Darkest Hour

unpublished

The year is 2478 and the human race once again finds itself within Sol's borders. Like a phoenix from our bitter past, we have risen anew.

Like Aeneas, we had been cast out of our home. We searched the galaxy for a new home, and like him, we found it and made it our own. We struggled and were battered by the harsh conditions. But now, both ready and willing, we will eclipse the legends of old.

Now we shall fight to reclaim what is rightfully ours.

FOR ENDMASTER'S CONTEST<, PRAISED BE THE LEGEND.

Liberia and Sierra Leone are small countries on the west coast of Africa. Like many African countries, the lands are extremely rich in natural resources and vibrant in culture.

However, in the 1980s the climate halted in corruption and mismanagement under the All People's Congress Party. With over 70% of the people barely capable of buying a single cup of rice, survival became much harder. Not trusting in the democratic process any longer, the RUF was formed to drastically revamp the economic system and redistribute the country's wealth. They fought for education, jobs, and true democracy. In the process, they pillaged the lands and cut off many limbs.

It is in these times Joshua Milton Blahyi is born, butt naked. And in these times he'll fight, butt naked. For he is:

General Butt Naked.

Thanks for another great secret santa event, Mystic. But also Yummy! We got each other!

My biggest advice would be to see it as a fun hangout with your friends rather than a performative play you put on for nobody but yourselves. Get some beers, a couple snacks, and just have fun. Especially in a group with more than three players, the more you tryhard your roleplaying, the more forced and stilled it likely becomes and the more you inevitably hog the spotlight so to speak. Don't bother with different voices because there's no way you'll be able to hold onto that for the several hours a session likely lasts. Also don't overthink your character. The more 'rules', quirks and characteristics you place upon yourself, the more limited you'll likely feel in the moment. Just think of yourself, when you're talking are you going by a checklist of 'I am diligent, cautious and personable, thus I'd say this'? No, you just say stuff whatever comes up naturally. So aside from just chill and the do nots here's a couple things I'd say to do have cleared for yourself. How ruthless is your character? In what environment was he or she raised? What are their aspirations? I'd say if you have those three basics clear in your head, whatever you naturally improvise will form and fill out your character's personality during the sessions nicely.

Yeah this about sums it up.

First paragraph: I'd remove the comma on the first sentence and add 'the world' part in 'all over the world'. Overall reads like fine corpo marketing bullshit to me. Second paragraph/sentence: I'd remove the 'We like to think'. There are two distinct parts to the formula, it's a fact, not a thought. Perhaps you've observed or noted, but you do not think when you're corporate. Third paragraph: Instead of just 'One' I'd say something along the lines of 'primarily we pride ourselves on the quality...' "House made" is a weird term, makes me think of artisan/homemade. Fourth paragraph: Now I've sat with it for a while, I'd add something like pillar to ground the one/two example. "The second pillar our company's built upon is our impeccable customer service." This paragraph particularly reads a bit rambly. Fifth paragraph/sentence: It's weird that we went from customer service to security personnel. I'm missing a bridge here. So where before it all read like a marketing ploy, which was your intention, it now just turns into exposition. Sixth paragraph: I'd add a bridge between securing areas and hostile companies. Something along the lines of "These valuable members of the Caucasus family also defend us from our market rivals.". I'd also add 'most surely' to the 'attest to' in the last sentence to make it more fake-personable. Seventh paragraph: The first sentence reads iffy. Has another tone then the rest. I don't like the 'yet' here. I'm trying to read this in some kind of radio advertisement voice, and just don't hear that voice say 'yet'. The specific pistol and especially the specific type is also way to detailed and rambley for an introduction/orientation/marketing ploy. Eighth paragraph: I don't like the 'to society' here. Leave it out. "Once they have settled their debt, the Caucasus family is willing to let bygones be bygones and will always welcome them back..." Ninth paragraph: Good ending. No remarks. Overall: Yeah this text is a bit bipolar. The problem is that it is trying to say too much in too little space. So I'd say to fully focus on the company culture and its two pillars in this piece. Then let a follow up piece detail the personnel types.

Piece of advice. Never say sorry, kid.

I'll endeavour to make it a very interesting storygame too

I'm rooting for you guys.

Alright so drunk Enter got talked into joining this prompt contest and of course he saddled me with the nazi prompt. Anyway let's get a progress bar started. 1/1 drunk NYE party and sign up 2/1 drunk NYE party's second day. Forgot all about it. 3/1 sit on wtf I'm supposed to do with this prompt 4/1 828 words. Concept and worldbuilding done. 1968. The Germans won the war. The USSR is destroyed. The Americas are about the last beacon of democracy in a multipolar world between them Italy, Germany and Japan. We're following two CIA analysts when the big news drops. 5/1 2840 words 6/1 4151 words 7/1 no progress 8/1 5037 words

Oh that's a funny coincidence, mine will likely also be about the holocaust, with a highscore and everything
