FIGURINES: A Sovereign Roleplay
Hello, my dearest friends and enemies! Welcome to FIGURINES, the latest and greatest in Confederacy roleplaying! This is no ordinary roleplay. Oh, no! This, why, this is something entirely new! In this roleplay, you will be playing as your nation! Now, bear with me. I'm not talking just acting out what your nation does. I mean you will take on the persona of your nation. If your country had a human soul, you'd be playing with it in FIGURINES! If you've ever watched Hetalia (if you haven't, I highly recommend it), then you'll know what I'm talking about. Of course, you don't have to be a human; just a friendly suggestion ^_^ But, you do have to be a NationStates nation (or at least be someone from a NationStates nation). The real world has no power here.
Now that we have that out of the way, let's get started with (*dramatic drum roll*) DA RULES!
~No metagaming or godmodding. This is Planet COFN Earth, not a world of your own creation. Obey the laws of physics and decency, and don't kill or control another character without the owner's explicit permission.
~Stay in character. If you want to address other roleplayers or talk to the "4th Wall", use parentheses.
~For the love of all things high and mighty, no direct gore or sex. Tear it up and get it on somethere else. kthx.
~The word of Vista Major is law. So is that of the Council of Roleplay, should they ever poke their faces in here (pray to God they don't). Live it, learn it, love it. Period. APPLICATION1. What's your nation? Yes, the whole name.
2. Describe your nation. You know, culture, government, price of milk, that sort of thing. Keep it brief.
3. If you have any dispatches of your nation, link them below. Because, we all wanna read the juicy bits.
4. What is the name of your character? If you're American, I recommend something like Bobby Sam.
5. What does your character look like? Pictures or descriptions, mir egal.
6. Describe your character. Are they evil, do they have a job, do they enjoy casual walks along the beach, do they have a steady relationship? All that and more, if you would. Or none, what can I do?
7. If there's anything else we should know, let us know. We're here to help <3 Once I get you approved you can roleplay on the IC thread. Enjoy!

1. What's your nation? Yes, the whole name. The Ædenist Heartland of Andromitus 2. Describe your nation. Keep it brief. Andromitus is the Heartland region of the Ædenist Union, a union of those following Ædenism, a near-communist ideology similar to Socialism. The nation in and of itself is incredibly diverse for its location, although several of its secondary languages are reminiscent of High German. Currently, in the year 2020 Andromitus is a powerful player in international affairs and a strong advocate for global socialism and Ædenism. 3. If you have any dispatches of your nation, link them below. Because, we all wanna read the juicy bits. This is my Primary Factbook, It should link to every other factbook www.nationstates.net/nation=andromitus/detail=factbook/id=6440814. What is the name of your character? If you're Scandinavian, I recommend something like Bjorn Oak-Splinterer Andreus (Andre - Us (Get it?)) 5. What does your character look like? Pictures or descriptions. Body Type: Humanoid* Lightly Tan Skin, Small millimeter long diamond shaped cells (DSC) can be seen making up his body, 6.2 Feet tall, Coffee & Curly Hair, Starry Eyes** Clothing: White Robe, similar to those in certain Tibetan cultures, Gold Chain necklace Items: Holds a Foot long Mahogany twig — Magic Calming (Beating) Wand — a small silver tea bell with three dots positioned triangularly, and a Brass steampunk pocket watch Accompanied by: A fairly large, black house cat, with a a variety of stripes and dots in a multitude of vibrant colors, and a bright white dot like a third eye on its forehead; Usually found resting on the right shoulder *In actuality, Andreus is a Colonial Organism similar in shape to a human, as seen with the DSC's making up his form. This represents Andromitus's similarity to a group mind (Harmony). Each of Andreus's organisms has a semi-independent mind, and they combine to form the colonial mind. While as a whole Andreus is a complete hive mind, individual cells can leave the Colony and independently survive. As Such, Andreus prefers the term "Group Mind" or "Colonial Mind" over "Hive Mind" **Starry Eyes like my friend Zeus here ( www.artfido.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/rescued-blind-owl-zeus-5.jpg ) ( scontent.cdninstagram.com/hphotos-xaf1/t51.2885-15/s640x640/sh0.08/e35/11821701_1666708946948852_1031761789_n.jpg ) 6. Describe your character. Are they evil, do they have a job, do they enjoy casual walks along the beach, do they have a steady relationship? They most certainly are not evil however they have a powerful superiority complex and are pacifists by nature(s); they all maintain a variety of jobs to keep the Colony and themselves alive; They do enjoy long walks in almost any setting; they also work in IT; while they should be referred to in genderless third person plural, they speak in the Genderless First Person; They are a relationship; They also represent the general nature of "Andrealls" described within my factbooks.

