Kkum-ui Segye

[Edzilla]

The other thread seems to be struggling abit, so here's a new one...

2050, a lots happened. Technological change at a unseen rate, scientists rallied together as nuclear fusion, a new method for energy production became widespread cutting carbon emissions . Yet it also produced more energy than mankind had ever experienced, powering more and more exploits: flying cars, cloning, super computers rivalling the human brain. Life spans rocketed, new advances in food production kept up. The future is bright.
2045, South Korean scientists came with an advance beyond imagination. Parallel with the cultures endless pursuit of perfection, a virtual reality, one which interwove the citizens within a utopia. No pain, no suffering, even the most trivial discomforts had been displaced.
It was called Kkum-ui Segye, or The Dream
While the more religious of people at first abstained, they were quickly enveloped, as were the rest of the population. The human mind is fickle, everybody wanted to believe it was true. Soon the whole of South Korea was a ghost town, people lived in there rooms, experiencing the false world. How unfortunate.
As everyone rushed into Kkum-iu Segye ,it was seen as a alternative to life. After all what did it matter that it wasn't real, so long as the feeling was, that was for the masses. The more heightened found it disturbing. They could do whatever they wanted, but part of it just felt wrong. When they tried to leave, it dawned on them that there was no way out, they'd signed there life's away, away to the mysterious figures who controlled it.
They are the only ones who can leave, some don't believe they are there. Whoever they are they have power, power unlike any other. They're known as Spectres, they control it.
Enter you, you ran away to the virtual reality with everyone else. You live in a virtual city or a virtual village. You feel virtual feelings and they feel amazing, eating virtual food, listening to virtual music. Virtual drugs are fairly common, yet they never damage, the mind and body are separate after all. Some of you are different, you are one of the dissatisfied. It all feel different and you long for that thing called life.
So you mull it over and come to the conclusion that those who control it can get you out. You just have to find out how.

Name: Malik Welard

Age: 26 (When he died)

Bio: Before the Dream was populated it needed testing, and after a year of being jobless Malik eventually signed up thinking it was just going to be the odd pill or hair grower being tested. But upon arriving at an unmarked building in the middle of nowhere he and a dozen others where strapped down and sent into the dream. At the stage of experimentation it was at it was far from the "perfect" world it is now. The landscape constantly changed as the lab rats that controlled it examined the reactions of the subjects inside.

This carried on for in our world a few months, as unknowingly to him they where the last batch of tests before it was released. Satisfied with the fact that the dream was finally ready for use, they set about removing all evidence of their experiments. This meant getting rid of the subjects and scrubbing the data and starting over. But even when a bullet was put in his real skull and everything from the old world deleted, somehow Malik managed to survive. Some tiny pocket of his existence was left within the worlds data, but if this was accidental or on purpose he doesn't care.

Now driven to the brink of his sanity, Malik wanders this new, "stable" world, trying to have as much fun and cause as much chaos as humanly possible. His end goal is the ultimate paradise of insanity. As he has no body to go back to, no reason he can remember to leave and even though he probably wont admit it he liked the rolling unpredictability of the old world. And with say someone like him at the top, maybe other people can come to enjoy it as well...

Appearance: tall and slender, Malik has rather pointed features and close cut black hair. His eyes are a strange pale shade of green that are at odds with his small almost too perfect white teeth, that he usually wears in a manic grin. He often wears a black business suit with no tie and with the first few buttons undone, that shows a white collared shirt underneath. This is often accompanied with black leather shoes and a single golden ring on his marriage finger.

Equipment: drugs of various kinds.

I was expecting to have to set a side an hour when I got back to read all of the posts people had put up. Turns out that not a single person posted while I was away...

Yeah... I'm kinda sad to say it, but it appears to be dying here.
