REPORT FROM ROB VICKERS OF ANN (Aquarian News Network), OUTSIDE IMPERIAL HOSPITAL

Earlier today at 5:01 PM, Empress Anna Vorbett's water broke! She has succesfully given birth to the couple's first little boy of 4 older sisters. Emperorite (term for first born son of Emperor) Adrian Vorbett II of Nova Aquaria was born just minutes ago in the Imperial Hospital of New York City, a few weeks early. He weighs in at 6 pounds 4 ounces. A royal ball will soon be held in celebration. More news later, along with a picture.

This is Rob Vickers of ANN, signing off.

CONTINUED REPORT
Welcome back, above you can see the first picture of the young Emperorite.

OOC: you up for a little RP with this? TG me for any questions

Grand Invitation to the Royal Ball
In celebration of the birth of our first son, we will hold a royal ball on November 28th, from 6 to 12 PM at the Imperial Palace of New York. All national leaders and their spouses are invited. Please RSVP!
--The Imperial Family

OOC: Can a terrorist from my country capture the baby at the ball and hold it for ransom? Could create interesting political waves...

He could give a feeble attempt.. He'd have a hard time getting into a ball though. Everyone (even the royals) get checked. Anyone's leaders going to come?

i say no as iam FT nation and two of the Imperial family are kids to a god and goddess and there son happens to 250m tall

We welcome this good news, our Foreign Relations Minister Sir Victor Winsford and his wife Victoria will be attending the ball. We bring the gift of a Clandonian Rock Ape as a pet for the new born.

OOC: Terrorists sound fun, if my Minister is so shocked we might try and invade someone.

He could give a feeble attempt.. He'd have a hard time getting into a ball though. Everyone (even the royals) get checked. Anyone's leaders going to come?

I take that as a disapointing no? C'mon, it would be fun. My Foreign Minister Kate Sharle will be attending.

What if he (the terroist) was aquianted with one of the guards?

Hmm, maybe he could take someone else hostage, i.e. some King of a big nation, small fries like me don't have much ransom money. (Jr. Emperor won't be there). If lots of leaders are there it could be interesting.

IC:
We hope to see you there, Sir Victor.



OOC: How long untill I can have my little arranged marriage thread? (I want to arrange it when the baby is 12-14)

Official Corporate letter:

Its a plan.

When's the ball happening then?

Tuesday. I'll let you have your terrorist RP as long as I'm assured that none of my royals come under harm.

Emperor James Johanes IV, age 17, will be attending.

Emperor James Johanes IV, age 17, will be attending.

OOC: By the way, how many Emperors and Empresses does your nation have?

OOC: 1. I think.. Our system is like the US, but the presidnecy is a hereditary position taken through the throne. I can't remember the royal's names:headbang: . The other just died.

SIC:

"Lace it with Polonium 210."

"But...sir...that'll kill the baby..."

"Do I fucking care? The only way to social equality is to eliminate all rulers to create a collective society where there are no rulers! If we oust the child, then this poor nation of whateverthefuckitscalled will have no ruler, perfecting communism. Go on, lace it with the damn polonium!"

"Yes...sir..." The poor worker went to a different room, taking some toys and rolling them around with the toxic isotope, Polonium 210. A toy bear was covered in it, a rattle, and a few other things that a baby would obviously put in his mouth.

IC:

To: The Emperor and Empress of Nova Aquaria

Please accept this bundle of toys for the new child. We hope it leads a happy life and will one day rule the nation!

~Premier Mikhail Cohen, Supreme Ruler of the Cohenias

OOC: Jaredcohenia: damn, you're evil.

OOC: Jaredcohenia: damn, you're evil.

OOC: No, my latest Premier is a staunch communist and will stop at nothing to make communism happen. He'll be killed off soon. Maybe. Not really.

OOC: No, my latest Premier is a staunch communist and will stop at nothing to make communism happen. He'll be killed off soon. Maybe. Not really.

OOC: Oh...that's still sort of evil though...

OOC: Oh no you di-id't!!! I'll find a way to wiggle out though...


We recieved your charity in the mail, but after we tested it (we are afraid we must test all packages after the terrorist attack on our capitol in 01') we found deadly substances laced in the bear and rattle. We will assist you in finding the terrorists who did this horrid act.

--Emperor Adrian Vorbett I of Nova Aquaria

OOC: "it" has a name, you know. Anyway, why does everyone want to kill Jr.? I've grown so fond of him..

