Star Army: Difference between revisions

 

* ''[[The Empire|The Yamatai Star Empire]]'', a Japanese and Norse-themed [[Utopia|utopian society]] composed primarily by the [[Super Soldier|genetically-engineered]] [[Amazon Brigade|all-female]] [[Catgirl|Nekovalkryja]] and the [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?|more human bioroid]] Yamataians. Generally considered to be a benevolent if slightly belligerent superpower in recent years... [[Ax Crazy|as long as you don't]] [[Beware the Nice Ones|make an enemy of]] [[Omnicidal Maniac|them]]. [[Shout-Out|Takes heavy inspiration]] from [[Space Opera]] and [[Humongous Mecha]] series such as [[Martian Successor Nadesico]] and [[Bubblegum Crisis]].

* ''[[Scary Dogmatic Aliens|The Iromakuanhe Astral]] [[The Federation|Commonwealth]]'', the national government of the transhuman [[Human Subspecies|Iromakuanhe]]. [[Hidden Elf Village|An isolated faction]] in the grips of a [[Civil War]], that fields [[Organic Technology]] [[Humongous Mecha]] and [[Attack Drone]]s as its mainstay instead of [[Powered Armor]]. Have one of the most comprehensive [[Shown Their Work|backstories and fluff databases]] on the site.

* In addition, there is an unambiguously villainous superpower known as the NMX or ''[[No Pronunciation Guide|Neo Mishhuvurthyar Xhrafuklurp]]'', a race of [[Naughty Tentacles|tentacled]] [[Eldritch Abomination]]s that [[Horde of Alien Locusts|enslave, consume or destroy]] all in their wake. [[Mind Screw|Known to warp the perceptions of their slaves]] and induce perverse and unimaginable [[Naughty Tentacles|pleasures]] and [[Nightmare Fuel|agonies]], [[Murder Arson and Jaywalking|and making grits a part of their standard rations for conscripts]]. Conscript forces tend to have elements of the [[Deep South|US Civil War-era Confederacy]] in dress and decorum. {{spoiler|It was eventually revealed that they were a failed Nekovalkryja type that had been [[Body Horror|warped and twisted]] by [[The Corruption|Old Ones]]}}.

* [[A Father to His Men]] (Nepleslian commanders tend to be this, and their military generally enjoys a strong esprit de corps.)

* [[Affably Evil]] (SMX/NMX commanders are either, or [[Stupid Evil]]. Either way, they're always [[Complete Monster]]s.)

* [[Alien Blood]] (Averted, as most of the species have normal blood, or were engineered to have blood with special properties via genetic engineering or [[Nanomachines]]. NH-27 Nekovalkryja can manipulate the nanomachines in their blood and [[Bloody Murder|impale targets with it]], for example.)

* [[The Alliance]] (Nepleslia and the UOC)

* [[It's Raining Men]] (Nepleslians love this tactic.)

* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]] (In the Nepleslian military, your superior will often be this until you graduate to [[Vitriolic Best Buds]].)

* [[The Juggernaut]]

* [[Kill It with Fire]] (The aptly named Nepleslian Fire 1 powered armor was made of this trope, having a large plasma cannon that could incinerate tanks with a single shot. Plasma weapons in general tend to be this.)
