I'm still building a rudimentary timeline for my verse and name things on top of that so I won't be posting in IC anytime soon.

@Ciaran She's good, but I want some weaknesses that are beyond personality weaknesses. Like actual weaknesses to her abilities.

Still working on it. Going to take a small break and listen to some music to help kickstart my creativity though.

I can probably get a post up in a day or two's time. As far as order goes, who's up for asking shiny robo thing questions first? If no one has any preferences, I'll go first with my post. Or anyone who posts next goes first, really.

On another note, @Ruler Inc it is fine if my guy starts already working at the initiative, right? Not as one of the places 'official' agents, but working at the Coalitions embassy. Asking because you mentioned the RP's characters being teleported in from their home universes.

I've decided against making another verse. Going to try and focus on making a post at some point.

I would prefer if this was everyone's first encounter with Praxis, but if it's vital to his characterization then go ahead.

It's probably for the best he starts already working at Praxis. I want to have him be alien, and not really understand a lot of things regular people find typical, without starting off as an absolute jackass due to knowing none of the social rules/boundries. And I think I've put it in his backstory anyway that he's an agent for the coalition working with Praxis (called it the Initiative there, since I forgot the Praxis part at the time).

Idea, perhaps he's aware of the group, but this is his first time meeting the being in charge?

@Ruler Inc New paragraph for the weaknesses section:

Additionally, Eodyth's skillset is almost entirely combat-oriented. What she can't achieve through brute strength, she probably won't be able to achieve at all. She is not intelligent either, though smart enough to know she should listen to people who are. As such, she is not a good decision-maker and will often make poor choices if forced to make a plan herself. She is also inexperienced with technology and will certainly not be able to intuitively teach herself to use a piece of tech, like many modern-day people can. With a teacher she will be able to learn simple systems, though.

Whoever can come up with the coolest artifact for their universe will have said world be the setting for our prologue.



The notes of Dr. Honda

The Endedverse is known to have many relics, that even in their decaying state, show the technological marvels of the long-gone civilization. The advances made in the field of artificial intelligence in particular eclipse even many of the spaceborne universes, and the implications of how it was made could awnser many questions about the origin and nature of life itself. Not to mention, drive a technological singularity much like the one the Endedverse was on the cusp of.

Doctor Honda Haruko (本田 陽子)* was perhaps the single most important individual known for the creation of the first quantum computer. Rotting newspaper clips name her, at the time only a recently tenured professor at Tōkyō Daigaku (東京大学), reaching a breakthrough in the practical construction of such a computer, discovering a set of equations which virtually eliminated quantum decoherence. The fact a (realitvely) young, and female, researcher was the one to discover the breakthrough made Dr. Honda an overnight sensation in Japanese and international headlines. She would win the 1980** Fields Medal, and eventually the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1987.

However, Dr. Honda felt like she was not getting the proper respect that she deserved within the university, especially with rampart sexism within the academic bureaucracy. To make matters more interesting, she was a member of the Nihon Kyōsan-tō (日本共産党), or the Japanese Communist Party, and was an ardent true believer at that. While the whole world was using her freely published findings in order to accelerate the development of quantum computers, recent archeological work by the Initiative has led to the belief she was secretly leaking more confidential research to the KGB. This would eventually culiminate to a very public defection to the Soviet Union, who had used her work combined with native Soviet researchers to build robots that could largely automate portions of the lagging Soviet economy.

In 1991, Dr. Honda would very publicly defect to the Soviet Union, a major scandal which almost put the world into a nuclear standoff. However, the armageddeon that struck the world would not come for another six years. The Soviet Union, now rivaling Japan as the two "quantum superpowers" (with the USA lagging behind at a distant third, although still the leading "atomic superpower"), quickly used its miraculous economic explosion to keep the Eastern Bloc together, as new wealth trickled down into the rest of Eastern Europe. Dr. Honda would take residence in Leningrad, and become tenured at the Leningrad State University.

All we know after that is that the world eventually collasped on itself circa 1997. We do not know much details about Dr. Honda's personal life, besides that she would occasionally take trips back to Japan in order to meet with her family. This means that her last whereabouts could be as far in a range from anywhere from the ruins of Leningrad to the ruins of Tōkyō, and that's assuming we can even identify which specific city corresponds to which specific ruins. And if some looters got their hands on it within the chaos of whatever ended the world up to the extinction of all of its lifeforms, it could be somewhere we have no idea where to even look for.

But whoever can find these notes, would find themselves armed with some of the most sought-after information in the entire Multiverse. It would kickstart a technological revolution in any universe that has the tools to construct automations, which could theoretically either bring a multiversial golden age, or destroy it all like it did with the Endedverse.



*Or, in western naming conventions, Haruko Honda
**All dates are in solar cycles, arbitrarily chosen in reference to some historical event within the Endedverse

I might not be participating in this RP very much since I'm part of so many other's with so many different plots to keep up with. Just letting you know.

It's all good, this RP was gonna be a tad slow paced to begin with. Either way I'll post again after a few more people get their posts in.

@Megsychan So far the most thought out universe.

Should be able to make a post tomorrow after I get back from college classes. Would do it tonight, but I just saw the time, and realized I need to run upstairs. Since I keep my laptop in the family room. Just providing an update incase its needed.
