This is something I did a while ago, but there was no follow-up from it after that. I'd like to revive that and bring this idea to you Iwakuans.
Iwakuans. It sounds like some reptilian species from a different planet.
Uncharted territories, perhaps.
Ehehe, sorry. Continue, please.
Setting
Basically, the world is around...20XX. Body and full-body modifications/alterations/enhancements are quite common in this day and age. Androids are around, but very rare and few. The most androids you'll find are those programmed to work in commercial areas; but beyond recognizing orders and instructions, they're still machines.
Sort of like Ghost in the Shell, only a little more backwards. Maybe.
Perhaps that with a mix of Deus Ex.
Anyway, while all this is thriving, there are always setbacks. You have your usual mix of pro-bionics and anti-modifications and whatnot. Rallies, riots, whathaveyous.
And then, you have the warmongers.
While the world is still somewhat peaceful, there are tensions between countries. No more space-race; it's now the tech-race, and Japan's leading the race here. Sooner or later, someone's going to bring in a big toy for everyone to play; and someone's bound to play it "with" someone.
Plot
Said big toy happens to be a blueprint of some new weapon. However, it's still in its prototype stage, and its creator is now MIA. For what reasons, we know not. What we do know is that the creator did not intend to create this "weapon" as it was meant to be something different, completely unrelated to any sort of weaponry. Still, the creator's intention doesn't really help with the current situation due to being MIA.
The ones who snagged the blueprint intend to continue the project with whatever they can interpret from the plans.
Meanwhile, the very first prototype of the supposed "weapon" is on the loose.
Character
Our story starts at a brothel in Tokyo. We shall be taking this story from the perspective of an amnesiac woman, working in that brothel. It's her first day, and she's with a client; but something happens in between all that. A tragedy, and perhaps, a chance meeting.
The woman is purely human with no enhancements, except for her mechanical right eye that was implanted in there to fix an injury. It is an old model, in which it only operates like a normal eye; nothing more.
Possible Characters
This is open to any of your ideas; but I've included some of these, just to give you a brief idea on what kind of character you can try for.
First Prototype
- a full operational android
- has enhancements
- no built-in weapons whatsoever
- sentient, almost human-like
- on the run from officials
Journalist
- human, unless you have any ideas. :P
- is currently trying to make it big with a big scoop
- newbie
Colonel
- human, with slight enhancements
- privy to the "project"
- no clear motives as of yet
