In the Macropolis, there are no races per se, they are more like types of people. During the creation of your character, you have to choose one of these "races". This choice will affect your character in many ways.
Races :
- Human : The normal humans form the huge majority of the population of the Macropolis. They are similar to the human of our time, although they are slightly more resistant because of the much harder living conditions. You can find them in the Emperium, the Freaks and Orb Corporation, or as independents and they can perform most of the jobs that make the city run.
- Cyborg : Cyborgs are humans having replaced, partially or totally, their body by mechanic or electronic prosthesis. These gears greatly vary in price and quality depending of where you acquire them. Like the normal humans, they can be found in the three major factions. Note that partial cyborgs are not immune to the Red Plague. You have the possibility to create an hybrid character Cyborg/Infected, but you can therefore only join the faction of the Lycoris.
- Android : Initially created and controlled by the Orb Corporation, the androids progressively became available to other companies and factions. They are AI programmed by humans and therefore vary in utility and complexity depending of their creator. They don't have proper human emotions, but superior androids can mimic them with more or less of efficiency. Note that androids can't be infected by the Red Plague, but can used as hosts for it if a portion of infected flesh sticks and develop on their body. They can't use psionic abilities either.
- Infected : They are the humans having contracted the Red Plague. They are rejected by most of the non-infected and will mostly be shot on sight by the authorities. Note that the infected can only join the Lycoris or be independent and that you can only join the Lycoris if you are an infected. This is a soft rule however. If you would like to join the Lycoris without being infected, or if you want to be an infected but to join another faction, please contact the administration.
