Public Call for Operation Team Assembly
'Thunderous Voices'
As the holo-display flickers into life it reveals Krixxus' visage, even in the cyan blue of the projector the thick hood of his Apprentice robes casts his face half in shadow - his red eyes smouldering out from the shadows and jaw set into his usual cold and determined expression.

"Previously, a strike team caused a riot at a prisoner of war camp on the planet of Angor. Those who could not be rescued were armed so that they might fight another day. Many have since died, but those that survive are a thorn in the side of the local PDF. A former Imperial Private by the name Teke Jampest has emerged as a figurehead of these survivors, skilled in oration he rallies the separate groups and sympathetic locals to their cause. Unfortunately for Teke, his location has been leaked to the local PDF and they deploy to put an end to his holorecordings. Deploy to Angor, destroy the PDF column and recruit Teke for our own purposes."

The hologram ceased, the remainder of the brief displaying.

Location: Angor
OOC Location: Anywhere that seems like a rebel camp
Objectives: The Operation has one two Primary Objectives and one secondary
Primary Objective I - Destroy the PDF security column
Primary Objective II - Recover Teke alive
Secondary Objective: Re supply the Imperial insurrectionists

Timeframe: The Operation must be completed within one month of team assembly

Party Size: It is recommended that a size of four to five, including GM, would be suitable for this mission.
Rewards: Rewards can be negotiated in person.
Reminder: Assets are not to be earned or taken in operations; they are not meant to be for accumulating stuff. Maybe some money and a few trophies might be gained, but never anything large.

Public Call for Operation Team Assembly

*The holo-image came to life, showing Agran, his hood lowered, the sharp facial features visible, scarred by the conflicts of war and no longer marked solely by freckles against pale skin. His stance was disciplined, poised and tempered- yet there was a distinct flame behind his Dark-side tainted orange irides that burned with passion. He stood in silence for a brief moment before speaking, his tone strict yet purposeful.*

"The Planet of Ferron continues to present opportunities for development, though they do not come without some resistance.

A sub-glacial cave system has been identified not far from one of the planet’s mining settlements. Its depth and natural insulation make it a viable candidate for the establishment of a facility, however the area has been fully claimed by wildlife. Miners stationed nearby actively avoid it following a series of formerly unexplained disappearances. Reports consistently describe movement beneath the ice and unfamiliar sounds echoing through the caverns, suggesting an active presence within. Imperial preliminary scans have since confirmed that indigenous lifeforms have established themselves throughout the system, though their form remains unknown.

Your task is as simple as it is straightforward: navigate to the site through the polar conditions and locate the entrance to the cave system. Once inside, eliminate any hostile presence and ensure the area is secure. Then plant an Imperial beacon to formally mark the location so it can be readily identified and claimed for subsequent development.

Go and bring glory to the Empire."

*With that the hologram would flicker and then fade from view. Leaving the viewer able to access the rest of the information provided.*

Location: Ferron

OOC Location: Ilum / Hoth

Objectives: 

Primary Objective I: Eliminate the local wild-life.

Primary Objective II: Plant an Imperial beacon to mark the location. 

Secondary Objective I: Study the terrain and environment to ensure there are no critical flaws.

Time Frame: To be completed within a Month from initial team assembly
Estimated Party Size: 2-4
Rewards: Acolytes can receive a lesson in a core force power. Imperials, Apprentices and above's potential rewards can be discussed upon its conclusion.

Reminder: Assets are NOT to be earned or taken in these, they are not meant to be for accumulating stuff. Maybe some money and little trophies might be gained but never anything large.

"A suitable opportunity has presented itself. A civilian transport vessel, designated 'The Dependable', has been identified operating along predictable routes to and from Ord Trasi. Its purpose is mundane- supply transport for hygiene and hospitality sectors, and that is precisely why it has both drawn our attention as well as remained largerly unguarded, bar for the expected troops within.

We will exploit the oversight.

This is to be a precise strike- a boarding maneuver executed within a limited window that will ensure no unnecessary attention will be drawn to our actions. The vessel is to be seized intact, its structure preserved, its systems left operational. Recklessness will not be tolerated. The Strategic Espionage Division's personnel will ensure the ship will comply to our needs, dealing with tracking devices and correlated arrangements.

This operation falls under Advancement’s authority first-most. As such, its execution will see priority granted to those within our Sphere.

