Story:
The gears of conflict grind once again as a interuniversal faction sets its eyes on a small desolate planet. Though it's resources have long since been mined into exhaustion, the inhabitants have yet to give up hope, wishing on the stars that something frees them from their isolated and lonely fate. Still, others are taking actions into their own hands, doing everything in their power to defend against an foe with unknown and possibly unmatched power. All the while, the skies seem to have grown ever darker. Can the ARDF and everyone else on the planet hope to stand a chance against whatever oncoming danger approaches their way? Tune into find out on: Legacy!



*ATTENTION, ALL ACTORS*
In order to join this forum and get the most out of the forum, it is highly advised you create a character by checking out the rulebook. Another thing I need to state is that this project is intended to be community driven, so any enemies, skills, weapons, equipment, or just about anything you want to create will most likely be added to the project, with credit given if desired. Also, any new data added to one of the databanks will have a |NEW!| next to it.


Commands:
If you wish to view the battle map, type BMAP at the end of your post or simply ask.
If you wish to know where all active playable characters are at, type LIST at the end of your post or simply ask.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Finally, Legacy's purpose is the idea that anyone can be a Director and add pieces to the story. With that said, certain things may be barred, such as having characters from existing media(Mega Man's excluded from this, but even still there are things barred(see rulebook)) or things like spirits and magic. While these could have in-universe explanations, the genre of Legacy is, in a nutshell, Sci-Fi. There's nothing wrong with making a character that could fit in a fantasy setting, but it has to work some way or another. An example is deities. If you wish to introduce them, make them cosmic forces or a rare species or whatever you wish, just please not actual gods. Please understand that despite all that I don't wish to impede creation.

As Acorn flips through the pages, he comes across a title called

PROGRAMING SENTIENT LIFE AND IT'S LIMITATIONS.

Hmph. This will be good for a laugh. Let's see what this author thought about us AI before technology truly took off.

To start, let's go over the basics. As you know, all programs must abide by the five laws of robotics if they want their machines to be deemed factory standard.

Number one: A robot must be able to understand it's ID number and understand that it is indeed a robot.

ID: 4231. And sure enough I'm made of microchips and steel. That checks me off.

Number two: A robot must have at least one set purpose in life. Creating a machine with no purpose has the potential for it to fall into the wrong crowd.

Well I have two so double check.

Number three: A machine MUST have some operator, doctor, or director to order them around. Otherwise whatever they set out to do will have a high chance of failure and decrease their overall happiness.

And that's a negative for me and I feel fine. Besides, the government tells us machines what to do and their miserable, so that's a bust. Next.

Number four: It must be made clear to the machine that no machine has a truly free will of its own compared to most organic lifeforms with an S.I.A of 6 or above and it simply relies upon pre-automated process thru pre-built personalities. Failure-

Riiight. When was this book made anyways? 6212? Let's just check the-
7124? That was 9 years ago! Who published this garbage?
Juliet University? But that's one of the top robotics universities in the Baw Galaxy!
They've got some nerve publishing this...ascine garbage as if it's fact. Robots are just as alive and able as organics and no STUPID book's gonna change that.

As Acorn places the book into a nearby trashcan with his extendo arms, he then calms himself down.
It's alright Acorn. Anyone with half a braincell or jolt knows that it's all just speculation. My will is mine and mine alone.
Grabbing it back out of the trashcan, he cleans any dirt that got onto it before placing it back into the bookcase. As he does so, he spots a book on ancient combat tactics.
There we go. Something worth reading.
CHARACTER DATABANK UPDATED
Upon the final word, the dish goes silent with a single loud burst of static blasting out of the radio. One of the computers flashes a low purple before turning to black with green text appearing.
HARD TO BELIEVE IT'S REALLY BEEN TWENTY YEARS WHEN FELT LIKE ONLY 5 DAYS. PERHAPS TIME RUNS DIFFERENTLY HERE. I WONDER HOW MUCH YOU'VE GROWN. REST ASSURED OUR PROJECT WAS A SUCCESS!

WAIT...YOU DON'T KNOW MY NAME? ...I DO RECALL A LOUD SHRIEK BEFORE I DISINTEGRATED. PERHAPS MY DEMISE TRAUMATIZED YOU TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT YOU FORGOT KEY DETAILS ABOUT OUR LITTLE PROJECT. BUT REST ASSURE ZACK I AM INDEED ALIVE. I...I AM SORRY ABOUT ANY STRESS I MAY OF PUT ON YOU FOLLOWING MY DISAPPEARANCE BUT SURELY, SURELY NOW YOU REMEMBER SINCE YOU YOU'VE ESTABLISHED COMMUNICATIONS WITH ME AND KNEW WHERE TO PLACE THE DISH. SURELY YOU REMEMBER THE NAME

DOCTOR IVORY WOE, DO YOU NOT?

