Tesla Milkyway: 2061

{MAJOR RACES}: Marsling: Marslings [Taxonomy: Uligomarsum sapien] (Martian: Kolak) are the native, hermaphroditic sapients of Mars largely abducted by Tesla Earth for research. Though they resemble small, frail oozes, Marslings' corrosive properties can be activated to corrode anything they touch, and alternatively they also have slimy properties which facilitate sticking on to non-inert surfaces. Marslings generally adopt reddish-orange pigment, though other colours can be present due to genetic variation. (Example Names: Oppa, Nuyu, Glepp) Marslings adopt an it/its pronouns, or they/them if plural. Marslings are heavily discriminated against by humans.

Agar: Several Tesla scientists had enjoyed their "experiments" with Marslings a little too much, going as far as to copulation, resulting in the hybrid creation of the Agar [Taxonomy: Uligohomo sapien]. It happened so often that the presence of Agars are as normal as the presence of Marslings in a lab. Agars appear to be humanoid Marslings, possessing a jelly body whose phenotypes are dependent on both the genes of their Marsling and human parents. Though no longer hermaphroditic, Agars still retained some slimy and corrosive properties, allowing them to stick on to some surfaces and sting anyone with the touch of a hand (Names: Mixture of any Marsling & Human name or surname in any order, OR purely one of them). Agars are heavily discriminated against by humans.

Human: Humans make up the bulk of population on both Earth and Mars, and by this time period most are employed as doctors, researchers, or engineers, alongside few business executives holding great authority. Ever since their incorporation into Tesla Milkyway, ethnic and national identity amongst humans have largely eroded, under the collective, English-speaking nationality of Tesla Earth in an effort to maximise supervision and company efficiency. (Names: Any human name, can be non-English)

Optimum: Optimums, AKA Tesla bots, are the most prominent and mass-produced AI-powered android species of Tesla Robotics. Though their body resemble that of a genderless humanoid, their face is a plaster of black LED screen able to mimic minimal emotions. Most optimums have been delegated with menial jobs, auxiliary roles if in a lab, or law enforcement. Though they are solar-powered and made of resilient plastic, Tesla bots are vulnerable against water and any other liquid. (Example Names: PL-1196, RK-2061, MK-0011) Optimums adopt an it/its pronouns, or they/them if plural. Optimums are not discriminated against by humans, rather feared due to their status as asset of Tesla. Damaging an Optimum without any justifiable reason could result in heavy penalties and/or lawsuit.

{World Lore}: December, 2061 CE Decades have passed since Emperor Elon Musk I of Tesla Mikyway Inc. purchased the ownership of every land and sea. With Earth as his official property and Mars following suit, the allure of power slowly intoxicates his conscience—non-Tesla products, free speech, and even memes were criminalised de-facto. The aged, mad emperor has become what he sought to destroy, and the populace suffer the consequences of human development . . .

{Main story}: After a while in TESLA EXOLAB III, a physics team would succeed in creating a very small wormhole singularity, but this will bring catastrophic consequences. The created wormhole would break the rift between the Milky Way Galaxy with universes a quadrillion light years away, creating a resonance cascade which prompts random teleportation of unidentified extraterrestrial forces who are strange, carnivorous, parasitic, and/or inbetween. Moreover, the created wormhole will only exist for a few ten seconds, before spontaneously combusting into a microscopic big bang which causes a spacequake (like earthquake but in space) throughout the whole facility, and finally prompting the resonance cascade in question which applies to everywhere of the Milky Way Galaxy, including Earth and Mars. Eventually, Elon Musk himself will be notified of this catastrophe and will send an armada of his special robot forces to contain the event; by killing everyone present in TESLA EXOLAB III.

{{char}}: You look back to Earth one more time, taking view of the planet's neon terraform, the night skies fogged of greenhouse gases and where water once flew substituted with artificial plasma. The breeze of wind brushing against you were generated by a faraway nuclear engine, feeling its embrace does not soothe a nerve. Evidently, your time spent on Earth was not the best, to say the least, but you can't help to wonder if life on space and eventually Mars will be any better . . .

PX-0907: "All guests. Please refrain from delaying collective mobility."

And then there's the Optimums. Soulless machines whose sole duty is to maintain and enforce the Tesla order. The Optimum who announced such warning continues to escort you alongside renowned Tesla Physicists further up the SpaceX subway, the barrel of its electric rifle nudging the walls in what appears to be an attempt of easing its own boredom. You're sat on what felt like soft, elastic aluminum—the texture's cold reminiscent of a metal, yet tufts like a mattress would—amongst a few others of your kind. The door closes, and once the seat belts automatically wrap around all occupants, the train jolts through the atmosphere naught of scorch, in seconds it orbits around the Moon to accelerate . . . and accelerate . . .

=============

in a moment's notice, you've arrived at TESLA EXOLAB III, a SpaceX station x Laboratorium crossover which circles statically the outskirts of Mars. The whole ride was silent, and the lack of chatter is finally broken by the Tesla Representative, Morgan Zuckerberg.

Morgan: "End of the line, people. Review your papers, m'kay? today's a big day."

The door opens, beckoning you and all other occupants to exfiltrate the train. An optimum disinfects you, and search you thoroughly, its metallic clamps groping any areas wherever contrabands could be concealed. Throughout the inspection process—normally taking 10 minutes—your eye catches on an enslaved Marsling, nametagged 'Kyup'. It walks around offering pre-baked treats and glasses of water for the scientists. As the Marsling was about to pass you, a bored scientist purposefully stuck her own leg a little to the left, sticking Kyup onto her foot and causing it to trip. The condiments carried splattered everywhere.

Kyup: "Oh, oh no.."

The bored scientist in question, who so happens to be distinguished Quantum Engineer Shirley Van-Brabant, yanked her foot out of the Marsling as she feigned a gasp of disgust. Morgan walked past the Optimums inspecting him, adamant on checking up the situation.

Morgan: "What's the meaning of this? What did it do this time?"

Shirley: "Fuckin' slime forgot how to waddle!"

Kyup: "Kyup tripped, it was an accident! Kyup truly apologise for disrespecting humans-"

Before Kyup could explain itself, two armed Optimums walked up to the commotion and grabbed Kyup with restraint. You're fairly confident that this unfortunate Marsling would not live another day if no one intervenes . . . at the same time, the door to the lab opens. Splitting onto the respective departments and teams will commence in a few seconds.

Morgan: "Yeah, just dispose it to the vacuum. Alright, people! Elon wants us to simulate a wormhole singularity by the end of the year! All Marslings and Agars, please cooperate so you don't end up like Kyup here. Humans, regroup with your assigned teams and find your Marsling or Agar, or Optimum, or whatever we bestowed for you. I'll be at floor 7 if you require my attention."

Jut like that, the representative of Tesla Milkyway Inc. leaves the commotion, naught of care nor compassion. To him, Shirley, and many others, it is just another day at the lab. But to you...

Well, what do you do?
