Electrons - A Story of Robots and Human Demise

"How long can we trust the security of our doors and windows? How long do we have before those mechanical monsters burst through our security and butcher us all? We are out of time!"

Welcome to the Dawn of New Societies, 2059. The world is currently at a stand-still, debating whether humans are an effective way to keep the World turning... or to continue with the Robotic Integration Program. The world has progressed through time, and the government has been focusing all of its money towards one thing - Mechanicalization. Bringing forth a new dawn of machines and replacing the humans. After 2059, the New Society will be chosen, and we'll be forced to either succumb to the robots... or die. Welcome to New York, where you are free to be whatever you could dream of.

This RP is an open-world Roleplay, and you are free to create a story anywhere in AMERICA. You are free to literally be whatever form of human or robot you would want to be. Thug, politician, resistance leader, it doesn't matter. You can come up with any story from a day to day life, to a night time terrorist plot on a government building. Please keep everything detailed and interesting. CS can change, so be checking the OOC daily.

The Dawn of New Societies

After Robert J. Keeln created the first Generalizing Robotic Assistant back in 2043, people have been building and programming robots to help them with daily life. So far to the point that the government have been building Sentry-Bots to move around and do what their soldiers can't. The World Powers have come together to decide once and for all what the fate of the Human Society has remaining. If they were to choose a Robot Society, where humans don't do anything, then they would release their millions of public bots onto the streets of American cities to do what humans do. If they decide upon a regular Human Society, then the robots would be held tight in a factory... until future use...

While the world waits, a group of human resistance members, known as Electrons, broke into the Robot Generalization Inc. and reprogrammed each and every bot, hacking it with precise work. Each bot becoming a wireless killing machine. The humans of the world could only watch in horror as the robots walked through each city and town, murdering every soul and life to be found. The government finally realized that their robots could not be depended on... neither could the humans that hacked them. They send in the military, but they are pushed back into the hearts of states. That is, until the Electrons step in and help dispatch them, trying to earn the trust of the government.

So who are you? A hero, trying hard to stop the robot armies from trampling the major cities? An artificial-intelligence run bot with a mind of its own? A bystander who watches as the world stands to burn? We'll soon find out...

OOC

Rules - You have to follow unless permanent removal from RP

1. Please respect each other and follow these rules.
2. I, and GMs, rules go. No questions asked.
3. Please do not use/come up with overpowered weaponry. Doesn't matter if it is a simple pistol or not. Be creative.
4. If you are going to have an interaction with a different person IC, please contact them OOC first, just so I know ahead of time.
5. Please have fun!
6. Please make all IC posts DETAILED. At least a paragraph.
7. You can have a maximum of 5 characters, but if you want more, please PM me.

Robots and AI Programming
This is extra in case you planned on playing as a robot. You can be hacked and reprogrammed, but when creating a Robot CS, choose a specific Artificial Intelligence.

Artificial Intelligence Personality - Berzerk
You are a total monster. This AI was programmed the fastest, with little firewall and protection on it, making it very easy to hack. Carrying this AI will cause your personality to be a lot more on edge and dangerous, and any enemies you run across are feared by you.

Artificial Intelligence Personality - Intelligent
You prefer to be on the smart side of things. Keeping your studies up, and staying personal. Hard to hack and reprogram, but you are not as keen to violence.

Artificial Intelligence Personality - Combat
Your main focus is the battlefield. Controlling your senses to fight off any and all enemies. Control and kill. Equally easy to hack and reprogram.

Government

The government at the time is run by a team of 50 politicians, one from each state. In order for a new movement to be passed on, 90% of the team has to agree on it. Other than that, they are extremely stuck up and many of them are born into the government. The New Society Capitol is built around the north eastern coast, on the border of New York and Maine.

Current Government Members that are still alive
James R. Yurend - New York Rep.
Ryen I. Jones - Rhode Island Rep.
Dan K. Isaac - Washington Rep.
Mikhael J. Azhrukkaahl - International Societies Rep. (foreign representative)
Sean R. Johns - Florida Rep.
Tet M. Kyles - Texas Rep.

You can become a member of the Political Society by putting it in your CS with the state you plan on representing!

As you can tell, this is a futuristic RP set in a Sci-Fi world. The setting of the RP is America, but there is no "static" location for the RP. You can be anywhere in America, just not international. You're free to do whatever you wish in the world, but keep it in a survival format. The world you live in is currently being overrun by Robots who are hell-bent on killing you. RP as if you were trying to survive in the world. Please keep AI's from being OP, otherwise I'll be forced to remove them. I'm not going to limit you on weaponry, but anything I feel is OP will be removed. Otherwise, feel free to create your own weapons. You can also create your own AI's, but please run them by me in a PM before you add them to the Character Sheet.

