You?
I don't mean to be an ass but the Amarr do not have a Queen and Jamyl Sarum I, Almight God bless her name, is the first empress the Amarr have ever had to my knowledge.

Arkena Wyrnspire wrote:Heth invaded. It changed everything.
I'd lead a life of peace, believing there to be no need for me to follow my military family in their footsteps. With Foiritan on the brink of giving the most generous trade deal ever made in New Eden to the Caldari, I didn't believe war at all likely, and I believed the Federation defences up to the task of defending our empire.
When Caldari warships came and started burning my home, I knew I had to do something. Having lead a life as a research biologist, I knew my world well from the many field observation trips I'd made. My assistance was asked for by a group of Federal Marines assigned to Vivanier, and I found that having taken such a role on and succeeded I felt the need to do more for the cause.
A research scientist already has most of the technical qualifications required to become an immortal, and I had connections in the FDU - my brother had served for years as a Luminaire General, and my parents were both military. I got fast-tracked through the immortal soldier program, and I was one of the first boots on the ground.
I knew I'd made the right choice when I watched the hated titan be burnt out of the Luminaire skies and saw the smiling faces of the people I'd saved from the Caldari.
"Capitalism. Democracy. Faith. Freedom. Long ago, the four Empires lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Caldari State attacked. Only the President, master of all four voting blocs, could stop them, but when the Federation needed him most, he vanished. A couple of days passed and my brother and I discovered the new President, a President named Roden. And although his Bullshitting skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone. But I believe Roden can save Caldari Prime."

I'd like to take the time to point out that a certain "non-gallentean" Admiral choosing not to ((follow orders and...)) detonate their vessel after it was carelessly shot down certainly contributed to significantly less planetside destruction and significantly reduced civilian casualties.

Also, let's not even pretend the Amarr would stand for it if the Minmatar put a titan in orbit over the Amarr homeworld and threatened to glass it.
We both know they wouldn't threaten to.

If they did, you would not let it stand. Neither did we. Will you truly be so hypocritical as to call us out on a situation in which you would have acted exactly the same?
No I won't merely reminding you of a situation your were ignoring. Roden had his people take down a titan. That Caldari Admiral saved a large part of Caldari Prime.

Arkena Wyrnspire wrote:Sure. Decent thing to do.
Hardly representative of the leadership as a whole though, considering they executed her for it. And of course there was the not-particularly-small matter that they were there in the first place. I'm not particularly inclined to call someone a lifesaver when they hold a gun to someone's head and choose not to fire.
However its for exactly that reason the Admiral should be remembered for her actions. Everything pointed to one course of action in arguably what should have been a simple decision.
Do it for your people.
Do it to hurt your enemy.
Do it because the State is telling you to.
And yet this individual rose above all of that and chose to do what they believed was right, which in turn prevented the deaths of many thousands or millions of people. You are right she is not a lifesaver but here actions were just and in a cluster where very little light exists and is often over shadowed by evil her legacy will remain.

This is a very interesting question that is currently being discussed amongst the membership of the Praetoria and it centres very much so around the concept of whether we are or are not fundamentally the original people we are the clones of.
Regardless I was raised the scion of a destitute imperial noble family whose ties to nobility were tenuously at best and who after many years of tragedy had raised themselves from the lowest dregs of the Tash-Murkon courts to garner a modicum of respectability.
My father despised my mother with little disguised hatred and sired me only because it would serve him on a political level and also left him with options for the future where he planned to marry me off and join households with his allies. I was primarily raised by my mother on a Vinyard in Marthia far from the eyes of the courts where my father spent the earliest years of my life scheming and politically grandstanding in morally objectionable ways barely paying any attention to his son or wife.
When I did come of age the bastard pulled back from his career at court and spent months trying to cultivate me in preparation for acceptance that the Hedion University, which I did not attend due to over application by those of more noble birth, and instead spent my early adult years at the Imperial Academy in system graduating with various diploma's primarily in cultural/theological studies as well as modern history and politics.
After my Graduation I was to meet my fiance, with whom I spent a very breif but pleasant time until my mother died, waiting for care in a poorly funded hospital. My decision to joint the Tash Murkon armed forces ended my betrothal much to my disappointment, and I spent many years being turned from spoiled child into a soldier.
My Crucible came when on a standard operation where my regiment of Surveyors and Sappers encroached to deeply into a Tribal Command held district and we were set upon by a large contingent of Matari aggressors. Our unit spent five days dug in a single bombed out remnant of a cargo hub, unable to move as the fighting continued around us. Eventually thinking us all dead the Matari pulled back and we were recovered without incident...... as one of two sole functional soldiers of the combat I was offered the opportunity to fight as a Templar Soldier in a new generation of clones which would be undergoing extended psychological conditioning and evaluation, for which we trained many months.
I was then dispatched to a forward command post on Iesa III beset by a crippling spirtual malaise..... of the many places I have been Iesa was arguably the worst period of my life..... I still don't wish to talk about it, however many things did come out of that that I suppose I can be thankful for.
After the events of a single bloody night we pulled out of Iesa III entirely and I was folded into Ametat Security where my application to the Praetoriate was successful and I became the soldier I was to be.
I've since learned after returning to the Throne Worlds that I have a half brother, my father having remarried some True Amarr of another noble family with influence in the Kador courts, not that he cares for my opinion having officially denounced me and stricken me from my inheritance, nor does he particularly approve of my status as an Immortal or my choice of slave.

The Caldari have superior tech and weaponry. Extremely skilled in anti-vehicle and long distance warfare, the best way to put it, we're the last thing they'll never see.
I think you are perhaps lacking an objective education on the history of your people.

((Fire Nation was a small island nation. It was based off of Japan, which makes it even more fitting as the Caldari have got the whole corporate Japan thing going for them... The Amarr would be the Earth Nation. The biggest, oldest nation, headed by what is essentially an Emporor.))
(( Actually if I were to break down the Empires based on characteristics displayed in the Avatar series the world would look like this.
Fire Nation - Caldari
Aggressive, interventionist, rigid social structure, all about honour and ethnic purity, nuff said
Earth Kingdom - Gallentean
Ruled effectively by a head of state in a land where the disparities between poor and rich are clear, strong presence media and propaganda, Dai Li = Black Eagles.
Air Nomads - Amarr
Highly spiritual and ceremonially dressed. Big focus on aesthetics and spiritual enlightenment with the core concept being transcendence much in the same manner the Amarr focus upon it.
Water Tribe - Minmatar
Disparate, seperated, enduring, tenascious, with their fair share of back water Lemur eating hicks. Highly rebellious, sneaky bastards attack during the night, and Spirits are big on the Minmatar radar.))

My how you Amarrians are becoming more and more lax with your own dogma.
It's almost as if you think I'm the only one that hasn't been struck across the face priceless irony of my own personal situation.
Nope this whole immortal manifest destiny thing sat me down first, long before the rest of you, and told me the secret I should have known from the start. That Kador Ouryon is ******. He always has been.
Maybe next time I sit down for tea with Almight God we'll have a chance for a nice long non-theocratic chat, shoot the ****, parlay as it were. Got a plan up there Big Guy or are we indulging in the Sef? Remmeber bro don't screw the crew. Got any plans for next weeks weather? Oh and yeah if you could get around to un-damning my immortal ******* soul, well that'd be swell.
