2Guys, I have a question regarding Fluff`s universe: who is in charge of it? Is it the Emperor, the boss of Vikna? Is it Ayn`s dad? Is it Loki who is a demigod? Who actually rules this place?

9Radoslav Kovsai is the Emperor while Sabir (Ayn`s dad) is "just" a king. However, are they even part of the same Empire? Does Sabir belong to the same culture? He is quite obviously not a member of Kovsai`s species.

17A genuine story set in Fluff-Kevlar`s universe. A well written story, not just one which is only focused on mindless fucking. Have a great story and just have some sex in between. That would be awesome. I said it 20 years ago and I will say it now again: it is time for furry creators to create great fantasy stories and characters. "Dreamkeepers" showed what creators of the fandom can create if they are willing to.

23it'll be quite the day when fluff finally starts his big sci-fi comic. Man might be slow to draw things but fuck do they ever come out good, I can only hope said comic will be mostly SFW as I've never been one for furry porn

30Emperor Radoslav Kovsai rules over the Katrician Empire. It's one of the bigger ones at approximately 2.5k systems, noted for its stability and history. Vikna, Nytro, ARA, etc. all serve Katric.
31//Revision: Zofie and Nytro are from Liertz, which is a completely separate sovereign.
32
33While Sabir is the King of Siania, he isn't the ruler. Kesis is the official ruler of Siania, and Ayn is the official heiress. Siania's notable as one of the galaxy's oldest empires, from which Katric liberated itself. They seem to be pretty good allies, given their conflict took place some 20,000 years ago.
34
35Both are member states of the Grand Empire, which is kinda like a hybrid of the United Nations and the Galactic Republic. While the UN is more a discussion forum, the Grand Empire is like a massive legislative branch - it even has its own military force. The Grand Emperor is elected and there's an absolute fuckload of representatives. It functions on the Grand Emperor having the best intentions for the galaxy.

38Good news, then. IIRC Fluff mentioned here that the main story comic will be plot/action/etc. focused, with NSFW supplementals as side pieces.

56First of all, LorePerson, it's really awesome that you, and others, have retained so much. Honestly I figured a lot of people wouldn't bother to remember all this. And secondly, I feel bad, since so much of it is either scattered everywhere, out-of-date, or in need of a rework. I see that people are hungry for neat, interesting story bits, and I keep backtracking. A lot of my stuff needs reworking, mostly outfits, weapons, a few locations, and ships. Not everything, but my story used to be much, MUCH more fantasy-based, and now I'd say I'm more determined to give it a solid 25% fantasy, 75% scifi vibe. No more angels/demons type stuff, more basis in tech than magic, so a few weapons and things need to reflect that. Just an overall shift. I've never been more sure of something before, and I'm glad in one sense, that I hadn't started the story yet or else this shift would be much harder to do, haha.

60Short answer, the Grand Empire is closest thing to a 'ruler' but they're much like a UN. Grand Emperor Yuka (chinchilla i have a few doodles of around) is the ruler. Radoslav is Emperor of Katric, the country of ARA/Vikna. Kesis is Queen of Siania, country of Ayn/family. Yet-unnamed-OC is the leader of Liertz, the country of Nytro/Zofie.

68This and all the comments below it...thank you. Even anon support on u18 can be a good help. I read all of them. It means a lot to hear these things, and made me smile. Normally I'm fine, I don't 'break down' over my own stuff a lot, but it does happen. Probably to all artists, at least once in a while. Stuff like this helps the bounce back. While all the support and comments are great, sometimes self-doubt is just unavoidable...but in my experience, it's always resulted in improvement, so I just gotta remember that.

79Bollocks, Liertz is separate? Dammit, I thought it was a system. I've gotta reorganize some shit.
80Katric's security clearances must be fucking crazy with all these foreign agents casually hanging around.

94I really hope you plan to have many of these NSFW side stories. What would make it really good is if the NSFW stuff was more tied in to your main story. Such as between two events some of the characters decide to have sex like a mini-filler before they do the next thing. Except this kind of filler is the best type.

