Article #4 of Omnivirate's Providence Arc Omnivirate Lands on Xrim The Eternal encompasses all. Dionae are its embodiment. The Cycle shall continue. The Hum has just received news of the magnanimous Omnivirate having arrived to the Covenant of Xrim, commencing their objective within the Wrought Iron Temple – the largest building of faith on the entirety of the planet. Grand Representative Gyul’ra Jux allegedly greeted the religious leaders upon their arrival, citing that the Nralakk Federation would ensure that proceedings would commence without interruptions – even stationing several of their own Tupkala to stand guard within the Temple over the meeting between the Triumvirate and Omnivirate. Discussions amongst the two groups are still ongoing – with the Grand Representative merely maintaining an uninvolved approach over the proceedings according to information coming from sources present within the Covenant of Xrim. Strangely, the Omnivirate has remained merged throughout its deliberations, and even upon arrival to the Covenant of Xrim, its Argus stature towering over all present. Concerns over the Argus’ health have been uttered by many within the Eternal Gardens, but scholars amongst the Temple have assured that the Omnivirate is being treated with preventative bark treatments.

Article #3 of Omnivirate's Providence Arc Covenant of Xrim Condemned Omniscience, Omnipotence, and Omnipresence. The Trifecta of which all Eternal follow, in one way or another. The Hum has been told by the gracious Omnivirate to make aware to all Dionae its condemnation of the policies instituted by the Covenant of Xrim, and their brutal acts of control against those not holding similar beliefs to the governing body. The Omnivirate has outlined its first step shall be to rectify the religious persecution against Dionae within the Covenant – at least to the extent it currently is. The Omnivirate has already reported plans to make way to the Covenant, even Amplified by Probing Discoveries of Unknown Investigations who generally ensure themselves out of reach of the so-called “Enlightened”. In an attempt to broker some kind of agreement amongst the Covenant’s governing consensus to relieve the persecution against Dionae not adhering to their policies, they have scheduled to meet with the Triumvirate upon arrival. It is unknown whether the meeting will be fruitful, but hope for a common ground to be established amongst both the Scorned and the Enlightened – more than merely a unifying faith. With the Omnivirate having already departed and making its way to the Covenant, they expect their efforts within the Eternal Gardens to proceed without obstacle with the assistance of their appointed Overseers.

Article #2 of Omnivirate's Providence Arc Omnivirate Sends Out Summons Essence, Light and Energy. Each is an element in which the Eternal subsists. It is all-encompassing and welcoming. The Hum is pleased to announce that the blessed Omnivirate has directed the Temple to begin summoning those who fled from Rueltab I to begin making their way to the Eternal Gardens – announcing their intention to take in all those that arrive. Efforts are still underway by appointed Overseers to expand the Temple’s influence within the Eternal Gardens, being allocated funds to purchase additional property not yet owned by the Omnivirate. The Omnivirate continues to deliberate on its choice for adjusting its policies as a result of contemporary circumstances that the Spur faces but has in the meantime assured officials from the Republic of Biesel that those who make their way to the Eternal Gardens will be provided with occupations relating to the upkeep and maintenance of the district – meaning that many qualify for work visas. The Eternal Gardens has seen significant overhauling since the decree of the Omnivirate to begin expanding the reach of the Temple. Funds and labour are being poured into the outskirts of the district, with even those of us from the Hum remarking that the inhabitants of the Eternal Gardens have never seen this many Dionae working towards a common goal of uplifting both its brethren from Rueltab and those that reside within the district.