1. What's your nation? Yes, the whole name. The Konigreich of Oelesa 2. Describe your nation. You know, culture, government, price of milk, that sort of thing. Keep it brief. Our culture is beer, mashedpotatoes, love for all people regardless of anything else, High and strong nationalism, and belief in a strong ethical military. Our Government is ruled by a Monarch, but one with very limited power but with much power over the military. We have a two house system, and judicial justices. In the economic view, The pay gap between the rich and poop is slim. those that are poor get a hand up when needed, Nuclear Power re search is bringing us close to energy independence, and we are the 4th largest in the world in farming. 3. If you have any dispatches of your nation, link them below. Because, we all wanna read the juicy bits. I have toooooo many. And some need updating. You'll just have to look 4. What is the name of your character? If you're American, I recommend something like Bobby Sam. Felix Lutz 5. What does your character look like? Pictures or descriptions, mir egal. I look like Prussia, that enough description? lol 6. Describe your character. Are they evil, do they have a job, do they enjoy casual walks along the beach, do they have a steady relationship? All that and more, if you would. Or none, what can I do? Felix does like to do some evil deeds, Felix's only job is to stay alive they don't let much else happen. Felix loves hiking in the woods, watching the stars at night and cuddling up to his German Shepard named Kaiser. 7. If there's anything else we should know, let us know. We're here to help Oelesa is an older nation, and so some ideas Felix still holds to be true, hence why he likes to do some evil deeds. He may have some awkawrd relationships with nations like Vista. Since his people did descend from Vista, so technically Vista is Oel's Daddy.

1. What's your nation? Yes, the whole name. The Cross and Davids Star
2. Describe your nation. You know, culture, government, price of milk, that sort of thing. Keep it brief. The Cross and Davids Star is a Theocratic country well also having a governmental system relating close to that of the Knights Templar. Being a heavy Christian country it is considered illegal to belong to another religion other than Christianity however atheists are tolerated but are looked down upon.
3. If you have any dispatches of your nation, link them below. Because, we all wanna read the juicy bits. I wish I could say have any good dispatches but I really don't.
4. What is the name of your character? If you're American, I recommend something like Bobby Sam. Elijah the High Servant.
5. What does your character look like? Pictures or descriptions, mir egal. Elijah the high servant dresses as a mix between a priest and a Templar Knight, with also having a black cape with a white Cross and David Star emblazoned on it
6. Describe your character. Are they evil, do they have a job, do they enjoy casual walks along the beach, do they have a steady relationship? All that and more, if you would. Or none, what can I do? Elijah holds up a high moral code and attempts the follow the rules in the Bible by the letter, but is not afraid to break that moral code if the need arises other than that not much is known about him.

1. What's your nation? Yes, the whole name. The State of Percyton 2. Describe your nation. You know, culture, government, price of milk, that sort of thing. Keep it brief.
Percyton is located on the Island of Sodor, an island in the Irish Sea, between the Isle of Man and the British region of Cumbria. Percyton is best known for its sentient vehicles, especially the sentient rail locomotives, many of whom occupy key positions in the Percytonian government (Percy the Small Engine as King, Thomas the Tank Engine as Foreign Minister, etc.). Not surprisingly, Sodor is covered in railway tracks which criss-cross the Island. Percyton is a semi-constitutional monarchy, with power being split between three groups: the Monarch, the democratically-elected Percytonian Parliament, and the self-appointed Supreme Council which appoints and advise the monarch. Economically, Percyton is quite wealthy, making most of its money through tourism, and through royalties and licensing fees from the worldwide Thomas and Friends media franchise (which is partly based on Percyton). 3. If you have any dispatches of your nation, link them below. Because, we all wanna read the juicy bits. www.nationstates.net/nation=percyton/detail=factbook4. What is the name of your character? If you're American, I recommend something like Bobby Sam.
Percy Machan Avonside 5. What does your character look like? Pictures or descriptions, mir egal.
Percy has somewhat-long blonde hair, blue eyes, and a pale complexion. He wears a red shirt with a bright green jacket, with the jacket having a big, yellow #6 on the back. Percy also wears blue jeans, tennis shoes, and on most days, a blue conductor's hat. He's of average weight (though slightly on the skinny side), and he's about 5 feet 7 inches tall. 6. Describe your character. Are they evil, do they have a job, do they enjoy casual walks along the beach, do they have a steady relationship? All that and more, if you would. Or none, what can I do?
Percy is a very kind and cheerful person, who tries to be friends with everyone. Since Percy was homeschooled for most of his life, he is very naive and still has much to learn about the world. To those who know him well, Percy also has some hidden depths: He can be cheeky and loves playing little tricks, he loves to work, and if he sees someone in danger, Percy can also be quite brave in coming to that person's aid. Percy's hobbies are model railroading (of course!), stamp collecting, and taking strolls through the countryside. 7. If there's anything else we should know, let us know. We're here to help <3I'm of course a steam engine in real life, but I'm not sure what story possibilities there would be if I was still an engine. So, this is my human self! I hope you like it!

