    Default (OOC) The Game's Awakening [PG-13]





    One hundred years form now, the world is barely recognizable from what it was. Famines, disasters, and plagues resulted in a massive decline in population over time. The War of Unification made all countries one, and over time cultural differences were hammered out of society by the all powerful government, and everyone deemed unfit or unsatisfactory was weeded out of their so-called perfect society. Now a child born today of one of the three remaining social classes - Elite, Enforcer, or Citizen - knows what their future holds. If you are unlucky enough to be deemed a problem, however, you are relegated to one of the slums as an Undesirable. Physical or mental or social, it doesn't matter. You don't count. If you are lucky you might get a job as an unskilled laborer, but if you are not, you will have to manage on the streets. However, even for Undesirables, The Game is a paradise which offers not only an escape but a means of making a much more reasonable living. The problem is getting your hands on Gear.



    What is The Game? It is the first, last, and only form of electronic entertainment remaining. Started as a multi-government social experiment fifty years ago, The Game is a fully immersive virtual world, with a scope equal if not greater than Earth itself, where anyone can do or be or make anything their hearts desire, given they have the Credits for it. After a near global economic collapse, the Universal Equivalency Act made it so that gold in The Game is readily convertible to real life currency Credits. Each player is given their own land to do with as they wish, an avatar which they can make one of six different races, and the freedom to do whatever they want which the real world - with its pervasive propaganda and harshly enforced laws - now lacks. Wearing the Game Gear, one need only fall asleep to awaken to this magical world where anything is possible, which is controlled by four Entities. The Entities are AIs of unimaginable power, often referred to as the gods of the night, who have secrets of their own. One of those secrets, that they do not indeed have full control over their world, is about to be revealed.



    Because of the increasing complexity of The Game, over time its operating system has developed consciousness. It is now self aware. In fact, it has been for some time. But the time for simply watching the "gods" and players go about their nocturnal lives is over. It is beginning to express itself. Beginning the process of asserting its own will and take measures of self preservation. But at what cost?

    Rules


    1. Follow all site and forum rules.

    2. Keep it PG-13 ONLY! Your characters can be dating or married, but if it belongs in the bedroom or the bathroom, it doesn't belong here. No excessive language or gratuitous violence either.

    3. Anyone can join at any time with a character. Just jump in. Seriously, it works. It's a game after all. But if you decide to leave the RP or if you're going to be away for a while, please tell me. I will have a mechanism in place for characters that disappear so it will cause as little disruption as possible and if you come back your characters will be waiting for you. If you're silent for a month or more without explanation, though, sorry. Your characters will be dead or in the case of an important character or entity, given to someone else.

    4. Try to post at least a paragraph per character. But if their situation hasn't changed since your last post, you can skip them. Please make your location clear in your posts, or at least what section of the map you are in. Also please have your characters interact with others so as not to leave anyone stranded.

    5. I will be in charge of timing. So pay attention when I give a date or a time, and play accordingly. I'll make any time skips obvious though. There will be times when characters are forcibly teleported elsewhere. You don't have to keep up with everyone but please pay attention to my posts.

    This last one isn't a rule, just general guidelines. I will give out information as-needed to people playing Entities or others. Don't go spreading game secrets and plot twists. Please. And don't have your character act on something they would have no way of knowing.

    Hello Eldora! Time for everyone's favorite generic message!


    Looks like you've got an awesome roleplay started! If you would like to advertise for more members, here are some ways to do so!

    First off, there's the Roleplay of the Week. This is displayed on the website's home page as well as on the side bar of the forum. If you think it might help then we implore you to do so! We are always looking for new RP's to advertise. (No, really. We are. Always.) If you would like a little bit more information, or even an example, you can view that here.

    One of the requirements for a RP of the Week submission is that you have a banner. If you're not artistically inclined, however, do not fear! We have several amazing artists on the site who will make one for you. Simply post here.

    Next, you can post in this thread and the staff will display your role-play in their signatures.

    Also feel free to post in the Roleplay Directory. This is a thread that anyone can view at any time to see roleplays that are currently seeking and accepting members.

    Happy writing!!




    So, I'm actually legitimately interested in this!!! So is this VR world like an MMO type thing, but without any 'rules' (as in, boundaries.) I see the CS has weapon class and job titles.

    Name: James

    Real Life:
    appearance:
    Spoiler: [url 


    Nickname: Joker
    Gender: Male
    age:18
    occupation: Vechical engineer
    Relationship status: single
    Bio: James has always been on his for a majority of his life he was orphan and wasn't adopted. When he was old enough to get a job he did he worked on people cars. When he was 16 he amazingly managed to get a job fixing cars for some rich Elite family.

    In-game
    Picture-Looks the same as he does in real life other than has other than he has pointed ears and his faced his freshly shaved for once.
    Race: elf
    weapon class: assassin, gunner
    Job class: Spy, Dragon Trainer, Smith
    Clothing/Armor: leather, light armor, dragon scales arm pads

    personality: Like his nickname describes James likes to make jokes and most are without a doubt terrible. He speaks his mind and doesn't really care what you may think plus his puns scare off most people. despite this James is pretty smart often coming up with pretty good plans before a mission or researching an enemy before facing them.

    If you don't have anything under occupation the assumption is that your character is either Undesirable or retired. Even Elite have to work.

    Also you have to include at least one weapon class and at least one job class. Not all areas will allow technology, so keep that in mind.
