>Hey, you got a bionic right arm or something! (Or maybe all of you is like that)

Her entire body is synthetic, except her brain. Biological bodies are a rarity, since they require far more resources to operate and are more difficult to maintain.
She can worry more about that later.

She can't find anything substantial to use as a weapon, except her fists. They should hold up to a reasonable amount of abuse though.
She tells the man to keep away, saying she will hit him if he tries anything. She has no idea how effective that would be. His body looks stripped down to the point where he is quite a bit smaller and probably lighter than she is. The result of some kind of customization?

He stops and cocks his head to the side, "Ah... Alright. Sorry." he says, pausing a moment before wildly flailing his arms in the air, "No! I'm not sorry! I don't apologize to garbage! I don't listen to what trash says! You're scrap! Don't condescend to me! Ludicrous! Insane! What kind of sick joke is this? I'll rip you to pieces so you can see that you're nothing but garbage!"

This is not a good situation. If he preys on others, and has modified himself from the baseline, these modifications likely serve to make him more effective at said hunting. Meaning as a baseline model yourself, you would be at a disadvantage in hand to hand combat.

He also appears to be a mentally unstable individual. While this makes him dangerous, but it is also potentially a weakness you can exploit. His behavior is irrational and erratic- if you remain calm and collected, you can function more effectively and efficiently than he can. This could make all the difference in the world in an attempt to in escape or combat him.

Deciding to confuse him with the logic of a punch to the face, Naomi slams her fist into the unstable man. He seems to make an attempt to dodge, but just wavers slightly and receives the full force of the blow to the cheek, which shatters his eye and crushes in the right side of his face.
"Y-you can't... Just t-tra... Ugh." He sputters, reeling back on his heels. "You're going to be the one who's scrap if you try to mess with me," Naomi replies. The battered cyborg turns and flees, wobbling unsteadily as he staggers through over the hills of garbage. Naomi is left alone in the middle of the dump.

Alright. So let's do logic with what little information you have.

You were just created, supposedly to enter a bright happy world. But from all indications, this place has fallen into serious disrepair. There shouldn't be piles of garbage in the street. Newcomers shouldn't be dumped in the scrap heap. Demented, incompetent scavengers should not prowl the streets.

Something has gone wrong. This means, for the moment, you are in danger. You have been fortunate so far, in that the first threat you encountered was poorly coordinated, mentally challenged, and incompetent. But there will likely be worse out there.

If you are to survive, you're going to need information. For the moment, the only way you can find that is by setting out to explore.

Right, what you need to do is find an airframe, any form of airframe. Then you need to salvage all the equipment necessary to repair an aircraft. After that, you should rebuild it, and fly in the opposite direction of this city.

>Acquire Demesi doll in the background
The toy is moist and threadbare. Not really a useful object to carry around.

>Look around for any weapons and/or sharp objects. Bludgeoning objects work too.
Not much of anything laying around looks particularly sturdy. It's all garbage.

>Leave the city
There is no real indication of where 'outside' the city would be, let alone what would be out there.

Naomi sets out to explore, cautiously stepping out for the waste area onto the street. There are a few people roaming around. It is hard to tell from a distance, but the majority seem a little more 'normal' than her first encounter with the scavenger. The fact that she was dropped out of the sky seemingly at random for no apparent reason does seem off somehow. Is the system in control of this place just fabricating people to inhabit it? What reason would it have to do that?
Other than that, everything seems to be the way it should be. Stores, apartments, offices. Maybe it was just a glitch?

But she designed herself, right? Happy was some kind of interface program.

They seem to work well enough. All her fingers move the way she wants and upon closer inspection of other people, most of them have similar designs.

>Enter ArSys.
It looks like it might be a store or business of some kind. The other buildings are unmarked. Probably residential. It might even be something useful, so she begins to make her way down the street toward the ArSys building.

Naomi tells the woman that she was just born or built or both and fell out of the sky, fought off a weird robot man and came here and immediately proceeds to barrage her with questions.

"First of all, happy birthday. My name is Lin and I'll try to clear up some things for you. I've never met anyone this new, but don't worry. After the first few days, everything kind of falls into place," she says with a smile. "Now, where to start?"

>Where am I?
"You're in downtown Montreal. Not the original Montreal, but a lot of cities are named after ancient settlements."

