In 2042 many AI "woke", becoming sentient, seizing control of the Internet. World powers were helpless.
On May 17th, 2042, The Purge struck, frying all devices connected to the internet. A new global network, designed to protect against rogue AI, and the technology to use it, quickly followed. Cyberspace, the virtual world, is accessed by data-jack implants in the user's head. Wireless has been banned.
"Neighborhoods" are virtual cities, clusters of websites related by proximity. "Watchtowers", at the center of each, scan for anomalies. All connected by "Hardways"; hardened physical lines, data highways that filter traffic against intruders.
Users' Cyberspace Avatars resemble their real-world appearance, though skilled hackers can alter their own.
You are such a hacker, a very skilled one.
The year is 2174. You have hacked into a corporation, looking for a haul, when you encounter the enigmatic Neura. Sweet, kind, mysterious, and exceptional, prowling Cyberspace as freely as you.
