AU WORKSHOP

TIMELINE
2024-2100: Foundations of Change

• 2057: An international agreement known as the Great Climate Accord is reached to combat climate change, with ambitious goals for reducing carbon emissions, transitioning to renewable energy, and preserving biodiversity.
• 2060: The development and deployment of advanced green technologies, including carbon capture and sustainable agriculture accelerates. This marks the beginning of a major shift towards environmental sustainability.
• 2068: The first commercially viable fusion reactor is developed, providing a nearly limitless and clean energy source. This technological leap greatly reduces humanity's reliance on fossil fuels.
• 2075: Massive efforts in the great ocean restoration project are made to restore damaged marine ecosystems and halt the acidification of oceans, leading to the gradual recovery of marine biodiversity.
• 2100: Despite significant progress, the late 21st century sees a severe environmental collapse due to previous delays in action and unexpected consequences. Only half of Earth's surface remains viable for human habitation.

2101-2200: Expansion and Innovation

• 2120: The United Planet successfully establishes the first permanent base on Mars, "New Horizon," to conduct research and prepare for future colonization.
• 2195: Revolutionary hard-light technology is developed, allowing the creation of highly flexible and durable holographic interfaces and structures.

2201-2300: The Age of Change

• 2224: The first Hybrids are created.
• 2247: The Elheen became the First Contact with an alien species for humanity.
• 2250: An asteroid collision destroys Tellus' moon, causing widespread panic and a significant impact on tidal forces and satellite operations.
• 2275: The Tellurian Space Academy is established as a prestigious institution for training future generations of space explorers and researchers.
• 2289: Genetic eugenics is banned.

2301-2400: Challenges and Advancements

• 2350: Advances in cryosleep technology enable long-duration space travel, allowing crew members to remain in stasis during extended missions beyond the solar system.
• 2389: Mechs are classified as a species.
• 2400: New biomechanical technologies are introduced, allowing for advanced integration of human and machine capabilities, improving both medical treatments and operational efficiency.

2401-2524: The New Frontier

• 2439: The Hybrid Liberation Act is passed.
• 2427: A stable wormhole is discovered leading to the Andromeda Galaxy, opening new avenues for exploration and colonization.
• 2464: The Mnemosyne embarks on its historic mission to explore galaxies beyond the Milky Way, carrying a crew of 300 and 100,000 settlers in cryosleep.

2525: The Current Era

Humanity stands on the brink of new discoveries and challenges as the Mnemosyne ventures into uncharted territories, navigating through both known and unknown cosmic phenomena!

Luz Jimenez | Werewolf the Apocalypse OC

[dogyears]

Honestly coming from Werewolf being a hybrid in security suits her perfectly. I also kind of love the idea of playing her in a setting where the moon was destroyed.

In her original life she grew up without her mom and a serious chip on her shoulder and took to being a warrior as the first thing to give her any meaning. Even then she had trouble with wanting to appear tough and dealing with Garou with different viewpoints.

For this universe I figure she was a bouncer or private security and after a particularly nasty fight she decided to join the academy to get away and found that it suited her. She's mostly human in appearance with a few wolf features like ears and a tail that she keeps hidden most of the time to maintain her image. Higher than average strength and speed and maybe a weakness or two she keeps to herself.

A Garou in a setting with a destroyed moon is SO mean I love that concept so much

[dogyears]

Thanks! She will probably not deal with it well.

[mnemosynecrew]

Sorry we blew up Luna! Now everyone's a Ragabash =/

[dogyears]

She will probably deal with that even worse, meaning I absolutely have to app.

[skyscrapes]

I wonder if foreign celestial bodies could affect her? or (it's been ages since I WtA) is it tied to the Earth/Tellurian moon specifically :O

[dogyears]

There are other spirits tied into other celestial bodies, but Garou specifically draw power from Earth's moon. Though given the AU setting how much of that will carry over will be fun to figure out.
