Roleplay Rules for the New Coalition of Nations: Enkon Delta

Introduction to Enkon Delta Roleplay
The Enkon Delta is a vibrant roleplay (RP) setting in the Enkon system, where nations shape a dynamic world with a rich history spanning millennia. From former Gresk Empire colonies to starfaring settlers, players craft unique stories guided by community standards for a collaborative experience.

1. Nation Origins and Timeline

  • Nations may be native to Enkon Delta, with three origin options:

    • Former Gresk Empire Colonies: Descendants of settlements conquered or influenced by the Gresk Empire (1–283 AI).

    • Non-Gresk Nations: Independent societies, such as Moarish tribes, that resisted or avoided Gresk control.

    • Settlers from the Stars: Recent arrivals (up to 100 years ago) drawn by the NEXUS beacon or other means.

  • Nation histories must align with the LinkEnkon Timeline (from -500,000 AI Doec gates to 500 AI present day). For example, a Gresk colony might trace roots to 130 AI, while settlers arrived post-400 AI.

2. Technology and Setting

  • Technology ranges from Modern Tech (MT) to limited Future Tech (FT). If it’s plausible in movies, books, or TV, it’s generally allowed (credit to Athretvari).

  • Acceptable FT includes advanced robotics or small spacecraft, but must remain balanced. Community flags godmodding (e.g., invincible fleets) for revision.

  • The setting includes Enkon Delta’s surface and Near Orbit Enkon, with relics like the Doec NEXUS station shaping the narrative.

3. Roleplay Requirements

  • New players must submit two high-effort RPs within one week to join and claim a map spot:

    1. Introduction RP: Present your nation’s culture, government, or a key event establishing its role in Enkon Delta.

    2. Event RP: Detail a specific occurrence, like an election, festival, or conflict, showcasing your nation’s dynamics.

  • Posts must be detailed and engaging. Low-effort posts (e.g., one-liners) may be flagged for revision.

  • Submit RPs on the Regional Message Board or forum thread.

4. Non-Human Roleplaying

  • Non-human species are allowed with caveats:

    • Species cannot be intrinsically superior without drawbacks (e.g., strong but less intelligent).

    • No existing sci-fi/fantasy races (e.g., no Vulcans; unique elves may be okay).

    • Species must not break immersion (e.g., no transcendent light motes). Overly ridiculous concepts may require revision.

    • Non-human traits should complement, not dominate, your nation’s story. Focus on broader culture and narrative.

  • Consider if a human population achieves the same vibe. If non-human fits your vision, it’s permitted with community approval.

5. RP Consequences

  • Actions in RP have impact. If you create a situation (e.g., a resource dispute), expect others to respond by exploiting, resolving, or escalating it.

  • Engage with consequences to deepen the regional narrative, but respect community standards.

6. RP Circles of Control

  • Players control their nation and leadership. Others may not make decisions for your nation or leaders without consent.

  • With permission, players can RP as minor characters in your nation (e.g., a diplomat). Low-level roles (e.g., a news correspondent) can generally be RPed without consent.

  • Harmful actions (e.g., assassinations, major attacks) require express permission from the affected player. Unapproved actions will be flagged for revision.

7. Community Standards

  • Enkon Delta is collaborative. Respect others’ contributions and engage in good faith.

  • The community moderates via the Regional Message Board or LinkDiscord. Disruptive or unbalanced posts require revision.

  • Additional rules may be added as the RP evolves, announced via the Message Board or Discord.

8. Roleplay Freedom

  • A note about Settlers from the Stars: If your settlers come from a greater empire somewhere out there in the vastness of space, that's fine, but your nation at this point has no communication with and can receive no support from your homeland.

  • Beyond map/orbit claims and these rules, players have creative freedom to shape their nation’s story.

  • Engage others through diplomacy, trade, or conflict to enrich the Enkon narrative.

Getting Started
Post your Introduction RP and Event RP within one week. After community approval, claim a spot via the Map Claim Rules. Check the Regional Message Board or LinkDiscord for RP examples.
