Characters’ consciousnesses are uploaded to THE CLOUD. They arrive in a liminal space called The Gateway, separated from their bodies and physical sensation entirely. From The Gateway, they can proceed to computer-generated spaces in which everything they experience feels as real as it ever has.
From beachside vacations to tropical cruises, from out-drinking regulars at a pirate’s tavern to taking in a day at an amusement park, they can embark on adventure after adventure to try and pass the time in their new reality. Living day to day can be whatever your character makes it. Dying is as simple -- or as complicated -- as starting from a save file.
Of course, as we all know, technology is far from perfect or efficient. As the database of character files grows, the capacity of THE CLOUD may wane, errors may occur, and data corruption is almost certainly inevitable…
Will your character choose to embrace a virtual life? Or will they try to test the boundaries of THE CLOUD in their attempts to escape?
Inspired by video games and sci-fi classics such as The Matrix and Star Trek, THE CLOUD is an upcoming canon-only, panfandom roleplay set in a virtual space with limitless potential.
