OOC International Relations Conference YE 46 Planning & Discussion
- Thread starter raz
- Start date
I made a wiki event page for this.
The lack of other sub factions is not an oversight or lack of respect, but I'm just waiting to add them until characters actually appear. I added a few invitees to the standard list pulled from the last IRC article that had one based on discussions here. Feel free to add anything you feel needs to be there whenever.

Following up on the post I made earlier in this planning thread: I’ve elected not to run the Phod colony plot at this year’s IRC, due to lack of volunteers and other factors, but I may try running it again at some point in the future. I have a Hidden Sun Clan character (Toidorno Sejgui) on the YSS Resurgence. Looking forward to seeing the IRC unfold!
Great to see everyone showing up!
Just as a preemptive reminder: weapons are not allowed in any shared diplomatic space. Probably not even on the common grounds of Reikan Park. No one’s made the mistake yet but I wanted to keep it that way

“Ketsurui Yui, commander of the Star Army of Yamatai, was the first representative to enter the main conference room. Her fingers idly danced in the air where the top of her pistol would normally be. Local Yamataian security forces were the only ones allowed to carry weapons in the conference center, and inside of the actual conference chamber even she was not allowed to be armed.”
So basically only the assigned guards (YSA and Star Army soldiers specifically assigned to security plus the samurai of Ketsurui Clan members) make it past security with weapons. Not even ceremonial stuff! But all of Kyoto is a “safe” Risk Level anyway so no worries.
Sorry to double post but I asked @Yuuki if Takeda House could cater us some snacks and mentioned a few of them. If you want to include mention of cuisine from one of Yamatai's finest establishments in your own posts, here is the wonderful menu.
Reminder that Motoyoshi are more or less expected to spend every waking moment not devoted to serving the Empire to be used furthering Yugumo's prosperity, and also find time for relentless self-improvement in there.

Will be posting in this on Friday, likely - apologies for the wait, everyone! uvu
As a reminder: we have a JP coming up this Thursday at 8:30 p.m. US-Eastern time, where @Wes will have Yamataian Premier Hanako show up. After that, we'll probably continue the SP for some short time so that people who missed the JP can chime in. If you have some RP to do before that JP, I encourage you all to post it in the current IRC46 thread today or tomorrow as to not break up the flow of the scene.
Once that intro RP winds down (like it currently has) and people stop posting, we can move on to break-out sessions for more diplomacy. At that point, I will either:
Once that intro RP winds down (like it currently has) and people stop posting, we can move on to break-out sessions for more diplomacy. At that point, I will either:
- Close the initial thread and make a "Day 1/Negotiations" thread for diplomatic characters to post their JPs and SPs OR
- Write a meet-and-greet wrap up post to be a guide mark within the existing IRC thread.
First option!
Likewise, as my work schedule prevents me from attending any JPs.
6:30 for us Canadians
Well I've been eagerly awaiting your continued participation and would hate to see your contributions cease.
The upcoming JP was scheduled by Wes to introduce Hanako and maximize his time, I believe, and I'm sure he'll continue to reply in SP once the character is present.
Beyond that, there are no set JPs. However, in previous years, diplomat players have scheduled one-on-one side JPs and posted them in the active thread. The IRC is currently taking place primarily via forum posts and will continue to be this year.
I hope that offers some clarity and encouragement. Especially because the Norian presence in RP offers something truly "international" in contrast with the majority presence currently participating.