Beginning of the Omnivirate's Providence Arc Article #1 Omnivirate Announces Political Concerns The Eternal exists within each and every Dionae. Only through recognising its reach, can one truly begin to ascend. The Hum reports that the hallowed Omnivirate has announced they plan to adjust their policies relating to interference in stellar politics, citing the egregious handling of Rueltab following the collapse of the Solarian Alliance; forcing many of the Dionae to flee from the site in which they would repay reparations and seek safety across the stars – anywhere that would accept them. Believed to have been spurred following the Omnivirate’s discovery of the overwhelming number of Dionae settling within the Eternal Gardens, and who subsequently criticized their tumultuous journey through contested Solarian space and the losses that came with the crossing to the Omnivirate. High Overseers Connected to the Blossoms Beyond, Amplified by Probing Discoveries of Unknown Investigators and Rational Knowledge of Embodied Sanguis have temporarily merged with one another to best decide the most promising way forward that would agree with the three perspectives of the schools of thought within the Eternal - using the monicker Hallowed Conglomeration of Divine Interpretation. The Eternal Temple has gone quiet since the temporary merging of the Omnivirate, who have requested to hold silence whilst they make their decision. Many of those that fled from Rueltab I, being the remnants of the Last Vociferation of the Superlative Consensus, have begun to be allocated space within the Eternal Gardens by Overseers appointed by the Omnivirate – mostly within the influence of the Temple, with even short-term housing being constructed to ensure each and every Dionae that continues to arrive has a place where they will be accepted with open arms.

We’re looking for someone who has a passion for the species and is overall willing to work in a team environment – not just with the Dionae Lore Team, but the greater Lore Team as well. Whilst prior writing experience is preferable, it does not deter your chances of being selected! Additionally, coding experience and artistic ability is not a requirement, but an advantage to an applicant. Now, for the questions! Thank you, and goodluck. There are no wrong answers. Please follow the guidelines when posting an application.

GregorySmash - dionea whitelist
Caelphon replied to Gregory's topic in Whitelist Applications Archives
Unfortunately, we’ve decided to deny this application. The time period allocated is three days, after this you are free to reapply. The main issue is that it feels like you aren’t really engrossing yourself within Dionae Lore, more so only touching on the surface elements. I tried to explore this with questions but your answers weren’t really satisfactory. Youre nearly there! For your next application I’d advise going over previous applications, asking questions in the lore discord, and reading over the pages again. You don’t have to play an application character! But for your first, I’d advise making a character that touches on significant pieces of lore. Take for example one of the minor dionae factions, or Dionae from the Eternal Gardens! I wish you the best of luck in the future! -
GregorySmash - dionea whitelist
Caelphon replied to Gregory's topic in Whitelist Applications Archives
Hi there! Sorry for the wait. Just one last question / request. The Team feels, that although your application does cover what is necessary, we’d like for you to perhaps elect a different conglomerate of Dionae and give a brief “new character” outline just so we know that you’re aware of the cultural elements of the species. Thank you! -

meep109 - Skrell Deputy Application
Caelphon replied to meep109's topic in Developer Applications Archives
Though I have not interacted with you, you do write well! I enjoy your ideas. 1. How do you feel about Dionae in the Federation? Anything you’d change? Anything you’d want to see added? Removed? -
Kermit's Skrell Lore Deputy Application
Caelphon replied to kermit's topic in Developer Applications Archives
Recalling your Skrell Application, from almost a year back, you have an incredible ability to weave a story based on what’s given to you — and I think Skrell Lore would perform admirably with you. Just a few questions: 1. How do you feel about Dionae and the Federation? Anything you like, anything you don’t like? What would you change if you could hypothetically change it unilaterally. 2. Do you see any issues with inter-species coordination and developing lore that would impact more than just Skrell Lore? -

