Cloud City - What's up?

[punchsmith]

My Query: The Economic and Sociopolitical Status of Cloud City

Reasons: I'd like to launch an Open RP in the city, as my character is a resident. What is Bespin's current alignment and status? Are there any characters who reside on Cloud City to watch out for/invite to the thread or battles in progress?

I can blow up cloud city.

Would that work?

 

[punchsmith]

Absolutely not [member="RC 212 "]that absolutely would not work. You maniac. I mean... if you want to explode things in the resultant thread, we can do that. We can really set the stage for some serious explodings to come.

[member="Natasi Fortan"] would be best to answer, I believe.

Also, I'd be interested in such a thread. (Not really into freaking blowing it up, though.)

More explosions = More power!

I'm down for whateva either fleet or CQB. Ain't written RC in a hot minute so his skills are rusty as are his writers.

I definitely have no plans to blow it up, but when you make an omelette you gotta crack some eggs.

 

[Anse Tahvo]

[member="RC 212 "]has RC been punished for Nuking Keldabe?

 

[punchsmith]

[member="Anse Tahvo"] @RC 212

So that's his thing? He nukes things?

 

[RC 212]

[member="Anse Tahvo"]

Ummm?

Yeah I think. He's done been Captured like a billion times and then escaped or whatever. Threads all died off...

 

[Anse Tahvo]

[member="Bexel"] pretty much thats the extent of it. lol.

You miss the Chaos. Don't lie.

I skimmed through your bio.

Both you and I are former cops. Can definitely fit in the same thread, lol.

 

[punchsmith]

[member="Jorel Imos"] That's great! Yeah, I would like to know how I can either stage this guy's escape or retcon my way into being a detective in the clouds.

First you start the story. Just write it out man.

The First Order currently administers the Bespin sector.

As for status, it experiences extensive security thanks to the army, and large naval presence thanks to the current war with the Galactic Alliance. However, this is a double edged sword, and because of the increase in weapons production, Tibanna gas mining has been booming and the strong economic security provided by the Order.

THANK YOU. That's what I wanted to know. When did The First Order take over?

 

[RIP Carlyle Rausgeber]

[member="Bexel"]

ICly? I apologies, but I don't know.

You'd have to ask one of our faction staff, like [member="Samka Derith"], [member="Rolf Amsel"] or [member="Natasi Fortan"] for details.

 

[Natasi Fortan]

I don't know when exactly but you can safely assume it's been about 5 years, maybe?

We have brought unparalleled affluence and prosperity to the city. It is in a golden age of art and culture and being filthy fucking rich.

Just to provide a socio-economic point of view,

Bespin is up for a recession due to the constant rise in the economy and because of the sudden outbreak of war, specifically near the planet itself. Even with the state controlling the industry (I assume so, because the First Order is a fascist state), a mini depression is unavoidable.

You don't control the economy anywhere, but least of all the First Order
