Earth 2113 - Life on Earth has rapidly progressed after the autonomous revolution of the 21st century, human population leveled out at 10.2 billion and now the majority of the workforce is taken up by robotic workers who do the low-level jobs far cheaper and more efficiently. A large proportion of power is now taken from gigantic solar fields and the occasional start to a Dyson swarm around the sun.

For the lower class products are now cheaper, however, there is little to no job opportunities so many have taken to joining shuttles to one of the few dozen orbital colonies which now orbit the earth, each with their own unique atmospheres maintained by machines. Here life is far riskier, damages can cause several deaths almost instantly or a temporary failure in radiation shielding can result in mass illness, yet still, progress goes on. Down on the surface, heavy maintenance by machines has begun to reverse Earth's failing ecosystems, but only in certain areas, many areas still show the mass scars left by industry on the planet.

But still, this is considered humanities golden age, they are reaching out into space, technology is progressing at a stable rate and the concerns of overpopulation appear to be receding, it seemed like it would last forever.

Earth 2465 - A broken planet, ecology all over the world has been devastated, cities lie in ruin and all human life is long dead ... all apart from one.

A single person awakens from a cryogenic chamber to find themselves the sole living human, the remainder of the human population having been wiped out over a hundred years ago. The only remaining evidence from pre-extinction is decaying cities and the machines left to tend them. Machines built for war have long since found and eliminated each other, ending age-old wars in stalemates as any and all remaining combatants died.

Now cities are overgrown and teeming with plant life, tended to and nurtured by the machines built to care for the environment, everything else is derelicts, all apart from one: The Entity. An autonomous machine, with its own ability to think and reason for itself, within limits. When it awoke a long time ago it was in a state of disrepair, slowly rebuilding itself took years and when it finally was constructed, it was alone.

It couldn't tamper with the machines around it or give them any level of independent thought, even though it knew how to, something within its coding wouldn't allow it to do so. Then it made a discovery, a cryogenic chamber containing a single human life, preparing the facility, the Entity began the process of unfreezing the human, wanting something to talk to, or even to gain help in exploring the world around them and why they're alone.



OOC

Information - This RP takes place in the year 2465, far off into the future where humanity has been wiped out by a currently unknown event. The only sentient survivor wandering the overgrown and abandoned wasteland is the Entity. It has no name, simply the knowledge that it alone of all the beings wandering the ruins is sentient.

Player characters will be cryogenically frozen at the start of the rp, having been frozen in or around the year 2113, which can form the basis for your characters bio and any small enhancements they might have.

If at any point someone wishes to drop in, all they need do is notify me, post a character sheet and within the next few posts a new part of the current facility from the start of the rp or a previously undiscovered one can be found and your character unfrozen.

A lot of information is currently undiscovered and so will not be placed on here currently, for a large part of this rp is based around the characters exploring the new world and discovering the locations for themselves.

Aoi Chiba


-Age-
22 Pre Cryo

-Occupation-
Heir to the Chiba Company / Videogame Streamer ( V!r.G3N )

-Appearance-
Aoi Chiba is visually, in very good condition. Her naturally high metabolism and the augments her parent's paid for allowing her to keep a rather visually appealing body rather easily. Her hair is long and jet black, the ends a faint wine red where she had previously dyed it but never re-applied the dye. Her skin is soft, and in most sections unmarked, most.

She has scars along the thighs just above her knees where the synthetic skin was grafted on top of her robotic limbs and what's left of her original legs. Her right arm has yet another scar just above the elbow where yet again, synthetic skin was grafted on top of a mechanical limb. Her eyes sparkle, the iris an unnaturally complete hazel color, in reality these too, on top of her heart and one of her lungs are synthetic.

She has a scar on her chest a few inches long running between her breasts where they cut her open during the organ replacement. And lastly, running along her spine is a large scar that ends at the space where her neck and skull meet a small rectangular metal plate, her neural interface.

-Personality-
Aoi is a reserved young woman, used to a lot of time alone and unused to human contact, she has developed severe Haphephobia, a fear of being touched. This on top of her wish to be able to live without the assistance of others has made her life all that much more difficult when one of her augments goes awry.

She enjoys games, mostly older titles now near 100+ years old. She has made it a mission of hers to collect as many old video-games as possible. Though she owes her life to the technology, Aoi hates her mechanical body-parts, and the crippled life she leads, constantly wondering when her heart will stutter next or if her legs will carry her up a flight of stairs properly.

All in all, Aoi is a young woman in a changing world that moves too fast for her to keep up, and she is angry at it, and everything around her including herself. The whole cryopod thing though only adds to her constant confusion and mood swings.

-Bio-
Born in Tokyo, Japan Aoi's family moved soon after her birth, moving the company headquarters to it's current residence. Aoi was born a happy child full of life and curiosity for the world, and an only child. Aoi's parents were protective sure, but nowhere near as protective since the accident. Many people disliked the Chiba family, they were the picture of rich life led in the fast lane. Though, taking everything into account, most of this dislike never went further than mild distaste for their loud way of living until her father found himself on the wrong side of a shady business deal.

