Is it alright to have siblings on different sides in the shop? (One a nega and one a senshi?)
Mouse: Technically you CAN -- but they can never learn each other's identities as such, so it creates some IC difficulties that might be troublesome to work around.
From a plotting standpoint it's generally going to be more constructive to think about how your character is going to interact with others in general before you think about how they might interact with their sibling, especially if you're playing both characters! It might end up more limiting and frustrating than it's worth to focus your character concept too much around how they have a sibling in the opposing faction.

Do knights have to have the same weapon in the present as their ancestors in the silver millenium did, or do they have to have the same general theme, or can they be totally unrelated?
Mouse: A Knight's weapon is a hugely important part of their legacy, with the same one always having been passed down through an individual Knight's descendants as the universe needed their protection. That said -- yes, they have the same weapon. By Squire stage onward you are using the exact same item as your ancestor or past self: the weapon you hold was also used in the past by your predecessor.
Pages have a bit more wiggle room since theirs are used for training and aren't quite legit. Beyond that, however, your weapon pretty much doubles as a sacred family heirloom that has not changed over time.

I understand that Senshi, when they first become Senshi, have something like an "awakening" by a cat where they are given their pen etc. Do Negaverse agents have anything similar to an awakening, etc? I'm asking because I'm unsure how to "jump in" as my new Nega character, RP wise. Thank you!!
Nessy: It's not often RPed but all Negaverse agents are usually corrupted by either a general (which exhausts the general) or a General King or Queen. This basically involves having a high-rank Negaverse officer stick their hand in your civilian's chest and pump it full of corruption. It can be voluntary or involuntary!
This is, however, optional to be RPed and thusly why it isn't done much. You can assume, if you'd like, that you were brought before one of our NPC General Queens or make up a General that would have corrupted your character if you'd like to skip this formality.

Is there a specific address for Soverign Height Preparatory School? A Zip code, logo and also a saying? I want Venice to open a letter regarding her acceptance letter into the school and i was hoping to do a mock letter - something like this. But i dont want to over step the boundaries!!
OH and also the principle as well!!

((The logo is a mock up and the latin saying is: No mortal is wise at all times...Know thyself. ))Nessy: We only have rough geographic locations for each school and no real addresses or such thing. I suggest avoiding conventional zip codes however, as there is also no precise location for Destiny City itself!
What you have looks fine to me. Thank you!!! I am sorry to be a big a** but is their a principle at the school or a standard name i can add in for it XD.

Can there be corrupt Princes/ses. I.E. Would it be possible for a corrupt senshi to ever be granted a special 4th stage?
Nessy: Yes though there is no guarantee that one might ever manifest! For several reasons it's notably harder to become a corrupt royal senshi than it is for a White Moon senshi to become a royal.

In the past it's been mentioned as possible to bring small items back and forth between earth and homeworlds. Is it possible to take seeds and other materials and try to coax a garden out of them? Would anything grow, or are the homeworlds barren? What about hydroponics/aeroponics?
Nessy: My memory tells me that we did agree that plant life survived on some planets depending on the preference of the player. I am sure if you took an animal indigenous to Earth to your planet it probably couldn't survive; senshi and their guests are magically attuned to be able to survive any conditions and animals are not.
However you could definitely try growing Earth-indigenous plant life on your planet. Seems like a fun hobby!

In the Negaverse info thread it reads that lieutenants are able of jumping 2-3 stories high (max) and run at a speed of 2x their normal pace. How do these skills compare to that of a Senshi's jump and run skills? Are they equal? More? Less?
Nessy: Run and jump speeds are equal for both sides at their respective stages of growth.

Those corrupted senshi that become Ascended, as they heal on their home world the thread states that it kills their 'planet'... What would happen to an Ascended senshi if their planet actually died from Chaos? Would they also die?
Nessy: That's a mystery, isn't it! Because we rarely kill characters in this shop odds are the planet will either not die entirely or we'll be doing something else equally fun.

