OOC: Doings and Projects On The Colony

Posted Sept. 23, 2021, 11:13 a.m. by Civilian Kenzo B'tren-Hyrushi (Governor) (James Sinclair)

Hello everyone!

So I wanted to give everybody a listing of some (not all) of the doings and happenings going on in colony; as well as some goals that the Colonial Government is working towards IC. I’m going to break these down by Department, and if you have an idea for assisting, supporting, or even hindering (tsk-tsk for you even thinking such things!) IC, I encourage you to reach out to the person leading those Departments and seeing what you can come up with for story lines.

Now… I want to be clear on something. I want to see the people Oed move out of the dome. Governor Hyrushi has embarked on a very ambitious terraforming agenda, and it will take engagement and character-driven stories to move that forward. I am asking for all of you to help move the colony to the next stage of development. If you don’t know how to help, hit me up in an email or on Discord and I will be happy to help you. And you can always have your character interact with the governor… he is out and about a lot. So, without further ado…

  • Colony Terraforming: The Governor has asked the Director of Terraforming and the Head of Mining Operations to begin laying the groundwork for incorporating terraforming outside the dome. Mining has been directed to get ALL mines on the books open and active. That means increased traffic to and from the dome, and increased air traffic to the orbital refinery. All of that leads to more shipping into and out of the colony. It also means more mines… and who knows what could be found there?

  • Colony Development: There is a new Corporate Headquarters on Oed, that of Holloway Heavy Industries - the Federation’s leading designer and builder of high end commercial starships. Their arrival signals new prosperity for the colony, as well as a MASSIVE influx of people and infrastructure development. Looking for a job? I hear they are hiring. Looking for a target? You may not be the only one. In conjunction with their arrival, the Governor has negotiated for the company to develop education and public infrastructure within the dome. Not known to the VAST majority of citizens (read that as only those with fingers in very special pies) is that the Governor and Holloway Industries are looking at bringing in planetary atmospheric shield generators in order to cut down the time needed for the terraforming. What an absolutely unique and potentially lucrative business opportunity… (I’m looking at you, Ferengi. I am NOT looking at the smuggler. Nope, not even a little.) Additionally, new open spaces outside the dome may mean more towns… just saying.

  • The Oed V Zoo: I’m sure you have seen, but the city zoo is under new management! Thanks to a generous and only slightly coerced ‘gift’ form our illustrious Ferengi friends, we now have a top-of-the-line zoological facility. Make sure you swing by… or maybe try and add to the exhibits?

  • tangqa’ Tavern: The newest addition to the Oed nightlife scene is the wholly unique and wonderful bar with a Klingon… er, Viking.... I mean… um… well I did say *unique8, didn’t I? I strongly encourage anyone looking for a night out to visit.

  • The Klingons Are Here: As some have met or already knew, there is a Klingon ‘delegation’ on Oed. Led by the Lord of House Duroc, the Klingons are trying to establish an embassy for House Duroc (NOT the Empire) on Oed. Sites have been selected… maybe. But new friends are always welcome. Oh… and did I mention the two brand new Klingon warships in orbit over head? You know… the two that are a class never seen before? Yeah…

  • The Crash: Investigations are still underway concerning the crash of the unknown craft outside the dome. Interested? Oh, be careful where curiosity leads you…

  • Roster Vacancies: We have multiple open opportunities for both Star Fleet and Civilian positions. Do you have someone you love writing with, but you can never find a place where both of you can find open slots? Now is your chance! And just because the position isn’t on the roster doesn’t mean we don’t need it! Create your own! Have multiple characters! Write the stories you want to write… just stay active and have fun!

So that is a small taste of the things Oed has happening. Let me or Sidney know if you have any questions, concerns, or ideas. We are always available to help.

James
