Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

(A Battletech Alternate Universe by Drakensis)
Oh, the power to be strong
And the wisdom to be wise
All these things will come to you in time
On this journey that you're making
There'll be answers that you'll seek
And it's you who'll climb the mountain
It's you who'll reach...

This is an idea that takes heavy inspiration from Cannonshops Kowloon series over on CBT, it's not in any way related, but I did want to acknowledge that influence from the start. This is a Fed Suns centered AU, starting at the end of the Third Succession war and covering at least the beginning...
The united States was dying. It had been dying for a long time. There had been a tumor ever since the 1820s, and the death agonies had begun with the birth of the Terran Alliance. Soon, within ten years, the Alliance itself would be done away with, and replaced with a new government. A...

Enjoy, people. I recommend some 80's synth, some LSD, and as always, stay away from ROB.
Edit Note: Original Version spoilered, the edited and slightly altered (about 100 word difference) version below. The major change is to shift one aspect of Kikyo's past slighlty different. I realized...
