Kzinti Empire - offical empire thread

Published on November 15, 2007 By KzintiPatriarch In Metaverse

You have dared to enter the lair of the most ferocious predators in the galaxy!

It is the ulitmate destiny of the Kzinti to conquer the other civilizations of the galaxy, subjugate and enslave any who may prove useful to us, and devour the rest. The Fanged God has ordained that this is how it will be.

In just 26 octals of days (7 months or so...Kzinti count in base 8), the Kzinti Empire rose from obscurity, to #1 on the Metaverse. With the blessings of the Fanged God, we have remained dominant for 100s more octals of days since that auspicious day. We leapt past the other empires, and our mighty domain now encompasses over 32 million more light years than the second most powerful empire. The most recent Galactic Map data shows that we have subjugated over 45% of the galaxy. Many warriors from the old and dying empires have joined us, to avoid being eaten along with the rest. We hunger to establish indefinite supremacy over all the inferior sentient species...

We have also been #1 on the AltMeta for over 3 years running. The Empire grows more powerful with each passing day as new conquests are won, and more warriors join us in our inevitable rise to rule the galaxy!

The Kzinti are a species of bipedal space-faring feline predators, who love nothing more than conquest and battle. Created by sci-fi writer Larry Niven, the Kzinti have had many stories written about them, most notably in the Man-Kzin Wars series of books. They have also shown up in the Star Trek universe, and a number of other realities.

"Kzinti flesh has a very strong and pungent taste. The weak among us are devoured by their litter-mates within a few moons of birthing. Only the swiftest and most ferocious of us survive to their first naming-day. Those not fit to survive will never live to perpetuate their inferior bloodlines. This is the natural law of the galaxy." - Kzinti Warrior

"The meaning of life is the hot blood of your prey on your tongue, the meat that rends beneath your teeth, the corpse of your enemy left in the sun for the carrion eaters to finish, your defeated foe groveling in submission before you. That is what life is. We are the Kzinti, and we stronger, swifter, wiser, and more ferocious than any other race ever was or will be." - Kzinti philosopher

A salute to all those heroic t'kzintar who have made this empire a resounding success. Our conquests continue and the galaxy will never know peace!

I know we have had our differences... mostly when we invaded one anothers planets. We couldn't quiet get the hang of the human problem solver of 'paper, scissors, rock'. so we just shot eachother. But hey there is a first for everything. Wanna be friends?

If our claws can grasp it, it is rightfully ours...as we have down with countless worlds. Do you wish to prove yourself alongside our Heroic t'kzintar? Join us, and we will see if you can earn your name.

I had to keep resizing it, so I may go back later and fix it up some more.

And yeah, I could pass on the cigar smoke too but something that can be looked into. I wouldn't even mind reviving the Metaverse Council to be honest, but I think some overall would definitely be in order; I think, and i must state as a Non-Councilor, this is strictly opinion, but they got inundated by the bureaucracy of it all.

I do know that I personally feel that any form of the MVC, old, new, or re-imagined, should be public.

The only still active MVC councilors that I know of personally, are Neilo, Mumblefratz, and Wyndstar. I think MarshallONeil may have been one too.

Here are some of my more serious proposals:

Coordinating with Wyndstar and the Devs with the Tourneys. Much like the original idea by Ghostwes last summer (that evolved into the MVL) since its all the exact same scenario played by everyone, we could easily have Inter-Empire Games.

Promoting the MVL. And finally, really trying to see what obstacles stand in the way of integrating into the AltMeta.

Supporting and increasing the MV Empires both new and old, such as having their respective emperors and most vocal members being able to communicate in a public central locale to spur new ideas, MV issues, and friendly taunting. The OP would list each empire and a very brief summary. Basically, one thread that links to all the empires main pages.

Reinstating and expanding on the link between the Player and the Developers. The MVC had/has this but due to almost a year's worth on inactivity on the part of the MVC, something that could be reinstated and expanded upon.

Today is a great day for the Empire because we welcome one of the elite and most respected players of the game. A grand welcome to Wyndstar!!! We are honored to have him join the ranks of our fearless Heroes!

They are out there DA...but we all know that we will have our revenge soon enough. The Tyranny's newest strategy will soon come to light and then the Kzinti will really have something to worry about.

Congratulations Kzintis on adding a hunter as mighty as Wyndstar to your ranks. I just today posted in the Diplomats forum that we ought to invite him to join us. Ah well.

Have fun Wyndstar!

That said, Magnumaniac is back, having noticed how far ahead you all have gotten. He's good. (is there an "ironic understatement" emoticon?). Allow me to take a tenative intial foray into the realm of intra-empire trash talk: It's on.

Well, your trash talking seems a bit rusty, but the sentiment is clear. The more competition the better! That's what makes the MV fun.

Good to see the Diplomats stirring a bit more...

And also congrats to Magnumaniac for making my reign as the ZYW champ very very short!

Welcome aboard, Wyndstar, my mentor! I couldn't be more pleased than to see you here.

Glad to join. I needed to leave the Hegemony eventually, it was just a matter of where I landed. I talked with the diplomats, but never got an invitation, and I can't move myself to any empire without an invitation...

I'm not typically very active in these official threads, but I will stop in occasionally.

As for the Tyranny of Evil, I am already a member of that empire with my other character, so no need for BAD blood. Ha ha ha.

I see you have been doing some ZYWs today Wyndstar. Did you notice Magnumaniac's crushing of the previous score record? I'm going to spend some time tonight try to figure out what the heck he is doing to get such consistently high scores. Back to the games....

No BAD blood

. If I don't give someone some crap in here once in a while I don't feel like I'm doing my job

Hehe.

I went through a little ribbing when I joined here, too. Of course, after thoroughly whipping my fellow Tyrannts and subjecting them to my soul destroying terror, they came around.
