Restless Souls/Summary: Difference between revisions

Time right after the [[12/3|cataclysm]]. Marked by chaos and death.

Green Village is a huge research complex dedicated to environmental-friendly, or "green", technologies and the wide field of genetics.

Muro left a power vacuum in the Syndicate. Kumo was one of who tried to became the next big boss.

:''The ongoing radicalization of both sides and smaller escalations gave WCG the possibility to propagandize the "[[wikipedia:Clash_of_Civilizations|Clash of Civilizations]]".''

Basically the coalition of moderate WCG and Syndicate forces. Either of them can survive alone anymore.

Silver Dawn is a [[wikipedia:Terraforming|terraforming]] project in cooperation with United Space Administration and several research facilities. After nanomachines are inserted into a planetary surface, they start to reproduce themselves and spread over the entire planet. During this, their basic programming drives them to form neural networks [[wikipedia:Body_image|(to be aware of its own structure)]] and diverse sensors (and receiving units) which shall also archive full control over the nanobot collective itself and give this control to outside standing humans. Now it has almost become an artificial multi-cellular organism. The bots can be ordered to form other 'organs' to collect solar energy, creep for all kinds of matter including water, produce rocket fuel and building material, and of course changing the air composition and filter toxins to make it breathable.

==Silver Village==

A WCG research complex for nanotechnology in the former USA. It's newest project: Silver Dawn. WCG tries to abuse it as weapon since nuking ''Camp Sturmanderung'' failed.

 

 

 

Did Sturmanderung really started with Hasegawa and Muro?

'''Hierarchy'''

Many states were already highly indebted. At same time climate damaged agriculture and immovables.

A breakdown was just a matter of time.

In order to prevent that, a ''reset'' seemed the only way out.

They ''banished'' all old debts: covered by dissolving the states; a more resistant agriculture was set up which included new production machines, genetically modified plants, "green towers", [http://phys.org/news/2015-07-hacking-food-chain-silicon-valley.html cellular agriculture] [...] [...]

==Daya Gard==

 

There were strong evidence that the two siphoned off money. About 30 million US dollar. One of Kumo's ''controllers'' found the two in the mountains and burnt them in their cottage. All the money was re-transfered. The baby was rescued by Vendret, another controller. Vendret and the Gards were friends. Vendrent discovered the evidences are fake but cannot trace the person responsible for it. Kumo didn't rehabilitate the Gards within the organization. The zero-tolerance policy is a necessary tool for Kumo to keeps in line. Mistakes based on that policy scare off recruits and longterm employees. Daya is only allowed to live on if she stays at the Syndicate. And so Vendret becomes her stepmother. The girl becomes a lifetime member, officially she has to pay back the debts of her parents. Vendret arranged Daya's training at Camp Sturmanderung. As a Fury she would have someday all the knowledge to escape Kumo and the Syndicate.

 

Due to her loyalty and excellent skills she becomes selected for the Daodan program.

After the cataclysm Kumo calls Days to investigate Green Village. He wants to get WCG's Daodan since Muro's won't share his own capacities with him, all the more since Kumo is pro-BGI. In GV's partial destruction she becomes infected by the Bioc.

Momuto Hasegawa. Current whereabout: unknown.

When a person's neurons get damaged new ones can form. But the continuing work in the shops destroys most of them again. That forces intact neurons to take over. The employees keep functioning until they reach a critical number of neurons. The “co-processors” receive short treatment before and after work. The brain damage get crucial after about 15 months.

Nishio has already worked for the RE shop over a year until he accidentally finds out that he hasn’t much time left.

 

''Co-processors'' can usually work from anywhere. They only need a brain-interface, provided by the Syndicate, a fast internet connection and access to an 3D-printer. Besides research ''copros'' also carry out repair jobs. A transport drone can drop and pick-up a package from nearly anywhere. This shifts the rest risk from Syndicate facilities to their replaceable employees.

When the local TCTF had a random check on his account, they got suspicious. Soon the cops sniff a chance to take down the shop and to learn more about the Syndicate. Nishio is promised to receive medical treatment based on technology that is normally prohibited by the WCG.

A few of the symptoms of the brain damage include problems to keep focused, loss of memories, inability to sleep. Because of the brain damage neuro-enhancer have an increased effect on these employees than on other people. Slow motion thinking is often a by-effect when the drugs aren’t applied anymore. The only positive effect human co-processors receive is the ability communicate with experimental brain interfaces more smoothly. But that help them barely in their daily life.

 

Despite the genetic risk factors on paper, Nishio has a naturally strong immune system which allows him to withstand a Bioc infection somewhat longer.

However the Bioc prevents a complete healing let alone becoming an Imago.
