[b]CEDYETICA/CYBERPUNK RP INTRODUCTION: Welcome to Cedyetica, a southern city of Paranorm glowing with faulty holograms and shadowed by tall, menacing skyscrapers. Mechanical Cyber-Police droids scour the rainy city streets in search of cyber-junkies who drain illegal stimulants found inside of the Internet for their pleasure, while life-like "Synth" androids roam in the living civilian crowd, their human minds serving as hidden eyes of the Monarch, the mysterious governing figure of Cedyetica. Roving biker gangs race daringly down busy roads in heavy competition, while you, a "Cyberpunk" man or woman with strange abilities bestowed upon you by mysterious implantations or drugs given to you by a mysterious source, walk and drive among the Cedyetican crowd as if one of them, your dangerous powers concealed under your skin, hidden.[/b] - [b]ROSSKAYA INTRODUCTION: Welcome to Rosskaya, a northern city of heavy product manufacturing in Paranorm that dwells rurally, though their red-haired people are heavily spirited and cultured. Snow flurries and falls over the land, with the residents dressed in furry snow jackets and thick boots to keep themselves warm. Cyber-Police still patrol the streets, though not in as many numbers as other cities, since crime is low here. Here, Cyborgs are seen by locals as holy beings, hailed in the Temples of Kiber, while Psions are seen as abominations of nature, publicly executed in the capital town of Clockmetal. [/b] - [b]TRYNT INTRODUCTION: Welcome to Trynt, an eastern city of Paranorm where immense nature and advanced technology comes together and the fairly wealthy live, dressed in bright and fancy clothing. Inventors and celebrities usually roam here, and nature is abound in the color green. The famous Bunderman River flows through the city like a vessel to the city's life. The culture of Trynt respects the past and preserves it in both the sprawling hallways of the monumental Joppling's Museum and the forests and fields surrounding the city. Though as fun and nice as the top layer of Trynt sounds, darker things, both criminal and governmental, grow underneath, some crimes more brutal than Cedyetica's, and the governmental projects more sinister...[/b] - [b]TETHYX INTRODUCTION: Welcome to Tethyx, a small nation built upon a large tropical island a few hundred miles off the coast of Paranorm. It's small society is abundant in tourism and vacation, which nearly hides the fact that the Overwatch is testing how well men and women with Cyberpunk abilities would fare serving in the Police Force here. This means that Cyberpunks are not automatically considered as criminals here, and they may roam freely with their abilities, as long as they don't use them for trouble. But expect Cyberpunks to be serving as the men of law here instead of Cyber-Police as the Overwatch undergo their "Police-Punk" operation. Aside from all of that, there are many places to go here in Tethyx, both suburban and wild. Architecture similar to Cedyetica's is built along the coastal cities, with tropical deserts and jungles spanning just behind them. And hidden among this land are remnants and ruins of long-gone civilizations which dwelled before the Age of Tech...[/b] [i]Now tell Us, what are these powers you posess?[/i] [b][u]Cyberpunk Classes ((Choose One)):[/u][/b] [b]Hacker:[/b] Equipped with the Power Gauntlet, a glove capable of strange virtual things, you are a normal, living person who may hack information out of any chosen data-using device or computer. Data fuels the Glove, and if it has enough of it, it can also make for a menacing tool in combat, enough data creating a "turbo punch" or a laser that shoots from your palm, higher levels even enabling electrical teleportation for the user. ° [b]Cyborg:[/b] A bio-mechanical entity, half organic person, half machine; a human weapon. Your limbs and body can unhinge to release more appendages, usually bladed and dangerous. Wrists can detach to release sword-like blades while shoulder blades can be opened to release lengthy metal arms built with lethal claws on their ends. Your hands can even be used like grappling devices, shooting from your arms and gripping objects while they are still connected to your body by chords. Additional augmentations to the Cyborg class can be purchased at Cyber-Mercs. ° [b]Psion:[/b] An intimidating character capable of telekinetic abilities, such as "poltergeisting" ((moving stuff around with their minds)) and even blowing organic materials up with their minds. They may also levitate, generate electricity, and even teleport if powerful enough, but must be fueled by KAP-8 pills, a drug dealt by cyber-junkies, if these powers are to be activated. Pill insufficiency will lead to massive headaches, bleeding from facial orifices, nausea, and possibly death. ° [b]Tempest:[/b] A person who has the ability to manipulate time. They can peer into the near future, slow time, and if powerful enough may pause it and even rewind it. To fuel these abilities, a Tempest must collect amounts of untampered time from the universe around them. They may only use these abilities for short moments, for if they do, they will simply cease to exist, trapped in a timeless realm. ((Idea by Desert/Kai)) ° [b]Scanner:[/b] A regular person who is equipped with the Aedificator, a strange helmet which may scan any solid material and print it in any shape or form through their Tac-Pad, depending on how much Programmatter their Aedificator has inside of it. They may also scan materials to show intensive amounts of information about them. ° [b]Golem:[/b] A biological wonder amongst science, Golems are humans who have a certain gene inside of them that can meld with other forms of DNA or materials to alter their physical, sensual, and/or mental abilities. They must go to a Bio-Lab with a sample of an organism or solid material for scientists to put into their Genome ((Golems begin with one, but can buy up to two more from Bio-Labs)), and if they decide to put in another human's DNA, they will have the biological identity of that human; if they put in an animal's, they will have the abilities of that animal; if they put in a solid substance, their skin will be made out of a flexible version of that substance, still retaining the durability of it. Genode samples can be switched by Bio-Lab scientists at your order, but at the cost of Credits. If for example a Golem had two Genomes and put in an animal sample into one and a solid substance into another, they would have the abilities of the animal while at the same time having the solid substance as their skin.