Taken from the Pedia of Wikis:

Polonium is a highly radioactive and toxic element and is very difficult to handle. Even in milligram or microgram amounts, handling polonium-210 is extremely dangerous, requiring specialized equipment and strict handling procedures. Alpha particles emitted by polonium material are absorbed by the body and will damage organic tissue easily if ingested or absorbed (though they do not penetrate the epidermis and hence are not hazardous if the polonium is outside the body).

A lethal dose of 10 sieverts, or about 525 microcuries, weighs just 12 millionths of a gram. A cube of pure polonium 210 about the size of the period at the end of this sentence—only 0.35 mm wide and weighing just 400 micrograms—would still be 3,370 times the lethal dose. (Calculations based on a committed effective dose equivalent (CEDE) of 5.14×10−7 sieverts per becquerel (1.9×103 mrem/microcurie) for ingested 210Po and a specific activity of 1.66×1014 Bq/gram (4.49×103 curies/gram)[4].)

The maximum allowable body burden for ingested polonium is only 1,100 becquerels (0.03 microcurie), which is equivalent to a particle weighing only 6.8 × 10-12 gram. Weight for weight, polonium is approximately 2.5 × 1011 (250 billions) times as toxic as hydrogen cyanide. The maximum permissible concentration for airborne soluble polonium compounds is about 7,500 Bq/m3 (2 × 10-11 µCi/cm3). The biological halflife of Polonium in humans is 30 to 50 days.[5]

So even if you did test the toys, your dudes would be suffering from polonium poisoning. See: That Dude who just died from the Russians poisoning him (Levitneko?)

Fine..

ic:

Thank you for your gift.

(OOC: Really written by secratary)

Later in the Emperor's office, a guard came on the security TV (he is outside, a camera is outside the palace, feed from camera goes into TV) with several toys in secure containers, to ensure no radiation would seep through. "Package, my lord. From Jaredcohenia."

"Do those damn commies think we don't have any toys? Yeah, I'll let my first born son play with a rattle from Walmart. I want it burned, now. And this place sweeped for radiation."

"Yes sir, right away sir!"

And so the crappy toys were burned, never coming into contact with any royal family members.

Fine..

OOC: So what you're saying is, all the toys that were perfectly wrapped in a cardboard box were taken out of the boxes by guys in full hazmat suits and then tested because all incoming objects into your nation are tested for radiation and the people that came in contact with it never suffered a single hint of poison?

Hmm..

No, all the Imperial family's packages are checked. Besides, they were thrown away none the less. The guard wore no hazmat. He would soon die. Go easy, this is my first 'real' RP.

OOC: Wow...

OOC: Wow...

OOC: I know, rite?

OOC: Half of being a good RPer is accepting defeat at times. Like now!

OOC: And the other half is not being an ass to the newbies... :rolleyes:

British Londinium, you're right. Jaredcohenia needs to admit his faulty terrorist attack didn't work, as my RP was perfectly fine. It's rather hard to poison a proud Emperor's son.

OOC:

Explain how it's faulty.

Step One: Lace toys with radioactive isotope, isotope is toxic and can carry airborne.
Step Two: ??????????
Step Three: Profit!

OOC: I can see at your persistance to snub out the communist terroist's attack that you want this all to go to plan , but bare in mind it can be more interesting if you take some blows at times too...

My terroists won't be so blatent, but when the ball starts please leave them to their mischief making for awhile. (Then I promise you can catch them if you want) It'll make everything a little more fun.

And Jaredcohenia- stealing my idea ;)

Either way, you could have been a little more subtle? C'mon killing the baby before the ball! No fun :$

OOC: Well, how was I supposed to know that the package wouldn't be opened at the ball? Everyone knows that the presents are to be opened during the party. :cool:

Hmm... Look, the toys got to the palace gates, where a guard called up the Emperor on a broadcast system. He showed him the package and he ordered it thrown out. The man never ingested anything from "the perfectly sealed box", so he may be fine. There. Also, if I allow this attack at the ball, I want assurance that my royals won't come to *much* harm (Death, Disability, Rape, etc.).

1. Why did the guard call the emperor?
2: Why did the Emperor order it to be thrown out?
3: Did I state it was perfectly sealed? If so, this question is null and void.
4: That's no fun.

They won't...

1. Federal Law, no package is allowed within palace without supervision
2: He doesn't want cheap toys from commies
3: Think so.
4: Wait for the ball. You can't have Jr. though.

