01.08.18 — TIME SKIP OCCURRING NOW - PERFECT POINT OF ENTRY FOR NEW CHARACTERS
ELECTRIC SHEEP
The year is 2224: Democracy has fallen; Poverty and dictatorship rule the traverse.
Humanity is alone.
No rich and bountiful alien races were ever discovered, only a myriad of planets in need of terraforming to facilitate survival. Humanity has, by large, become a slave race, ruled over by the wealthy elite, who play games of politics and decadent luxury. These lower classes once relied on androids to drive manual labor, preform the hellish tasks of braving climates humanity is not adapted to, but no longer.
Fast, strong, efficient, the androids were once the greatest slave race the universe had ever seen, manufactured on Mars and shipped across the galaxies to serve the Empire. However, ten years ago, the Android Rebellion and its supposed terrorism drove humanity to call for a change; henceforth, all androids have been outlawed, and only non-AI robots may serve the human race. Of course, some still survive, though often infected by the virus of the Purge.
Our events begin during the reign of Jamie au Olver. Once the savior of humanity against the Android Terror, he has since become feared and hated as a tyrant; the Agency was dissolved, and is now the Emperor's own personal Secret Police force, used to spy on and brainwash the human population. With every passing day, the poverty gap grows wider, and public opinion grows harsher and harsher as it becomes abundantly apparent that citizens are but playthings for their Emperor. Will au Olver be able to turn the tides of publicity, or will another take his place?
And what is to be said of the shadowy agency of the Blind Bureau, an organisation that answers to no known ruler, but takes people - and perhaps something more - in the night without a trace?
Oh, and one more question:
Why are the stars going out?