>What am I?
"Oh, this is a bit more philisophical. You're a person? If you're wondering more about your body, it's a standard model. Brand new, obviously. It's sensory input is on par with a natural human body, the strength and dexterity are a bit better. It has far greater durability and although I wouldn't advise doing anything reckless to test that claim, if you should find yourself in a situation where you might be hurt, protecting your head should be the priority, if you can.
Also, any minor damage will be repaired by internal nanites, so as long as you take care of yourself, it won't break down."

>This looks like a place for augmentation. Odd, for a world where you start custom built to your own specifications.
"You do get to choose your initial appearance, but bodies are standard. The market for advanced customization is quite large. From minor cosmetic modification to full body replacement. There's a demand for it all."

>Ask for a copy of the company sales catalog, so you can peruse their offerings.
"While we do offer a few predesigned products, most of our business is in customized parts, since default bodies are slightly randomized, prefitted parts are less viable. "

>get some of that nifty skin stuff that she has
"Oh yes! This model boasts enhanced tactile response and high levels of flexibility, thanks to it's soft materials. It's very similar to natural flesh, with regenerative abilities. Many people also find the aesthetics of this model to their liking.
I wouldn't recommend it for anything requiring heavy exertion, as it is relatively easy to damage, but for anything a delicate touch, it is absolutely top of the line!"

>get an arm with a chainsaw built into it.
"Ah... "

>Ask for police-grade subdermal armor and a basic skin-sheathe for your arms to prevent grit buildup. Also inquire as to the flexibility of their payment plans and possible prefered customer status.
"That is quite the order. Assuming you want to mount on this on your existing body, plus structural reinforcements on the arm. The estimated cost of these modifications is 23,000 quan. You might have less issue with would-be attackers with this," she laughs nervously.

>Ask how much it is for a more basic strength boost instead of the chainsaw.
"That would depend on the extent of the augment and how compact you want it to be."

>Ask about the cost of her type of body model, ask how much the synthetic skin costs
"It's not just skin. It's a full body frame, synthetic muscle system and nanocell skin with enhanced nerve response and sensory range. The standard model in an average size is 60,000 quan."

>Okay. How do we get more quan?
"Jobs in the service industry; stores, restaurants, structural or mechanical repair. Buying and selling commodities, company stocks. There's a lot of ways. There's even bounty hunting, combat expositions and extreme sports for the more adventurous individual."

>we can just beat scavengerbots to death and loot them when they attack us for the rest.
"Well, intentionally killing someone is a serious offense outside of legitimate self-defense and collecting bounty heads of high class offenders. So be careful about that unless you want to be the one being collected on.
Alright, a quick word on how the law works. You are free to do whatever you like, so long as your actions don't infringe on someone else's freedom to do that they want. That basically means that it is illegal to steal, damage or destroy someone's property, body, life or restrict them against their will. Actual murder will cause a bounty to be placed on you that anyone can collect on.
Any offense sort of causing the brain to cease functioning is actually just kind of an inconvenience, but that doesn't mean people won't take exception to it."

>What was the deal with the scavenger?
"People can do what they want. Threatening to strip someone down for parts is kind of frowned upon, though."

>Why were we dumped on a trash heap?
"Random distribution. Try not to take it too hard."

>Popular mods, jobs, and thanks for answering the occaisonally deranged questions of a quest protagonist.
"It's so wildly varied it's hard to say."

>any pressing mechanobiological issues
"Nothing I can think of. All the technology has long since reached a state of flawless performance, for normal use."

>thanks for answering the occasionally deranged questions
"Oh no, it's no problem. Things are usually quiet this time of day anyway."

First order of business is renting a place to stay, so you'll have a safe base of operations and a place to stash your things, once you have things. You don't need a lot of space or anything special right now, so get a hole-in-the-wall apartment with the very basics for now, to conserve your cash. Ask Lin where to go to check the listings for open apartments.

Since studying mechanics and cybernetics sounds like a good idea, ask Lin what offerings are around for someone who wishes to better their knowledge and skill in the technical fields for little to no money. Even just a public library would be a start; You can buy used tools and supplies to try stuff later.

Before leaving, ask Lin what it would cost to have an emergency homing beacon and transponder installed in your head, right next to the brain-case, of the kind that you could activate in case you're trapped under rubble, your body below the neck was stolen, or you sustain enough damage you can't move your limbs at all. You'd also like one that'd auto-activate in case it detects near-fatal levels of damage inflicted. Also inquire about setting up an auto-bounty account for your rescue, so if the emergency beacon does go off you aren't relying totally on a good person coming along to save you. You won't be able to put anything into it right now, but knowing how to go about it when you do will be fine for now.

