Scifi roleplay plots
Here I'll write any ideas I have that can be considered scifi.
----------------------------------
Utopia. The game that took over the world. With the catchphrase ‘’Become what you were always meant to be’’, it’s no wonder. The game runs on new high technology that transports the players into the game. It’s another world and everything you experience feels as real to you as the physical world does. The game allows players to be what they want to be. They can look how they want to look and even possess powers that aren’t possible in reality. Millions of people log on daily to live the dreams that are inaccessible to them in real life.
There are some rules though. Utopia’s code prohibits violence and it isn’t possible to kill another player. All attacks and acts of aggression just bounce right off, doing no damage. This rule was implemented to make Utopia safe for all players. There’s a battle arena for players who are specifically looking for that but even in there the attacks are quite harmless. It’s just sparring for fun.
Well, the rules just went out the window! Without warning Utopia is attacked by a malicious group that mess with the code. Suddenly violence is not only allowed, it’s encouraged. Not only are the other players a potential danger to you, the games NPCs have turned hostile too. All of a sudden it seems like everything is out to get you. What’s worse, nobody can log off the normal way. The only way out now is an emergency exit through a specific door, originally designed as the final fail safe. As if things aren’t bad enough, there’s the ultimate kicker. The game could now kill you for real. Violence wasn’t possible in Utopia before. The brain can’t differentiate between a virtual death and a real death. There’s very real chance that if killed in Utopia, you won’t wake up anymore.
Utopia descends into absolute chaos. A and B are both stuck in the game and decide to team up for safety as they try to get to the exit.
>>>
The Earth is dying at a rapid phase. In another 50 years or so the first people will begin to die because of it. Heads of nations are desperately trying to work out a solution. And they think they have found it in the form of a new planet with an atmosphere similar to Earth’s. With no time to waste, a team is put together. Each person is a specialist in something, the best in their particular field.
The planet is named Hope due to what it represents to many. The whole world is watching as the crew are launched into space and towards Hope. Their mission: map out the place and determine the possibility of human life being sustainable there.
The team manages to get to Hope without major problems. At first the place seems like a paradise and everyone is eager to explore. But when their ship stops functioning, due to suspected tampering, and team members start going missing the horrible truth about Hope begins to reveal itself. The place is no paradise and they certainly aren’t alone.