Do you mind expanding in what makes this species different to roleplay than humans? The team will assess following that! Thank you! -
Casgam1 Dionae Application
Caelphon replied to CasualMemer's topic in Whitelist Applications Archives
Hi there! Thank you for your application. It’s a bit short, but hopefully with some questions we can get to know some more. 1. How does your character feel about Hephaestus Industries? 2. What was their experience like in C-block? How did they discover they enjoyed song-writing? 3. Why did they seek the SCCV Horizon, why not a lesser well-known exploratory vessel? 4. How does their initial wildness, or rather having been voidic, impact them today? How did they integrate with C-block? 5. How does the Harmonious Hymn impact their decision making? How will this impact their personality? 6. How old is the Gestalt? Were they all voidic, or did some from the Narrows join them? Thank you! -
WhatsUpBrotendo Deputy Loremaster App
Caelphon replied to WhatsUpBrotendo's topic in Developer Applications Archives
As said in the previous application, Brotendo was a strong contender for Deputy Loremaster during my holding of the position. I have no doubt they'd make an excellent Deputy Loremaster. This application has my support. -
Well, Tau Ceti as a whole (this means the Corporate Reconstruction Zone [Port Antillia & Mictlan] and the actually Tau Ceti [Biesel, Valkyrie & Reade]) are all under the purview of the Lore Team Administration -- at this point, @Triogenix and his elected Deputy Loremaster. Really, every city mentioned is a "major population centre" whereas there's a large conglomeration of people, it doesn't necessarily mean its a huge city like Mendell City, or Arequipa or the provincial capitals mentioned across Port Antillia. Let's look at Caxamalca for instance, in regard to drafting your own mock-up. It gives us a few key things: 1. Environment, which can be used by players when talking as their characters (Joe Mictlan: "Back in Malca, the winds from Tepeyollotli used to ravage us on our ways to the mines.") 2. Primary economy (Mining), which can be used by players to give a background to their skills (Joe Mictlan, Supervisor at a mine in Caxamalca, now Head of Personnel on the SCCV Horizon.) 3. Culture, another thing to blend into your character (Joe Mictlan, who likes his fungibars with a Chilean-style twist!) 4. Lastly, how does one possibly escape or leave this origin? Introduction of Hephaestus Industries clears that for us (Joe Mictlan, previously a Mining Supervisor gets transferred by Hephaestus to the SCCV Horizon, coaxed by increased pay and ability to send money back to his family on Mictlan, or take them away from the dangers of the Samaritans should it ever come to Caxamalca). I hope that helps clear up some confusion? @lilahnovi

Cael’s Dionae Lore Writer Application
Caelphon replied to Caelphon's topic in Developer Applications Archives
I believe compromises are a necessary step for any team to work, and communication. I will always ensure the deputies have their voice and opinion heard on any development moving forward, I do try my best as Loremaster, and I have no doubts this will carry over to Dionae Lore. I hope that helps any worries? -

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ntxA61vf3WZO9eO9TJRB91RIwi4wJ6zB7QETIWn05yU/edit?usp=sharing This is my intended expansion of the Eternal, a stepping stone in the direction I wish to take. -
Cael’s Dionae Lore Writer Application
Caelphon replied to Caelphon's topic in Developer Applications Archives
Of course, I imagine it would also be something commonly found across Voidic Dionae as well, and would tie in especially with my idea of the "hardline industrialist" view. I would likely expand its existence on EUM as well, with caveats as to how it is viewed by different Dionae and whatnot. -
Cael’s Dionae Lore Writer Application
Caelphon replied to Caelphon's topic in Developer Applications Archives
I'd like to factor that into my expansion on Moghes Dionae, and their consumption of Unathi having perished following the atomic cataclysm, and expand the religion there with elements of Th'akh. I think it would mesh well together, as having formed as a mashing. -
Cael’s Dionae Lore Writer Application
Caelphon replied to Caelphon's topic in Developer Applications Archives
Hi there, thanks for the questions! 1. I have no plans to remove any of the branches, but instead expand on them and their impact on Dionae. I solemnly believe that the Eternal is ripe with potential for engaging, interesting content that can be used more dynamically with the species. My plan is to primarily integrate Xrim's reverence of Glorsh-Omega and Iron Eternal to be where it originated from, and tie it more into that than its current existence of having merely "popped" into belief. 2. I do not seek to change its current existence of how it currently manages itself, but moreso how it goes about managing itself (confusing I know) through trimming some of the sections, and expanding on existing sections relating to how planetary unification works. I enjoy the name, having come up with it, "Co-operative Territories of Epsilon Ursae Minoris" which has a nice ring to it -- though perhaps shift it from Co-operative to Covenant, so we can all it "The Covenant" as a more unique name, but I understand the implications from borrowing such a name (with reference to Halo's "The Flood").
