In the modern world, you are constantly under watch. The governments are layered with corruption that people blindly walk by. Cameras everywhere. There is nothing such as private anymore: unless you’re very, very rich. That, or you’re in the system yourself. And by that, there’s one of two ways you can be in the system. It’s either…
- you work in it
- or you hacked into it.
Typically, for people like you and me, it’s the latter. When you’re in the system, you have access to almost everything. Kind of scary if you think about it. There are certain things you do need to step out in person for…but most of it? If you have a good device at your house, you can do all your work from there.
But just because you got into the system doesn’t mean you’re immortal. Let’s put it this way. Say you’re breaking into a top secret base. There’s traps and alarms. Let’s say you trigger one of those alarms. The police know you’re here, and you need to make an escape. With the system, it’s not as easy, especially if you’re working from your house or another familiar location. That’s usually why you need to take precautions; like setting up your location somewhere else where it isn’t, or putting up some alarms yourself.
And the cops aren’t the only ones going after you, either. Rival hackers; not everyone is working with you here. Some want to eliminate the competition, or just cause chaos. In the system, being cautious is key.
At the base level, you can do things. Like hack into phones or small devices. Look through cameras. Find codes. Have a message you want to broadcast? Find a radio tower. Transmit it. Sometimes, the only way to get your word out is by doing something special.
What will you do?
New RP here. So in this RP, we have both of our characters, both are hackers and all. Maybe they’re well known, maybe they’re just getting in or maybe they’re laying low. Doesn’t have much of a plot right now, this is a RP focused more on the interaction of our characters and the world around them.
The template for this is a bit different, but I’ll list the rules first.
- If we need to take it to the PMs, we will.
- With that rule in mind, I’d prefer mature RPers for this. Some parts of this will be lighter, while others may not.
- Violence and blood are fine.
- Cussing is also fine.
- Let’s not Metagame here. By that, I mean knowing things you were told OOC.
- Let’s also attempt to try not to be OP in this RP.
- Try to remain active. I do not expect a response every day, but keep that in mind.
- Semi-futuristic setting here, but no flying cars or anything like that. Still kind of modern, with some extra stuff. Kind of..cyberpunk like.
- Ask questions if needed.
- Try to use proper grammar. I can deal with some mistakes, though.
- Alert me that you’ll be joining.
And the template….remove brackets.

Aliases: (if any, for example they might have a completely different name and last name they go by for safety.)
