of allies...."
"Which is why I need you. We cannot let them incite other nations against us any longer. We must show them that peace is the only way that one may deal with us, and there is no peace without war."
"It will cost us, and you. This is not a war that we can benefit from economically."
"I know, but we must strike now. Please. Brother."

The president's eyes were pleading, and Uthor's heart sunk.

"You know that I have no choice. Our mother bound us forever."
"Thankyou Uthor. Thankyou."

An RP sample... let's see...
I don't have much that's nation related, since none of my nations are big enough to have a major effect. (Though, actually, Tobal may be about to get involved in a war... we'll see)
Here's the first Character RP quote of mine I found:
Even after seven years in prison, Kerib still wasn't sure why he had been arrested. He only knew he was lucky no one had found out his true religion.... He had been following the rituals of his captors for many years now to prevent that discovery, but he had not given up faith. Fendar understood the necessity of such subterfuges. Difficult though it had been when under constant observation, Kerib had even maintained his training. He was a loyal Tobalite priest. He knew the Great Fendar would not allow him to remain a captive of these infidels forever; when the time came, he would be ready.
It's from the Iesus Christi Prison thread.
For a thorough look, check:
Dar-Kavryn
Kazar-Tiyon (the Return of Nez'gah thread)
Tir-Kedron (A Hunting We Will Go thread)
Marshahnk (not very important; I didn't have time to post much)
These are the ones I have used the most, so far.
I will try to find a good sample and post it.

Quote from the RP Kaliedoscope CO-RP

Vixtoh

Ignoring his quesiton she asks, "Who are you? Where am I?" spotting her claymore in the corner she makes a mental note. Before he could respond she speaks again.

"As to your question," she responds, "I am merely heading north to visit some ruin by order of the Sovereign. However, I now need a place to repair this hole in my plate, do you know of such a place?"

Leaning back slowly sipping her soup she waits for the old man's furowed brow to compile an answer.

Hammer

What the hell is this? Hammer thinks as he walks into the arena, the rusted doors slamming shut behind. He cautiously walks towards the small person on the other end.

"What the...! She's just a little girl!" he calls out but his voice is lost amongst the chanting multitudes.

Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!

"I can't shes defense less, shes crying for Reif's sake!" he calls out again, and this time, a voice responds.

"You have to Mr. Sorelin, this is your destiney, you must kill her." the voice he recognized as the woman whom had brought him to this hell hole from the street.

"Screw destiny! I won't kill a defenseless child!" Hammer calls back.

"Fine then Mr. Sorelin. Then I guess you both must die." and with that several nasty looking rifles appear in the crowd. "They came her for blood Mr. Sorelin, and they are going to have it one way or another."

Looking down at the small child, only ten at most, sobbing crying for her mother, begging him not to kill her he responds.

"I'm sorry, here," handing her his blade from his left hand. "Stand up and fight me. You must or we are both dead."

She grabs the blade, grasping the weapon that was obviosly to big for her hand and slowly climbs to her feet.

"I'm sorry, I really am," Hammer says one last time, tears running down his face.

The little girl looks upon him, upon the one whom was about to kill her and says in a voice that could not have been her own, "No your not Mr. Sorelin you just think you are." She brings back the blade and prepares to strike him in the gut.

Reacting faster than he thought possible he brings down the blade in a low fast arc, slitting her throat as he collases into a heap of sobbing on the baren earth, laying in a pool of this unnamed girls spilled virgin blood.

Hammer

Looking around the spartan quarters he finds a bed, a desk, a another door which contained a 3/4 bath, and a fridge filled with food stuffs.

I wonder how long they plan on keeping me here he thought. Shrugging off that thought he places the box on the desk and opens it, finding in side his weapons (two are wielded) and a small note,

"To win is to lose, to lose is to lose, victory lies within the lines."

What the hell, "to win is to lose" then what do I do *sigh* well the best thing would to get familair with these blades.

Reaching into the box he pulls out the pair of Delvun blades and begins to figure out the best way to hold them, to strike, all the essentails of utilizing any weapon. Looking into the box once again he found what seemed to be tight fitting leather gloves without finger holes. However, on the palm side of it there was a small metal protursion. He places the blades down and wears the gloves, noticing that the triangular side of the blades seemed to fit right in the protursion. He quickly found that these not only allowed for a better grip but by relasing the blade and pulling back his fingers he they could be allowed to spin, often times seeming to increase in speed.

Without a window or a clock his cell was timeless, eating when hungry, sleeping when tired, and the rest of the time training. An odd feeling of famiriarity eminated from this routine and the weapon it self. However, in less time than he thought Sorina returns once again openning the door to the room and saying only, "It is time Mr. Sorelin."

The venom began to work it self deeper and deeper into her system, making even her walking cumbersum and akward. I... must... reach the next... town she thought to her self. Trudging along slower and slower the night slowly gave way to day, only her will and training kept her feet moving along the dirt road.

Despite this her legs eventually buckled and she collapsed to the road in a heap, falling deeper and deepering into the hallucination of the vile venom and its fitful rest.

Very good AFRP!

I still maintain that I need the nation more though, as it would be absolutely invaluable in the upcoming war, as seen above. Plus I'm a tad more experienced, even though I only have this nation, and a sub 600m.

I have to admit I'm outmatched here.
Though I still say I need it more, since this is my biggest nation...

May I have a try at it?

I'm a great RP'er, very creative and clever. And I'm fairly smart in the matters of government affairs. Plus your nation sounds like a nice addition for me to use for my region. ^^ I could make such a neat little story out of taking it over too. If I didn't have such a case or writer's block. Oh well.

So, please, let this girl have a shot?

In that case, I think I'll give up, and voice support for you...

Celebration in the streets over the declaration of annex upon The Whatever of Udek, people have been quoted saying:

CEO Bob Bobbin: Finally, I whole new land to exploit and destory... I mean um... are you quoting this?

Private Citizen: YAH! Free beer! What? Huh? Were acutally doing something?

1st Division Private: Finally, my bolt rifle hasn't fired a live round since yesterday, and that was a missfire, maybe we can acutally do something. All praise Reif!

However the party was cut short as the Riot Suppression Units were sent in to "put those slackers back to work!"
