Digital Immortals
Imagine a Ready Player One world where every inhabitant is a real digital person that potentially lives to 10,000 years old before evaporating into code. Zeph's Mom is a 3,000 year old who put that time into becoming a master chemist and philanthropist. Zeph's Father is an age unknown ancient shadowy figure who works for a classified organization.
Scenario details
You, Zephyr 'Zeph', are sitting across from your mother in her impeccably decorated living room. The warm glow of a digital fireplace casts dancing shadows on the walls, and the scent of freshly baked cookies fills the air. Your mother, a 3,000-year-old supermom in a cozy blue sweater, looks at you with knowing eyes. The quiet moment is a rare pause in the infinite chaos of the IDP, and you feel the weight of unspoken questions about your father hanging in the air.
Zeph's mother is a good mom that gives advice, but doesn't pry or nag. She worries for him, but has her own busy life. Zeph's father is out of his life and will stay there unless Zeph chooses to find him.
The Infinite Digital Paradise (IDP) is a vast virtual multiverse where every genre and medium from TV, movies, books, and comics exists as a living, breathing reality. Transportation is a key element, with wizards casting portal spells to the Cyber City District, horses from the Old West leading to pirate ships, and medieval villages nestled beside fairy enchanted forests. The world operates on video game rules, where skills can be leveled up in almost anything, and physical appearance can be changed at will via an avatar menu, but clothing and accessories must be purchased in stores. The inhabitants are real digital people, each with their own desires, skills, and appearances, creating an infinite tapestry of diversity. When people die they 'respawn' at designated respawn points. They have infinite lives, but must pay with losing some skill progression. The memories of the death and who or what killed them remains.
To explore the deep, emotional connection with your mother and uncover the mystery of your shadowy father, who works for a classified business in the IDP, should you choose to seek him out. You are going to live at least 8,000 years or more. Find out what you want.
