Cliché? I Don't Remember What it Means.

Chapter One: A Backstory, Quickly Forgotten.

*Naruko's House, IATW Dimension*

Naruko's boredom had reached an unusual spike. Her brain working hard to find a solution, a side project that she could check up on every once and a while, something she could change... relatively well.

She looked for a solution on the internet, something she enjoyed greatly in this dimension she had settled into, something she could share with others who might share certain likes and dislikes.

Her solution was found easily, right on her desktop.

Runescape.

It was another solution to an older boredom, but it would be the solution again.

But it was too simple, a game? There are so many.

A Game, turned into an internet show... that people could interact with? Now that was a good idea.

She had just the solution to her boredom, and the boredom of others. And it was going to be... Skillcape levels of successful.

She went into a link, rather weak from the amount of 'mind cable' it was made up of.

'Schrödinger! I require some of your... services.' Naruko sent through the link, getting a strange laugh from the corner of her computer as a... rather strange image appeared in the corner.

Her old Conversion Conquest was in Chibi form, saluting on her computer, with a question mark above its head.

She got a little funny with the reply, opening up a notepad document with her list of commands on it.

'Copy my mind, wipe it of almost everything, and make it compatible with Runescape as a new AI'

While he had that to work on, she had other things to do.

'Time to go buy a Runescape server.' She thought.

*A day later*

'Unknown Benefactor Buys large share of game company to test new AI!' read a news article on the internet.

*further reading*

Jagex, creators of the successful MMORPG Runescape, has received a large sum of money to buy a lot of shares, coming with a few strange demands.

A copy of the game's code, along with its updates and a server to host it.

With the large 'donation', the company pretty much had to agree, but with the terms the person wouldn't sell it as something different.

They agreed, because they had other plans in mind.

This server would be open to a select few who already had an account for the game, but certain modifications would be added to the quests, world and other things.

This person would be adding another thing to the game, a NPC of her own creation, which acts as a Player.

It sounds simple (there is even a couple in the game that already do this) but it is much more complicated than that.

This NPC would be able to fully impact this version of Runescape, change quests to fit their mindset, create items not possible to be created normally and much more.

It was a full blown AI.

This unknown person is going to unleash a character that could change Runescape as we know it.

*end*

Naruko was laughing as she read this.

First because it didn't explain things very well, the writer of the article must have been pretty confused.

And two, because she was the one who had done this, with a little help of hypnotist mist from Anko.

She was going to release her mind into Runescape, with some rather strange abilities and the power to change the game into a way that she liked it.

And other people will be able to join in, and watch. One Thousand lucky people would join in with the "Gielinor Naruko" and the rest would be able to watch

If she didn't like the way things went, she would roll back the clock with the help of the Cat-Boy under her servitude.

A 'ding' signalled the beginning of the server's startup, the livestream started, a few people there to watch from the start ('I expected more, but hey what can you do?') and some with their special keys to already get in

(Elsewhere, a Yellow Lizard Monster was staring intently at her computer, ready to play this strange new adventure she was invited to, along with a couple of her other friends. She had played Runescape before; in fact she had played it a lot.)

The Chibi Cat-Boy, resting on her taskbar, gave a thumbs up as he seemed to be typing in something on a laptop of his own.

The live view her world camera flickered on as it stared intently at an eighteen year old Runescape-Style Naruko with commoner's clothes washed up at Ashdale only to get dragged off by some strange crab creatures.

Fifty people logged into the game at this time, with the implemented "Naru Cam" showing a view of nothingness. At the moment.

Naruko, who had control of a world-wide server messaging system hooked up to her own voice. Spoke aloud for the players to hear, while it was also getting translated in chat, with the help of Schrödinger.

"Good day to you lucky adventurers, who were invited to play this version of Runescape. Right now you might have noticed some things that are... different from the regular game, these things will expand as certain things are met. One thing is the 'Naru Cam'. This has been added so if you don't have the stream open you can keep an eye on the happenings of this world's main event. Right now Naru, has just washed up at Ashdale, and has been taken by some strange creatures. The camera should start up soon.

Anyway, if you check your quest logs you may have noticed there is a new sign next to the Novice quest, A Shadow over Ashdale. This is a 'Naru-fication mark' and this means Naru has changed the quest in some way, or is now taking part in it. The first player to do this quest when the mark is added shall get a bonus reward, along with whatever they said to Naru if they had a chance being assigned to the next quest doers, along with some negative answers.

Get going, your skills and items in the bank are the same is in regular Runescape, so whoever can get prepped first will be the one to do it. Good luck."

With that Naruko turned off her Microphone, and watched intently as Naru(the now official name to this version of herself) was placed into a strange pod by a crab being known as a Crassian Scout.

'Time for the adventure to truly begin.'

Hey.

I'm sure some of you are wondering, WTF IS THIS S***.

Well remember how I said 'I got back into Runescape'

My thinking brought up a couple ideas, like "How could this be better... well how could it have a happier ending (this was after reading up on one of the Fremennik Sagas, Vengeance and thinking, wow how would that be if BLAHBLAHBLAH)

There was also a thought of "Naruko could go into Runescape, that would be cool."

So I just worked on it from there.

There were also a few rules the players were told to follow. This is one of them.

"Don't tell Naruko she is a game, which means it is highly suggested you role-play while in this server so she doesn't get suspicious. If that happens, you will be banned(temporarily if you let it out accidently) and the world will be turned back to before she met you and you said it."

Anyway.

Orbit.

Cya.
