The Hyperion Discussion Thread

Btw Harl I'm a Zabrak
Feel free to come in and save Raz and myself

now to go see what that wounded man is up to or be a loyal Paladin? I believe I would clutter the conversation if I joined you gentlemen

I wonder what Godjera wants to happen with the blooded hand scene? Also, don't take it personally that Skursir hasn't met Jylan PJK. Maybe Skursir can scare the date away for you?

I'm currntly thinking up a nasty NPC that can be used by anyone. He will be resonsible for the injury.

Wow that pregoressed quickly I'll have to cathc up

EDIT: Going to hunt Jylan out!

Any chance of TMF or Aleena noticing Keel any time in the near future? I'd like him on the EPOCH payroll by the start of PtS (lore-wise) and would quite like to RP that encounter please^^ Within PtS I'd prefer to know how that conversation went.

I'm still in conversation with Renia and I've left it in quite an awkard moment where I need a reply from her.

Yeah, I wrote myself out of that situation I remember. Ahhh, the pitfalls of RP and absent members... So that leaves Mr Dubz to tend to me, then (hint, hint^^).

...But not in the way that that sounded.

Hey, I wouldn't blame you! Miss Fel's not half bad for a near human.

Yeah, Fel... That's who I meant!...

hahahaha! I was thinking of getting back on with this, but with Pathway to Stone just around the corner, not sure that'll work :S

Well that night at the Hyperion is back in time from PtS starting isn't it? We can finish our conversation can't we?

Yeah, you're right - sod it! I've got Gideon to finish tonight and need to do the next post of DS so it would be nice to do some RP that doesn't result in epic-hugeness!

I'll post tonight then

Needn't be tonight, guv! But thanks in advance of whenever^^

Just a quick note to our newest Initiates / latest additions to the Hyperion, Varoll & Fray!

First of all, thanks for joining in the fun - you'll find everyone there good fun to natter with.

Waaaaaaaaay back on the first page you'll notice that there are two basic rules to the place:

The Hyperion wrote:

1. Civility is key. Violence will be met with deadly reprisal.
2. Political-free zone. Empire and Republic, Jedi and Sith. All are welcome and have rights of elyzium within the walls.

This roughly translates to "no weapons allowed". I just thought I'd mention this as I noticed Fray had a "hidden" blaster. No problems with this per se as on occasion others have smuggled stuff in but, because they've not drawn them, nobody has been the wiser.

All I'd say is be careful. The Security Staff here have been known to use lethal force is they think it necessary, so keep this one under your hat ^^

Apart from that, once again thanks for signing up and have fun!

And if I can add an addendum onto what Mr Dubz has said; a lot of us RPing in the Hyperion are currently deep in conversation with each other. Whilst it's pretty much what this social RP was designed for it does often lead to unavoidable one-on-one mini RPs which must run their course. Since there is a one character per RP rule for players, it means the Hyperion dictates it's own ebb and flow of situations and events.

So... My advice is don't sit and wait for the RP to come to you; make your own self-contained dramatic (less emphasis on the drama perhaps!) scene 'til someone becomes available to RP with. There's a wealth of NPCs described on the thread's front page to include in your post or you could drum up some of your own fellow customers to interact with.

Since we're a Med/Heavy RP guild and Initiates only get a month to show their suitability, I'd say the more innovation and imagination you can show within the scope of this freeform RP, the more you increase your chances of full membership!

Following up from Dubz's post, I'm actually interested in what qualities the EPOCH saw in Agents upon hiring them. I can guess that Jylan was a mechanic and pretty much required, Creed because he had ties with the Falleen, actually, I want to know how all our agents joined up, not just why. It doesn't even detail how Aleena at the Falleen's side and I'm hungry for knowledge! *Eats a Jawa to satisfy his hunger* Anyway, maybe something to document in a register or something?

Yea, I was aware of the No Violence rule, but I didn't interpret it as No weapons allowed. Lucky me that I choose not to wear y Sniper rifle then xD Fray's blaster will remain hidden and not used.

Also, I'm also interested in what Harlequin2 said; actually, I'm wondering what kind of story I should make up to why and how Fray joined the Agency. Was she scouted by Creed or what? If I'm allowed I'd like to use that story, but I feel like I should ask Sureshot first if I'm allowed to use his character that way. Especially since I actually was invited/scouted by SS from the SWTOR forums =D

Yeah the "how did we all sign up" is an interesting thought.... there is deliberately no info on how Aleena joined yet because Sureshot and I are still in discussion about that (but suffice to say he must have "beaten" her somehow...)

But for all the other Agents? Well there is a "storytelling" section for just such a use! I personally would have done that for my Alt, Gideon - if I hadn't already shown how he joined in Tales of The EPOCH.

With the Storytelling section though, the only thing I must stress is that if you mention/use other people's characters in your story make sure you are in close "PM" contact with them so that they can advise how their characters should act in your story.

I agree, the Storytelling section is exactly what this is for!^^ Although I personally like to do this through RP - but that can take a while! lol

In an aside - I'm so loving the flirting Keel's got going on in the Hyperion atm. I know it's probably very wrong, but I'm having way too fun with this!

....and this is why Aleena is the only female on PtS... Creed AND Keel? 'tis a dangerous time for the females...

Oh, and add Skursir into the mix, he doesn't like females higher than he is. Right now, he's in the "play along with her" game. On an unrelated topic, is there some way that Eamonn can meet up with Skursir? They are really near each other in the bar and I'd like to have an interaction between the two, even if it is a negetive one. After all, Skursir is supposedly the head honcho of out-of-guild relations so that could be a good reason for them meeting? I'm sure Jylan would also like to be introduced.

Absolutely no offense intended but he is? When did that happen? I have no problems whatsoever with Skursir going on an 'EPOCH Recruitment Drive' but I wasn't aware it was like a role of his or something...

Maybe I'm missing something?

Woops I forgot this was on going
I'll post something up Harl