DHOPCROUBDoPdbopcuibDoiugbcopGBUI DOCTOR WOE???????????
WHAT THE HELL PIDNOUB#OEBUC=OIUEBRVCOUIBEROVB
well, uh, here's the deal
I'm not this Zack person you're talking about, my name's MIDI and I'm a robot
a few weeks ago some big ass ominous towers rose from what used to be your lab and created some sort of interdimensional portal or some crap, and out of that portal came some alien jackass dressed up like the doomguy and killed the town's strongest fighter, so nATURALLY I think it's unsafe.
so I was hoping you had a wireless network in your lab that I could patch into, but instead I seem to have summoned your ghost or something. which, I guess, is a good thing, because you can tell me first-hand just what the hell is going on.
oh, btw, I'm presently working with a very specific army squadro(not dealing with your lab), should I inform them of this?
also can I get an autograph

GHOST? I ASSURE YOU I AM NO GHOST. YOU SEE MY ROBOTIC FRIEND I AM NOW ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE IN THE FORM OF A SPECIAL KIND OF WAVE I HAVE DEEMED EM WAVES. WITH IT, I, AS WELL AS ANYONE IN THE FUTURE, CAN AND WILL LIVE FOREVER. IT ALSO ALLOWS ME TO TRANSFER PIECES OF MY CONSIONOUS INTO OTHER TYPES OF WAVES, SUCH AS RADIO WAVES, HENCE HOW I AM SPEAKING TO YOU CURRENTLY. THROUGH THIS, THE USER COULD THEORETICALLY BE PLACED INTO A NEW BODY OF EITHER STEEL OR FLESH.
,,,,,,
THUS I, THROUGH THE EFFORTS OF OTHERS BEFORE ME AND ZACK HAVE CREATED BOTH AN IMMORTALITY MACHINE, A TELEPORTER, AND A BODY TRANSFER SYSTEM. HOWEVER, DESPITE ALL THE ADVANTAGES THERE WAS ONE PROBLEM...THOUGH EM WAVES NATURALLY EXIST IN THIS UNIVERSE, THEY ARE TOO FEW AND FAR AWAY TO ESTABLISH AN SOLID CONNECTION. SEEING THIS, I REALIZED THAT BY TAKING THE EM WAVES OF OTHER UNIVERSES, THIS UNIVERSE COULD REALIZE THE FULL POTENTIAL OF THIS TECHNOLOGY. AS SUCH, I CONSTRUCTED A DIMENSIONAL TRANSPORTER AND SET OUT TO CONNECT THE DIMENSIONS.
,,,,,,
WHAT SEEMS STRANGE ABOUT YOUR PROBLEM HOWEVER IT THAT NOTHING BUT WAVES SHOULD BE COMING THROUGH IT. PERHAPS IN ONE OF MY CALCULATIONS I MADE AN ERROR ON THE WEIGHT OF MATTER? PERHAPS THE AMOUNT OF THE TIME THAT HAS PASSED MAY OF RUSTED A DIMENSIONAL ANCHOR CHAIN? THIS IS NOT GOOD INDEED. BUT SINCE YOU PLACED THE DISH IN THE UNIVERSITY LIKE ZACH AND I TALKED ABOUT, ZACH MUST BE WITH YOU RIGHT? CAN I SPEAK TO ZACH SO I CAN INSTRUCT HIM ON WHAT TO DO? I KNOW ONLY HE HAS THE KNOWLEDGE AND POWER TO SOLVE THIS CRISIS.

WHAT? ZACK(STUPID AUTO CORRECT)'S NOT THERE! WHERE IS HE? WAIT...SQUADRON...IS THIS AN ATTEMPT BY THE XERXES GOVERNMENT TO USE MY TECHNOLOGY? THIS IS A NEW LOW AND I'M FRANKFULLY DISGUSTED BY THIS. IF YOU LAY A FINGER ON ZACH I WILL MAKE SURE THAT YOU GET N O T H I N G. HE'S JUST A BOY! WELL...IF IT'S TWENTY YEARS THAN HE WOULD BE A YOUNG MAN...BUT HE'S LIKE A SON TO ME. DON'T DO THIS!
...
IF YOU WANT MY TECHNOLOGY THAT BADLY THEN I NEED PROOF THAT ZACH IS SAFE. THEN WE'LL TALK.

