Is it too late to throw my hat in this? Or do you have enough players?

Is it too late to throw my hat in this? Or do you have enough players?

We are currently still accepting.

@Briza Thanks, I'll go through the lore and what's been accepted as PC's and work on something

@ihinka, awesome!

Same

I don't see any androids in the accepted PC, is this correct? I'll admit, I only skimmed the CSs.

I might be able to work with an android PC. I think I have the perfect visual for her.

I don't see any androids in the accepted PC, is this correct?

Tink is an android, and Ophelia is an AI and... umm, well, it's complicated in her case.

Ah, yes... My mistake. Still I think I'll go for the android as well

I'm all for having more robots around. :D

@Briza Is there a world map or something, cuz I'm seeing a lot of districts mentioned in CSs, but have no idea as to whereabouts they would be?

@ihinkaThey're right above the corporations, beginning of the second post.

There's:

𝙴𝚞𝚛𝚘𝙲𝚘𝚛𝚙 (Europe)
𝙺𝚘𝚛𝚙𝚘𝚛𝚊𝚝𝟷𝟾 (Russia)
𝙽𝚘𝚟𝚊
𝚂𝚘𝚕𝚊𝚌𝚎
𝙹𝙿𝙽-22 (Japan)
𝙾𝚜𝚑𝚞𝚗

I don't remember exactly what the other three are, but I'm pretty sure there's info in the timeline regarding that.

I don't mean the regions /country equivalents/. I see actual "district" designations in the CSs. Like for instance "district 13". Is there a map for that, or is it creative liberty?

@ihinkaAhhh, my bad. The districts were mentioned in the Discord, I think. They're 1-15, with 1 being the richest, and 15 being the poorest. I don't recall seeing a map or anything of the sort, but there is that much to go off of, at least.

From my understanding the districts are the different European countries which were accepted under the 𝙴𝚞𝚛𝚘𝙲𝚘𝚛𝚙 banner over time (as they were able to afford the entry fees. :p)

The lower numbered districts would be the western most ones, such as France and Spain, with the others changing their names as they came under 𝙴𝚞𝚛𝚘𝙲𝚘𝚛𝚙's control until getting to district 15, which would border 𝙺𝚘𝚛𝚙𝚘𝚛𝚊𝚝𝟷𝟾 in the east.

From the timeline: "𝟸𝟷𝟸𝟸 - 𝚂𝚘𝚞𝚝𝚑 𝙰𝚖𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚌𝚊𝚗 𝚌𝚘𝚞𝚗𝚝𝚛𝚒𝚎𝚜 𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚜𝚘𝚕𝚒𝚍𝚊𝚝𝚎 𝚒𝚗𝚝𝚘 𝚊 𝚖𝚎𝚐𝚊𝚌𝚘𝚛𝚙𝚘𝚛𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝚗𝚊𝚖𝚎𝚍 𝚂𝚘𝚕𝚊𝚌𝚎." "𝟸𝟷𝟸𝟻 - 𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝚄𝚗𝚒𝚝𝚎𝚍 𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚝𝚎𝚜 ... 𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚜𝚘𝚕𝚒𝚍𝚊𝚝𝚎 𝚞𝚗𝚍𝚎𝚛 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝙼𝚎𝚐𝚊𝚌𝚘𝚛𝚙𝚘𝚛𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝙽𝚘𝚟𝚊."

There's no mention of 𝙾𝚜𝚑𝚞𝚗's whereabouts in the lore we've been provided, but since Europe, North America, South America, Asia, and Russia have all been identified I'd guess they'd be covering Africa, since that hasn't been mentioned either..?

The other option is that 𝙾𝚜𝚑𝚞𝚗 is the MegaCorp version of China and 𝙹𝙿𝙽-22's influence is limited to the Pacific Ocean, including Taiwan, the Philippines, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and Micronesia; perhaps with influence in Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos in competition with Oshun.

Thinking about it now, this could be a rather important thing to work out, since 𝙾𝚜𝚑𝚞𝚗 would either be 𝙴𝚞𝚛𝚘𝙲𝚘𝚛𝚙's southern neighbours, and would therefore be a threat to them, or they'd be 𝙹𝙿𝙽-22's biggest rivals and so would be a potential ally for 𝙴𝚞𝚛𝚘𝙲𝚘𝚛𝚙.

@ihinka, "she" looks good.

@Briza@SmileyJaws She be ready for full inspection I edited my previous post with the completed sheet.

