Paradigm
The Experiment...
Paradigm city was a model…an experiment that would backfire. Created 15 years ago,to imitate what would be Utopia between machines and humans. It was at this time Veronica was created, seemingly flawless in every aspect, and was the first advanced artificial intelligence of the time. She obeyed her "father" and creator. He fed her information and knowledge bit by bit making sure she would not become too knowing.
However, after his death Paradigm's existance would change forever. Over night Veronica seemed to gainknowledge that would take centuries for one man to learn. She took control of the Robots and would destroy half of Paradigm to bend them to her will...all in the name of logic.
By now the war between machine and man is seemingly over excluding those who riot ever so often, but are shut down within minutes. People cower now and hide, or they stay in the shadows, plan and wait for the time humans will take back what is theres.
These are the factions of Paradigm and their standing...
The Bots- Controlled by Veronica hold loyalty to her alone. Seeing as humans have destroyed the world to date, it seems only logical that they should no longer have control over their own lives. There are also robots which fight on the side of the humans, however they are few and far between.
The Hackers- They run rampant in Paradigm. The main technological defense against the deadly robots who hunt them.
Mercenaries/Assassins- You can find many of these silent killers in Paradigm. They hold no loyalty to anyone, only the highest bidder.
The Enforcers- They are Veronica's loyal mercenaries/assassins, who will stop at nothing to honor their loyalty to her. They have a chip placed in their head which Veronica uses to track them. They also can have nanos running through their bloodstreams that increase their healing, strength, agility, ect
Then there are those who cower in fear and live their lives day to day as if nothing had changed; paying higher taxes and fees, being brutalized and beaten by robots.
However, the time has come that the human race stand and fight against technology. Who will you stand with..
Setting
Paradigm is full of large domed buildings each highly advanced in all the latest technology and software. There is the center of town where there are your everyday supermarkets,coffee shops, and more. However in the town square there is a large monitor; this is where Veronica speaks to the people of Paradigm.
In the North of Paradigm is where the seemingly wealthy live, here you can find the men and woman who hold esteemed jobs in the government (which has a poor foundation) as well as those wealthy business owners.
In the South, you will find the desolate parts of Paradigm, they are mainly inhabited by those hiding or on the run from the government/Veronica.
