MECHANIC
Sometimes you have stretched UV maps. Other times, it's a broken DLC patch. Regardless of what corner of TPL is busted, Mechanics have the right tool for the job. They're expensive, but you're going to have to call them anyway after you try and fix it yourself.

project paradigm |
The earth is frozen. Locked in a modern ice age. The world governments had come together with a plan to save humanity by moving everyone into the metaverse. It had been called "THE Paradigm shift". The first ten thousand volunteers, ready to light the way, were called CyberBrokers. Everything went wrong. Two centuries later, a complacent human race copes with a great awakening.
the source
The light. The source. The originator of all. Asherah was the first CyberBroker and all that came after her began their existence starting with her genetic algorithms. She is the reason TPL exists.

hacker
name: Candy from moldy species: Human class: explorers
Look around you. Everything in TPL is made from code. Hackers hunt from far corner to far corner, querying rough edges for exploits. Sometimes, they'll take commission, but, more than likely, if they're talking to you, be polite. There's a very expensive reason why you should.

As the first attempts at manmade artificial intelligence, the AI has shown, at times, remarkable indifference set alongside a fierce hatred. Do not let their cuddly appearance lull you into complicity. They are indeed after all of your toys.

As the very first denizens of TPL, the Politicians started as a small group of lab chimpanzees, wired into an early harness prototype as an attempt to determine the safety levels around Connection. These early rigs were not safe. Later, it was discovered the chimps' harnesses had destroyed the neurotransmitters associated with empathy.

"The story of the paradigm lost"
name: Unironic ken species: human class: leftovers
mind: 17 body: 13 soul: 26
..... Like his fellow CyberBrokers, Unironic Ken's body was somewhere in a government facility, cryogenically frozen while they waited for technology to advance enough to restore them to their bodies.
That was two hundred years ago.
Instead, humanity had been applying its vast, combined intellect toward making and selling more efficient JPEGs. It was kind of depressing, really.
"What have I missed?" Spice didn't like to dwell on the physical world too much with Ken.
"Oh, my spicy little meatball, you missed everything."
"Really?" Had he been anyone else, she'd have stomped him to bytes with a steel-reinforced mech boot. No one called her Meatball anymore.
"Yes! The Apes and Cats are at war again, you have a couple DAO votes to cast, and four airdrops to claim."

"Wow. Busy night."
One of the best parts of being friends with a CyberBroker was that they were into everything. They went everywhere. They knew everyone. Decking for a few generations of humans will have that affect.
"A broker never stops." He winked up at the giant robot. "You gonna let me in?"
Spice toggled the ground hatch release, and Unironic Ken climbed aboard. They had some fun to find. Especially in this world. That failed experiment we all call TPL - The Paradigm Lost.
