COMMANDS
SPAWN- Spawn a TCP with a noun.  Only available when the TCP limit has not been reached.
NAME- Name your TCP. Kitties prefer two-syllable names!
CHECK- View your TCPs health, mood, what they’re thinking about, and inventory. 
TEACH- Teach your TCP a basic concept or skill. They can share this if taught to teach, but anything more than a base understanding must be learned through experience or supplied information. 
CREATE- Create objects or non-TCP animals within your territory and field of view. When you are in ADVENTURE MODE, you can’t use the create command. 
KILL- The only way a TCP can die. Without a kill order, your kitties can still get hurt - at no health, they won’t be able to function til they’re healed.

 << Any character can join regardless of their prior experience, be it a god, collective, or player at an arcade. The game needs four more players to start. Standard TCP rules apply - keep meta-knowledge to OOC chat or to yourself. HERE is a discussion thread for your fellow players and observers. OOC statements may be made in the game thread, but questions for other players, planning, or off-topic speech go in the discussion thread or in DMs. 

 Please include your desired world - the base will depend on everyone’s wishes. You may provide as much detail as you'd like but it may not all show up. Once the world is created, you’ll be given a chance to choose your BIOME.

 The game moderator will supply each spawned TCP (if not pre-existing) and their first CHECK. 

 Each player may, if wished, spawn a pre-existing one type TCP as their first. If so, when asked to spawn for the first time, supply a picture or description of them and a personality. Any subsequent TCPs will be randomized based on the supplied noun. Once a TCP has spawned for you, use the NAME and CHECK commands - once you’ve seen them checked for the first time, they’re all yours. The first CHECK command will only contain the TCPs canon ability, their full health, and their state at spawning. 

 The progression of the game is up to the players - the game moderator will make announcements such as the TCP limit rising, auto-balance being triggered, weather changes, and other necessary information. Outside that, it’s up to you where this goes, though if you'd like random or pre-set events for your territory those can be provided. You have control of your kitties only - when interacting with other players, be careful not to god-mod. To determine the outcome of an action on another’s TCP, roll a six-faced or larger dice OR talk with the player about what you’d both like to happen. This can also be used for risky actions of your own.

 Mark OOC text in <<arrows.>> Speech to your TCPs and chat messages go in your chosen text color to make it easier to distinguish. To talk to other players in-character, please make sure to find a communicator. You can use a video or voice call, and icons are optional. Alternately, if your TCPs encounter each other, you can use them as proxies.>>

SPECIES/STATE OF DIVINITY: Construct (Mortal)
<<DESIRED WORLD STATE:>> You can never go wrong with some fun lights. Things floating about are also always a classic.
<<A reference image in addition to the description is WIP. TLDR Description: Waterproof grey 'amphibious' construct.>>

Description: It is a waterproof, bipedal construct, possessing a head, torso, two arms, and a tail. Its head is composed of a sphere. There are five circular screens on the sphere, one for the 'top', 'right', 'left', 'front', and 'back'. Surrounding each screen is a ring of seven smaller concave circular details, which consist of speakers and various sensory apparatuses. The head is connected to the torso by a short rounded neck. The torso is shaped like a thin pill. There are two circular indents on the 'sides' of the torso for ballast intake/outtake. The torso also possesses a utility light on the 'front' and 'back'. The is composed of three segments, a rounded upper arm, a rounded forearm, and a clawed hand. The legs are constructed like the arms, but with clawed feet instead of hands. The tail is a series of five segments. The first four segments are rounded shapes, while the piece on the end is a propeller blade. The construct is grey-scale in color. The main parts of the body are a medium grey, with most details being a dark grey. The lights are a whitish color and the screens on the head are black.

> LOADING…

 

The world that loads into view’s axis tilts heavily to the side, leaving it with a longer night than day and a deep pink dusk - constant, in some places - as well as shimmering auroras at the poles. It comes along with (limited) gravity and air, though kitties don’t need to breathe! Be cautious of floating objects and jumping too high. Nothing else lives on this world (Yet?) and its cities, structures, and sprawling public transportation lay untouched and lacking power, lit only by colorful will o’wisps in various sizes.

Plenty of fascinating options. Only one force is powerful enough to make decisions among such great choices. Eeny. Meeny. Miny. Mo. Pick the parcel by the specifically labelled direction so that the contents of the package are not damaged because if there was a cake in there or something then it might get smushed...and...well, that'd be a travesty. The result of that runaway train of semi-random selection and consideration is...

>Underground Selected

...which honestly seems like a pretty interesting challenge. Bingo.

> LOADING.. PLEASE READ.

> The RUINS BIOME is a mix of architectural styles and broken stone with bones, artifacts, and art waiting to be discovered. The wind howls through the ruins, and the train lines stop where the rough ground begins. Full of potential hazards.

> The SWAMP BIOME is full of murky water, half-drowned trees, and mandragoras.The only structures are scattered tree-houses and strange, musical stone sculptures. The will o’wisps flock
under the heavy clouds and canopy. Frequently rainy.

> The UNDERGROUND BIOME is a sprawling cave system with exits (and openings) randomly placed across the world map. It’s filled with everything from pitch black caves to shallow mines to underwater sections, and that’s just the easiest parts to map. Difficult to navigate.

> The CITY BIOME has a skyline full of towers, with the typical train lines bleeding into a nonfunctioning subway. Stores, people’s homes, and even hospitals sit empty of everything except items. Everything relying on power is useless.

> The SKIES BIOME is mostly made up of a thick layer of clouds, painfully bright in the day and heavy with brewing weather. The colors of dawn streak through them; the rest is empty sky. Cut off from other biomes.

> COMMANDS UNLOCKED
TCP LIMIT: 0

> TCP LIMIT RAISED!!
TCP LIMIT: 5

<<Spawning time! For now, everyone gets one - the limit won’t always raise 5 at a time, but each first CREATE unlocked another. Choose only your type for a randomized TCP (if its a noncanon type and you have a base feel free to drop or describe, if you don’t I’ll do my best,) or this time only post a single-type TCP of yours to spawn in for a starter.>>
