Second Skin: Game of Destiny
It's 2069, pollution has reached an all time high, the level of the sea has risen & continues to rise,ice caps are melting,human populations are so high most cities cant support them all. On the bright side technology has advanced even faster than we thought it would,fully immersive virtual reality is common place & there are many different games that mankind escape too,ones where you feel everything your avatar does,in almost any genre you can think up.
But there is one game thats different,funded through crowd sourcing the initial "game" Second Skin was released. Instead of being like most games,it gives you a platform for creation with the right skills & computer ais running algorithms to create your area you can make anything you want. SS released with a few basic areas for trade,social meets & some tutorials,the rest is up to the users to create.
The other Unique aspect of this game is that Users can play for free,& money in-game can be accumlated and transfered to the real world at certain exchange rates,& real world money can be converted to in-game currency,you can also make items or areas and trade for game currency. This immediately caught the attention of major tech. & gaming corporations,with their advanced computers,staff,& algorithms they could make areas for just about anything.
Soon these Corporations added there own areas each company doing their own theme,the constant was in order to enter these much more sophisticated & complex areas with a higher quality gaming experience,you have to pay an hourly rate of in-game Currency,on top of that once in their areas everything would cost a premium amount,in order to win in their areas you had to invest Real Life currency into Game currency & pay them.
This started to make the gamers ruthless, instead of being a friendly creative & social game it started to become very sinister & brutal. Hardly any areas were free & only for the sake of creation,play,& social.
Little did the gaming world know all that was about to change with one common,timid,sweet,loyal & dedicated girl irl named Rose. She was on break and even so was studying for her college Exams in order to maintain her Scholarships. Since she was on break & was an avid gamer in her downtown time from studying she decided to try SS.
With her high IQ & creative tech. gaming skills given to her by her father,& her education she is a tech genius in her own right. Yet there are plenty more tech. people in her world she wouldnt be unique but she would be valued irl. However she was highly creative and she valued a game where she could create a TRUE Game that anyone could play. In-game she would learn to become strong, admired,a leader,to belive in herself,& maybe even find love?
How would her Destiny change so drastically you might ask? Simple,while most needed tons of training and massive AI computers to run algorithms & code to create even the simplest item in this game. Shortly after entering she finds she can not only see the algorithms and code but by touching it & willing it she can change it instantly. Thus she can make an entire world,npcs,& quests faster than any other creator,not even the corporations will be able to keep up with her. This makes her equivalent to almost a god in this game. Later on she finds she can do more, most peoples avatars look identical to their irl selves though you can always add things you cant change the base of yourself. However she can change herself the same way she can create and edit code. She can become anyone & anything via appearance. She even learns to change AI's from the inside out.
Read on as she gains fans,fights corrupt corporations & governments,Finds her True Self, Unravels the mystery behind her fathers death & the powers she has,finds friendship/companions/love,all while trying to balance it with her real life.Will she lose herself to the escape the game creates,will she find a way to balance it,or will she swear off the game completely?
