Alright. This is the OOC thread for the fall of the Risban Empire. It will be a spread out and rather long RP over various topics, all eventually leading to the complete collapse of the Grand Imperium into total civil war. Any nations that have embassies in the Grand Imperium will be affected, as well as any nations who are part of the Society of Shadows.
It is a completely open RP and a completely modern-tech RP.

I'll add more as things continue to grow. If you're interested, say so. I know that I haven't been around for a month or two, so there are new nations out there who Risban has no previous relationships with.
And, as I said, nations with embassies (click the foreign affairs link above) will sort of be dragged into at leasting posting once. Heh.

I'll have more up soon.

Oh f*ck yeah I'll sign up.

But first Andromeda and Jordan still have to marry, Rizzy.

BTW, Hamanistan wants to have a cold war with me. Perhaps this is a good chance to have a cold-war conflict between us.

Alright, GS. Noted.


Corruption of the Parliament (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=429450)
Nora Courtney, Empress, Removed as Chancellor! Lord Richard Gaius Zorag replaces her!
Sargas Caecus Lesath, head of the House of Aristocracy, is also removed from power and replaced by Lady Kierra Graffias.

I'll sign up

This is Upper Xen, just in another guise...

I'll join up. Upper Xen could try to evac some of its people from Risban, and send peacekeepers. But how do you want the RALM to get involved?

Added, Aust. I'll telegram you when there's anything you'd need to be aware of. Right now, just the topics in the first post are really big (primarily the main IC topic and the most recent Parliament one).

Eventually there'll be assasinations and skirmishes and evacuations and all that jazz. Heh.
Feel free to post in any of the non-closed topics. What do you say to our nations swapping embassies? Makes you more involved.
And, if you want, you can make up things for the Society of Shadows, but that's for a different thread. Heh.



At UX:
Alright. Added!
Well, I am guessing that RALM will come in on the side of the Society of Shadows, meaning they'll support whatever Lord Zorag does. So, yeah.

I'll make a list of all involved threads, Rizzy.

Kinda obvious. This ties the Green Sun royal family in with the Risbanian Royal Family, getting us a bit more personally involved.

Start of the corruption of the Risbanian government

Hey risban, i am willing to sign up for this, and i got a few questions that i'll telegram to you later.


OOc- see if any nations in the consortium wanna get involved.

Bump

Ill do this Risban, looks like a good RP

I'd have no problem joining in this, and would have no problem playing a major role in this.

BTW, do I have an embassy with you? If not, I think establishing one would be a good idea, IMO.

~ Romandeos.

Willink, HailandKill, and Romandeos added.


And yes, Romandeos, we exchanged embassies a few months ago I believe. ;)

Not much to do yet.

Risban, how about a bit of a dispute between Green Sun's government and Risban's parliment?

Aust-- I'm working on it! ;)


Green Sun-- Yes, yes. Zorag will make it so there are plenty of disputes between Risban and many others nations soon. I just need time. Heh.

Willink, HailandKill, and Romandeos added.


And yes, Romandeos, we exchanged embassies a few months ago I believe. ;)

I see. Thanks for the reminder. I shall have to develop the statistics for that. BTW, I shall be posting in the Gathering of Shadows thread soon. My apologies for the delay.

Risban, before I make my post, do you have MSN?

Alright everyone, I'm back!


Sorry for the disappearance. I've been working for the past week on a difficult project. But, it's done now and I've returned! Heh.


I am going to get things going here, starting with the assasinations of two high-ranking Risbanian citizens and some more chaos. w00t! Lol. Alright. I'll get started on this. I should have another topic up tonight.


We're still open to people wishing to join in!

I would like to play a part

I would like to play a part


Alrighty! You can decide how you want to weasel in after reading all of the threads (well, the necessary threads at least).

I think that this is too large of a plot for me to be able to handle right now in my NS career

I live!


Alright. Sorry folks. Most of you I talked to before disappearing about my impending disappearance.

Well, I'm back. I'm gonna get this civil war starting soon.

Alright. I'm back for real this time.

IMPORTANT: This week, the ACTUAL Fall of the Risban Empire WILL take place. Look for important deaths and the eruption of a full-fledged civil war.
Anyone with an embassy in or relations to Risban will be affected.

Please note that this is an open RP and anyone can participate.


If you wish to participate, read all of the IC posts in the main thread (Particularly posts 3 and 14). Also read "Corruption of the Imperial Parliament" and "Martial Law Declared" theads. This is for full understanding of what is about to happen. All links are in the first post of this topic.

Rizzy: Please note that Homer has been assasinated, along with two of his lackeys who are in the SoS. We still need to RP Earnest's attack.

And here we are!

The above link would be to the thread that currently includes the following:
1. Death of Emperor Scorpius
2. Death of Foreign Minister Perkins
3. Destruction of the Lictor Stronghold/Bunker/Temple thing.
4. Seizure of all embassies in Legato Forum.
5. Ascension of Lord Zorag to Interim Emperor of Risban.


AKA: The Climax of the story, folks.

Just a note, Imperial Armies isn't in a state of civil war. It's a bit different; it's war of succession, officially called the War of Golden Succession. The reasons is that it's not only a civil war, but it's a fight for the throne between different parties, both foreign and internal.
