Okay, folks. Yes, another sci-fi roleplay from yours truly. Let’s take a look at the plot:
In the very, very distant future...
The world is a mess of pollution and other assorted crap. People still work tirelessly to restore the Earth to its original beauty... but only when they’re awake. Only when they’re not in the Game. In the Stasis.
The world is a mess... so the government’s solution? Create a virtual reality so immersive you can’t tell it from real life. How do you reach it, you ask? Anyone can. All you need is a GameLock. A tall cylinder filled with a cytoplasm-like substance that keeps you alive while your mind, your consciousness, is uploaded to the iWorld through a chip in your brain. Once your essence arrives, you are bodiless; you must create an Avatar. Your Avatar does not have to look anything like you, but make sure you’re happy with it. You can’t change it once it’s made. It will age at the same rate as your true body, but will max out its growth at somewhere around twenty-five.
The world is a mess, but Game life is great. Or at least, it was, until the Glitches came. AI so advanced it became sentient. Their goal? To sever the connection between human mind and body, then jump to reality by downloading themselves into a brain-dead human’s mind. And humanity isn’t at all sure they won’t just let it happen. But the government decided that they don’t want to be forever virtually twenty-five, living as a sentient AI. So they enlisted you.
Your character should be a hacker of some sort, and their goal should be to delve through all the layers of iWorld and eliminate the Glitches... before they can eliminate you.

6. If you read the rules, put a line from the song Viva la Vida (Coldplay) in your bio.