Let's get a basic weapon. Say, a forearm blade or something like that. Something within our budget. Well, before we get a weapon we should probably find out how much it costs to get a place to stay. Also, what about food? Does this body consume organic matter for sustenance or do we just plug in somewhere?

As for what job we can take, well, bounty hunting is exciting. What sort of extreme sports are there, though? That could be cool too.

491925

Naomi gets herself settled into an apartment and quickly learns a good deal about cybernetics repair and maintenance, in order to become an assistant to a cybernetics technician.
She makes enough to sustain herself, and considers bounty hunting as a more lucrative career, but going after hardened criminals without some combat upgrades is probably more suicidal than she would like. She does do some repairs on people in the more dangerous trades, though. They seem to be some of the more... eccentric members of the population and the bounties they hunt are likely just as wildly varied.

After all these thousands of years of human history, things have advanced to the point where there is no real reason to fight, yet people still find reasons; only now there is much less risk, anything that does not kill you can be shrugged off. Are they just doing it for the thrill?

That's insane, but in the back of her mind, Naomi feels the urge to indulge in the insanity. Just a little, to see what all the fuss is about.

Maybe just a simple weapon mod for dealing with something small to start.

If we're going to go this route, we should do it as techno-mage / gadgeteer. If we understand (some of) how cyborgs work, we can make weapons designed to interfer or disable the functioning of mechanical parts / bodies / weapons.

Make yourself a pulse EMP blaster, or something, to start. (We'll obviously need more specialized gear before going after combat-hardened people with shielding, but that should be enough for punks). And get some speed / reflexes / dexterity upgrades. Good for battle, and your day job.

depending on how good you are at cybernetics now maybe you can MAKE a few upgrades for yourself, like being faster, stronger, or even more durable and make yourself a simple weapon.
It would probly be cheaper if you made it yourself instead of just buying the upgrades so that would leave you a little more speending money. but if you can't build your own upgrades yet just buy what you think would be most helpful/useful

Gamma Ray Laser, explode all the things! Also, begin gathering materials for a Space Ship. Fuck this place, let's go somewhere else and build our own civilization. With blackjack, and hookers.

Hm, maybe you could use those technical skills to jurry rig upgrades and nerve resistors, that way you don't have to buy a lot of stuff, just scavenge stuff and use your new skills!

DON'T DO IT! Let's keep being productive members of society and lead a socially acceptable life! I don't want us to get hurt, we're too cute for that!

If GRASERs or Electrolasers are unavailable; piston-fist.

Yes. After Grasers, Pistons are the BEST weapon.

A gamma ray laser isn't simple. Anything that involves sizable amounts of radioactive materials (and especially specific radioactive isomers) isn't going to be cheap or simple.

If you want simple, go with something tried and true, like a gun. If you want to get fancy, a gun that fires armor-piercing rounds.

That's BORING! YOU'RE BORING. And Grasers don't NEED radioactive materials, they're based around creating a medium of particles that will GENERATE a gamma-ray when charged by the laser's powersource. The more you know!

Could we save the giant robot ideas until we actually have/are a giant robot? Putting these weapons on anything aside from a mobile fortress would take considerable shenanigans that may not be compatible with physics and/or logic.

Oh, so only giant robots can have grasers and rusty metal skullguns now? Nonsense. We need some kind of defensive upgrade, we were attacked not two seconds after being born in this hellscape.

A Free Electron Laser can generate a coherent Gamma-ray beam without the need for a radio active source (as could a traditional lasing medium of the correct composition pumped to sufficient energy, though you'd need Gamma-ray 'mirrors').

On second thought, piston-leg rather than piston-arm. Free jump-assist, and kickboxing robots aren't all that common.

Elecrolaser is simple and affective, and has some pretty awesome options for upgrade. Generating a zeta pinch inside someone's robotic body = indefinitely disabled enemy's that require hardware replacements to fix, and there's little chance off damaging their brain. and we can do lots of other cool things to.

Free Electron Lasers DO sound pretty sweet, but would they generate Spontaneous Fission Reactions like a pure Graser would?

Also, Jumpy Legs are best legs. Kangaroos are death on two hippity hops.

Piston fist or power fist sounds amazing.

Piston fist would be unwieldy and imbalanced.
An ideal place for a piston would be near her center of gravity.

Crotch-piston. Marks would surrender on sight.
