• Nobles of Null is a forum based roleplay site where sci-fi and magic collide. Here, Earth remains fractured and divided despite humanity reaching out to the stars. Worse still, the trans-human slaves of one major power have escaped, only to establish their own Empire, seething with resentment at abuses of the past. Even the discovery of aliens, though medieval in development, has failed to rally these squabbling children of Earth together with its far darker implications. Worse still, is the discovery of the impossible - magic. Practiced by the alien locals, nearly depleted and therefore rare, its reality warping abilities remains abstract and distant to the general populace. All the while, unseen in the darkness of space, forces from without threaten to press in. For those with eyes opened by insight, it is clear that an era is about to end, and that a new age will dawn.

    The door creaked then crackled, hinges scraping against the pressure of Jurgen's cybernetic arm. Swingin open, the squad swept into the reception area, barrels pointed and dilligently searching for the slightest signs of movement. Even with the personnel tracker on his HUD, Jurgen nonetheless...

    So just one seed-vrexul world with a bunch of differing locations so far then right?

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    I'm not on my laptop right now but I agree. I wasn't sure the exact scope we were allowed initially but I do not mind cutting out a lot of the history to better accommodate the setting. Wrt to the homeworld system (and the seed-vrexul one) how many worlds would that contain typically?

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    Cont. The fleet itself had landed in a fairly isolated part of space but it had not been sent in blind and unprepared. The Jedgnozilik were well aware they would lose the first major engagements but that's why their offspring were the backup plan. As the conflict raged on and the Jedgnozilik...

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    History The vrexul did not begin as a single species but a variety of them on worlds near the edges of known space, around 250 light years away from Earth. On the planet of Spojekralovstvi (Spoy-eh-kra-lov-stee), a world rife with swampy jungles, moss-covered plains, and craggy wastelands...

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    That can be done. I didn't want to make them feel (too) human as I don't like "rubber forehead" type aliens - that means they have to differ in terms of how they behave as well. I suppose if they interact with more human species some of them might become less cryptic as people.

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    Yes, faction dependent but there's definitely sure to be variation within them.

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    Player choice? Like if players can choose to play as them? If so, yeah. I suppose you can play as antagonist-vrexul if you want. I don't think seed/decentralization vrexul will always be friendly given they are somewhat skeptical of humanity but not to the extent of trying to outright attack them.
  16. ParoxysmalBirth

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    Well, some of them are - the expansionist Vrexul are definitely intended to be more aggressive. Decentralization and seed-vrexul, not so much - skeptical of but not really hostile to humanity.

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    I wanted them be a genuinely alien, unusual, and strange species to encounter in a first contact kind of scenario. A species who presence makes humanity realize that there are stranger forces lurking out there but that aren't necessarily hostile even if they have a lot of baggage of their own...

    That's a good call. It's late right now and truthfully I'm generally bad with numbers so I might need some help with that. I will likely be more free on Friday for this.

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    That is most likely yes, though the Seed/Decentralization vrexul are roughly aligned for now so if one encounters humanity, the others will find out fairly quickly. I'd say they probably have a lot of patrol vessels but also just research and exploration ships too. Colony vessels yeah, some...

    Species Application - The Vrexul

    I wouldn't say the vrexul are overall more advanced than humanity except in certain fields. In others they might match them mostly due to them coming to similar conclusions from different angles. They are probably ahead of the curve in regards to augmentation technology and biotechnology (given...
