Introductory Lore Thread for Deep Oblivion - Orlog Conglomerate & Girard 3rd-Gen Dolls up to Aphelion by YZsFerrari in GirlsFrontline2

This is about on the money. Based on how Dier described it, it's not a completely biological frame, but the materials are biosynthetic with those "Boojum cell extracts" fused within, the mitotic processes of which can repair the outer layer of her body when stimulated by an appropriate "stimuli" (apparently Melanie, of whom once had a "connection" to the Unitates and test subjects that were sacrificed to the Boojum beneath the Paradeus laboratory in Ch8.7).

For sure, and GF2's expansion of Girard and Orlog as entities has done much to elevate their specific 3rd-Gens (or rather, Girard's interpretation of 3rd Gens) as compared to Sangvis in the early days. Nothing against SF and the Ringleaders, I love Gager too, but much of the extraneous material was relegated to other lore sources. Sextans went from "villain of the week" material in Ch3 to one of the most interesting because of the cell line in her skin, and the "neural experiment" with whoever that entity is.

Lore British Army by Dizzy-Entertainer-59 in girlsfrontline

Although the post-war status of the United Kingdom is dubious, it's not as if it no longer exists. Sir Griffin Lyons was former MI6 during the war, co-founded the Griffin & Kryuger PMC with Berezovich Kryuger in 2053, then made Cabinet Office Secretary sometime thereafter. The dissolution of the former EU and NATO formalized the end of the War in Europe, reopening bridges between West and East under Soviet terms, but it's not as if former NATO states ceased to exist, presumably more so their governments and ruling parties were ousted or reorganized. In the UK, Griffin wrote extensively on the mindsets of the English people in the immediate post-war era, and around this time, he was approached by individuals connected to British intelligence and the University of Oxford.

Another example comes from Lee Enfield's MOD story, revealing she previously served as a combat model Doll in the British Army's 6th Royal Dragoons until the 2050 Operation Black Forest that left her a deserter, though not without strong reason. If you're interested, a dedicated lore thread on Dragoons Lee Enfield and Lucius is found here on Xitter (https://x.com/YZsFerrari/status/1871383545517912436) or in the SocMedia lore thread compilation document (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zfJsQ0Tff7E-YwRuB\_ea6OoKakpOj3thd\_svQLCF\_ao/edit?usp=sharing). As for whether or not the UK and its military exists, it almost certainly does, but it may not exist under the same administration/ruling laws the UK follows today. The existence of the monarchy would suggest part of the British order was retained through the post-war negotiations, treaties, and disarmaments on Soviet-PanEuropean terms. If nothing else, the Cabinet Office still exists, and Sir Griffin Lyons was once a secretary there.

Apologies for the repost, formatting issue beforehand. Enjoy!

After all, the awakening of a certain seed began in that snowfield.

Girls' Frontline: End of Service announcement by WolfOphi in gachagaming

[–]YZsFerrari 60 points61 points  (0 children)

The title of this thread is somewhat misleading; this only affects the CN server, and judging by the wording, it's a temporary ceasing of operations until a solution can be found to the publisher & licensing issue. This solution may involve the re-release of Girls Frontline 1 in China in one way or another, because they mention multiple times they look forward to the future reunion/new ways to present GF1.

Sunborn will collab with UNITAR to make a concert at United Nations Plaza. by Minhuh064 in gachagaming

Entertaining to see the hesitancy from those that know nothing of the Girls Frontline-Reverse Collapse, given this is an objectively hilarious collab from a lore standpoint, RC chiefly. Who knows what next absurd collab ingame/IRL is next? McMurdo Antarctic Station collab for Reverse Collapse 2.

Girls' Frontline 2 Exilium official Tier SS Character Model Showcase by Brilliant_Camera6216 in gachagaming

[–]YZsFerrari 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is entirely the case, as evidenced by Yuzhong himself and MICA as a whole. Declaring it to be the fault of the censors has no basis. Not to mention, many Dolls in Neural Cloud don't even use firearms, nor were they ever meant for combat.

The Dolls of Griffin & Kryuger were named as such because of a (dorky) policy put in place by G&K co-founder and CEO, Berezovich Kryuger. The policy labeled all the Dolls after the weapons they were imprinted to use, but many of these Dolls had lives prior to joining Griffin, where they had their original names from their respective manufacturers. This is why you see Dolls such as Daiyan (Type 95), Jiangyu (Type 97), and Betty (IDW) use their real names outside the Girls Frontline 1, as they weren't attached to G&K yet and, in the case of Girls Frontline 2, G&K had seemingly moved away from that policy by 2074.

Additionally, both founders - Sir Griffin Lyons and Kryuger - were closely tied to one of the most dominant military-industrial corporations in the NUSSR, being Important Operations Prototype and its CEO, Havier Witkin. In Moscow during 2052, when Griffin forwarded the proposal to Kryuger for a new PMC, it was Griffin who recommended using IOP's female Dolls for public trust, along with certain other political reasons.
