Planet Odin IV also known as the Sovereign Union of Odin is a planet situated in the Andromenda Galaxy, it serve as a home to the Odinians whom ancestry can be traced back to mainly Earth's Scotland and Ireland funded by the National Scots and Irish Space Colonization Program (SISCP), upon inhabiting the planet for generation under the rule of the Milky Way Federation, they finally fought for their sovereignty and reformed their society into a Republic Monarchy government known as the Sovereign Union. Followed by the name, the people of Odin enjoys their sovereignty for centuries and would not give in to anybody who's about to take their sovereignty away.

As centuries has passed, the ethnic of Odinian stretches from Scottish and Irish to all sort of Terran ethnic thanks to the rapid immigration at one point of their history. However the recent immigration policy has been implemented for population control reduces both immigration and emigration rate, limiting the Scots, Irish, Welsh, Afrikaan and South American as the majority population there.

On NSS Hypatia, most Odinians would work either as a security personnel, doctor, scientist or miner and maintains their pride as an Odinian.

There's over 20 species of iompróidh on Odin IV.

Búraló: Also known as wolf, unlike those back on Terra. The Búralós were known to have poisonous bites and possess three tails. There are over 10 different species of Búraló all over the planet. They can grow as big as a horse, hence many Odinian took this as an opportunity to tame them and be able to ride them.

Rádala: Hoofed animals that wanders almost anywhere around the planet, it look almost like deers back on Terra except that they have have red-yellow striped skin and longer tails. They are commonly hunted for foods and for their tails which the druids craved for.

Gráen: Small bird animals that do not fly, they have six eyes and long wings that they would drag when they walk. Their name were given by the sound they made which sounded as though a human is shouting "Grain!". They were breed in farms and used for foods.

Eagym: Reptile species that has two pair of eyes, yellow scales and blue fins, it look almost like a crocodile and lurk around watery areas such as lochs and rivers. It normally hunts for Rádala or Gráen and rarely attacks human.

Támala: Stout trees often used by the highlanders for their fruits and yellow leaves. Their fruits; Tám, has smooth and often wet outer layer and green glowing core or seeds, they are sour. They are normally mixed with Whiskey and Milk to make a Támala Ale cocktail. While their leaves, thanks to superstitious has been believed that if minced and mixed with its juiced fruit would cure fevers and coughs.

Notä: Akin to Terra's oak trees, it has orange-green leaves and instead of a pointy end, the top of the tree curves outward into four branches. These tree covers a third of the planet and were used by the Highlanders as their source of lumbers.

Góper: A fast growing tree that has orange-green leaves with red stripes. It produces many thin branches that grow yellow coloured apple-like fruits with red dots all over them called Góp, they taste sweet and were commonly enjoyed as a traditional delicacy for the highlanders.

Housing and infrastructures

The Highlanders have a rather unique taste when it comes to their home. Those of the cities stays in skyscrapers apartments and condominiums that are connected with many networks of tunnels. Each apartments and condominiums can house up to 50,000 citizens, and each of them also have their own hospital and education department. As for other services, the Highlander developed a system called 'Hovering Service System' where as it is mentioned in the name, shops and restaurants comes in the form of hovering mobile structures, patrolling the city like buses and taxis, a civilian can summon a hover service just by using the 'Hover Service Summon Console' that can be found in almost every block of the city and input the service number. Once entered, the hover service will automatically hovers towards the summoner's location and lowers an elevator to lift the summoner up.

As for towns, it resembles those of Earth's, except for their english-style pavement roads, but their buildings are just plain futuristic houses.

Villages however are either made of metal but beautifully decorated huts or network of shallow tunnels made by early-era miners repurposing the mines into housing networks when laws of mining were tighten.



Cultures

Most of the Highlanders or Odineers are people of celtic-descent, so hence most celebration and cultural traditions were actually those of Scotland, Ireland and Wales. However, after centuries of living on a place far-away from Earth, the Highlanders has begun to adopt new traditions and celebration based on historical reasons. For example, native Highlander parents would teach their young on how to use various weaponry, and how to fight, they would also be brought into the wilderness to be trained on how to survive in dangerous situations, this is mainly due to the several harsh warfares that Odin IV has gone through, causing many civilians to be paranoid and worried as warcrimes are frequent whenever there's a war.

