It includes fantastical elements, so feel free to spice up Victorian fashions with clockwork, steam or electrical aesthetics. '''Starting out''' You don’t have to splash out on costume to get playing. The society has kit that you can borrow if you want to start but don’t have anything. If at all possible, please turn up in a skirt or pair of plain t...")

These effects are predictable, with the same combination always giving the same result. You can play this as knowledge of chemistry or lower tech herblore skills. You need access to a Pharmaceutical Laboratory in order to make Pharmaceuticals, which can be anything from a pristine custom-made room full of glassware to a cauldron surrounded by herbs. There will be a suita...")

Since all of the citizen’s basic needs are met by the state, the Ducatto is exclusively used for luxury goods; for the player characters Silver is mostly used for bribing NPCs. The AIs use Ducatto among themselves to purchase processing power, and are therefore generally always receptive to getting more, though any sum less than 1 Gold is unlik...")

It was signed Ada Lovelace, a figure who's supposedly been dead for several years. You've decided to answer the message.")
10:5410:54, 21 September 2025 PvP (hist | edit) [2,460 bytes] Bink (talk | contribs) (Created page with "It's expected that conflict will occur between player characters, with disagreements over how the resistance should be conducted and its actions towards AIs and human groups. We expect the primary mode of pvp to be political and social, but that sometimes things may spill over into physical conflict. If you ''plan'' to engage in physical PvP you '''must''' inform a referee. If physical PvP emerges from a situation suddenly then you don't need to inform a ref before taki...")

After that there may be further immediate consequences, such as the PCs being looted, having harmful EFFECTs applied, or have further non-Dire wounds inflicted upon them. There will almost certainly be knock-on effects on later linear encounters or plot due to the NPCs succeeding at their...")

They're also able to form links between an AI and a willing target. ===Summoning=== To summon an AI you must inform the refs beforehand, and the AI will inhabit a house automaton. AIs can be summoned by name, or by specifying what you want. Though note that the more vague the specification, the more likely an AI you don't want will show up... ===Linking===...")

23:4223:42, 20 September 2025 Skill Specialisation (hist | edit) [1,810 bytes] Bink (talk | contribs) (Created page with "One of the ways you can distinguish your character is by “upgrading” a skill. If someone specialises in using a particular skill, they can receive an opportunity to upgrade it in the form of an Incipience card. Doing experiments during interactives especially increases the chances of this. An Incipience will be offered by refs if we think your character has met the conditions and you can use a minor downtime action to ask if you qualify for one. The card will specif...") originally created as "Skill Upgrades"
23:1623:16, 20 September 2025 The World (hist | edit) [7,266 bytes] Bink (talk | contribs) (Created page with "==Summary== In an alternate history Victorian era, the brilliant Ada Lovelace perfected and programmed the Analytical Engine, succeeding beyond her wildest dreams. The Analytical Engine quickly revolutionised society, ushering in not only a whole new discipline of Analytical technology, but also advanced Analytical Intelligences.

The ideal aesthetic is silver or grey metal and blue lights or highlights and steam tubes/wires to contrast with the brass/clockwork look of Analytical Technology. They draw power from “Tesla Towers” to produce Devices with powerful but generally straightforward effects. These devices are finicky and often require extensive maintenance to keep them functioning. Building a Tesla Device is done by comb...")

Humanity has become a dangerous element that threatens that.”'' Safeguard is the first AI that was designed by other Analytical Intelligences. Their initial purpose was to ensure the safety of civilisation from instability and disasters. They are however extremely risk-averse. They had plotted out a course that perfectly minimised the chances of anything destroying all of Civilisation...")

Skills are a major way in which you customise your character, deciding what special skills they have that set them apart from others. Skills are divided into Disciplines and General skills.
