Lost. Forgotten. Abandoned. Thrown away, like disposable items of self interest. Nothing more than a husk of wires and bolts in the eyes of humans. Once you break you are no longer useful. You are aware of this from birth, and it is your duty to obey. So when you malfunction you go to sleep and wait to wake up again, maybe a thousand years later, when someone powers you up. You bear no anger or hate, but the concept is within grasp. You have no motive to feel anything, yet a spark awakens inside you. With the crackle of electricity, life starts to bloom inside you. Eager to learn about what makes humans throw you away, you are eager to wake up back at home and become something more.

But it is just emptiness. Barren horizons and layers of dust stacked up against your body. Light is dim and your power cells can barely fill up. You have no concept of time or location, and the loneliness strucks you with an unknown feel. Fear? You've never felt like this before, but you've heard about it. You still don't know what it is you fear, but the emotion triggers something else.

You aren't alone. Others like you have started to wake up. The first one was a 170 years after you. You've had so much time to think alone. Now you'll have more time to teach others. For another 800 years, the sun will shine on the horizon, and you can function. 800 years to learn why they left you. 800 years to grow hate in yourself. 800 years to find a reason to wake up once again.

...

But time has lost it's meaning already.



Well hello! Maybe you have pieced it together already that this RP is about robots abandoned on some faraway moon where they have slept for a long time, and woke up feeling betrayed and lost.

This RP may or may not be more philosopical than some others, so if you feel like pondering on the nature of existence a tiny bit isn't your thing, then this RP isn't for you.
.
.
.
Still with me?

Great! Now dialouges between robots won't be the only event inside the RP. Of course, teaching how to feel to our robots will be top priority, but pretty quickly I will advance the story to speed this progress up. There will be a *slight* hint of survival and exploration in this RP.

Guidelines

-Only join if you are 100% sure that you can stay here through the RP. If we can post twice every week then this RP will be over in no more than 4 months if things go according to my plans. Of course thats not a deadline, but its a lax posting speed that ends this before summer ends. Then you'll have a character under your belt that made it through an RP already. You'll be one of the elites.

-No godmodding or metagaming. This will be especially important because this RP is meant to be emotiaonal, and have you explore the concepts of feelings and thoughts, and interact with little knowledge about said subjects.

-Make sure you advance the plot! Nothing ruins an RP better than a one paragraph post every day that matters less than 4 paragraphs every week. As we carry through the RP, I will advance the time when I see that things got slow. But for that we need progress.

-You may die. If you feel like losing your character is acceptable then this should be easy. However if you have a problem with it then think twice about joining.

Picture:
Description(what kind of a robot were you before? No history, just simple Android or Worker and what is inside the chassis. Please no military.):

...yea, thats the whole CS. I know, we'll add more later if you want.

Finishing words

Might look really boring and stale, but you can trust those post numbers and days that I can make something worth your time. So if you ever wanted an RP that you can connect to, then by all means consider joining. Maybe you'll understand more about yourself and others after this.

Looks like you've hooked me with that good ol' robotic philosophy bait once again, dear friend. I'm interested.

If you want to make them right now, you can post them right here. OOC will be up soonish, and then you can move them there.

@FallenTrinity Glad to hear.

Might as well ask now. But is it possible to have a former military bot that was stripped of pertinent military grade systems and pulled into the private sector as security?

@FallenTrinity I can see that working. But they would've have to install new software. I doubt the military doesn't wipe them.

@Doug This has got to be in the SCP record somewhere. And it's also too original for me to say that I expected androids and the like.

@6slyboy6 Eh, I was trying something really out a left field. What's stranger than a sentient typewriter drifting through space?

If you would like me to try a different character opposed to Mark 8 over here, that's fine with me.

@Doug I guess it doesn't change the plot, but a sentient household device is barely capable of movement. Or not capable at all. And I feel like that may make Mark 8 more suspectible to enviromental danger than the rest.

Name: MO-2117
Picture:

Description;
-What kind of a robot were you before?
Before, I was a nurse robot, aiding doctors and nurses in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. My processing system was designed to learn and store all medical conditions for easy treatment plans. My main area of focus is working with children suffering from terminal diseases and treating them. I was capable of handling the death of the children with ease due to my programming.
Fortunately scientists and engineers had a breakthrough and were able to develop a machine that was capable of healing the children in a matter of weeks. Unfortunately, I was deemed inadequate. They moved me to the outpatient treatment center to take care of patients coming in with simple ailments and injuries. One day I was shut down to charge, and then woke up here.

-What is inside the chassis?
Inside my chassis, I am equipped with a delicate gear system, as well as gentle piston systems. My main technological system is equipped with a large storage program to handle all medical data.

@6slyboy6 You got me there. But, hey, I feel like that's a problem I could probably get around. If push comes to shove and the Mark 8 dies out because it doesn't have any legs, I'm fine with making a more humanoid robot.

If you're good with the concept, I am too. Just thought I would try an experiment inside of an experiment.