1. What's your nation? Yes, the whole name. A: The Federal Socialist Republic of the United Providences of Perland (inhales deeply)
2. Describe your nation. You know, culture, government, price of milk, that sort of thing. Keep it brief. A: The United Providences of Perland is a federal republic with a moderate viewpoint. The country is (obviously) divided into twelve provinces, however provincial governments have little power. The nation prides itself on education, spending 18% of the annual budget on it, leading into trillions of Sularons. Religion is almost nonexistent. Despite left leaning social policy Perland has a rigorous legal system, averaging 300 executions a year for charges ranging from Murder of a LEO, to Treason. Nuclear and solar energy power the vast land, located in the Asian content from its uprising in the early 19th century. Canadian settlers rushed to the area after the American Civil War, but ended up pretty much taking over the area, inevitably installing their own government.

4. What is the name of your character? If you're American, I recommend something like Bobby Sam. A: Daniel Boyd
5. What does your character look like? Pictures or descriptions. A:6'1 white male, age 44, black haired and brown eyed. Always wearing a sleek black suit complimented by a similar colored fedora. He is slightly visually impaired due to his time in the military therefor wearing glasses.
6. Describe your character. Are they evil, do they have a job, do they enjoy casual walks along the beach, do they have a steady relationship? All that and more, if you would. Or none, what can I do? A: Daniel is the Deputy Officer of Defense for Perland, and despite having a slight hatred of the world is pretty kind. He lives alone in a nice house in Perlin. Before becoming a bureaucrat, he was the High Admiral of the Perlandian Navy, having 27 years on the job. He is specially gifted in firearms and has a specially modified Desert Eagle, with ammo of his own creation. The weapon is so dangerous it has a special firearms class.

1. What's your nation? Yes, the whole name.The Federal Democracy of Vista Major2. Describe your nation. You know, culture, government, price of milk, that sort of thing. Keep it brief.Vista Major is a very liberal--er, socialist--nation, known for its hands-off approach to everything but economics and government, where it keeps a stranglehold stronger than a lasso around a cow's neck. Vista Major has just recently undergone a political facelift, striving to rebrand itself as a rich and powerful nation that doesn't keep to itself. Sharp tongues and kind hospitality are the Vistonian way, and they've held true for centuries.3. If you have any dispatches of your nation, link them below. Because, we all wanna read the juicy bits.Here's a list of everything I have thusfar.4. What is the name of your character? If you're American, I recommend something like Bobby Sam.Aksel Ahlsson5. What does your character look like? Pictures or descriptions, mir egal.Aksel Ahlsson is chocolate brown with curly black hair cut short on his head. He also has dark blue eyes, and is rather tall (6'3"). As far as clothing, Aksel wears a black-and-white thin striped shirt resembling his nation's flag, dark grey jeans, and hot pink sneakers. He also wears a wooden bead necklace engraved with scripts from both the Austrans and the Ascokin.