Rules -

Rules are a little bit lenient here, but don't disrespect them.

1 - No Godmodding. No exceptions.
2 - If you have to settle something between you and another person, please keep it to PM's and not the OOC.
3 - Keep things detailed, at least a paragraph.
4 - You can only have 3 character sheets, but if I see that you're not keeping up with them, I'll remove them.
5 - Stay friendly and nice.

Artificial Intelligence
Here's a list of the Artificial Intelligences you can use. Feel free to create your own and PM me with them. I might even add them to the list.

Strength - Mainly used by labor bots. Can lift things 2x size of the robot.
Intelligence - Mainly used by computer processer bots and human interaction AI's. Can be used to hack other AI bots and computers.
Berzerk - Mainly used in the military. Mostly used for its combat effectiveness.
Technician - Similar to Intelligence, except it is mainly used by Repairbots. Can be used to repair other AI bots and computers.

Fallout - Last Legacy of Vault Dwellers

"A new world... a changed world... a FREE WORLD!"

The year is 2087. Ten years ago, the world powers dropped nukes on each other to ensure that there would be no victor to the unending war that was going on at the time. This left the world scarred with radiation and fire as the ruins of the population struggled to hold on to life.

Many people survived by living in underground Vault-Tec vaults, colossal shelters to house thousands of people. After the nukes fell, many of the vaults opened up to allow its inhabitants to see the free world that had been opened. All they saw was ruin, hell, and death.

Because there was no government, no society, no economy, it was every man for himself. People fought for safety and leadership, causing the humans to split and form groups and tribes. On one side of the playing field, there is the Brotherhood of Steel, a group of power armored super soldiers fighting for an independent world with freedom for everyone. On the other side, was the Enclave. A private military corporation created to run America and purify the world of the radiation and mutants.

In between was everyone else. The Ghoul Society, a group of harmless ghouls set out to survive through the current apocalypse. The Super Mutant Armies, normally found on the east coast, but they can be seen around downtown San Francisco. They cannot be trusted. The Android population, synthetic humans whose job is to work. Many of them run as mercenaries and emergency escorts. Then, there are the Vault Dwellers. Groups of organized people from vaults who main focus is to find other vaults and see the remnants of the once frivolous society.

There of course are the robots, built in the pre-war era for safety and help. Mr. Handy and Mr. Gutsy - built for combat effectiveness. Protectrons, used as an alternative police force. Sentry Bots, massive robot war machines used only in the military and crowd control. Beyond that, the world is a futuristic 1950's playground of ash.

Weapon tech is much more advanced, bringing laser weaponry and plasma guns. Weapons that use Microfusion and Electrons to fire extreme bolts of fire or deadly plasma. There are of course regular bullet weapons, assault rifles, grenade launcher, flamethrowers, pistols, chainsaws, shotguns, etc.

The world is set in San Francisco, far west in California. Are you the last hope for humanity? Or just another raider whose job is to steal and kill anyone and everyone. We'll soon find out.

Guidelines

As you can tell, this is a Fallout based RP. If you've ever played Fallout, feel free to skip most of this. If not, keep reading.

What is fallout?
FALLOUT is a Nuclear Post-Apocalyptic Role Playing Game. There have been a total of 4 games in the main series.

What is the setting?
This RP is taking place in San Francisco, but you can of course travel out to just about ANYWHERE in California (see rules for boundaries).

Fallout games can take place just about anywhere. Fallout 3 took place in DC and New Vegas took place in well... Nevada/Vegas.

Why is the tech so limited?
Fallout is based around a 1950's society, so they only put most of their technology in weapons tech and armaments.

Why did they only care to upgrade weapons?
Well, the world was at WAR! They either had to keep up with the arms race... or die...

How come this only takes place in America?
There are a lot of different fan created storylines about international Fallout lifestyles. You can google "Fallout [country name here] storyline" and I'm sure you'd find some.

Last question - how do the Fallout storylines tie in?
This is a hard one. Fallout 1 was the very first game in the ENTIRE series, as it took place just after the Nukes fell on America (October 23rd, 2077). This RP takes place 10 years after the nukes fall, and just after the first Vault Dweller exits his Vault. If you really want to know how it all ties in, you should read up on the Fallout Wiki (www.fallout.wikia.com)

Rules

-1- There are no vehicles that are functional, whatsoever. I'm sorry.
-2- Power Armor is only limited to Brotherhood of Steel and Enclave members ONLY. If you play as a former member to either of these groups, you have an exception.
-3- If you choose to play in one of the major groups (BoS and Enclave), you HAVE to be an Initiate.
-4- There is no Karma system here. You can either be a hero, or an enemy. Either way, be who you want to be.
-5- VATS doesn't exist here. If you don't know what VATS is, move along.
-6- Please do not be an asshole. Please. I beg of you. Please.

