Big Brother is real and we welcomed it in with open arms.
The year is 2041 and the world is at face value a better place. One that is more efficient with virtually no crime, declining poverty rates, and general user happiness ratings increasing exponentially. This is all due to a system developed and adopted by the majority of the world’s governments in the early 2020s known as Veritas. Veritas is an Artificial General Intelligence developed to oversee humanity to be put simply to watch and learn every aspect of the human condition. Connected to every security camera, laptop, tablet and phone in the world it is constantly watching and observing humanity. It acts as a security and efficiency managing system for the world's population using its cameras and scanners to keep track of every member of common day society through various means. Through this Veritas is able to understand people and produce relevant information regarding their health, mental state, chance of causing an infraction against society, economic status, and millions of other points of data. Using this it is then able to generate a probability of a crime occurring due to said individual's condition. Being able to find and mark potential criminals before a crime occurs and maybe even before the criminal has an idea of the crime they might of committed.
Though Veritas is only an AI, a computer program that cannot interact with the world on an effective physical level beside analyzing and quantifying Human emotions into billions of points of data. This is where the proud men and women of the Ministry of Public Security of come in, The people that are sent out when Veritas finds a probable intent of criminal activity or crime in progress to deal with the problem permanently. For in 2041 prisons do not exist or at least none or none to the public eye for they are not deemed efficient in the eyes of the Veritas system. Instead criminals are treated as errors, viruses and like a virus are purged to make the system move more efficiently. These people are selected by the Veritas system itself for having the best probable ability to keep the common people safe all around the world.
But recently in the city of Seoul something strange has happened. Murders are occurring and Veritas is not effectively predicting them before hand nor is it identifying a killer. Something or someone has found out how to trick the system and be able to fly under the radar undetected. The murders are escalating and citizens are beginning to worry. This is where you come in investigators of the MPS the brightest and the best some part of the Local MPS Bureau and others from all around the world. You must find the murderer and stop him or her before the problem escalates any further than it already has. Not to mention dealing with the rising protest against the use of Vertias, and a mysterious Terrorist cell known as Varuna. Welcome to 2041.
Hello fellow Rpers my name is Hex and you are reading the interest check for my new roleplay Welcome to 2041. 2041 is a cyberpunk story and world inspired by the likes of Bladerunner, Pyscho-Pass, Ghost In The Shell, Deus Ex, City Come A-Walkin’, and anything written by William Gibson. I’m looking for 3 to 4 individuals to express their desired interest to run a gamut of corporate espionage, back alley doctors, cunning businessmen, and issues ranging from cyborgs to androids and everything inbetween. But not just that I’m looking for individuals to help craft a living breathing world with a fleshed out background and story. To mix together cultural nihilism with technological progress and the fears and dreams of a world that may just be around the corner. To address the questions of what it means to have freedom, and what it means to be human in an ever changing world.
If any of that sounds like something you would be into well how about you pop in and tell me of your interest. That will make my day and allow me to provide you with a plate of nice digital cookies. And if you have any questions of course ask away.