107I'd assume they're connected, but in the sense that you wouldn't be missing anything huge if you don't see them. Like, the normal comic gets the closed-door implication and the addon just spells it out.
108Something fun, like "Here's what hot things Nytro and Ayn were doing in the break room while Vikna got shot and almost bled to death in ARA's arms, proving robots can contract PTSD".
109
110Non-canon sketches will probably still be more common than short comics, given the canon characters are a little less promiscuous by nature. Except Ayn.
111
112>>1571045
113Nah, I looked into it further.
114Initially I thought Liertz was a country on Serko, Katric's capital.
115Looks more like it's a separate German styled sovereign, and just about as old as Siania and Katric. They've got some degree of an alliance.
116
117There's a few other sovereigns, but not many have been mentioned in much detail aside from the Vandalai and a few unnamed groups of self-aware robots.
118
119Now I just need to figure out where in the FUCK Kan Rein and the Tower are.

143I could of sworn the Tower was on Katric. Its the HQ of Kaltag (which I keep wanting to call Keltec, which is a completely different company), so I figured it'd be on the capital world. But I'm assuming Kan Rein is it from your wording? Or is that something/one separate? I didn't see it stated outright anywhere. Only location given is a general galactic region in Warning's initial break down of the Big 5 AI's (Feb 23 2017.) Maybe we can get it in an Ask ARA question at some point, if/when that picks back up :D
144
145In my scan of the AAS archive, I can see what Fluff means by needing an update. The one that stood out was the Queendom of Siania (Ayn's area) has 2000, with most having at least 1 habitable planets, but only 28 billion population (Nov 13 2016.) That seemed low to me given that our dirtball has ~7.5 billion on it alone. But that might be the Star Wars effect as they tended to have low pop numbers on their planets as well, but I kind of figured nearly 40-50 straight years of galactic war of varying intensity had something to do with that.

151Kan Rein City is the capital of the homeworld Serko.
152Now, I'm a bit lost on who does it belong to because Serko is the homeworld of Siania, Katric and Liertz (and several lesser nations)
153
154My guess would be Liertz but who knows
155
156The Tower is indeed located on Katrik (and in the galaxy sector of the same name)
157Katrik is also where the government resides, including our favorite femboy

165Right, let's do one of these again. Sorry in advance.
166
167The Tower was mentioned as being in...the Tower. As in, one of the branches of the galaxy. It's pinpointed closer towards the galactic core, while Katric's capital (?) is shown farther to the south.
168It's mentioned that many wars have been fought over the tower due to its strategic position and technological supremacy, functioning as a space elevator.
169One picture shows it in the background of Vikna's apartment and some implications lead me to believe it could be on the capital, given ARA's two stations are either there or on the Imperial flagship - both at the capital. There's a lot of conflicting information.
170
171I'm assuming it's still just Kaltag's headquarters, and that the Emperor's residence, Katrician Senate and Military Headquarters are separate locations.
172As for Kan Rein, I have no idea where the hell it is. It's either in Liertz or Katric, and both of these have very different implications, given Nytro and Zofie's proximity to Katrician high-level personnel and black projects.
173I'm pretty sure I've been mistaking Serko for Katric's capital as well, though that seems to be me confusing homeworld and capital as just about all sapient life originated on Serko.
174Honestly, I think this one needs to be cleared up a bit more.
175
176Regarding population numbers, Star Wars is an interesting example. Most of the planets function similarily to cities or major stopping points rather than entire planets, and this is shown through low population numbers and relatively small battles and blockades.
177Plenty of major populations have up to a few billion with smaller ones varying between several million. There's a few notable outliers, such as Scarif being composed entirely of military personnel and Coruscant being a Ecumenopolis at 1 TRILLION.
178On an even larger scale, The Galactic Republic at its peak would have had a population of roughly 100 quadrillion and during the Clone Wars the Confederacy of Independent Systems reached a high of around 1/10th that number. Attached is a small table with a few notable planets listed.
179
180In the context of Rishan, CyberInk's page on the galaxy (last updated in 2009) mentions the total number of stars at approximately 380-385 billion, with a population of approximately 73.3 trillion. The average system population lists at 4 billion, with the lowest at 40 million and the highest at 38 billion.
181I believe it's safe to say Siania may just be more sparesly populated. Obviously a certain amount of planets would be barren and uninhabitable, and it's very possible a large amount of systems have no habitable planets and are secured through political claims and military presence. Alternatively, the population could be spread out across the territory, but with very low numbers similar to Star Wars.

196I have done, as well as AskARA, various tumblr stuff, the wikidot and comments posted here. Unfortunately a lot of the information can contradict itself due to constant retcons and the fact all of this is preliminary and the actual story is still yet to begin. Fluff's most recent post here actually mentioned outdated information, changes and the switch from fantasy towards full sci-fi and space opera.
197
198Honestly, this is just one of those things that has to be pinned and answered properly later. I'm not sure a solid answer exists yet.
