Alpha Complex Test Drive Meme

Alpha Complex opened Sunday, July 31st. Please feel free to take a Test Drive to see if the environment would suit your character! All potential players are welcome.

It may be your first day in Alpha Complex or your hundredth, either way, you are in serious trouble.

In a bid to win sympathy and new recruits, the Frankenstein Destroyers - a secret society within Alpha who sees all bots as enemies, has uploaded a virus that is affecting all bots within the complex.

For the next twenty four hours, every bot you see will be the enemy. Your assigned Personal Digital Companion(PDC), a personal communication device, has turned on you and is intentionally misfiring your texts, phone calls and videos. The Bouncy Bubble Beverage machine in the cafeteria is shooting out bottles at passers by at high speeds. The high tech vacuum cleaner used to vacuum your clearance level's common room is attempting to suck up everything in sight. Elevators are trying to coerce people to climb out, so they can behead them. That adorable Petbot you purchased last week is trying to tear your throat out. That Guardbot from the Armed Services Sector is attempting to take out citizens, one by one. Autocars are driving themselves, right onto sidewalks and through windows...

Will you fight for your right to exist or hole up somewhere safe until the chaos passes?

Do not fear, citizen! The Computer and it's high advisors are working to restore order.

In the meantime, be safe and beware of bots and traitors!

"Not just," Oliver answered with a jerk that could be considered a shake of his head. To be fair, he'd kept to himself for the most part. He wasn't thinking 'cannon fodder' exactly, but it was easier to protect people he didn't know. He hadn't planned on making friends. Allies, maybe, but not friends. The fact that Barry was here made him wonder just how many other people he knew were here. Diggle. Felicity. Thea. The idea made him sick.

"Do we know what's causing it, yet?" he asked, grabbing Barry and pulling them both out of the way of some kind of laser bolt. Everything was very mundane here for all that he wasn't sure how he'd gotten here or how he was supposed to get back home. He wasn't about to trust that Barry still had his speed.

But he'd heard some of the things that had happened while Barry hadn't had his powers and so he still trusted the man to have his back, so once they were out of immediate harms way, he split away. If the two of them could herd the thing, it would be safer than trying to lure it out by himself.

How long had Oliver been in Alpha Complex and why hadn't Barry seen him? It was true that the number of specials were growing everyday but ever since Felicity and Cisco had arrived, he'd tried to keep an eye out for others from his world.

"It's a virus," Barry said, as he was pulled out of the way of a laser beam. "Uploaded to all the robots in the complex. Felicity's working on hacking it, but in the meantime we're trying to keep the damage minimal."

To people, anyway. If the distant fires and sounds of gunfire were any indication there was still plenty of property damage being carried out. Barry followed Oliver's head and split away. The robot seemed to hesitate and then went after Oliver.

There was a hesitation so brief that only a speedster would notice. Felicity was here. On the one hand, it meant that he could protect her. On the other, he didn't really want to contemplate anyone he cared about in this place. Well, it was done. He couldn't just magically wish her away. At least on the plus side, he had someone he trusted trying to fix this on the end where she was most comfortable. She wasn't out in this mess and that was all for the better.

He didn't have time to hesitate long, though, because the machine followed him. Better him than Barry, he supposed. He weaved between blasts and headed toward the nearest source of power. If Barry had a good mind, and Oliver knew he did, then he would come around and be waiting for them. Oliver just had to trust in that. And in the meantime, he had to not get himself killed.

Easier said than done when it was just him and his bow and he had more than a close shave as one of its blasts seared his bicep. He gritted his teeth and kept moving.