However, things are different in the city as most of those that stays in the city prefers to rely on their national defence service instead of fighting themselves. Those in the city would normally excel in many professional fields, ranging from commerce to research, thanks to Odin's effective education system.

With the effectiveness of the Odin's education system, most Highlanders from the city carries positive values and rarely resolves to violence, but this works the opposite for those from the rural areas such as villages or the Eastern Mountains, excluding Darling City where crime rates are very high.

Despite the monarch as their government, the society of Odin IV are still considered to be modern and are most likely to preserves human's rights. However, there are still crimes that warrants capital punishments ranging from permanent imprisonment to public executions. The Highlanders feared and understands public executions the most as the monarch favours it, believing that it would keep civilians in line, despise such punishment, very few Highlanders view it as an act of tyranny as most of the prisoners to be executed are war criminals or severe capital offender.

Public executions being carried out varies on situations, if the planet or capital is under marshal law, firing squads or summary point-blank executions will be used. Otherwise, the prisoner(s) would be paraded through the capital of Odin IV, McKalley Ciy and finally stops at the city square. From there, the prisoner(s) would be given a chance to confess their crime to the public while doing so will give them the privilege of a very quick death, if not, the high-magistrate will read out the charges and their crime, if this were to happen, the prisoner(s) will have to undergo a more painful process of death. First, they will be flogged for 30 times, then the executioners will begin by stripping their skin with a saw and pour salts all over it, they would then be given a several jolts of non-lethal electrocution before the executioners finally gives them the choice of either be hanged or beheaded, if the prisoner remains silent, the public gets to cast their vote for the death of the prisoner. If hanged, the body will be left in the city's square for one-week before finally being taken down for cremation, if beheaded, the head will be put on display inside a glass tank for a week as well.

To look at a more brighter side of the Highlander cultures, every year, a Búraló racing competition will be held where hundreds of Highlanders that has the ability to ride a tamed Búraló would race from Eastern Moutains to McKalley City (A 900km journey), where the winner would be gifted with an energy claymore, 90,000 credits, a golden saddle and a chance to compete with other riders to earn the title of Búraló Knight.

The Highlanders also favour fishing, every month in every recognised loch, an event called the Valhalla Longboat Race would be held that allows participants to rent or built their own traditional viking longboats and launch it into the loch, they must row the boat to the end of the loch while fishing for Gèshes only with two fishing rods, the longboat with the highest catch wins, a tie-breaker normally require one representative of each neck-to-neck boaters to dive into the loch and catch one Gèsh with their bare hands and the first one that makes it back ashore with a Gèsh wins. The prizes are 60,000 credits, a modern yacht and a chance to compete with other first prize winners to win one light vessel from the Sovereign Union.

Military

Odin IV have a moderate military power, their first regiment was established at 2395 AD, using the remnants of the colonists militia. Orbital manufacturing plants were launched in 2397 AD in an effort to decrease pollution to the planet's environment.

The standard combat gear for an Odin IV Royal Infantry and Sovereign Union soldiers would be a white hide cape, a green beret, white utility uniform, a kilt-style armor vest, C-20R Sub-machine gun or their own model of K-35 Semi Automatic rifle, a G18 pistol and occasionally a Scottish claymore.


Odin IV's Royal Navy were established at the same time as the establishment of Odin IV Royal Infantry, reconstructing old trade vessels into combat vessels

There's one unsorted branch with only one batallion, The Royal Guards. They are working more closely to the Palace, mainly protecting the Queen. They are well-trained soldiers, armed with a domestically made semi-automatic rifle Kenzy Mk.I, Glock.18 and nothing more, their uniform resembles a traditional Scottish dress; kilts, except that there's no plaid nor tartan but a dull light green on it.

However, at 2567 AD, under the decree of Archduke Daniel Norgan, the Sovereign Union undergoes a military revolution, and hence the Sovereign Union's Aerotrooper were born and the Odin IV Royal Infantry were rebranded as Sovereign Union Mobile Infantry

Sovereign Union Naval Fleet

Most combat vessels of the Sovereign Union was actually freighters and trading ships being retooled for fighting purpose. Upon launched, they will normally undergo a 10-30 slow orbiting patrol around the planet before docking again for resupplying purpose. Odinians from his branch were trained with extended engineering and commanding skills as well as EVA combat but receive very little weapon training.


