Kingdom

- Dark Amarr, alone the name... look at this.
- Black ships (cannt wait for a black apoc, which shoots missiles. One day people, one day, you hear me people? One day).
- Have a big variety... okay... you can choose between two: Caldari and Amarr, but you can mix them how you like
- No tony G  :P (just joking)
- Having a cool leader
- being in a minor faction, means you learn very fast everyone else. I would say in this point just the Mandate are toping the Kingdom.

-Drugs
-Interesting past events
-Biochemistry
-Not really been touched by TonyG

There's probably more, but I can't really pin it. Serpentis are a fun faction to play.

Khanid Faction Best Faction!

- Just the entire idea of one of the Royal Heirs "going rogue," starting a civil war, giving the Empire the middle finger and a bloody nose, and being a complete pain in their backsides for 500 years bring me much joy.
-The very interesting fusion of Caldari practicality with Imperial Holder politicking.
-Our ships are gorgeous
- Someday, in the far future, the fabled torp-throwing black Abaddon of death. 5% armor resist and 5% Torpedo damage.  Everyone runs and dies.

Sabik Faction Best Faction!
- Secular Power Cult run by billionaire immortals? Yes please
- Seekrit arcane rituals for the 1% of the 1% only? Sure!
- A fabulous dark and perverted mirror of the Empire's upper class and a lesson in how power corrupts
- We're everywhere! The Empire just can't get rid of us and we are in all the corridors of power. Idiocy and facedesking of Karsoth plot notwithstanding...

Well, if we do the National Kyber;
- Conflict. Conflict in your everything.
- Plenty of room for science.
- Ideologies that are (hopefully) foreign enough to make RPing someone adhering to them an interesting exercise.
- The period between the empires banding up to smack the Nation down and their first hints of coordinated activity (YC105 or somesuch) is a really interesting one, IMO.
- Sansha's impeccable abs.

Alternatively, the more-or-less afactional Renaud:
- Politics? Who gives a flying fuck? Have fun, go to nightclubs, dress snappily.
- Watching people get wound up about their governments is adorable.
- Do what you enjoy, not what a faction's inner circle says you should do.

The Blood Raider Covenant

To me, it is the notion of self-empowerment and self-righteousness that blood raiders seem to have. Also the strength of the family that is stressed in The Burning Life. I like the religious aspects of Sani Sabik because they run parallel to the Amarr faith, giving way for theological debate with the more righteous of the Amarr. When I first started rp in Blood Raider direction I was thinking it would be like a Nazi Vampire Lesbian orgy (it kind of was for a bit). But after reading more into the lore, it is a very humble faction that works behind the scenes most of the time. I really like the subversiveness of the Blood Raiders.

Ni-Kunni

-Gives me a reason to say NI!
-They are literally everywhere.  Apparently we're good merchants, craftsmen, etc so we've infiltrated every corner.
-You can go pro-Amarr or anti-Amarr and both sides are pretty easy to see the reasons why.
-Gives me a reason to reuse the Life of Brian joke "What have the Romans ever done for us!" (insert Amarr for Romans).
-Culturally they're a mixed bag.  I tend to see them as Arabic/Indian/Persian and I've used some Sumerian linguistics in my stories.  (Variety is good mmmkay)
-In with the Middle-Eastern theme, gives me a reason to watch belly dancing videos :).  Plus the idea of Wind-Dancing and/or Sword Dancing is just cool.
-Pragmatism.  Being that we were conquered a long...LONG time ago it seems like an easy mental leap to make most Ni-Kunni fairly adaptable and not very hot-headed.
-Spicy Food (and anything else that can be associated with the word spicy :) )

Ultimately though, the Ni-Kunni have been touched on (not entirely bad touch so I don't need an adult) by CCP but not really carved in stone so there's A LOT of leeway when it comes to making your Ni-Kunni unique without Mary-sueing it up...too much.  Plus I don't think there's a particular cause-du-jour for the Ni-Kunni so there's not a for/against trap to fall into.

... NI!

Don't even start with NI, or you will summon Aldy all over the place and he will start a new KotMC full of knights who say NI!  8)
