Welcome to The Den...
Welcome to the Legends Den. We only accept the best of the best denizens, security sec, hunters, bio mechanics, and other scum of the underground, so welcome. Be on your guard as you explore this place. We are neutral ground for all the players, but watch your back, even the best behaved bounty hunter isn't to be trusted.
You're a new guy on the scene. As you enter you notice a guy against the wall enthusiastically playing an old pac man in the corner. He looks tough and weather worn, the kind of guy that knows his way around the Den. He makes eye contact with you and nods. He finishes his game and walks over.
"New here?" He asks.
You nod, unsure of what to say.
"Well, let me give you the lay of the land then." He replies.
"So new kid. There's big bosses in the room tonight so be careful. Everybody has come out to try to win big tonight.
Megacorp has it's corpo goons in the club tonight. They are offering top dollar to anyone who can hack the G.I.B.S.O.N. for them"
"The story is that no one knows who the real creator or the G.I.B.S,O.N. is, but as everyone knows, a computer that powerful could be used to rule the world. "
"Recently the G.I.B.S.O.N. went into lockdown, with nothing but a place to put in a password. No one knows if its numbers or letters. What they do know is each faction received a random number a few days later, and that's why all the big players are here. Each faction is searching desperately for the other numbers to see who will gain access to the G.I.B.S.O.N."
The players
"So now that you know a little bit about why everyones out tonight, lets talk about whose in the room. The major players so to speak...."
Mega Corp
Mega Corp is a powerful corporation with their tendrils in more than we can ever know. From the food we eat, the clothes and augments we wear, to the air we breathe, Megacorp is making money off of it somehow.
That makes them a powerful ally. With more money and resources than any other faction, being a Corpo means that you start off with the advantage of having the means to accomplish your goals.
Will you make Mega Corp a powerful ally, or a well funded enemy?
The Hackers
Less formally organized then other groups on this list, the hackers make up for their lack of money and power with their sheer numbers, wits, and determination. The Hacker group believes that information should be freely available and that corporations shouldn't control the world.
The Hackers can be a great ally with their intense resourcefulness and ingenuity. But being the underdog has its own challenges.
The Eye
Little is known about The Eye. This shadow organization lays claim to no public members. It operates exclusively behind closed doors. You can never be sure who is one of their shadow agents.
Even more than Mega Corp, The Eye seems to have infinite resources and power.
Mysterious and dark, their members tend to do really well for themselves, raising high into whatever circles they travel, but at what cost? What are The Eyes' true motives?
