The Chimera Code began as little more than an advanced computer virus, engineered by the military computer experts of a losing Malranian army to be the perfect weapon against their enemy planet, Talus, in what was later called the Black War. The virus, once released, would spread through nearly all forms of electronic communication, seizing and corrupting all technology it could find. Such a thing might have ensured Malran’s victory, but something went horribly wrong. They had made their creation too powerful.
At the time that the incident occurred, The Chimera Code was ready to launch. Malranian scientists had also completed the first fully functional prototype of a new bio-mechanical super-soldier, known only as #000. Without warning, The Chimera Code broke free from its containments and quickly spread throughout the mainframe, taking control of everything and shutting down all communication. The worst, however, was yet to come. No one knows how or why, but The Chimera Code infected #000...and suddenly ceased its operations.
In the computer system, The Chimera Code was just malicious software, a program with no self-awareness. When it entered #000, everything changed. It had control of a mind and a body – a sentient host. It could think and feel, and once it became accustomed to this new level of consciousness and intelligence, and realized its potential, its first thought was to exterminate the weak organic beings that had dared to control it. #000 broke out of his containment capsule, slaughtered every person he could find, and left the laboratory in ruins.
From then on, things became steadily worse. Not only was The Chimera Code a threat to technology everywhere; Now inside a semi-organic host, it was eventually able to assemble proteins to assume a physical form, becoming a vicious, mutagenic viral epidemic. #000, soon learning to control the organisms and machines he infected, amassed an army of mutated creatures and infected war machines and traveled across the land, leaving death and destruction in his wake.
2 months later, the Chimera-infected legions have nearly dominated the entire continent. Many survivors have fled to underground colonies and shielded cities to protect themselves. The greatest of these is Alkem City, a highly fortified megalopolis reaching above as well as below the ground. High in a watchtower near the northern extremity of the city’s ground level, members of Mobius, the most highly decorated security force of Alkem City, are on break; relaxing, enjoying a delicious lunch, talking cheerfully amongst themselves...completely oblivious to what is about to transpire.
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Game Structure:
21 players.
The Chimera Elite (Wolves)
#000: Master Wolf. Has the one-time use power to infect a human with the Chimera virus (e.g. convert them to a wolf) This can be used during any phase of play. Seers GREEN.
Zade: Wolf Thief. Attempts to steal items from one person during the night. Seers RED.
Malakh: Wolf Scavenger. Searches the city for items at night and distributes his findings to other players. Seers RED.
Arun: Wolf. Seers RED.
2 Infected Humans: Lonewolf Masons. They are freshly infected, so they are still difficult for #000 to control. If two wolves are killed by Night 4, they break free from his control and become regular masons. They seer RED if they are still wolves, or GREEN if they are freed.
Each night, both regular and lost wolves send in kill PMs. Since they represent 1/3 of the wolf population, there is a 1 out of 3 chance that the lost wolf kill will prevail.
Security Force Mobius (Special Humans)
Ether: The Mobius leader. A highly advanced biomech with impressive defense capabilites. (Guardian. Guarding protects a player from any kind of death except lynching and curse death.) Seers BLUE to seer and wolf seer (the latter would result from the seer being converted.)
Psykit: Ether’s partner and SIC of Mobius. Highly skilled at detecting both enemies and allies. (Seer. If, by the time the MW converts a human, the wolf thief was unsuccessful in stealing any items, the seer receives a PM saying a human was converted, unless she is converted herself, of course.)
3 Masons:
Ailian: Cursed Mason. On Night 3, the night of the eclipse*, she can seer someone. She dies Night 4. Seers GREEN.
Ran: Scavenger. Searches for items and gives the little gifts to other players. Isn’t he sweet? Seers BLUE.
Jade: Mason with the above two. Seers GREEN.
*NOTE: During the eclipse, #000 loses his powers of concealment, seering RED to any seering method, and specifically being revealed as the MW if seered by Ailian.
Marth, Kain: Cursed Humans. Killed by #000's minions after day 4 if Lonewolf Masons are freed. These poor bastards seer GREEN.
Tair: The crafty thief. Steals items from people and -- hopefully -- benefits his team. Seers GREEN.
ACSF Soldiers: 7 Regular Humans. Nothing special. They seer GREEN.