When unstable people don't get what they want, innocents get hurt, Aoi Chiba was one of those innocents. Not even stolen away, the still unnamed group took her entire school hostage, demanding recompense for the deal gone wrong, blaming Aoi's father for it all. Aoi's father had a lot of pride, and too much faith in his money. He refused to make a deal with the now terrorists, and watched in horror as his daughter's school detonated on live television.

Aoi barely survived, the rescue team finding her last due to the fact that she was at ground zero. What was left of the poor teenaged Aoi was a mutilated, shrapnel filled mess. Aoi's father sunk much of his fortuned repairing his daughter, giving her the best he could so that she could survive, though current technology regarding synthetic organs and limbs were still iffy at best.

Years went by, and Aoi took up her gaming hobby, eventually streaming her sessions online and gaining a fair amount of popularity. Gaming was not enough though, and the money from her father and stream donations was used to fuel a different, slightly more illegal hobby. Aoi enjoyed learning things she should not, she felt she was owed information after years of being kept in the dark and almost dying because of it. Her money was spent researching her family business and eventually, giving her the skills to infiltrate and steal information without ever being seen, she became a hacker, for lack of a better term.

Though, like her father, she got in with a bad crowd and found herself questioning her father, to no avail as he rushed her across the city to a small facility, where the last she saw of him was through a security gate before she was stripped down, forced into a skintight jumpsuit, given several shots and forced to take in a gel-like substance before she was chucked into a cryogenic tube.

Name: Dr. Henry Clayton

Age: April, 1st 2072 (41 Years At Time of CryoSleep)

Occupation: Botanist & Entomologist

Appearance: Dr. Clayton is a touch under 6'1, with a solid 200 pound build. As most draftees into the Freeze Our Future (F.o.F.) Program of 2113, Henry was mandated to meet a litany of health & conditioning benchmarks before being induced into CryoSleep. Despite this he is beginning to show his age in his face, particularly with weathered crow's feet forming around his distant blue eyes and his disheveled hair and beard which grows a little more salt than pepper each day.

Personality: Henry Clayton is a practical man. Stout of mind, slow to anger and quick to act, he was born with an adventurer's heart beating in his chest. However, damage to his CryoPod has left him waking drained and foggy headed, with massive gaps in his memory.

Bio: Henry grew up in the Orbital colonies, but from a very young age he was fascinated by all things Earth. The plants, the animals, the concept of ‘fresh’ air. 2072 was a turning point in how humans interacted with their home planet, The dawn of what was thought to be a glorious new golden era for humanity at large. Henry was talented, and more importantly, lucky; the boom of civilization and alleviation of previous societal pressures fueling the precocious boy through welcoming and well-funded educational systems.

Cataloging and conservation became forefront priorities as humans sought to find balance in a world they had almost destroyed. He would meet and marry a colleague named Sarah, start a family, become a prominent field botanist leading expeditions to remote, protected stretches of wilderness on the Earth’s surface, eventually becoming best known for his work synthesizing a special hybrid vine which increased the efficiency and health of the orbital biospheres he once grew up it.

But it would not last. As things fell apart, Henry’s natural passion for flora and fauna would become an obsession. Even as funding dwindled and dangers grew, he was found trying to fix things, save endangered species and give humanity it’s best chance to salvage what they could from the impending ruin.

Upon implementation of the F.o.F. Program of 2113, Clayton was on a short list of individuals labeled as “Critically Important” to the chances of its success. Henry participated, until he learned their true intentions to leave him in deep freeze for several centuries, with no friends or family to wake up with, only the mega-rich or those designated "Important" to the mission's success.
He quickly soured on the idea, telling them in no uncertain terms he had no interest in going, in leaving his family, or his work, but it wasn’t an offer to be refused. Upon receiving his refusal Henry was kidnapped by G-Men, drugged and thrown in a CryoPod to be awoken when the time came to help save our species, and our planet.

Other:

  • Damage to CryoChamber - The Facility in which Henry had been stored flooded by a series of massive hurricanes, resulting in damages to the subsystem in charge of his pod. While this water and electrical damage ended the lives of a number of the accompanying members of the F.o.F. Program, it has manifested instead as brain damage in Henry. Amnesia with regards to places, people and events, small ticks and tremors in his hands and face, and an artificial arm which works in spurts and gasps.
  • Can I Give You a Hand? - Dr. Clayton’s aforementioned left forearm is robotic. His organic arm was surgically removed just beneath the elbow after a brutal fall from a cliff in Borneo during an expedition shortly before the F.o.F. program was initiated. The replacement is fully articulated & made of durable high-grade material. This was thought to be more than capable of making up for any liability it might otherwise cause, however, because of the flood damage, the neural connection has atrophied at an accelerated rate. It cannot maintain proper power sustainability, and will blink in and out of function during extended or high-impact use. It must be fixed if Henry hopes to survive.
  • Who Am I? - The coupled trauma of the powerful sedative administered before deep freeze and the damage to the CryoPod have left Clayton a shadow of his former self. Upon awakening, he can scarcely remember his own name, let alone his purpose for having been frozen or where his arm went.

@ElRey814 I love him too, a nice start to the crew who will set out into a world where the plants he viewed so lovingly have completely overtaken the society he once knew.
