I made a sci fi forum on fictiopress it didn't catch,so I figured it might catch here.
heres a basic description of the setting. warning it's huge
The city is in a state of disrepair. The city wars left it as a husk of it’s former self. It doesn’t help the most of the population of earth left the city wars. No one to fix it up. . Though the AI that ran parts of the city are stopping it from breaking down completely, they can do little more. Man now huddles in various spaces. From the rooftops that are home to the pressure suited observers, waiting for the former inhabitants of the city to return. To the traveling merchants that cross the sky scrapers, the large air highways, the swamps of the foundation. All to deliver they’re goods.
Though we may be divided man still has outsides threats besides other men. Some AIs go rogue and infect a manufactory to create armies. There are cybernetic creatures brutal mix of biological instincts and cybernetic implants to create extremely powerful beasts. There are even a few cybernetic dragons that shoot lasers that stalk the higher sections of the rooftops..
One of the most prominent of all of these threats are the bionetics. Powerful beings that have been extremely modified with biological augmentations and, cybernetics. Creating creatures that are incredibly dangerous. The one thing that makes them more of a threat than others , is that they seek actively seek out humans. Why? For the Infants.
Though the augmentations to there body make them powerful, they are rendered sterile after 20 years of the augmentation. They don’t have the tech to fix it. So they raid the camps for infants to be modified. Though it’s only basic augments at first. They know it’s a mere baby. Bit being raised amongst them. The children become more modified as they age. Who knows why. The implants also have a chance to render them insane, suicidal, or homicidal and sadistic. The stress of never being able to properly reproduce just makes it worse. They also hunt for the mother spider dens.
Mother spiders are AIs in artificial bodies made to house special brains made to store the AIs consciousness. Though only being a sub type they are one of the few that were created after the exodus of earth. Though of they’re own free will. They find lost children and infants and raise them. They think no different. They of course teach them survival techniques and arm them, before the childe leaves. Most of the time having cybernetic legs like a spider allowing them to climb and search better. And it helps stabilize any heavy weaponry they may use . They off course hate the bionetics.
And we have the E.E.R.F. the expeditionary earth reclamation force. They’re the military that came from the planet humanity fled too after the city wars. They see themselves as entitled to earth and her cities, this the first of many cities to be conquered for humanity. The humanity that is united and colonizing the stars, those that say nay are sentenced to standard execution. No one that’s been born or living here likes them. These men regard. The people of the city as Neanderthals that learned how to use basic 21st century technology. Though this is merely a double standard, as they’re weapons and tech while exotic, are barely capable of rivaling the city tech. though with little support from they’re empire is scarce, they’re searching for a way to send a signal to the empire.
2567 march 17th capt. frits, capitol dropship 'haley's trail'.
we hit the homeworld. but we had a hot welcome. most of the expidition fleet was destroyed be long range defense mechanisms, obviously from the war. but these weren't normal the scans on them we managed to make before making it below their firing angles showed they had longer range than the one that they fired upon us at. enough of that, we managed to deploy the static landers, except well our ship is fixed here. the engine broke down power still works but the ship won't get up. Our researchers theorize it's another defense mechanism. we have silver hawks scouting out the city.

if you read that wall of text thank you heres the character sheet

husk enchancements:AI husk only( basicaly the same as augments, except you may have a completely robot body, like a flying drone or, or a competely human body no augments.)
augments:( bionetic, cyber beast, only.) what implants do you have, and what do they do, be as vague or as specific as you want.
