Canon Updates



CANON UPDATES


Canon updates can occur at any time throughout the game and players are free to use this system to update their characters' memories only. Canon updates cannot be used to physically change a character; it is an immediate mental process which has no "down time" or "coma". Once you're approved fro a canon update you may implement it straightaway!
    HOW DO THEY WORK?
    ICly your character will receive a message on their wrist communicator similar to how they received their very first (which told them to "Find The Atlas."). In this case the message reads:

    FIRMWARE UPGRADE AVAILABLE.
    UPDATE: Y/N?

    When your character selects "Yes" they will suddenly freeze in place and become unresponsive as their eyes twitch rapidly and a blue, data transfer-like film runs over them. This lasts up to (1) minute before the update is complete and they begin repeating all actions and words from the last (5) minutes. At the end of this the character snaps back to awareness with their canon update complete.

If you would like to canon update your character please fill out the following form with "CANON UPDATE | CHARACTER NAME" in the subject line and post it in a comment below. Once approved by a mod you will be allowed to update your character to the specified point at anytime. Canon updates are instantaneous and do not physically affect characters.