Sovereign Union Aerotrooper

The Sovereign Union Aerotrooper are well trained soldiers that are normally stationed on ships, space-stations or asteroid outposts similarly to the marinens. Their purpose would be to fight and to defend their posts so that the navy personnel wouldn't have to abandon their posts and risk getting killed. They specialize in boarding enemy vessels and EVA combats. The corps however was recently established and several platoons from the Royal Division were randomly selected to be rushed into immediate training and branch transfer for the marine corps. The marines were given access for Odin's Loki-Class Mech that specializes in anti-personnel battle and EVA combat. Odinians from this branch were trained with martial arts, extended weapon training, EVA combat training and has very high discipline.


Sovereign Union Mobile Infantry

The Sovereign Union Mobile Infantry are basically the army of Odin IV and the Sovereign Union, they are normally stationed on planetary outposts and bases. They were used for planetary ground defense or ground invasion forces. They were given access to use the Vegas-Class Mech that specializes in anti-personnel and armor, and the Raider-Class Mech that specializes in anti-air. Odinians from this branch were trained to use various type of weapons and mechs.

Planetary Project

Sovereign Union Star Base Zertone

  • ~ Proposed by Doctor Jennifer Wilburn, an aerospace professor and economic analysts from the University of Darling, Darling City. This project aims at the construction and launching of Star Base Zertone to the orbit of planet Odin IV. The estimated completion and launch date for the Starbase would be at 2573 AD. The construction will be carried out by construction frigates and silicon-based lifeforms. The Highlanders defined starbase as a multi-purposed space hub that are heavily-armed and defended. It serves as both a repairing and docking station for both civilian or military class space vessels. The starbase would be divided into the following sectors:
  • Trading hubs and way-station for civilian vessels
  • Main naval defence garrison and secondary naval defence commands and coordination
  • Diplomatic hubs and service station
  • Media & entertainment broadcast station
  • Orbital satellite base
  • Asteroid Mining Operation
The estimated cost for the project including the indirect labours and resources totals up to 9.4billion credits. Funding of the projects comes mainly from the government's revenue and investment funds from private agricultural conglomerates on the planet.

So you want to create an Odinian character?

Appearances

Odinian are generally human and rarely xenos, and even if they're xenos they would be Tajarans and no other.

Characteristics

*~Odinians are very proud people, this is most likely because of their planetary timeline which makes up a good history.
*~They are extremely patriotic and loyal to their home and High King/Queen and if their homes or the royals were threatened by foreign forces (e.g Nanotrasen)they would fight the aggressors to their death. But this does not stop them from working with Nanotrasen or even serve with Nanotrasen armed force, but as stated, if their home's under danger even from the organisation they are working with, they will immediately switch side unless they work with the NTIA.
*~Odinians are introverted when they are around Non-Odinian individuals, it's hard for them to make new friends but surprisingly easy for them to make enemies.
*~Regardless of their background, and Odinian can be easily irritated if one were to talk bad about their home planet or ancestors and would normally burst into rage until the other side apologizes.
*~Odinians always speak in accent and Odinian slang e.g "Aye", "Nothin'", "Git oot!" and etc. ( Do Not confuse with Odinian dialect )
*~Odinians can easily get along well with a fellow Odinian.
*~Odinians are either an atheist, Christian, Nar-sie cultist or a follower of Kraedurism, unless you're a Tajaran in which case you could remain worshiping Mesa and that other sun.
*~Odinians only enjoy whiskey-based cocktails and drinks.
*~Odinians can be extremely loyal to their superiors, e.g HoS, CMO, QM and etc, even if they're not Odinian, but in the case of them talking trash about Odin or the Odinian's ancestors or even questioning the Odinian loyalty to Odin IV, the said Odinian would lose their loyalty to the said superior staff.
*~Despite having an accent, an Odinian would always speak clearly enough for a normal being to understand. (It means you better type properly, capitalize your first letter of a sentence or name and spell properly!)
*~Odinians are strongly against feminism, homophobia and racism.
*~Odinians security officer can be generally brutal when engaging but would remain highly disciplined.
*~Odinians scientists prefers plasma research as they enjoy playing with explosives. (Do not use this as an excuse to grief!)
*~Odinians doctors only knows field medicine, surgery, how to operate a sleeper or cryogenic chamber and nothing more. They lack knowledge about chemistry, genetics and virology. This is due to controlled education system on Odin IV.
*~Despite lack of educations, Odinians are known to be wise in many aspects and remain with rational mentality.
