[quote=@WanderingSpirit] Since no one has taken up the idea publically, I would be willing to build an Artifical Intelligence faction that would (hopefully) fit into this interesting roleplay. Of course, that is if you are willing to accept me joining~ (On the side note, is Virtual Reality achieved by now? As currently in 2300, we have the capabilities of developing superhuman AIs at this rate which is a testament of how far our technology has developed. So can I assume the technology for VR has been around for quite a while now? ) [/quote] VR is actually a fairly integral part of 24th century society. There's an odd sort of middle class that's been created in most places to keep a system still recognizable as capitalism going, and none of these middle class people have practical jobs (some act as administrators for office work performed by simple AIs, some are artists, etc). VR is, aside from being a huge phenomenon in this class that lets them feel like something is happening in their lives, necessary to keep the lower classes from revolting. If someone plays some VR MMO in their spare time, they won't be organizing against corporate or the government. As for your question about an AI faction, while not at all impossible (one of my major characters is an AI), AIs in this society are considered subhuman and used as slaves of all types. This has been the case since essentially the initial creation of sapient AI. So that fact might mess up your plans, but if it doesn't or you can work around it then by all means go for it.

[/quote] Yes, but nothing's been terraformed since the lowest estimate for terraforming Mars is 1,000 years (the actual realistic estimate is 100,000). There's no magical genesis device or vaugely-explained nanobots yet, it's all throwing comets and bombing stuff with algae. Realistically, nothing is ever going to be terraformed in this RP. Unless I go mad or something.