1. Okay then. Supervision would assume that they would open it.
2. I never stated ICly that I was a commie in this entire topic. SICly, I did. ICly, nope.
3. Nope. Did so OOCly >_>
4. The only reason I'm in this topic is to kill Jr. If I can't kill Jr., who can I kill? :(

The Glorious Shogun and his family wish to send their warmest welcomes to the young emporer as he enters our world. We present to you a gift of Tradition Tilean birth robes as well as a selection of finely crafted Tilean toys, although we are aware that your son will have been presented with a great many toys we request you take these under special advisement as they are crafted from the finest woods and metals and are designed to help stimulate a babies natural curiosity to learn as well as aiding in their growth.

As a further sign of friendship from the Shogun we would request that the Shoguns son and his wife be allowed to attend the ball celebrating your sons birth, they will be accompanied by a team of Royal Guards, elite men who are highly trained martial artists, we will of course not be carrying firearms, but the Shoguns divine sone will be armed with a traditional dress sword.

We joyfully await your reply.

this 1234 thing is hilarios, I keep on having to read back to see what you're replying to.

As for the ball; lets not have any deaths. Just a little hostage situation maybe. It doesn't even have to be members of your or any royal family's...

OOC: Jaredcohenia: Governors of states play a big role in my system. I'd let you kill one of them. Here's a couple to choose from:

Mason Cafy, Governor of Rhode Island
Andrea Normana, Governor of Carolina

IC:

Shogun of the Tilean Free States, we would be honored for your Imperial Shogun's son to attend. Guards are fine with us, as long as they are only armed with stunguns and there is a limit to ten, though hundreds of guards await outside and even more indoors. We will alert our admittance commitee to allow your son to bring in a sword. Hope to see you there!

--The Imperial Family

IC to the world:
If you wish to present the Emperorite with a gift, we are afriad it must pass through a basic check. Hope to see you there!

The Emperor ordered the toys to be thoroughly checked, and if they passes his son would play with them.

We will of course submit to the usual security checks. The Shoguns Divine son will be armed with the sword, but it is purely ceremonial, although the Divine Heir has full sword training the ceremonial sword is dull and not a lethal weapon unless considerable (beyond the capabilities of the strongest human) force is applied, therefore it should present no problem.

The Divine Heirs entourage will include 5 Personal bodyguards as well as his personal attendant, the Divine Heirs wife and a Shogunate Official to convey official diplomatic greetings.

There is also a Tilean tradition where the lead male of the Tilean party will swear that he will guard the new born child with his life, this ceremony is no longer binding and is largely a ceremonial affair, it will be conducted in the Traditional Tilean language and will only take a few minutes. If you do not wish this ceremony to take place you have but to ask and the Divine Heir will be informed that it is innapropriate.

Queen Emily Jove is delighted at this news, and will be attending with her father, King Remy Jove; her sister, Princess Paige Jove, and her paternal grandmother, Royal Grandmother Samantha Jove.

They do, of course, recognize that they are subject to any security checks and consent to being searched.

Small Cellar, down a dingy side street in Karltin (Duckquackmuse's 2nd city):

"Clear the table!" A middle aged man with made stubble and a rough face said. Immediatly various pieces of plastic, screwdrivers and wires were sweeped of the table. "Right lads, here you go." The man put down an undetailed but accurate sketch of The Emporer's palace. There were smudges over parts of the map but it was readable.

"What's our way in?" said a youngish-looking man, of about 25. He wasn't the leader of the group but the other's respected him as he could always ask the questions the others were too scared to ask.

"Good question," said the older man, Gary. "Through here, it's small but relatively unguarded, and the only man who does guard it...well we have a way to get him distracted." The group trusted Gary completly and nodded. "Right, who else is going in with Charles?"

Charles was a man in his 30's. Experianced, and agile. They nicknamed him "The Breaker", because he always "broke the ice" i.e got inside the building and made entry possible for other members of the gang. He was wanted by the police, but they had nothing on him, and he was closely watched. He hadn't turned up for the meeting and was at home having a normal family meal.

"Charlie's coming?" the man of 25 said.
"Yeh, he's in. You got a problem with that Luke?"
"No. I'm in. I know how these palaces work" Luke smiled Yes another break with Charlie, like the early days.
"We got a plan fellas. I've organised transport for the day. The rest of ya I'll brief you later"

We will of course submit to the usual security checks. The Shoguns Divine son will be armed with the sword, but it is purely ceremonial, although the Divine Heir has full sword training the ceremonial sword is dull and not a lethal weapon unless considerable (beyond the capabilities of the strongest human) force is applied, therefore it should present no problem.

If you do not wish this ceremony to take place you have but to ask and the Divine Heir will be informed that it is innapropriate.


We will gladly let you perform the ceremony. We will try to have the newborn there for this part.
