Bio

New roleplay: https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/189457-the-eye-of-the-needle-where-fantasy-and-sci-fi-collide/ooc

Hey, I'm Catharyn! I joined the Roleplayer Guild on 2nd Feb 2011, then rejoined on the 17th Jan 2014 after Guildfall.

I was active every day until late 2015, accruing (i think) around 7k posts across dozens of roleplays. Then, I started working and had to gradually slow down my RP schedule. In 2017, I officially went on hiatus when other commitments got fully in the way of roleplaying.

This continued until the COVID-19 pandemic hit, when I suddenly realised I had a lot more free time in lockdown! So in mid-2020, I returned to the Guild with a vengeance. I also managed to get The Cradle 1x1 off the ground - a story i've had percolating for almost a decade.

My posting schedule has slowed down a bit now that the world has opened up again. I still love science fiction, fantasy and espionage themes, and generally aim for around 300 words per post.

Siphran it seems your character's SRTU and Venator's Serious Crime Division overlap quite a lot, if we are both law enforcementy types perhaps we should merge these departments as they both seem to be top tier crime investigation.


Sounds good.

"I'm calling a departmental merger Ladies, Gentlemen, Aliens and Minds."

In other news, I've given the dangerous droids code names as you can see on the front page. BESC is very interested in seeing these robots destroyed because they all have sensitive information that dates back centuries. Very dark secrets about Babylon and BESC itself. Secrets that will help the adventurers on their eventual quest toward the main story-line's conclusion. They're offering a massive reward for the safe return of the droid's memory core without it being viewed or opened in any way. If the memories are tampered with (AKA if you've found out what the Rampant Minds have hidden away), it will ping up for BESC, even if you are miles away. You will forfeit your reward and they will want you dead, badly. Good luck to all those that try, these droids are not to be trifled with. You'll need a big team of people, equipment, vehicles and some serious weaponry to stand a chance against them. It may not look like it in the pictures, but most of these droids are massive. I'd imagine if they were found to be in the desert they'd hide by letting sand build up over them etc. I'll leave you guys to work out the particulars.

How it'll work is when you get close to killing one of the Droids, i will Private Message you the secret, which will most likely be in the form of a video log or data stream etc, you know the drill. Then you can work that whole segment into your RP post so that all your characters experience it when you approach the downed robot and access its memory core through a datapad. Gonna be hard work for me but totally worth it. Guys please let me know if something here doesn't make sense or you have any questions at all, i promise i won't bite...hard. (Austin Powers joke)

FYI, this is like a side agenda. Killing these droids is not compulsory in the slightest. Just thought it might be quite interesting.

And Dar too? Hes on the first page.


Of course, this is Darik Amst Herath we're talking about! I assume nothing much has changed?
Accepted Sparx

I like this idea. This would be a good way for BESC to keep tabs on ROC incase they tried to do some shady business. Is it safe to say that unregistered cards are often used when conducting illegal transactions then?


That'd be correct
Of course corporations don't use one credit card, that'd be silly. They use online banking basically, wiring money. I'd imagine BESC might have a handle on that too unless it was done carefully through specialized software or through lots of different hands.

Robert is filthy rich. He will make it rain on more than one occasion. Speaking of which, what is the currency in Outremer and what do we call it?


The currency is the Babylon Sterling. It exists purely in credit so there are no notes or coins to speak of. Everybody has a card which contains all their life's earnings; most are activated by fingerprint and there are multiple failsafes to standard issues to prevent robbery. This card form has also been rumored to allow BESC to keep track on everyone's location and spending habits.

I didn't like that sentance. D:


Don't worry, i'm kidding.

Tesla is accepted.
Yep, in fact the whole roleplay is a vehicle for me to preach good money management
Two of my characters will be fairly poor. One because he doesn't make much money and one because he spends money faster than he steals it.
Terra Libertas definitely.
I've added an AI section to the OP. BE WARNED that these rogue droids are incredibly dangerous, pursue at your own risk.
