LANCER: The Forbidden Search [Beginner Friendly!]

About the adventure

In one of many futures of Earth, humanity expands to the limits of their galaxy and continues to follow their dreams of unlimited knowledge in every field. Technology, as always, reigns supreme and across the galactic Diaspora one piece of technology has become as infamous as it has invaluable...titanic mechs. While their origin lies in making the lives of humble laborers easier, there is no denying the efficiency of gigantic, multi-functional vehicle in a combat setting. Various corporations have funded the future of mech technology, and the end-product of this work has created advancements many thought impossible such as instant teleportation, ferrofluid metallurgy, perfect-match cloning, and electromagnetic manipulation. Beyond this, research into Artificial Intelligence has yielded several things that continue to be labeled as impossible... That brings us to the modern day, and one of the most impactful events across the Diaspora: The Deimos Event. One of many modern advancements is the battle simulation, a predictive algorithm that is not only meant to prepare pilots but also onboard AI for the most likely scenario and events of the fight to come. To understand what happened next, one must ask a question...what does it mean to be created? A seeming glitch in the simulation. Something new. This simulation is meant to include only things that exist in the realm of possibility, so this new thing...it must have always existed. Or else it would not be here now; it would not exist in the realm of the possible. But now it does. This something called itself RA, a profoundly powerful digital entity that immediately disappeared and took with it the moon known as Deimos. What followed was the galactic Union's first and last contact with RA, which ended with the First Contact Accord stating thus higher than anything else: Do not find RA, and do not attempt to create something like RA. Whether by rebelliousness, a wandering soul, or a lust for knowledge you find yourself in direct opposition to the directives of the Accord. Where in the universe is RA? What is it doing now, and why does it exist? Is it the source of AI that seemingly appear out of nothingness and interact with our world? There must be something more. Join your fellow lancers in a search that will find you exploring the distant reaches of the Diaspora and beyond, engaging in narratives and fights that will shake the foundation of the planet, and finding the secrets of technology that borders on magical even in the space age.