Added info: This operation is marked as DEADLY meaning an increased chance of character maiming or even death.
Objectives: 
Primary Objective I: Clean out the pirate base.
Primary Objective II: Confirm the existance of a Sithspawn or any other source of Dark Side energy. 
Secondary Objective I: Seize any loot for redistribution.
Time Frame: A month from now (14/05/2026)
Estimated Party Size: 4-5
Reminder: Assets are NOT to be earned or taken in these, they are not meant to be for accumulating stuff. Maybe some money and little trophies might be gained but never anything large.

Overview

Operation Nightwell is the establishment of a Resurgence-controlled water infrastructure network on Alsolun, centered on purification, distribution, and long-term administrative control.

The initiative is not limited to provision. It is designed to structure access, regulate flow, and ensure dependency across both military and civilian sectors.

Resurgence operates as the sole executing authority.


Primary Sites

Plant Keshan 
A garrison-oriented purification plant supplying military installations and nearby settlements. 
Primary function is stability and sustained operational output.

Plant Vehlor 
A civilian-facing facility positioned near a central township. 
Serves as both a production site and a visible demonstration of Resurgence capability.

Arthis Distribution Hub 
Central node for storage, routing, and export of surplus. 
All large-scale distribution is coordinated through this location.


Operational Framework
  • Municipal water quotas will be initially subsidized to establish compliance and goodwill
  • Contracts with local forces will provide baseline revenue and demand stability
  • Local labor and short-term contracts will be used to integrate merchants and guilds into the system
  • Distribution routes and access points will be centralized and monitored
  • All outward-facing efforts will reinforce the narrative of restoration and stability


OOC

Operation Nightwell is a Resurgence led, doctrinal overseen operation focused on establishing controlled water infrastructure on Alsolun.

The operation will primarily be driven by members of Resurgence and Doctrine, alongside Xulia.
  • Resurgence is responsible for all physical aspects of the initiative. Infrastructure, logistics, and public rollout
  • Doctrine seeks to use this initiative to twist the population towards a pro imperial view through various means.

Participants outside of these groups are welcome to contribute in ways they believe to be useful, provided their efforts support the operation’s overall direction and objectives.

The operation remains initiative-driven, encouraging proactive involvement and independent problem-solving.



Objective

Operation Nightwell is not considered complete when infrastructure is established.

It is complete when:
  • Access to water is fully regulated
  • Distribution is dependent on Resurgence systems

]]> <![CDATA[((OOC)) What are Operations?]]> https://www.horuset.com/showthread.php?tid=558 Fri, 28 Apr 2023 21:14:53 +0000 Trakaton Kalkoran]]> https://www.horuset.com/showthread.php?tid=558 Operations; an explanation

An Introduction

In an effort to both inspire more free roleplay between members as well as create systems in which members stimulate their own roleplay to allow officers to run slightly fewer (Say 2-3 a week) events but far more interesting ones that are more inclusive and enjoyable for everyone; we have found a new event style that we hope should do both of these things. With many thank yous to M'alacor and Kiyosa, who are the original creators of this idea and graciously allowed us to use it, we present Operations - a new event style for a modern guild.

What is an Operation ICly?

Our resident Darth, as well as our Lords of the Sith and even the Sith themselves, all have vast workloads that span the entire Empire as they go about their responsibility in pressing forward our eternal task of wiping the Jedi and the Republic from the face of the galaxy. However, they are but single beings and even with the aid of apprentices to their skill many find they simply cannot cover every task presented and still focus on their own self. Because of this they have started (Or will start) to produce missions to post on the Horuset servers that agents of our will (Be it Imperial or Sith) are capable of signing up for and then carrying out. Once a team is assembled here they will then meet in person and organise when they will strike out to complete their task. Of course all missions are time sensitive, so, be sure to get all of this done before the deadline or face the wrath of the operation giver!

What is an Operation OOCly?

An operation is a new event style which passes the torch of GMing everything from us (Your officers and sub-officers) to you (The members) as well. What we will do is alongside fully GMed and planned events that you know and love, we will also be generating these missions which you guys will then sign up for and once an acceptable team size is assembled it will be then down to you to organise when and how before carrying out your plan. In this way we hope you guys do three things; firstly that you RP outside of any small cliques a little more, secondly that you guys gain the skills needed to inspire your own RP and finally that you guys keep looking at and using this site as well as just in game. Overall we feel this will give you a new lease of life in RP as well as us more time to focus on the guild itself instead of worrying that we need to have lots of events everyday.

Yes, but how do I do an Operation?

I'm glad you asked, because right now I am going to go through - step by step - exactly how one would sign up for and then take part in an Operation.

