Irk was in shock, but you can tell he was distressed.

Also, just to clarify, the Avonite fleet talking to your invasion force has not actually opened fire yet.

OK that's good to hear.  Will modify appropriately with that.  (The fleet not firing yet).

What I was what exactly about the process the Avonites opposed.  It's the general consensus in Trek stuff that matter streams are employed in transport, and funnelled through subspace domain (somehow) to realspace again somewhere else, presumably on a starship.  So it's still the same matter being employed in both places, and consciousness isn't broken if we're going with Trek canon on the transporter... so why would there be any philosophical or religious opposition to them? 

Just a note that this RP does not follow Star Trek canon.

Isn't it more in line with Star Wars?

Yeah. Elements may be drawn from Star Trek, though: when I started out this RP, I believe I said the Warp Drive and nothing else (that's since changed).

My Aesir Empire was supposed to draw elements from WH40K, but that won't really work well here...

Yeah, but I'm not entirely sure how I can do anything with transporters with Star Wars.  There isn't too much information on their technical functionality in Star Wars: The Old Republic... :/

Avonites believe very strongly about the sanctity of the Avonite body. They ban cloning and teleporters because both, they view it, are machines that create pale imitations of the real thing. In teleporter's case, it is because the original body is broken down. Even if the exact matter is used to put the person back together, the original body is dead, along with the soul of the Avonite.

Ahh so the better thing to do would be to wipe part of their memory somehow and transport them back and proclaim that they never left.  I like it, but that'd definitely test the limits of Romulan medicine...

And, sadly, would not work.

How so?  Insectoid brain functions wouldn't be far different than those of other animals...

No, not that you cant do that, that they will not believe you.

Won't believe us that we didn't transport them?  Kir Darkcloak doesn't strike me as the religious type... industrialists probably wouldn't care, really, eh? 

No, Kir and Irk might if you mess with their heads. But no one else will believe you.

Define "no one else" .... *plotting face*
