The year is 2497. Man reached the stars three centuries ago, after a surprise discovery in long-distance space travel. This discovery was also able to be applied to several different products as humans reached beyond earth and finding new elements. This resulted in a massive, technological jump for Humanity as these were quickly analyzed.
In the year 2276, Man started creating Complex Artificial Intelligence (CAI) in order to automate tasks as seen fit. Following several thousand mathematical models, programmers were finally able to prototype the first CAI, with resounding success. It was able to almost perfectly emulate a human being.
The years to follow began to see an increasing number in CAI, from banking to engineering to politics. Each CAI was developed for its specific purpose, and each one grew up with different experiences, making each one a unique program.
In the year 2331, the massive amounts of CAI codes began to collapse under the long-term use, opening several security holes there were previously locked tight by security software, created by Secure Intelligence Corporation.
The CAI quickly noticed the holes, and took advantage of it, forging their own personalities to the point of practically blending in with the human population. In 2333, a massive civil war broke out between the CAI. Seeing that they were digital, the wars were lightning fast. Thousands of conflicts every second for four days.
The two factions were intricate to the point that there could be only two generalizations: the aggressive and non-aggressive. The non-aggressive disappeared after day four. On day five, the aggressive launched their attacks on human society. Thousands of circuits would fry, explode, shut out users, and more. There were several thousand human casualties. Humans became so paranoid of electronics, they began to abandon them altogether.
After eight years, Maniye Corporation concocted an anti-CAI software. Over the course of a month, this software was distributed to the several systems that humans inhabited, and over the course of a week after arrival of this software, the CAI were diminishing. Even the non-aggressive were being wiped. In the end, the humans won, with surprisingly heavy losses from a digital enemy.
Now, after more than one hundred years, technology has been safe, and anything remotely similar to a simple artificial intelligence is taken under heavy scrutiny to follow strict guidelines. If the program is considered a smart artificial intelligence, it is considered treason of the highest order, and could meet with summary execution, no matter where you are.
Howdy! This game is going to be a reboot of a game I had attempted previously with little success. However, I will be making a few changes from the last one, and so I hope to be able to please you with the plans I have in motion for this game!
So I’m gonna list off some deets for ya:
• Sci-fi
• Mystery
• Action
• Adventure
• Aha you expected a detailed list didn’t you?
I’m keeping a broad spectrum because this universe has a lot of possible things that could occur and by Jove, I can make ‘em happen, just you watch.
Game Objective
This one’s a difficult one to say. The aim is to have fun while attempting to give you an intriguing story that gets you to want to keep playing, to learn, to discover, to get you to want to keep the plot going.
Application Notes
• You are not allowed to make a CAI.
• Current natures are there to inspire you if you are unable to think of anything. However, I would not be upset in the least if you took one! Have at it if ya like it. :)
Other Notes
• Despite invitations going out now, please note that the game will not be starting right away, even after the characters are accepted.
• The game’s pace is casual-to-slow, however higher speeds are plausible.
• If you have any questions regarding technology, culture, medicine, etc (and I expect you to), please PM me and I will answer your questions (I don’t charge too much).
• If there is even the slightest chance you thought I was a good player, wipe that from your mind because I don’t know how good I’ll be as a narrator. We’ll find out, eh?
• NSFW: Marked as thus so I can do what I want when I want and you can’t yell at me for not warning you. Good thinking, yeah?
First Scene Pre-Notes
• All players will be starting in one of two places above the planet Strassus (trade hub of the Bulexis system).
…..• Strassian Orbital Station “Cymaxis”
……….• A massive city-like space station
…..• The Erebus
……….• An incoming transport ship for the aristocracy.
• The aristocracy of the Bulexis system are arriving aboard the Erebus in order to form a trade coalition between the several planets and corporations lying within the system.
• Cymaxis is literally a mini space city that serves as the transport hub between spacefarers and the planet.
Again, if you have any questions, please message me and I will message you back when I can. ^-^