Flag6. Describe your character. Are they evil, do they have a job, do they enjoy casual walks along the beach, do they have a steady relationship? All that and more, if you would. Or none, what can I do?Aksel is an overly optimistic fellow with a marked propensity towards naïvity and selflessness. Aksel treats everyone like they're a best friend or a noble charity case, depending on his mood and the situation. Such profuse kindness/unwitting patronization does not extend to his "brothers", Rak-Na (Austran) and Rothark (Ascokin), the two Scandinavians that came before him; Aksel is exceedingly uneasy about the fact that Rothark "gave birth" to nations such as Oelesa, making Aksel a "father/uncle" to Felix by blood. Aksel has only seen Rothark once when he was a mere child, and he is on tense speaking terms with Rak-Na, who never fully forgave Vista Major for its conquest of Austran lands in the old days despite political and societal reconciliation. Aksel enjoys reading and writing Nordic ballads, though he still enjoys modern music (smooth jazz and dream pop, in particular). He also likes chocolate, milkshakes, the color pink, and flirting with anyone he finds even remotely attractive (which 9 times out of 10 tends to be men of all sorts).7. If there's anything else we should know, let us know. We're here to help <3Aksel will answer any question you ask of him as if he's on truth serum. But, Aksel can be very very vengeful if he feels like he's being manipulated or made to look stupid. I approve Aksel, because, reasons.

1. What's your nation? The United Socialist States of Sulania (USSS) 2. Describe your nation. A Nation built on socialist values, Sulania is a strong believer in working for the people. The nation focuses heavily on education and healthcare, with a strong relation to Kalaron. As it stands, Sulania is split between Republicans who want a democratic nation built on Social Democratic values, with strong relations to CONCORD and the Socialists who want a firm Autocratical state to enforce Stalinist Socialism. 3. If you have any dispatches of your nation, link them below. N/A 4. What is the name of your character? Katerina Smirnov 5. What does your character look like? Katerina Smirnov
Katerina typically wears an officer outfit everywhere, with no makeup and very plain features. 6. Describe your character. Are they evil, do they have a job, do they enjoy casual walks along the beach, do they have a steady relationship? All that and more, if you would. Or none, what can I do?
Katerina Smirnov is a conflicted individual. On the outside, she displays herself as an intimidating and strong independent woman. She tends to frighten those who don't know her, as she can come across as rather stern and forceful. In private, she holds a lot of compassion for others, and wants to help everyone achieve their best. She believes her intimidating approach helps in making things better, though she knows that she can go too far at times and does want to get better. She has a long distance relationship with Kalaron, and often wears her promise ring. In her past time, she mostly enjoys reading and tutoring. 7. If there's anything else we should know, let us know. We're here to help <3Katerina loves cake, and will destroy anyone who dares comes between her and cake.

APPLICATION 1. What's your nation? Yes, the whole name. The People's Republic of Friedensreich 2. Describe your nation. You know, culture, government, price of milk, that sort of thing. Keep it brief. Culture is very hedonistic, the likes of which would put even the Romans to shame. Although very lax, the nation tends to be very devoted to their politics, almost religiously. The government is a republican one that, although allows many parties for concessions to its adherents, tends to stick to a single political party due to a recent and dark event in its history. 3. If you have any dispatches of your nation, link them below. Because, we all wanna read the juicy bits. I'll refer you to my history factbook for some background, but if any questions need to be answered please do not hesitate to ask them. 4. What is the name of your character? If you're American, I recommend something like Bobby Sam. Dr. Bo Riegel, Ph.D (genetics) 5. What does your character look like? Pictures or descriptions, mir egal. 6. Describe your character. Are they evil, do they have a job, do they enjoy casual walks along the beach, do they have a steady relationship? All that and more, if you would. Or none, what can I do? Dr. Riegel is a man of 30 years of age, and enjoys a career in genetics research. He is very outgoing and hedonistic, and tends to be more forgetful because of his habitual end-of-week opium trips. Dr. Riegel is very light hearted and ditzy, which has earned him a reputation as a man with little to no filter when he speaks and rather loose in the head. Although he seems extremely whimsical on the surface, he's actually a very magnetic and charismatic man, to the point that these attributes are almost sub-conscious. He could be extremely flirtatious and not even notice it until it was too late! He is also prone to some mild cold-hearted behavior, like laughing at another characters' expense if he does not like them or laughing at a fight between others, depending on who was fighting and if he liked them or not. Despite this, he is very protective of those close to him and tends to be very open and transparent. 7. If there's anything else we should know, let us know. We're here to help <3 (I tried to base Dr. Riegel's personality off of my own, just because it's easier for me to write out a reaction in a way that I genuinely would, and not through a filter. I filter myself enough in the MT RP, dammit)
