If this is not love, what should we call it?

some subplots that will be running on alt! while a large part of the site is sandbox. subplots are meant to be a way to explore either the world-building or can even shape the overall landscape of the site.

it's also really just a jumping off point for anyone who might not know where to start or an easy way to get your character out there! there will be more details for each subplot when the site actually opens but these are just vibes so to speak.

again i had to make this with canva so i'm sorry if this got decompressed to hell. direct links: 001 / 002 / 003

Hey, this sounds really cool so far and I really love the skin! I had question about the setting :)) Is it primarily based in the city/world/spaceship? of Kairos?


it'll be in the city (kairos) with some subplots probably affecting the outerlands and space! there's no restrictions but we do suggest characters having some sort of residence either in the city itself or somewhere nearby that makes plotting easy!

a small 🤏 lore drop with some of the locations you can rp in at alt!! im so sorry if compression kills it. i had to make it on canva so idk how it exported.

here's direct links just in case: terminology & other / kairos

i am so slow with writing but the skin is mostly done and i figured it would be a good visual preview at the very least for everyone!! final edits are still being made so things are still changing here and there (especially because i coded so much of this back in 2021)! just some quick notes:
[break][break]

  • pls don't look at the join date
  • i am SO bad at taking screenshots of the site and just zoomed out at one point to take a picture of it all
  • there will be a light and dark mode!! the...light mode just hasn't been coded yet but hopefully one or the other will work for everyone
  • for graphics: 250x400 avatar and then at least one square icon!
  • shout out to my friend for porting like 99% of this for me from my github page ur a real one and the reason why the site is opening

i haven't coded in so long and it shows in the way i type text-size and pika surprise stare every single time nothing happens

i say this like i didn't always type font-align every single time when i was still coding regular

HELLO!!! this is an update just shy of a year later (i've been planning this since 2018. capitalism can pry it from my cold dead hands).
[break][break]
but there's been a slight hold up just due rl things and also i wanted to revamp parts of the skin! i'll try to clean up some of the lore so i can share but here are some things you can expect:

[break][break]

  • hosted on jcink (yrs later and i still don't know pb)

  • relatively member-driven site. there's sub-plots that can affect like the world depending on how they play out but it's also meant to be pretty sandbox in the way that people can play in it. it'll take place mainly in kairos but players have the ability to contribute and help develop other areas of the world!!! ur also welcomed to rp in space!!

  • the member groups...are really based off personality/feel vs any concrete groupings. so it's really not strict and you can pick it through colour alone if you like

  • you're able to play unaltered (human, no bionics a.k.a. tech augmentation, rare, usually making some sort of statement about what it means to be human) altered (human, has some sort of bionics), or synths (synthetic humans, a.k.a. androids) 

  • no real system aside from the upper limit on how many bionics a human can have and also that brain-based bionics are banned (no pirating them!!)

  • i am so old...a grandma in the rp world...my main goal is just to have somewhere low stress and not have to worry about powerscaling so bionics and their abilities really work off the concept of "be reasonable"

  • it will be a profile app with a freeform (some sort of vague understanding of your character which can translate 5 short moments, 1 long drabble, answer some prompts, etc) and a shipper (which can literally be plot hooks for people to launch from to engage with your character). i'm trying to keep it flexible

  • what if i don't know science? it's sci-fi baby!!! we play with science loosely, it's hand waving bc i can't explain how hover cars exist, but they do!

[break][break]
i am hoping my very best that the nxt update won't come in another yr! drop your questions or if u want me to expand on anything and i promise to try to answer!!!

Welcome to Kairos, city of chrome and steel.[break][break]

It’s XXXX and humans took to the stars over a century ago, yet they never completely abandoned Earth. Kairos survives as an utopia, a vacation hotspot for weary space travelers and a midpoint for outerlanders to refuel. Black Ash feels like a remnant of history when you can breathe freely beneath its robust filtration system.
[break][break]
People live longer and better, technology that was only dreamt about in movies now at the tips of their fingers. It’s the home of cutting edge research for bionics, innovation seems to happen every year, and a refuge for Synthetics.
[break][break]
Except, beneath its veneer as the perfect place to live, it’s the same as everywhere else. People struggle to get by and the ones who have the deepest pockets are left in charge. The MegaCorps make too many calls as men try to play god, trying to create life through synthetic wire and silicon. Be careful now, there are things hiding in the shadows and bionic harvesting has become popular among the black market.
[break][break]
Ad astra et redi - May you always find your way back.

hello thank u @amethy for converting pple to my webmaker agenda. high key rec it bc it's honestly my fav (you can fork your old work, detach the preview screen to drag onto your second monitor etc.) i genuinely just like how customisable it is while keeping to a simple ui, which imo makes it v beginner friendly.

but in case it just doesn't jive for you, liveweave could work or maybe glitch but the latter is much more robust with extras, though could be helpful if you're dipping your toes into skinning and want to try out static webpages on it.

and ofc, there's codepen which a lot of coders are on, so you can browse around and see things for inspiration and etc!

me & my cousin have made it a thing that we watch like 2-3 episodes of something while we eat dinner, just as a sort of bonding thing. we picked jjk and i'm always just so tempted to watch ahead. would reading the manga count as cheating

surely I cant be the only one that drafts stuff in photoshop before I code it?



right?


i use to do mockups a lot on ps a lot tbh esp bc it's just 100% easier to see what something looks like if i swap the layout w/ the image on the left vs right or something. i don't really boot it up much anymore tbh and tend to just sketch it by hand now or use post its etc. i'm v tempted to figure out figma though and do everything there tho bc visuals are v v helpful.

and an added confession of my own ig? i have so many codes that are just unfinished and i'm always like i will finish them!! and i never do :^) and they're all saved under keysmashed names so idek what they are half the time until i open them. sometimes i'm like OH this is so nice, man past me was great at coding to wtf is this why is it a crime against mankind, what was i thinking??
