MARCH 14TH, 2976. This has got to be one of the fanciest-looking rooms you’ve been in for a long time, maybe ever. Very extreme business-chic with a heavy side of tech. Outside the wall-high windows, you’ll see a scene of dozens and dozens of glassy skyscrapers, all densely packed together and varying very little. Documentation/signage you can find gives you this building’s address somewhere called Financial City.
Move quickly -- cameras detected your presence in this private, executive suite and an alarm is humming.
You are on the 102nd floor of a 138-floor building...and every single floor looks exactly the same. Even more, it seems entirely vacant. Even as the alarm hums continuously, not a soul is in sight. Should you touch any of the windows, however, you’ll suffer a pretty hefty electric discharge! Should you try to leave doors at ground or roof level, the same will happen. On the horizon, drone planes are coming in, hailed by blinking lights on the roofs of the other scrapers.
There’s time to move, at least, so you can take to investigating all the workstations and cubes on the abandoned working floors. Problem is, every single computer you can plug AI into...has absolutely zero data on it! Set pieces. This is all just a massive display piece.
And that’s not all: The longer this goes on, with all the monotonous rooms and impenetrable exits, it’s very clear you’re in a very large cage.
Lingering for more than an hour and the drone planes will swoop in, hovering floor to floor to find and ping you with its sensors, triggering a lockdown of that floor. Steel panels over the windows and doors, sealing the entire floor up until 25 armed guards swarm in to capture or kill, if necessary.
POSSIBLE DATA-GATHERING TARGETS • Various cubes, meeting rooms or exec suites will have documents lingering of project planning or data coordinating...whether these are accurate or just part of the pretend is unclear. These are able to be stolen or photos taken by your communicators. • Utility rooms have access to circuit boards...and computer terminals! Snooping here will successfully get you to a place AI can plug into that actually has some substance. Be warned, though, the longer you keep AI plugged in, the faster security will swoop in on you, and you risk the power on the floor shutting down. • Guards you subdue wear sophisticated computerized helmets, lined with neuro-circuitry. These can be stolen as well. Trying to get word out of the guards themselves, however, will prove useless. There’s something strange and glassy-eyed about them…
Soldier Blue will send you your target date to IC inboxes. If none is available, please consider the data sent as a handwaved action. You can choose when to ICly go, and report what outcomes you have once the Collection post is live!
