Dominance: Dominance and You

This instructional pamphlet is occasionally issued to help people who have recently discovered Dominance adjust to their new-found powers.

Always

You have a gift!

Unlike most people, you have discovered that you carry the metaphysical gift of Dominance, a wonderful boon to humanity that you too can enjoy! There's just a few things you should know first.

            1
            You need Impossible! 1

            1
            Unlocked with Impossible! 1

What you can do!

Dominance users have been shown to do the following:

Communicate telepathically.

Alter material objects

Create high-energy phenomena.

Warp the fabric of space and time.

Expand their own sense..

Interface with technological devices.

Limitations of Dominance:

Dominance is very powerful, but even it has some limitations:

More than a few seconds of time travel.

Creating or reinstating sapient minds.

Alterations to one's own body.

Manifest energy above the ultraviolet spectrum.

Create phenomena outside a "zone of awareness".

Zone of Awareness

The zone of awareness is the area in which one's Dominance abilities can function, it is created from the user's senses.

The zone of awareness can be extended through augmentations or Dominance, but senses must be first-hand, it cannot be extended by remote displays except in very rare circumstances.

Augmentations take a while to integrate into the zone of awareness, depending on how intrusive they are. Ocular augmentations have been shown to work within minutes, but echolocation systems often take weeks to begin functioning as part of the zone of awareness.

Dominance abilities traditionally are oriented around a user's body, as well as their zone of awareness, so some abilities may be restricted to more strict boundaries.

Technology: Augmentations

Augmentations are common in the world of Orchestra; the most common augmentations come in the form of CHIMERA kits.

Always

Chapter 1: Traditional Cyberware

Early cyberware designs integrated poorly with the user's body, causing major issues with nearby muscle groups and nerve clusters and requiring full organ, limb, or body region replacements in order to facilitate the cyberware's effect. Traditional cyberware is almost entirely phased out by Orchestra's time, though it is still possible to find people with prosthetic limbs that look similar, and some people augmented for combat intentionally remove vital organs and replace them with hardened mechanical equivalents.

Chapter 2: CHIMERA System Cyberware

The CHIMERA System was developed around the time of the California Cataclysm and allows cyberware to be developed in connection with the human body; CHIMERA kits allow the user to easily insert the cybernetic materials inside the human body in the form of nanites. This is often done through a syringe or with an outpatient surgery, depending how many nanites are inserted at a time. The CHIMERA System does require one invasive surgery, a CHIMERA control module, which directs the nanites. For safety reasons, it is not possible for CHIMERA nanites to self-replicate, and the CHIMERA control module cannot fabricate more, but the cybernetic augmentations are capable of self-repair on a per-nanite level as well as on a structural level, healing about as fast as human tissue, or quicker if additional CHIMERA nanites are added.

Chapter 3: Discrete and Integrated Implants

The CHIMERA system uses two types of Implants, Discrete and Integrated implants. Discrete implants hook directly into the user's nervous system for activation and control functionality and work in such a manner that they require specific training in order to use. Some of the more complex discrete implants are often considered by their users to be as difficult to use as an additional limb would be, requiring intensive rehabilitation and concentration to use for the first few months of operation. Integrated implants do not need to be integrated into the nervous system for control purposes, though they may, and tend to be simple mechanical systems such as bone reinforcements, vision correction, armor skin, and muscle boosts, and even the coveted reflex enhancements sported by those who are willing to take the risks inherent to refining one's own nervous system.

Chapter 4: Beyond Cyberware

More recently on the augmentation scene, advanced bioware developed by the likes of Metamorphysis and their rival corporations as well as government and independent laboratories have become more and more prevalent as a means of both self-expression through simple body modifications all the way to covert weapons such as retractable talons that can pass through magnetic scanners. This advanced bioware differs from previous bioware, which was meant to replace human organs in case of failure or offer high-performance alternatives to human tissue, in that it often contains transgenic elements from non-human tissue.

Though controversial, genemodding is now possible partly through Metamorphysis' groundbreaking research on universal gene therapy, which does not require more than cursory adjustment to accurately sequence and modify an individual's genome. This technology is considered taboo in most circles when used without consent, but is most effective when applied to infants and children, or, optimally, an embryo, often taking several years to fully manifest in adults.

Chapter 5: Augmentations and Legality

While most CHIMERA control modules are built to automatically restrict the user to only legal cybernetic enhancements, there are people who have military or black-market modules capable of producing any sort of enhancement, and old-school prosthetic limbs or replacement limbs can be built relatively easily with incredible functionality included.

Legally, most cyberware is treated like a possession; it is not considered a legal part of the user's body and may be confiscated in most jurisdictions. This is the policy that the World League follows, though most corporations view cyberware as a part of the user's body, but not equivalent to natural tissue, and will only disable an offender's cyberware, often by removing or destroying their CHIMERA controller, rather than surgically removing augmentations themselves, allowing the user to retain the functionality but lose the self-repair and adaptation of CHIMERA augmentations. Extreme augmentation groups as well as some small regions consider augmentations to be, without exception, the equivalent of an organ, and push for any removal of cyberware without consent to be considered mutilation.