END OF LINE

As Acorn learns more about combat tactics, he, engrossed in the book, fails to notice a flapping sound. It's only when he finishes with the book that he notices far too late a gleam in the darkness of the room.
What the!

On instinct, Acorn lifts the book in the air to act as a shield as a grey talon strikes the book, leaving a crescent shaped cut.

YOU DARE USE A PIECE OF LITERATURE AS A SHIELD!
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU? WHO JUST ATTACKS SOMEONE THAT'S READING?
Reading?
Yeah you know, like enjoying a good book that YOU just ruined!
AS IF YOU WOULD KNOW WHAT A GOOD BOOK IS? I HEARD YOU THROW A BOOK INTO A TRASH CAN!
Look...I didn't agree with something in the book and-
THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS GRIEVANCE! ALL BOOKS, NO MATTER WHY THEY MAY CONTAIN, ARE SACRED FOR THEY ARE PIECES OF HISTORY AND CULTURE.
And I completely agree with that. That's why I placed the book back into the bookshelf.
What book was it?
Rosaline's Guide To Programming.
Okay...that book may deserve to be in the trash...BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER! YOU DAMAGED ANOTHER BOOK THAT WAS PRICELESS!
There's three other copies over there. AND EXCUSE ME? I DAMAGED IT, MISTER SHARP TALONS?
I'LL SHOW YOU TALONS!
Uh oh...

MIDI frantically adjusts the radio frequency until he catches Woe at least a tiny bit.
OKAY LISTEN HERE YOU HAM RADIO HOMUNCULUS. I DO NOT KNOW A ZACK. THE ARMY DOES NOT KNOW A ZACK. THE ONLY REASON I AM WORKING WITH THE ARMY IS TO CATCH A HOSPITAL DIRECTOR WHO IS APPARENTLY A TERRORIST PERFORMING EXPERIMENTS ON UNWILLING HUMAN BEINGS. THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN YOUR LAB, AND NEITHER DO I, I JUST DON'T WANT IT TO SCREW NEPTUNE CITY OVER ANY MORE THAN YOUR """DEATH""" DID.

At first the computer doesn't respond...then a twisted loud voice comes from the radio..

YOU listen here you ignorant insolent fossil-fuel consuming pile of scrap put together by an ameutuar with an IQ of a gilded sandstone, I KNOW you are working with the army or some other group cause how else would you know about the dish, coincidence?
...
...
...
Oh...oh my. I...how could I not see that before? That would make sense wouldn't it? I apologize... You see...the reason for my sudden outburst is because of that self-proclaimed ruler of everything governor Banus. He has a history of using underhanded tactics including kidnapping to get his way. Since he was running low on funds, he passed a series of laws that would completely strip the land of whatever materials were left. Among these outlandish laws was one saying that all doctors and inventors had to turn over their materials for "the citizen's fund". As such you could see ho-

Focus Ivory focus. Listen. If you want to shut down the portal, you need to get to the tower itself and unhook the dimensional anchor from the base of the tower. Doing this should allow you to negate the chance of the overloading of the central power generator, which you'll have to disable less you wish for over 1000 tons of explosive power to turn the planet into a smoking crater. And even then, the only safe way to do it is to access an everchanging password system that was attached to the door that leads to the generators after that idiot Banus sent in his goons to try and take parts off of the radiator in the room. After the anchor and generator is disabled, you just need to reroute the backup power to a set of solar cells. Doing this should prevent any extra threats new and old from entering the portal. However, may I suggest that you do it during night so the solar cells have max efficiency. After all, everyone knows that solar cells around here have a tendency to absorb light even when off due to a factory fault.

Gyro, continuing to wander, ends up at the library, and when getting to the entrance, just stops and stands while acorn argues with this weird, bird looking opponent, he then brings out his notepad and begins to hastily sketch the bird thing, and adding "regular enemy bird robot????" to the pad

AAAH-- I WOULDN'T--

As Meddy turns to Star Man in surprise, the screen she was facing towards begins to display a riddling of explosions, unfortunately making awkwardly loud-but-not-that-loud sounds before fading to the pitch black. Star Man also sees a VR-looking headset, though the way Meddy is adjusted blocks the majority of it's view.
