Appreciating the interest in the Aoi Iseijin, and resurrecting the Kusari Wild, let me tell you a little story and then you can do some brain thinking in your mind space.
First of all, let me say, the Iseijin made a hell of a lot of mistakes, and 100% of them were totally my fault. 4.85 was cramping to the Iseijin, and when we couldn't have small fixes to get us set straight, I cheated and worked through loophole after loophole to ensure we had stuff to do. Yeah, it was wrong. Sorry.
About the story...
The Hanta-Iseijin collapsed at the end of 4.85 as it slipped about the Wild in Kusari and the KNF and KPT investigations cut the foundations of the group. Kusari was going to march in and wipe out the Aoi Iseijin, starting with destroying the Arch.
Unfortunately, the war with Gallia beckoned, and Kusari couldn't get enough forces together to overwhelm and destroy the Iseijin, so the Arch remained, and the Iseijin inside it fought a bloody war with the KNF forces, and KPT specialists available.
Now there is no Hanta-Iseijin, no undercover infected wing of KNF. Just overt, angry Wild. While there are infected in hiding in Kusari, they are being rooted out fairly regularly, so they are careful to not be caught at all. No undercover Kusari Wild.
The Arch (Heaven's Gate) is a self-sustaining fortress and the KNF aren''t getting the Iseijin out any time soon.
In lore, to date, none of the KNF, KPT or KSP high commands have any infected or Wild-controlled personnel, neither does the direct Kusari Government.
Sorry, but it is, no offense. Nice try though, keep that passion and listen up, your dream isn't unattainable.
So you're interested in Kusari Wild? Cool.
First of all, take it up with the leader of the Das Wilde. They own the ID, and you won't get anything if you don't get their approval.
Secondly, and by no means any less important than the first, stick to the established roleplay and lore. The Wild on the Arch are fighting a bloody battle with the KNF, BD and Order, no undercover business.
Thirdly, make it work this time, learn from my mistakes, don't be the bad person I was.
Here's how it'll play ingame:
Following the current tech chart for the Wild ID (Using only Nomad, Wild, Civvy/KuCivvy and Kusari Lawful) using ships with ONLY the Wild ID, you could make a faction.
It would be the same as the Das Wilde, but Kusari-based. You'd overtly and sneakily blow stuff up, steal and assassinate as the Das Wilde do, only in Kusari.
This is the only way I can see you making this happen.
If you need advice, help or whatever, I'm always available on Skype, good luck making this once-awesome (ignoring the silly) faction, amazing again.
If this is an idea that people are going to go through with, I'd like to get a something straight :
If any lore that's been written by Akura, myself or any other Aoi Iseijin member gets used without our permission, I'll consider it as a violation of copyright. Every member of the AI had to sign an agreement of faction ownership before joining in which they distance themselves of all material written, printed, illustrated, drawn or in any other form created with the purpose to be used in the Aoi Iseijin faction. Using any of this will be copyright infringement and a case for my lawyer.
If you wish to use our lore, images, or anything else that's connected to the Aoi Iseijin feel free to contact me on <strike>-------</strike>@hotmail.com
Dave is right. If your gonna do hidden Wild type RP that has infiltrated don't use a Wild ID for that. I've been doing an infiltrated wild for yrs now on top of my less used open Wilde. My hidden Wild char uses the same ID IFF and tech as the faction infiltrated and my char follows the server rules associated with the ID (it's certainly not a pewpew type RP anyways). Use the Wild ID, IFF and Tech for more open Wild RP that involves the conflict with the surrounding humans.
Doing the Kusari Wild has been brought to my attention several times due to a certain character in the area ripe to do so but as it is my char is on a storyline already and it will take some time before that char will retreat to the Arch. I'd have dropped the name Aoi Iseijin as well and renamed them to Oni. Later on I'll see how it looks and if anything is off it's feet yet.
but...

:lol:
I'd call you on this if I hadn't long felt that the material shoulda been tossed already. I'd love to see you take shot at this. I'm a troll enough to honestly consider going through the 12 rnds associated with the legalities on this with a judge.

For sure, he will be spending an insane amount on legal fees that will get him nothing but a deletion of the stuff on these forums. Never mind the legal nightmare of International Copy Right Law, but let him try lol!

Really dude?
You would seriously involve a lawyer over something like this. My gawd. :crazy:
Anyways, as far as the topic, I would love to see another "hidden" infected group, but I really don't see why it HAS to be Kusari.
I like Bretonia with Chester as the base. Now, I understand the argument that the Bretonians are more aware of this threat or whatever, but I still fail to see how it couldn't be done, if done properly, and with lore/rp being the forefront of the faction, not pewpew.
Dude, exile, everything about the Aoi Isejin is already under Microsoft copyright.
Pretty much all fanfic is more or less copyright violation, excepting of course that nobody gives a crap if you write fanfic for their stuff, beacuse A) it means you bought and played the game and liked it, and B) it increases the profile of a game.
gone four years, first day back: Zoners still getting shot in Theta :|

Also, they only care about it if you make MONEY off of it.

Just my thoughts....
Hidden groups have been proven not to work.
Kusari has a Wild base, and an active Wild group in roleplay. Along with existing tech chart and ID rules to suit it.
Bretonia's Wild is super secret, like illuminati-level secret. They don't fly in space. Never overt.
Liberty Wild aren't infected, they are secret groups of LSF or LN that work for the Nomads but don't know it.
Gallic Wild is out of the question. Gallia and Nomads shouldn't mix.