Finding an Operation: So, right here in the Ongoing Operations section, there will be a number of threads (That number will be constantly changing) which will have on them information ICly about what the Operation is. An intro into the story behind the event, the details of the IC location this Operation will be set as well as OOC info of the ingame location to be used and the area that can be accessed. Alongside this the primary and secondary objectives will be outlined and then a time limit will be given as well as a party size limit. Some nice operation givers might even give you IC connections to support you can call in. With all of that info you (The players) will decide if your character is going to enlist in that Operation and, if so, you will post an IC reply to the thread doing so. Not much is needed here, a basic holo recorded message accepting the call to arms is just fine. However, what you will also include is whether you (OOCly) would be willing to GM this operation. This does not mean you would be unable to be there ICly, all it does is tell the rest of the party forming who would like to be the GM for that operation.

Operations will also be listed in the hh-operations channel in the server.

Making the Party: So you've signed up to an operation and even said you would GM it, that's great! Your job now is kind of to wait, of course you are fully IC aware of the Operation you just signed up for so you can reference it in RP to your heart's content, but before you can go and do it you want a party to form on the Operation thread. But, once it does, you will have a list of people you will be working with as well as a list of people who would happily GM. It is then all down to you. Make a group chat and discuss between one another who should GM it. Having a meeting about it IC is also encouraged, as it allows for interactions and rp generation beforehand.

Operation Limit: To ensure there is space for everyone to go on operations, every player can only be signed up for 2 operations at a time. This can be split between 2 characters so each can be signed up for 1. Once an operation is marked as completed, that frees up a slot. Your character can of course withdraw from an operation to free up a lot, but we encourage people to consider what ops they want to sign up for.

Running the Operation: And go you must! Off to that location ICly, where - overseen by your GM - you try and complete the task to the best of your ability and complete all the objectives you want to. The GM themselves will be more than welcome to contact the Operation giver to get some pointers and ideas, but the main idea is this event is Gmed by you guys for you guys. That being said, we include a GM because these operations will not be a walk in the park. People can get wounded, badly, as well as missions being failed. Accept the good with the bad and love the journey.

After the Operation: Whether it went perfectly and your crack team of experts pulled off the Operation without a hitch, or one of you tried to trip up another which hurled the whole Operation to the dogs and now you are looking at a mission failed as well as missing a finger and a foot, it doesn't matter because you report back ICly to the person who gave you the Operation. From there, it's all IC because OOCly you just finished the Operation. You pat each other on the back and we hope you'll be looking to do another Operation again soon.

But what about...?

I know, I know, you almost certainly have questions and if you have any at all please bring them to any of the Officers and we will elaborate to you exactly how it works. That being said here is some questions answered that I could think off the top of my head.

Can an acolyte sign up to an Operation? Of course, they are just as eligible as anybody else. The resourceful acolyte might even be granted temporary access to stuff they otherwise aren't allowed, but that is dependent on the mission and the mission leader IC.

What if I never want to GM? There is no requirement for you to ever be a GM in these events, we will not be counting the number of times you GM to the number of times you don't. But, I think everyone would be deeply saddened if you just decided from the get go that you never would. These tasks are for small teams and the perfect place for anybody to start, practice or just enjoy, GMing an event. As stated earlier it does not mean you can't be there as well ICly taking part, it just means you are taking the responsibility of running the event for others.

In my own opinion GMing, whilst harder than just attending, is deeply satisfying as you get to greatly improve your own writing as well as demonstrate a fantastic commitment to helping our community run and develop some real independence and confidence that allows for a greater depth and breadth of roleplay outside of the Operations. As well as this it allows you to better understand what we go through when we GM the much larger events so that we never get a situation where you misunderstand or we badly portray what is going on.

I want to GM but I am scared to, what do I do? Talk to someone. It is great that you want to GM, and we love that, but if you aren't sure how we have a team of fantastic officers, sub-officers and members all who have a wild variation of GM experience who can give you pointers as well as tricks to make your GMing top notch. But don't worry, we all start rusty, it is a new experience and skill so don't be afraid to make a mistake. It is how we learn.

You can also open a ticket, and that will allow the officer team who all are experienced with gming to help out!

I still don't really get it. I'm so confused. Not a question, but, a valid point nonetheless. The answer is come and talk to us, we are happy to do a step by step explanation using screen share and voice explanations to run you through how this will work. During the Operation itself? You have your GM so you'll have guidance there to look to.

