| Stranger Games:How will you get Home? |
[10 Jul 2012|09:28pm] |
Welcome to Pacis Urbs, a city that takes the best of all worlds for itself.
And, yes, that includes you.
You've been taken quite by accident (so they say), but you're hardly the first Otherworlder to arrive in this city. Pacis Urbs has a long history of accommodating Others like yourself and getting them back home. The only problem is, getting you back is expensive. How can you earn the money to get home?
Menial labor is one choice: cooking, cleaning, laundry. Working at the Domus Hospes, a club that caters to Native with exotic tastes, is another. However, the most lucrative way to earn money is the Games.
These gladiator-esque games are wildly popular in Pacis Urbs and other cities, generating much of the city's income. While these games can be light, even humorous, the darker games pay more. Getting home isn't cheap, and there are plenty of ways to sell yourself on the Campus.
Isolated from the rest of the city, collared and marked as an outsider, you're stuck in this world until you can pay off your debt.
But, even if the crowd loves you, nothing is as straightforward as the Scientists make it out to be. Despite espousing isolation, the Native politics trickle in from time to time (be it those who want the Otherworlders dead or the Otherworlders freed), and not all Otherworlders are going with the system. There are those who'll do anything to keep the Games from running, and those who'll do everything to get ahead. You could be a casualty of both.
If all else fails, you could find the Machine and try to make it send you home. If you could find it. (And if it would listen to you.)

WE DO WHAT WE MUST BECAUSE WE CAN
GLaDOS, an artificial intelligence computer system, has gotten bored from simply testing subjects with their portal guns through her test chambers. She's moved on to bigger and better things, and a handy new thing she's learned is how to use the portal guns to access different dimensions. With so many new test subjects at her disposal, she's sent her two androids to retrieve test subjects that have struck her interest. In her home at Aperture Laboratories, she hooks all her subjects up into a mainframe where they are uploaded into the virtual world of Milton, Illinois in order to test them in a variety of ways. Anything can pop up in Milton, from killer robots to zombies to simply building relationships and interacting with other subjects.