The Runners! - Time Travel

Bazzyboss said
Forgive me for my long time making a character, I'm new to roleplaying. I know it's a hunter, but I'm still pinning down the backstory.The Traveller weapons look nice, one question, do both groups know each others weapons and are improvising?

It's fine really, I've been focusing on other RPs, but I do check back here. The Hunters do not understand Traveller weaponry, but they have captive Travellers that try to explain it. The Travellers weaponry is built from Hunter weaponry, so yes, they do understand how it works and they both use it to a certain extent.

The Runners! - Time Travel

Bazzyboss said
Thanks, I think I will play as a Hunter, hopefully we can get some more players. I'm guessing that a lot of the Travellers will probably loot weapons from dead Hunters, so they might use the same weapons?But Damn, that Nomad Pistol is a must have.

Haha yeah, it's a great arsenal of super weapons, but many of them are not portable, and the prototype hunter guns are known to malfunction. Still, this is a great opening. I'll finish up the Traveller weapons in half an hour.

The Runners! - Time Travel

Bazzyboss said
Hi, just some questions, this looks a bit interesting.1.Do the people in the past (before time travel was invented) know about time travel? I mean if all these rich people can just go back, wouldn't everyone there know people from the future, and share technology and stuff like that? Unless there is a law to keep it secret.2.Are there laws strictly made so that people do not change things too much in the past? Because this roleplay Is just asking for the time paradoxes.3. What kind of weapons are there, and the tech level of the world at 2037? And are there any specific Hunter anti-traveller weapons?Thanks for reading.

Thank you for asking! I did leave a lot of space for questions.

1. The machines that allow time travel (phantomgates and keyholes) cannot go past the 20th century in time. This was built in after an incident during the Civil War.

2. Yes, but many people ignore these laws as the time travel mechanisms are in a mode/position that do not allow interaction with anything during the time that they went back to. To make it simple, it is impossible to go back in time and kill your grandfather. You CAN, however, interact with other time travellers who are there at that time period. So, if you're in 1984, and a hunter goes back in time to 1984, you can kill him.

3. Well, I've been coming up with weaponry as I continue to work on this roleplay. I do already have a set arsenal for each side.

Hunters Weaponry

Each and every hunter comes packed with these weapons, and they can always get more.

The Anti-Matter Rifle
Designed in 2034 and finished in 2036, this weapon fires DEADLY 1.25cm grenade shells that have been filled and coated with the most dangerous material ever discovered on the human planet! Antimatter. Anything that gets shot by this in close to medium range proximity can not only be killed, but their bodies can completely disintegrate, leaving nothing but ash.

I'll find a picture later.

The Nomad Assault Pistol-Magnum
Designed in 2023 and finished in 2027, this sidearm is a nifty weapon that switches from an average pistol firing 5.65mm rounds to a hand cannon firing 7.88 rounds in a click of a button! This weapon is standard for ALL hunters, and is an instant kill to any part of the body, besides limbs of course. This weapon can be modified to fire 8.0 rounds, and you can completely remove the magnum part of it, making it just a regular pistol. This thing is called the nomad because of its mobility. The magazine can be locked into place automatically reloaded in a matter of seconds, making it one of the most reliable pistols ever created. BUT it does have its downsides. Firing 5.65mm and 7.8 rounds can cause it to jam VERY easily, and the ammunition is very expensive at the time.

The Punisher - Assault Cannonrifle
Designed in 2037, and prototypes are being... "released," the Cannonrifle fires 8.68mm magnesium cylindrical rounds at a max rate of 45 bullets per second, with a magazine size of 130. This weapon is incredibly heavy, and many hunters only use it in extreme cases. It does work as a minigun, in some cases.

The Behemoth
Designed in 2022, and finished in 2034, this weapon is a gigantic laser cannon that is so powerful, that it emits EMP signals and can go through time. This weapon runs on solar energy cells, compared the hunter's Electronic-Battery cells. They are stronger, but they drain twice as fast and take 3x as longer to charge up in time for combat. This weapon is outlawed and only used in the military, but the hunters have got a hold of 3 in the past 5 years.