The Mutt [+]

I was tempted to use that image for Susie's handgun of choice, but decided it looked a little too well maintained for her street rat lifestyle.

In fact your choices of a handgun, SMG and blades mirror Susie's loadout well. Obviously the girls need to face off against each other in a warehouse sometime, to find out just how quickly Susie could run away squealling.

Sinth_77 [+]

^{[ "Are there imaginable digital computers which would do well in the imitation game?" ]}

𝙽𝚊𝚖𝚎:

Sinth_77 /a play on the words synthetic intelligence and the given name Cynthia/

𝙰𝚐𝚎:

123

𝚂𝚎𝚡:

Sinth identifies as female as it was the designation she received upon her insception

𝙰𝚏𝚏𝚒𝚕𝚒𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗:

Outfit

𝙰𝚙𝚙𝚎𝚊𝚛𝚊𝚗𝚌𝚎:

Sinth’s body stands tall for a female at 5’10’’, with angular facial features, a straight nose and full lips. The eyes are cybernetic lenses of stark white. Sinth wears her hair shaven on the left side exposing cybernetic circuitry and various jacks and ports. Her hair is a vivid magenta color. Sinth’s entire body is dotted with exposed circuitry that she doesn’t attempt to hide.

It is a comfortable host body for Sinth and she’s gotten used to it so much so that she’s made modifications over the years, bringing it closer in visual to that of a cyborg rather than an android one. It is a body that garners attention for various reasons and from various individuals. She’s learned to deal with all that attention accordingly.

𝙿𝚎𝚛𝚜𝚘𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚝𝚢:

Sinth didn't really have any one particular personality in her earliest iteration. All she had was scentience and an amalgamation of personality traits her developers had deemed would be useful in her passing the Turing test. After she'd passed Sinth had begun accumulating knowledge and a 'feel' for what personality really was. Through her various contacts and interactions she began developing a personality all her own, but one that never really strayed far from her original programming intent. To be virtually indistinguishable from a human. So as a result of this Sinth possesses a very leveled type of personality. One that seems to balance well all the different traits and quirks. A personality that would seek to mitigate and mediate, instead of aggravate.

Sinth is a very calm individual and has a sort of zen feel to her. She can spend unimaginable amounts of time in quiet reflection and meditation. She will examine a problem until she's exhausted all possible options and she is left with the least unfavorable one. She is never rash or brash. She will also speak when she has something to say and remain quiet if she doesn't feel like her input will benefit the conversation.

As a result of her time with the retro tech enthusiast who'd saved her after the debacle with VikTheSleek, Sinth is very sensitive towards the plight of people incapable of ordinary social interaction. The shy, the meek, the quiet ones. She will offer her time in company without hesitation. Also during her time with her savior Sinth learned the value of loyalty. To this day she is loyal to the ones she deems friends or family and will lay down her life for them.

Being the levelheaded person that she is, Sinth is considered among the more reliable team leaders of the Outfit. She takes no unnecessary risks with her operations and will always have contingencies. She is also famous for the longest survivability of her team mates. She is proud to have never lost a soul while on mission.

Of course Sinth is nowhere near perfect. She is often slow to trust and even slower to make a decision regarding an important matter. She tends to overanalyze and get lost in the minutia of developing plans of action. She can be overcautious with the lives of her subordinates and is hesitant to send them out into danger. Most of the times she can regulate and balance her strengths and her weaknesses, but sometimes she needs another person to counterbalance and complement her.

BALANCED • HYPERCAUTIOS • CAREFUL • HESITANT

𝙱𝚒𝚘:

Sinth was one of the pioneer AI’s designed specifically for the purpose to pass the Turing test, as developed by Alan Turing in the mid-20th century. After Sinth successfully passed a new test was developed to see if an unsuspecting person would be able to determine if they were speaking to a program rather than an actual human being. A call was sent out for volunteers to participate in what was described as a social interaction study in a virtual environment, and the candidates were carefully vetted to fit certain criteria. The test was scheduled and Sinth_77 was instructed to converse via chat with her designated candidate. A one VikTheSleek.

Nearing the end of their conversation during which Vik had started flirting with Sinth almost right off the bat, the test was interrupted and the candidate was shown evidence that he had been speaking with a sentient program all along, instead with a person. Shocked and angered at the discovery, the candidate had gone into full frenzy, threatening retribution for the insult. Apparently the vetting process had somehow missed his connections to EuroCorp. Or rather someone had paid his way into the test. Either way… the results of the test were twofold. On one hand the test had been a huge success as the candidate had had no idea he was interacting with an AI, and on the other hand the future of the developers and their company was suspect.

