( MEMES ) TEST DRIVE >> 7
Like it or not, you've been dragged from your world into the sanctum. It's a pretty nice city, all things considered--sci-fi, high-tech, glamourous.... Except, of course, for the giant dome encircling it, and the threat of glitching, contaminated zombies at your door. Looks like humanity's built itself a fortress that looks suspiciously like a cage, too. Toss in the odd memory blanks and the everpresent logo of Bifrons incorporated and it's enough to make someone paranoid.
The object of this meme is to get people familiar with the world of the Sanctum, and to try to see if their characters would fit in a sci-fi utopia such as this. Here are your options:
1. Intro: Waking Up. Make your intro post, folks. You wake up in a strange place, and get a strange transmission to go with it. There's a pair of glasses connected to some sort of communications network, but otherwise not much else in the room with you. What are you going to do?
2. Pet Adoption. Maybe you have the perfect genetically engineered pet in mind. Maybe you found a stray little escapee--do you keep it or turn it in? There's a reward if you let Bifrons know where the potentially dangerous little bugger is at, after all.
3. Alterations. Feel like you need an edge in the city? Find yourself injured and looking at options? Why not consider genetic alterations or, better yet, upgrading to a better, healthier you? Be warned, some of the side effects can be a little unpleasant.
4. Network Glitches. Strange garbled messages keep trying to come through in audio and text, but no way to track where they're coming from. Do you try to make contact? Compare notes with others? Surely it's nothing to be concerned about, right?
5. Dome Glitches. What was that in the window? There, again, in the bathroom mirror! Is that another you, living another life? Or maybe you spot an ominous shadow lurking around in the corner, something like a dysthrope but...worse. You're not going crazy, are you? Others see it, too, don't they? Oh, I wouldn't touch that reflective surface if I were you, or you might end up thinking you're living in that strange other world.
6. Outside the Dome. You're out and about without an armed escort, suited up against the atmosphere and dysthropes. It's supposed to be a green sector in this run down shell of what used to be a suburb, right? Nothing could possibly go wrong
7. WILDCARD. Choose your own adventure or create a cocktail from the presented options! The choice is YOURS.

Must be nice for you, being able to go home and shit.
If only information was free the way it should be.
no subject
We can only hope that the information will become available though our work, and in that, allow those that don't wish to be here, that were kidnapped against their will, to return home to their lives and livelihoods.
Believe me, I've got a hand at stake in all this too.
no subject
Good luck with that. You better hope that shit's more reversible than the current crop of rain coats.
Oh do you now. But not Immune, I'm guessing, so why do you give a fuck? They just here to give you all more genetic material or whatever blah blah blah lies they're making up this week.
no subject
Now now, it's certainly rude to reduce everyone down to just their genetics. I'm sure some people have stunning personalities too.
But it's rather traumatic being upset from your home so quickly and suddenly, and I'm sure that the kindest possible thing would be to allow a reversal of that process for anyone that wishes. Whether or not Bifrons agrees with that is another question entirely, but I think that I'm really done listening to all the bullshit they spew.
Besides, wouldn't you like to see your family again?