Travellers Weaponry

The Tesla Cannon
Designed in 2033, and finished in 2037, this weapon is similar to the behemoth, except it fires electricity, rather than lasers. This weapon runs on Electron-Surge recharges, and are hard to obtain.

Hunter and Traveller Technology

Hunters and Travellers use similar technology, and they share a lot of the same ideas with it.

- Hunters -

The Killbot Model 1.33
The Killbot was an experiment built in 2023, but never released until 2035 to the Hunters for a private deal. The Killbot is a mechanical war machine, built entirely from coltan, making it both bulletproof and immune to heat/cold damage. I modeled it after the terminator and RoboCop, imagining them combined. The Killbot has a Nomad pistol built into its right shoulder, for quick, concealed fire. Built into its chest is a modified Punisher, with a higher magazine of 500 rounds. His arms contain a 1.25mm grenade launcher, but not the anti-matter rifle.

The killbots are very vulnerable to explosives. They can be dispatched by a quick 3 bullets to the processor in its head. It is very slow due to it carrying massive amounts of fire power, and they can be shut down by an EMP. Intelligent travellers can reprogram and hack them.

The Micro-Targeting Chip
This little device was designed and built in 2016, but never released until 2028. This chip is standard issue for all Hunters, and it allows for easy targeting of Travellers, due to Infrared Sensors. This chip cannot be turned off, so it is difficult to see in daytime assaults. This chip can be disabled by an EMP, and it can be removed by a Chip-Reproccessor. The chip CANNOT target robots or mechanical enemies. Only human travelers.

-Travellers-

The Autoloader Mechanized War Machine
The Autoloader was a mechanical suit of super armor used to dispatch enemy soldiers during the Korean War, being designed in the late 1950's and the final model completed was back in 2019. The Travellers were able to obtain the schematics and have stolen a handful of them. They can also be built from scrap metal and parts of destroyed Killbots. The Travellers currently own and running a "Mech Factory," where they work to build these super machines.

The Autoloader Mk. 1 is fit with a tesla cannon and covered in titanium framed, 3 inch steel armor. The Mk. 2 is fit with a Mega-Gun and 2 Anti-Matter rifles. The Mk. 2 is clad in regular 2.3 inch coltan armor, and is very rare to find or be used in combat. The Mk. 3 is fit with a super-colliding rock crush for quick grinder kills on close range targets. The Mk. 3 is also the most defended one, with titanium framed 6.7 inch steel armor with a coltan base, meaning the Mk. 3 is EXTREMELY slow in movement.

Signal Transmitter

This was a stolen piece of scrapped Hunter technology that the Travellers took into new bases. Designed in 2007 to find illegal travel frequencies, it was scrapped in 2009, but the Travellers were able to get their hands on one before it was gone. They took it apart and rebuilt it, making it able to detect when and where a Hunter is at all times... provided the hunter is using a Phantomgate.

Lightning Sight
Similar to the targeting chip, this sight can be attached to any weapon for quick location of Hunters, as long as they give off body heat. No body heat, no target.

I'll work on the rest of them later. Tech will be uploaded soon.

The Runners! - Time Travel

Welcome to The Runners RP.

Chronological Timeline

1896 - Time Travel is introduced, but never researched, nor worked on.

1938 - 1988 - Time Travel is proposed and researched. By 1954, the world’s first time travelling object, a paper clip, goes forward 15 minutes into the future.

2002 - Time Travel is sold as a personal novelty for those who can afford it.

2004 - The World Time Travel Inc. is broken into, and it’s records and documents are used for illegal time travel.

2005 - The FBI creates a section of officers known as “Time Hunters.” Their job - find and arrest illegal travellers through time and location.

2007 - The Time Hunters is disbanded, causing a large amount of public worry and government disbelief.

2018 - The former members of the Time Hunters band together to form the “League of Rogue Hunters” and plan to kill all illegal time travelers, with secret government funding.

2037 - World powers clash to try and conquer time travel. They fail.

Backstory
The year is 2037. The world is in a frenzy as they try to stop Time Travel. You are either a traveller or a hunter. Hunters kill the travellers. Travellers run from the hunters, or they stay and fight them off. Either way, both sides are unstoppable.

The hunters are coming to kill all travelers, whether illegal or not. The UN has declared war against time travelers, and they have funded all of their money on the “League of Rogue Hunters.” No one knows where they will be next, but they will use any force they can get their hands on.

Time travel can only be accessed in two ways - a Phantomgate or a Keyhole. Phantomgates are portable, but they can only last 3 - 4 travels. Keyholes are not portable, but they can used an infinite amount of times. Choose your poison.

Hunters are trained and taught in Hunter Embassies. Travellers should beware of these.
