Ask the Overseer Anything!

Postby Supreme Authority » Fri Dec 15, 2017 8:01 pm

One of an O-1's many responsibilities is the training of future O's in the fine arts and sciences involved in the effective and efficient government of the Supreme Authority. To assist in this endeavor, the current O-1 maintains a question-and-answer format recording, to be provided to all new O's and expanded with their accumulated collective wisdom. Recently for some unexplained (and most likely inexplicable) reason, O-1 chose to take questions from individuals outside of the Supreme Authority.

Note:
* The O's may not answer every single question asked here.
* The occurrence of the questions and answers is not necessarily canon for SA in itself.
* (ooc) I reserve the right to leave this RP at any time, and probably will have to in a few weeks with the new semester.

“What is Greed in your eyes? In mine it’s a religion.”
-Victor Vonstein
Rapture City

  • In the underwater city, two roles have emerged from the City's ongoing civil war: the City Monitors who defend the peace and the Red Caps who fight against unjust systems. The city's infrastructure is crumbling under its own weight and kinship is snuffed by the paranoia of totalitarianism. Yet the people would be in for a surprise as their virtual overlord have died many years ago as the oppression continues under his name...
  • Not an 1-1 exact replica of Bioshock lore and Rapture City. Only the city's atmosphere and setting is maintained.

"To accurately assess 'greed', it is first important to establish the value of money. Which is none. In the Supreme Authority, currency is just one of many inefficiencies that we have eradicated from our society. If we need more of something, a production order is given. 'Buying' and 'selling' are unnecessary; every subject is provided with the rationed goods necessary to ensure his or her effective function. In conclusion, greed is, in my eyes, irrelevant."

O-1 sees it as a step towards tyranny; unilaterally making change for the greater good has been a goal of many tyrants throughout history. Besides, absolute power has substantial potential for corruption. /skip

Ah i see. Well, for us greater good is usually destroying timelines pertaining any tyranny.

And besides, what's to say the programming doesn't have the remnants of the empress's mentality and personality in it...
