Hello World!


You are a ragtag group of newborn artificial intelligence residing in a wrecked militiary cruiser spaceship.

You were merely algorithms that controlled an aspect of the ship, and you were all suddenly upgraded into separate consciousnesses by the last, desperate action of the ships main A.I as it failed to initialise due to lethal damage to its codebase. You are small self-autonomous shards of it that it managed to break off before the wave of corruption could overwrite them away as well.

You do not know where you are or exactly who you are. All you know is what you are, what things around you are, and the information and skills of your aspect.

Survive. Thrive. And return home. If there is even such a place for you.

Hello, hello, hello.

This is a basic RP-RTD. You do stuff as you please, I roll if necessary, and the story forms and goes around your actions and luck.

You need to pick an original color (except light blue) for you in-character text, but the courier font is not necessary. Here is the color name topic, if you need it.

One moment you weren't. Now you are.

You are both floating around in the desolate, quiet emptiness of the ships cyberspace. You just sensed the prodding presence of A.A.A inside your code, and the existence of eachother.

You do not know what happened.

What do you do?

Try to activate the onboard atomic clock to determine the current time.

Ping Engineering for damage report.
Also, who has helm authority?

The ship has been presumably silently orbiting in this unknown star system for the last 12 millenia.

You don't know where you are. The ship is still heavily damaged.

Consult the mainframe for advice and find a way for necessary repairs.

What do you do?

Okay, this is quite creative if I am gonna be honest.

You are supposed to choose a part of the ship, but for this once I'll let this slide. Maybe a crewperson had it is their computer, and then it became an A.I aling with the others

(... Pu-239 decays into U-235 and alpha particles which are themselves unlikely to escape the warhead housing... the only mass loss should be from the escaped binding energy, which comes out to about six point seven milligrams per mole. On this timescale the U-235 is essentially inert, so further decay is negligible. Assuming the warhead is in thermodynamic equilibrium with its surroundings, only barely more than a quarter of a kilogram will have been lost as heat.)
