[February 2060] Yesterday's Man (Crew: Matrix)
During the invasion in '36, the Tir Tairngire Princes ordered a massive matrix strike on CalFree. NeuroTech Computing (a division of Telestrian Industries) engineered a semi-autonomous virus and contracted a small army of deckers to help deploy the malicious code into the CalFree Government host on the Sacramento LTG. The result was devastating.
Once the virus hit the host's CPU, it aggressively began to overwrite everything in the host, rather than targeting only key process nodes. In a battle reminiscent of the Crash, NeuroTech's deckers fought to contain their creation as it went wildly out of control. Many fell to the virus as it spread, first through the CalFree Government's host, then out into the LTG. Unable to stop the virus and fearing it would spread beyond SAC LTG, the Tir deckers cut the LTG off from the NA/NOCAL grid. After hours of rampaging, NeuroTech was finally able to inject a kill-signal into the virus, stopping it in it's tracks, but far too late to save SAC LTG.
To this day, the SAC LTG remains an electronic wasteland, isolated from the NA/NOCAL grid and only accessible to the few who are brave or foolish to travel here through a few hidden datalines.
:: LTG# 845 (115-4242) :: {Pr*53~1=0}
Here. 23:52.45 01.02.56. Kali.
The LTG host where Kali wants to meet is a broken shell, barely functioning on the edge of the shattered SAC LTG. As you descend down the dataline, strange shapes writhe in the distance. Massive hosts lay in ruins teeming with viruses and rogue code fragments. Wild, untamed, fraught with danger and filled with possible treasures.
@Venom, @Splinter you are here.
