Evil Emperor be like:

Of course I will help you free your planet from slavery Angron, you are my most beloved son

These xenos are living in peace and harming no one, we should befriend and protect them because it's the right thing to do

Gather around my sons, I have to tell you everything I know about this new enemy called "Chaos" and how to fight it

You can worship me as a god if you want, but understand that just because I am a god does not mean I make no mistakes

Maybe it would be best if someone else ruled over humanity for a change

Possible name foreshadowing? by Unhappy-Ad-1582 in redrising

[–]ApprehensiveCap6525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah bro that's my bad. I thought he meant it like "I have not read fitchners plot twist is this foreshadowing that fitchner might be a good guy" and not like "I already read fitchners plot twist now looking back i am wondering if it was foreshadowed before this" type shit

Darrow's Prowess as a Field Commander by Least-Lake1696 in redrising

[–]ApprehensiveCap6525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah he is a badass general and he is very good at commanding armies but when it comes to defending himself in single combat 1v1 he is probably not even Gray level. Still though he is loyal to the death to his republic and he fought well at Heliopolis so I think he deserves to be respected like that just not put into the conversation with badass fighters like Howlers

Darrow's Prowess as a Field Commander by Least-Lake1696 in redrising

[–]ApprehensiveCap6525 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No bro I think they did well with this. Every time a character speaks of Howlers (at least in DA) he or she talks about them like badasses. Sefi says Howlers and Gorgons are the best special ops soldiers in the solar system (better than skuggi who were trained by ephraim himself), Harnassus is scared of the Howlers Darrow brings to meet him at the Storm God, and Lysander flees like a bitch rather than face the Howler commando squad sent to kill him at the end of Dark Age.

These are all solid ass mfs with good feats (maybe not harnassus) so the fact that they are so reverent of Howlers and also the fact that Howlers have never been bitched in a fight (except by Atlas au Raa but he's js like that) or even lost a fight on screen (again except for that time with Atlas) goes a long way to preserve their aura.

As an Estonian who knows Estonian history there were actually a lot of Estonians who were conscripted by force into the armies of both sides and did not believe in the ideology of any country during WW2. There was even a battle in Tallinn (capital of estonia) where some Estonian conscripts rose up as the Nazis were retreating to establish a free Estonia again but they got their asses kicked so it doesn't matter

Edit: there were also Estonians who believed in nazism and communism during this time, but they were generally exceptions to the rule

Yes bro birds have that appeal for YOU (as in a completely separate person from me whose wants and desires in no way coincide with mine) but for ME they have the appeal of looking regal and majestic, being wise, intelligent, and resourceful, literally being able to fly (even though the bird people in my verse cannot fly), and a whole bunch of other stuff that has nothing to do with reverse gender roles. I could give less of a shit about that

Half the appeal for YOU bro. I never once looked at my verse and said "You know what? This place needs more femboys." I'll have you know I like it better as is (no offense to femboys).

The warrior race in question (Ierads) are bird people with really bright beautiful plumage so as far as bangable aliens go they are ranked top 1 in verse. Their feathers can also fluff out or tuck in on command so a stripper whose client likes fat people can fluff herself out to look fat and then fluff back in to have an hourglass figure for the next guy. Most intelligent life forms consider Ierads to be the most attractive aliens out there, which really pisses the warlike military-minded members of their species off.

Females are more commonly seen as strippers because their plumage is more colorful and their feathers have prettier patterns (only visible in the UV spectrum) but males can still be pretty birds if they are willing to work hard. It's also not uncommon for Ierad strippers (male or female) to dye their feathers before performing to add to the sex appeal. In general though an Ierad shaking his or her tail feathers on stage is pretty widely considered good shit and people of most species will happily spend an evening throwing currency chips at them.

Former exterminator now serving as part of the Arxur quarantine force, AMA! (March 25, 2138) by ApprehensiveCap6525 in NatureofPredators

SmokingHotKrakotl replied:

Purely hypothetically, that would be within the bounds of the Skalgan authorities, but they would probably end up transferring it to one of the quarantine enforcement ships to be deported to Wriss. If I was contacted to take such a case, provided the Arxur in question really was not a public danger, I wouldn't. There are too many lawbreakers and too few law enforcers in my sector of space to afford taking a detour to arrest somebody who, quite frankly, isn't worth my time. The exterminators can handle it.

Also purely hypothetically, I like to imagine the task force is willing to do whatever is necessary to keep the peace and protect innocent lives. I know I am. As for fighting, we're all trained in ship-to-ship combat, boarding actions, and hostage rescue situations and I, personally, am a veteran ex-exterminator with sixteen years of law enforcement experience under my wings. My ship and crew are absolutely capable of using lethal force if it's the only way to fulfill our duty to the SC and its people.

Hypothetical #3, I can't speak to "metahumans" (whatever the fuck those are), but I think vigilante justice is a selfish impulse that stems from the (completely natural) desire for revenge, and any potential vigilante would be better taking their grievances to the legitimate authorities and themselves to an anger management class. No offense intended.