Bioware and genemodding do not usually run into legality issues when inside the user's body; bioware can often go undetected, and if it is detected it is usually restrained rather than removed. Genemodding as a practice is illegal in some jurisdictions, but there are no known cases of people being prosecuted as criminals for having genemods, which does not necessarily protect them from pockets of vitriolic backlash against what some see as an abomination.

Liking Storylines

Like a storylet, and contact me using the Help->Contact Creator menu above to tell me why you like it (please include detail) you can get an item for your troubles. If you tip Nex as well you can get an item made for you; 1 Nex gets you a rare donor item chosen at random, 3 Nex will give a custom item I come up with. Include a description of your character and I'll make it something appropriate. For 5 Nex you get a custom item and you can name it (nothing obscene, please). If you contribute a whopping 10 Nex I'll let you send me details of an item you want added to the game, named after your appropriate and non-trademarked ideas, and I'll work with you to settle on its attributes, where it should be placed in shops (if it should) or storylines it should be in. You will also receive a spot in the credits, including what item you contributed.

Also, you can get a special reward for reporting bugs using the Help->Contact Creator function on the StoryNexus bar, one of a variety of useful items.

            1
            You need Impossible! 1 and Impossible! no more than 1

Nex-Locked Story Arcs

When the time comes there will be a Premium Content Access option for any location in the game, outside of the Codex. When you select this, you will be able to see a variety of content behind Nex gates. When you buy content, it's yours forever to play whenever, your character will get a quality which unlocks a Nex-free version of that under an Owned Content option available wherever the Premium Content Access option is. You will be able to play your content as many times as you wish, and if you ever need a replacement you can use the Help->Contact Creator feature to get help.

Orchestra's main storyline with Metamorphysis is guaranteed to remain free to play, and any non-Nex gated character creation path will be accessible to players.

The current planned Premium Content storyline is Independent Agencies, which focuses on the time directly before the California Cataclysm.

Action Refills

You can pay Nex to refill your actions, as you can in all StoryNexus games. This is a mandatory feature of monetization, which all worlds that enable it share.

Referral Links

People who want to write about Orchestra can drop me a line using the Contact Creator option and I'll send them a special link for their blog/website/review that players can use to gain additional in-game goodies!

The idea of this is to reward people who spread the word by drawing people who want the unique loot that these links provide to search out sites that have links.

Unfortunately, at this time there are no plans to reward people who are frequent referrers (other than a potential unique piece of gear), but this could change at some point down the road.

History: The Cataclysms and Dominance

Dominance and the Cataclysms are inherently linked, as it was the reality warping Cataclysms that allowed humans' minds to interface with the Dominance and change the world around them with a thought.

Always

Chapter 1: Cataclysms

In the course of history, the Cataclysms have been the most dramatic event ever recorded, with apocalyptic levels of mass destruction literally rending tears in the fabric of reality and disintegrating matter across giant amounts of territory. The two Cataclysms to date were the California Cataclysm and the Arabia Cataclysm.

The California Cataclysm was the first event of its kind, stemming from the activation of a cataclysm generator created by the GCRA along the Arizona-California border, the incident gave California and its northern and southern neighbors their own tectonic plate, and caused massive loss of life in urban areas affected. Unlike the Arabia Cataclysm, there were no known examples of mutation in the affected.

The Arabia Cataclysm is much more controversial; it stems from an unknown source: officially the World League claims Islamic extremists were building a cataclysm generator as a WMD, but this is disputed in many circles. All that is known is that it was several magnitudes greater than the California Cataclysm, removed most of Eastern Europe and the Middle East from the map, and caused several people to exhibit strange physical characteristics including neoteny, progeria, abnormal protein synthesis, and Dominance-reactive senses or organs. Many of those affected gained powerful Dominance abilities that were unheard of at the time.

Chapter 2: Dominance

Not much is technically known about Dominance by its very nature. The general consensus is that it is a disturbance in space-time created by the non-Euclidean mechanisms of the cataclysm generators, though exactly why it interfaces with the human mind is unknown.

While many people who exhibit Dominance abilities claim to have a direct connection to it, the conflicting nature of their statements about the nature of Dominance leads many to discredit them as frauds, though in the wake of the Arabia Cataclysm it is becoming clear that Dominance may itself manifest in human minds in ways that they find comprehensible.

Chapter 3: The Fluid Nature of Dominance

Dominance has changed greatly in the times before and since the Cataclysms, though the most extreme manifestations of Dominance come from the Damned, the first people who exhibited Dominance, in the time between the development of the first cataclysm generator and the California Cataclysm. The Damned, and the terrorist cell "Heralds of Pandora", were known for receiving cryptic and nightmarish visions, most of which have been discredited as sources of information about the Dominance, but which have been researched as possible prescience and clairvoyance, a feat complicated by the fact that the Damned disappeared in the aftermath of the California Cataclysm.