I have some star related things!
Is it possible to change a known orbit of an asteroid to say it was something different before modern times? Or does it have to remain the same as what it is currently known for? Would it be possible that originally an asteroid or comet, over the 1000 years, to have flown into the solar system from another? Of course, that would take quite a few hundred years but with that would it be possible to say that an asteroid or comet studied to currently travel this solar system to have come in from another?
Is it possible for a current asteroid to have been a comet 1000 years ago? It's suggested that Hypnos may be the nucleus of an extinct comet, so could that be something that could have happened?
More importantly...
Is it possible for it to have been/or still be bigger? Hypnos is really small, debated between 0.9-1.2 kilometers in dimensions and I am trying to figure out her homeworld stuff now. So before I start I have to work around the size of it all, if I have to work with that size, or is there is planetoid size leeway for smaller bodies?
Comparatively, Hypnos is 0.9-1.2 while Ixion is like 600 plus.
Mouse: The short answer is that you are by no means required to follow science exactly when worldbuilding. Astronomers' descriptions were kind of thrown out the window when we established that all these places are habitable / were habited, so any adjustments you want to make for the sake of getting the world you want out of it are just fine.
It might be more practical to keep Hypnos's classification as an asteroid just so her super henshin phrase (Hypnos Asteroid Power, Make-Up!) was the same in the past as it would be in the present, though. But that's just my preference / personal opinion speaking, there.

Since cats have such high energy signals I'm assuming it means they have a decent amount of power, even if not a good way to channel it into anything. That said:
Can a corrupted cat corrupt a Lt, or power up a Lt to a Captain? Or is there some magic involved with the ability to stick 'hands' into chests that would keep them from ever being able to do that? I know they can obviously power up a corrupted senshi ;3
Mouse: Corrupted cats can only power up corrupted senshi, which is one of the big selling points in having them around! However, they cannot power up normal Negaverse officers -- they can't wield dark energy in that capacity, and on top of that they don't have the authority to do so. You need to be a General-King or Queen in order to promote, and Negaverse cats are unfortunately not that high on the pecking order.

Alright I've been thinking about this for a while..
When a senshi becomes royal, when they henshin up are they always royal?
Like Sailor Moon was Eternal Sailor Moon most of the time unless she needed to be Royal.
So when Castor henshins up, does he start as eternal, or Royal? Can they start out as Eternal, and change to royal mid battle like Sailor Moon can?
Nessy: Royal senshi may choose between their Eternal and Royal forms at will. However they take a significant power loss going down to Eternal though that does enable them to blend better into the city and not be giant walking targets.

i thought i'd ask cuz it'll be important later down the road... i'm aware of the minimum requirements of a post, such as the 450 words and stuff, but is there a maximum limit?
Nessy: Nope! There is no upper limit, just a minimum for a solo/RP to count as credit. If you plan on writing large solos, be sure to check out the word requirements on the first page for making one solo count for more than one requirement.

About energy collection for the Negaverse -
I see a lot of folks writing their poor civillians passing out, in pain, etc, but I remember from the show a lot of folks didn't even notice that their energy levels were dropping so alarmingly?
Is is possible for a careful agent to harvest energy without making their subject feel BAD per say, or being extremely noticeable? I was planning on Howlite collecting some inside clubs, bars, parties, perhaps during dancing or other activities where being tired afterward isn't such a big deal.
It would take a lot longer, of course, than simply grabbing someone and draining them until they pass out or die, but is it possible?
Nessy: It is possible to skim a small amount of energy from a large group without anyone really noticing, yes. However draining energy is usually felt. People will get tired, if you take too much they will pass out. So while they wouldn't feel bad the subject having their energy stolen would feel more tired than they did before their energy was taken.
Though stealing from a crowd is something you will have to wait until at least late-captain/general stage to do, it's always good to have ambitions! Lieutenants are supposed to have to have physical contact with the subject they are draining, as are new Captains.
