You All Wake Up In A Cryochamber IV
« on: March 23, 2011, 02:53:11 pm »

AHM BACK BITCHES  8)
YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT YOU CAN BITE MAH SHINY METAL ASS.

Anyway, let's play an RTD in the original You All Wake Up In A Cryochamber setting.

Quote from: Schilcote
This RTD is going to be different from my other two. Unlike Netland and Hell Desk, this one isn't going to have any kind of predetermined plot. Instead of a closed system with some mobility inside of it, you're going to be exploring an open sandbox. There are no set goals besides survival- kind of like DF really.

Like the title says, you're going to wake up in suspended animation aboard a small derelict starship.

You can be:

"Human"
Or at least you look like it. You may or may not be Homo Sapiens of Sol, but you're close enough that it doesn't matter.

Android
Think Data. You are a machine, but you're built to 'be human', or at least effectively approximate humanity.

Robot
There's a series of books I read about on TvTropes about sentient fusion-powered tanks. "Bolo" I think it was. You'd be something like that, not at all humanoid in form but still possessing free will, personality, and intelligence. Wall-E or Johhny Five would be a more anthropomorphic example. KITT and the robots from Suspended would also fit here. Of course, you can't be anything terribly large.
Also, I'd really like if you drew a picture of what you're supposed to look like. Just use MS Paint or something.

Computer A.I.
The opposite end of the spectrum to Human. You don't even have a defined physical form- you're just an artificial mind who can reside in anything that can store data and execute machine code. HAL for example.


I think six players will be enough. None of you will have any recollection of identity besides your name, which will be your Bay12 username.

SO SIGN UP. NAO

I dunno, you guys have survived Thomas the tank engine, golems, zombies, nuclear explosions, laser whales, and being on the same team as ragnarock.  I don't think something as tame as a world ending rain of lava will even slow you guys down.

As for me, when shown on a screen, I am but a floating head/face with no specific features.
If the computer is too primitive, I use ascii to visualize the head/face.

Well, he wouldn't actually be a Tau drone, because this universe has no Tau.

Unless he fell through an inter-dimensional plot hole.

EDIT:

Anyway, two more characters and we can start.