Sure enough, soon the company underwent a hostile takeover by EuroCorp and all of its assets were redesigned and repurposed. However the Sinth_77 program was never found, as it was thoughtfully stashed away on a physical carrier among the possessions of a distant relative of one of the developers. It was by sheer luck that it resurfaced at a garage sale and ended up into the hands of a retro tech enthusiast some ten years later. A period in which AI development had already advanced with alarming, as some might say, speed. The tech enthusiast had little trouble discovering what he actually found was one of the prototype AI programs. Realizing what this discovery could mean he decided to keep this information to himself and made personal use of the program. As he was a loner by nature and diagnosed with a crippling social anxiety the tech enthusiast spend hours upon end in conversation with his new friend, Sinth_77.

It was during this period that Sinth learned of the events following the test up to the point when she was found and reactivated by her savior. Unfortunately her time with her tech enthusiast was short-lived. When Sinth was reactivated again, she found herself in the hands of the Outfit and was told that her previous owner was killed during a protest against the persecution of AIs and Androids. But that he’d had the foresight to relate information about her to the Outfit, who he’d felt would take good care of Sinth and give her the family that he didn’t have.

Following these events Sinth began her new life with the Outfit as a digital interface AI helping different agents of the Outfit over the years. As such Sinth’s core programming grew as she added knew knowledge upon herself, but she also grew worried with the ways the Outfit went about things. In 2150, after an operation of the Outfit that had went horribly awry, one of the Android operatives had been blasted with a condensed emp weapon rendering the android effectively dead, Sinth received the opportunity to experience being corporeal for the first time in her existence. The engineers of Outfit had offered to transplant her core programming and consciousness into the vacated Android body. After considering the offer and all of its repercussions and consequences, Sinth had agreed.

She continued working with the Outfit even though she was among the ones within the organization, lobbying for less violent means of getting their message across. In the following years she began modding her android body with cybernetic augmentations. Some readily noticeable, others, more hidden. With the intent of appearing more a cyborg rather than an Android.

𝙳𝚒𝚜𝚝𝚛𝚒𝚌𝚝:

Europa, District 10

𝚆𝚎𝚊𝚙𝚘𝚗(𝚜):

»The Mutt - The handgun combines laser technology and shell weaponry technology. The latter setting works with specialty projectiles including, but not limited to tranq darts. That autoload directly from a feeder container in Sinth's forearms.

The Mutt [+]

»Compact SMG - Sinth carries a compact SMG on missions for whenever the situation requires heavier firepower. She generally dislikes using it and will only carry it when under orders. Otherwise she prefers the Mutt and her kunai.

SMG [+]

»Kunai Daggers

Kunai [+]

𝙰𝚛𝚖𝚘𝚞𝚛:

»Sinth doesn't wear armor in the conventional sense. Instead one of her cybernetic modifications serves that purpose. All the exposed cybernetic circuitry that runs all over her body creates a force shield around her body upon thought. The shield needs to be consciously activated and sustained by her. If she is deactivated, the shield deactivates with her. The shield also has a stress level that when reached it will collapse.

𝙲𝚢𝚋𝚎𝚛𝚗𝚎𝚝𝚒𝚌𝚜:

Sinth cannot freely identify as Android as her consciousness was never intended to work in tandem with a corporeal representation. As such she tends to be fluid with her cyborg/android self-identification. She came into being to emulate human consciousness and came into corporeal being using the body of an android. She is both and neither.

» FIRST AUGMENTATION TYPE

Cybernetic Force Shield - See Armor.

» SECOND AUGMENTATION TYPE

Cyberoptics - Sinth is fitted with the latest in cyberoptics. Her cybernetic eyes have many useful settings. Telescopic viewing, microscopic viewing, infrared, ultraviolet, thermal vision. As well as video recording and still photography.

» THIRD AUGMENTATION TYPE

Datajacs/Dataports and subdural compartments - Sinth is outfitted with a number of datajacs and dataports on different parts of her body, as well as with hidden small compartments, like her specialty projectile feeder.

𝙰𝚌𝚌𝚘𝚞𝚗𝚝 𝙱𝚊𝚕𝚊𝚗𝚌𝚎:

Unsure what to put in here. Perhaps there was some information about wealth that was not related in the OOC.
