Welcome to the CERES! You are now under arrest!
Did you think the glitches were over? Boy, were you wrong! Through the last remnants of the digital kerfluffle, the latest batch of recovered code has manifested in CERES' computer systems as the guilty parties. Yes, that's right, all incoming arrivals are now placed on the wanted list, accused of having committed the heinous crime of creating and releasing the gorg0n virus all over Cerealia. These vicious twelve have been working together all along and conspiring against CERES, and it's now up to everyone to figure out if the new arrivals are truly guilty or if they are as innocent and confused as they claim.
In the meantime, CERES has dispatched assassination droids to stop the accused and bring them to justice via disembowelment. So while CERES rushes to stop the droids from committing murder, characters are perfectly welcome to a.) soil themselves b.) fight off the droids c.) run while soiling themselves or d.) cry a lot. e.) ask for assistance!
"ASSASSINATION MODE: ONLINE
OBJECTIVE: ELIMINATE THE ACCUSED
TIMEFRAME: 24:00 HOURS
JUDICIAL UNIT-00345 DISPATCHED"

//SCENARIOS.EXE
PHASE I [ 00 01 ]
It's a minute passed midnight, and the newest sets of recovered code are being spat out of ViViD and into Cerealia. Before the joyful reunions begin, an announcement starts blaring through everyone's computer screen, TV sets, devices, billboard screens, and so on. The image flashes with twelve names and twelve pictures along with a list of crimes each person has committed. They continue to flash again and again throughout the colony, alerting everyone of these heinous criminals. It's up to anyone if they want to engage them or stay far, far away from these perverts and miscreants.
As the arrivals begin to explore, they will see themselves plastered on just about every screen imaginable.
PHASE II [ 200 ]
It's still dark outside, hardly anyone out and about. It's the perfect time for an assassination attempt because that's when the information is received and processed by Cerealia's judicial system, but this isn't a job for any ordinary donut-eating cop. No, this is far greater than that. They bring out the big guns.
Twelve assassination droids, clad in armor and carrying katana, are immediately dispatched and sent to take out each of the accused at any cost. Characters are welcome to do any of the above choices while veterans to Cerealia can assist the arrivals, assist the droids, or just sit back and watch others suffer. It's completely up to you. They can also run into the droids on their search and try to interact with them.
PHASE III [ 700 ]
Your friendly CEO has finally gotten his ass out of bed, but by then, who knows how many people are left alive? After hearing of the kerfluffle, he decides to issue a cease and desist on the assassination droids, and instead, has his investigation units step in to confirm that the new arrivals are not guilty of any of the crimes and charges listed under their name. They will be pulled aside for painful, painful questioning before being released to explore as they wish.
To make up for all the damages and trauma incurred from the near-death attempts, Julius will also be giving the new arrivals a settlement of 20,000 credits each, so go out and party.
PHASE IV [ 1200 ]
By noon, the incident has been cleared up with little to no blood spilled (hopefully). New arrivals are welcome to explore and enjoy their new living arrangements or possibly lie in bed and just cry some more. Either way, welcome to the magic that is Cerealia. The CEO will announce that the last of the virus has been officially cleaned up and taken care of, and he'll be issuing a video with a public apology for all.
BONUS [ whyo'clock ]
Among the police droids dispatched, there will be a rehabilitative droid in a dinosaur suit, looking to cure the criminals of their improper behavior and their moral indiscretions through the power of LOVE and HUGS. It was developed after the researchers in CERES did extensive research on other worlds and found that this mystical creature was capable of creating worldwide joy and cheer. It will be chasing those who are on the Wanted List exclusively, but it will not stop at just them. Your character will be accosted and hugged whether they like it or not.

no subject
[Not that he knows anything about that, no, definitely not. (Except he totally does.)
Though honestly then Tenka's ducking the next swing of the katana with practiced movements, having fought against them many a time before and easily deflecting the next blow before knocking the robot off its feet.
. . . and then he pauses, thoughtfully considering.]
Though I guess this isn't the government that I know...
no subject
If they're the government's machines, then they don't have to worry about that, do they?
[He shrugs, making sure to keep out of the way of any loose pieces of metal that may come flying off the robot. Those things can be deadly, if you're not careful!]
But if you're like us, then they're who you're going to deal with from now on!
no subject
[Are they also those pieces of extracted data or whatever? Is no one in this town a normal person who naturally was born and raised here?
Why is the future so weird?]
no subject
The people who were brought here from other worlds, of course. You're another one, aren't you?
[What else could he be? Cynbel is at least 60% sure that everyone who comes from this world is part robot or something, and Tenka looks normal enough, except for the hair.]
no subject
[He pauses at that. Well, admittedly he kind of just assumed that the people who were brought from other worlds would be in... a smaller number....]
How many of us are there? I thought you were born and raised here!
no subject
[He shakes his head, waving a hand in denial.]
I haven't met everyone, truthfully, but after a few weeks... I've seen at least fifty of us, or so.
no subject
[And honestly he's scrunching up his nose. He doesn't like that at all.]
That's way too many people. [Or maybe too few, if all their homes were destroyed?] Then everyone else here... are they even human?
no subject
Oh, not everyone! Though I have seen more humans than anyone like me... But that's not unusual.
[He says it in a super casual way, like anyone would have noticed by now that he's not human at all.]
And the people that lived here before us seem to be humans, as well. I suppose they're trying to save people like themselves.
