Neo Aurora; a sprawling megacity standing as a shining beacon of hope amongst a desolate wasteland following the death of the Sun over 100 years ago. All citizens of Neo Aurora live comfortably and happily beneath a startless sky, except for those that don't.
[attr="class","winkbody"] Before creating your character, please take note of the following information that I couldn't seamlessly add anywhere else. As always, if you have any questions feel free to reach out to staff either via on-site PMs or through discord. [break] [break] Current technology [break] Neo Dystopia is set in a cyberpunk works, however all technological advancements have both been hindered significantly due to the events 500 years prior to the current timeline, and are being directed elsewhere. Neo Aurora uses modern technology but slightly more advanced than what we currently have available to us in the real world. That being said, however, the outer districts have very little access to modern technology and have to make do with what scraps and junk they can find. Due to the conditions that residents of the outer districts face, many have become rather skilled at creating impromptu devices from scraps. If you aren't sure weather something is applicable or not, feel free to reach out to staff. [break] [break] Physical Augmentations [break] While physical augmentations (prosthetic limbs and such) are commonplace within Neo Aurora, they are incredibly expensive to get, and in some cases, risky. Physical augmentations are only a relatively new discovery in Neo Aurora, so there's a high chance of the surgery having complications such as permanent nerve damage, or for the surgery to fail entirely are a factor to be considered. Due to how new this technology is, those in the outer districts are unable to have one of these surgeries without going through the inner districts first. Of course, there are ways to acquire them, they just wont come without cost. [break] [break] What happened to the stars? [break] Following the events that turned the Earth into an inhospitable wasteland, both the sun and the stars disappeared from the sky. As such, there is no daylight. The bulk of Neo Aurora's scientific efforts go towards keeping the city alight and warm 24/7. Since its time as a small outpost, citizens of Neo Aurora have developed their own way of counting time, but things tend to run 24/7 anyway. [break] [break] Beyond Neo Aurora [break] Neo Aurora's very most outer territories are heavily guarded and getting out is no easy feat. That being said, leaving the city's walls is not recommended, as beyond the safety (or lack thereof, depending on where you live and who you associate with) of Neo Aurora is a barren wasteland. All of the Earth's resources have long been pilfered and the lack of a sun orbiting the planet has made the weather incredibly cold. Any human, even an Enlightened with an Impes Attribute, would not last through a day outside of Neo Aurora's walls. Though there are whispers of a scant few leaving the city, none have ever returned and may not have even made it out to begin with. Adstrum doesn't take lightly to rats scurrying around in the restricted zones, after all.