The appearance of people who were physiologically changed by the Arabia Cataclysm has spurred new investigation into the nature of Dominance, including studies looking into the question of whether the individuals who were changed had latent Dominance powers before the cataclysm and if Dominance could play a role in alleviating the effects of future cataclysms.

You listen to the two men from the shadows.

You look at the men for a while, thinking of what you could do when you notice that the first man's wallet is sticking slightly out of his pocket. It would be easy enough to grab if you wanted to. Unfortunately, it's too busy for you to try to steal from both men.

Always

Always

Go to grab the wallet.

A tough challenge

You don't think you can be stealthy enough to grab it without being noticed, but if you grab it and tear it out of his pocket you should be able to run off with it.

It's not worth risking robbing the guy for his wallet, you'd rather try to mediate in their dispute and see what happens.

Shibuya Underground Market

Tokyo

After being taken over by the World League, Tokyo is still a bustling city, rebuilt on a continent city plate, but the influence of the pancontinental World League is easily apparent.

Shibuya is the place to go in Tokyo for black-market dealings and more, with its thriving Underground Market consisting of a complex web of merchants and various petty criminals working together to provide whatever people want without attracting the attention of the World League.

Always

Always

Buy weapons.

Even though weapons are heavily controlled in World League territory, you can still find a few of the more available types of gear here.

Buy a CHIMERA kit.

It's not hard to find someone who's willing to sell a CHIMERA kit without the required control module inspection or the background check in this crowd, the only challenge is figuring out who's selling a real one.

Rob a mark.

Luck

Watch for the fall of a card.

A matter of luck: it could go either way.

The nice thing about committing robberies at a black market is that nobody calls the police. The better thing about Shibuya Underground Market is that there's no unified organized crime ring running the show, so as long as you steer clear of the Yakuza you should be fine.

The Luck test here simply provides additional randomness, rather than necessarily indicating a bad outcome.


Met the vendor.

It doesn't take you long to find the guy you're looking for, a middle aged man in an over-the-top doctor costume. He immediately begins to offer you a CHIMERA kit for 2500 credits.

You're currently in Shibuya and something interesting has happened.

Purchase a CHIMERA kit for 2500 credits.

The spam message popped up on your phone even before you saw the ostentatious "Doctor Aug" salesman. Ignoring his over-the-top style, you approach.

"The finest CHIMERA nanites in Tokyo, fifteen doses for just 2500!" The man practically screams above the noise of the crowd, trying to attract customers.

Always

Walk away.

This deal isn't so great, and you're not sure you can trust the man.

It might be a risk to trust this vendor, but the ability to augment yourself would help you enough right now that it's worth the chance his goods might be fake.

Shibuya Underground Market

Tokyo

After being taken over by the World League, Tokyo is still a bustling city, rebuilt on a continent city plate, but the influence of the pancontinental World League is easily apparent.

Shibuya is the place to go in Tokyo for black-market dealings and more, with its thriving Underground Market consisting of a complex web of merchants and various petty criminals working together to provide whatever people want without attracting the attention of the World League.

Always

Always

Buy weapons.

Even though weapons are heavily controlled in World League territory, you can still find a few of the more available types of gear here.

Buy a CHIMERA kit.

It's not hard to find someone who's willing to sell a CHIMERA kit without the required control module inspection or the background check in this crowd, the only challenge is figuring out who's selling a real one.

Rob a mark.

Luck

Watch for the fall of a card.

A matter of luck: it could go either way.

The nice thing about committing robberies at a black market is that nobody calls the police. The better thing about Shibuya Underground Market is that there's no unified organized crime ring running the show, so as long as you steer clear of the Yakuza you should be fine.

The Luck test here simply provides additional randomness, rather than necessarily indicating a bad outcome.


Yakuza thug.

Rob a mark.

Luck

Watch for the fall of a card.

The good news is that you weren't the person who started this fight, so you have every right to go all out. Unfortunately, the guy who decided that he didn't like the way you were eying him is pretty big.

You were fortunate!

Yakuza thug!

Tokyo

After being taken over by the World League, Tokyo is still a bustling city, rebuilt on a continent city plate, but the influence of the pancontinental World League is easily apparent.

A tattooed man stops you. "What's your business here, omae?" It's clear that the thug's looking for trouble, since he's brandishing a nightstick.

Beat him up.

You go to fight the man, getting into a proper fighting stance and preparing to give him some bruises he won't soon forget.

Talk your way out.

An almost impossible challenge

You don't want to wind up as a punching bag, so you try to convince the man not to beat you up.


The pain!

Beat him up.

An almost impossible challenge

It turns out that Yakuza thugs don't enjoy getting pushed around, and he called over one of his buddies to put you in your place after he punched you. They take a few whacks at you, then walk off, leaving you to lick your wounds.

Down for the count.
