Nomad Separatists - Manny Calavera - 10-30-2016
Has anyone thought of making a nomad separatists faction? Ones that do not want to fight with the human's anymore and wish to develop good relations?

Wasn't this tried before?

The closest thing to it would be the Vagrants, as they wish to have good relations to the children of Ishmael. Aside from that, there are individuals that have lived with humans, like Kessereya Reena (ship) and Sans Valeur (incubus).

But that doesn't stop others from having different opinions. Can't some decide that they are tired of fighting? Defections happens all the time with humans, why can't it happen with nomads?

Er- They are a mindshare kind of race. AKA they all think the same thoughts. No difference of opinion within Squidland.
Humans are of the individual mind. Nomads are all of one great hivemind. All thoughts are shared and it is even built into their reasoning(because they are machines) that the Humans are the enemy.

The thing is, that's all open for interpretation and to be fleshed out. While the mindshare works basically as something unifying, the playerbase is unable to work that way, which causes nomads to be individual, and that's good, if you ask me, since it's still a roleplay server. There is enough space for special snowflakes, just like in real life, as long as it doesn't start with a mary sue character.
Want human-hugging nomads? Find a _very_ good reason why and try and make it a faction. However, the closest thing really would be nomads interacting with Wild, believers and nomad supporters. The made-up lore gives the Maltese people a special connection to the nomads, as they use cardamine - a substance that is also naturally produced by nomads (incubi) in small amounts. There are also things like the Church of Sirius, also based on Malta, and the Commune Project, and there are some individuals.
However, transparency is the most important thing about it. People want to know why and people want to make it sense. Aside from that, some people will always be shidders. ;3
