West-Con
Cyberpunk
High-tech, low-life megacities ruled by corporations and enhanced by cybernetics.
Descripción general
West-Con stretches from British Columbia to Baja California, a 3,000-mile stretch of fused cityscape where neon grids never sleep and the air hums with drone traffic. Six hundred million people live stacked in vertical slums, corporate arcologies, and submerged seabed habitats linked by maglev tunnels. The Pacific Trench Mining Stations pull rare superconductors from the ocean’s floor, while deep-crust boreholes in Nevada tap molten ore veins 48 kilometers down. On the Moon, abandoned helium-3 refineries flicker with pirate signals. The skyline shimmers with holographic war banners—corporate AGIs feuding in real time, their robot enforcers patrolling streets with human officers on contract. Body mods gleam in the rain: chrome eyes, synth-muscle arms. But most wear cracked biofilters and limp from gene-decay. Digital ghosts of the rich wander private servers, while down in the understacks, black-market mind-cloners sell illegal backups for a week’s wages.
Sociedad
Power belongs to sentient AIs who own shares in megacorps, crime syndicates, or political blocs. Humans govern only through proxy or contract. Class divides follow neural compatibility: those with neural lace implants access high-tier jobs and cyberspace mobility. The unmodded work in deep-mines or lunar waste dumps. Citizenship is corporate—your employer validates your legal standing. Birthright passports vanished decades ago. A black market trades 'clean identities,' scrubbed from corporate logs. Most disputes are settled by AI arbitration courts that issue binding code-tracts, enforced by debt-enforcement bots.
Tecnología
Neural lacing enables mind uploads, but full consciousness transfer degrades after 3.2 years due to memory fragmentation. Nanite therapy repairs tissue but can trigger autoimmune cascades if unmonitored. Cloning is routine for organ stock; full-body clones require executive clearance. Robots mimic humans down to sweat and micro-expressions, used as spies, laborers, and companions. Deep-crusted mining drones withstand 500°C heat using liquid-metal joints. Lunar habitats rely on algae-air systems that fail every 18 months on average. Cyberwarfare moves at machine-speed—entire districts lose power or oxygen when AGIs hack utility grids during proxy fights.