Can Imperials mix and match with Sith? Of course they can. Our Imperials, whilst part of the machine of the Imperial military forces, are also capable of being placed on missions as one off jobs. They will be (In the eyes of the Operation giver) a tool who is capable of very different things which can provide a great dynamic. Going up against a force sensitive? That Imperial is going to blend in, in the force, to the force sensitives lackeys whereas Sith will stick out like a sore thumb. Need to splice a computer or conduct field medic work? I know some can't, I doubt many Sith can yet that is bread and butter work for some Imperials. Everybody is equally valuable.

Who can make Operations? In theory everybody can make an Operation, however, these posts are IC and so an acolyte or low ranking Imperial will likely not get any attention since they are not very important. However, if you OOCly want to make an OPS - I encourage you to do so - then it also means you have the IC fun of trying to perhaps find a patron to support the Operation ICly and thus add to the authority of what you post. If you do want to make an Operation, then I will post the BBcode skeleton that has fast become our general aesthetic.


Spoiler: BBcode
A final word

Now, whilst we trust and love each and every one of you, there is one final point I must go over and that is etiquette. We are putting our trust in you, as members, to run these Operations and manage yourselves because you have earned that trust. We believe you to be respectful, intelligent and good people. However, we will still be overseeing these by getting feedback and reviews. If we find that people are griefing their GMs, abusing them or just in general being disrespectful in these events then we will act with the fiery vengeance that our rank affords us. There will be no excuses. Just because your GM might be a member like you, they are THE authority in the event and their word is final on outcomes etc. Don't like a decision? That's fine, have an open and friendly conversation, but do not question every bad thing that happens and respect that if your GM does not change their mind then you must accept it.

Conversely, if you feel your GM is totally mishandling your event to a point that you and your party are unrealistically in danger of things like character death or that there is a mishandling of what you are facing then bring this to an officer and we will step in to resolve this. But, do not bring us every single gripe. We don't care that unfortunately you didn't manage to shoot someone one time, we care if your GM decides that you got shot between the eyes the moment you walk around a corner and then tell you your character is dead.


We hope you enjoyed this explanation and see you taking part in these Operations right away, remember, any questions at all can be brought to the officers! Finally please try not to host your Operations on the days of other events, we understand people are busy but most of the week is dedicated to free RP and we give plenty of time to complete them. We want as many people attending guild events as possible!]]> Operations; an explanation

You have your GM so you'll have guidance there to look to.

Can Imperials mix and match with Sith? Of course they can. Our Imperials, whilst part of the machine of the Imperial military forces, are also capable of being placed on missions as one off jobs. They will be (In the eyes of the Operation giver) a tool who is capable of very different things which can provide a great dynamic. Going up against a force sensitive? That Imperial is going to blend in, in the force, to the force sensitives lackeys whereas Sith will stick out like a sore thumb. Need to splice a computer or conduct field medic work? I know some can't, I doubt many Sith can yet that is bread and butter work for some Imperials. Everybody is equally valuable.

Who can make Operations? In theory everybody can make an Operation, however, these posts are IC and so an acolyte or low ranking Imperial will likely not get any attention since they are not very important. However, if you OOCly want to make an OPS - I encourage you to do so - then it also means you have the IC fun of trying to perhaps find a patron to support the Operation ICly and thus add to the authority of what you post. If you do want to make an Operation, then I will post the BBcode skeleton that has fast become our general aesthetic.


Spoiler: BBcode
A final word

Now, whilst we trust and love each and every one of you, there is one final point I must go over and that is etiquette. We are putting our trust in you, as members, to run these Operations and manage yourselves because you have earned that trust. We believe you to be respectful, intelligent and good people. However, we will still be overseeing these by getting feedback and reviews. If we find that people are griefing their GMs, abusing them or just in general being disrespectful in these events then we will act with the fiery vengeance that our rank affords us. There will be no excuses. Just because your GM might be a member like you, they are THE authority in the event and their word is final on outcomes etc. Don't like a decision? That's fine, have an open and friendly conversation, but do not question every bad thing that happens and respect that if your GM does not change their mind then you must accept it.

Conversely, if you feel your GM is totally mishandling your event to a point that you and your party are unrealistically in danger of things like character death or that there is a mishandling of what you are facing then bring this to an officer and we will step in to resolve this. But, do not bring us every single gripe. We don't care that unfortunately you didn't manage to shoot someone one time, we care if your GM decides that you got shot between the eyes the moment you walk around a corner and then tell you your character is dead.


We hope you enjoyed this explanation and see you taking part in these Operations right away, remember, any questions at all can be brought to the officers! Finally please try not to host your Operations on the days of other events, we understand people are busy but most of the week is dedicated to free RP and we give plenty of time to complete them. We want as many people attending guild events as possible!]]>
