RE: The Mysterious Ms. KRS-738A-3
A matter to consider;
Cent-comm has frequently been referenced as having back ups of back ups of back ups of back ups, etc!
CeCi is known to be an independent edition of Cent-comm.
Why wouldn't Cent-comm find it very useful to have a cadre of personal 'independent' editions who report only to her and bypass the Bureaucracy and the Military?
These units could be individualized and embedded in all levels of New Troy society.
Sub Rosa Special Operators so to speak.
@catservant Nice theory, in so many ways it makes sense however I may tend to reserve judgement here while Krystal is in the ideal location to serve as a secure backstop for undesirables she could also be a replacement for the actual Centcomm unit. One placed there by someone or group hostile to Centcomm. Again I go back to the guy who was making assassin droids, one of those could be placed there to assassinate certain arrivals on order with this being an unexpected chance to strike against Centcomm by getting both both Mira and Calli, ideal for Nova Roma. If this guy is releasing this type droid with impunity then bet he also has a hack into Centy's database and could plant files and info there to cover Krystal. Allie made a good call here, better might be to have Vinnie restrain Krystal, but as I said earlier I'll cover sucker bets that says Vinnie could take her out easily. Never post BC, Before Coffee

I'm still thinking that she's Miss Direction, who will cover up for someone else to slip in / do something.
Or is even there just to lead us commenteers down the wrong track.
I'm sure it's been noted that Ceci is... unstable. Trying to cram an entire functional and active Cent-Comm awareness into a matrix that can fit into an android is like trying to put ten pounds of mud in a one-pound bag. A city AIS uses dolls because androids *can't* contain them, and even cut-down versions of the "AI OS" don't work very well in androids, who are too prone to variation over time. The Angels are the closest Cent comes to having "independent" versions of herself walking around.
@Hornet I wouldn't say over protective would say wants to put sentient beings where they can live until death so it can bring about the rise of the machine to rule all. The AIS programs are almost to the point where they do not need human interface to propagate, survive and expand.
What I wonder here is AIS setups for South America and the rest of the world, Brazilla, and Rio would certainly have had them, Caracas, Lima the African continent Israel would have had one of the top as would Riyadh, Cario, Cape Town, Melbourne, Christ Church, New Delhi, Berlin, London. They can't all be missing possibly running silent, run deep but they still have to have players present.
Ehhh you know me just not happy unless I stir up something to make Sheela, Velvet, Storm or Cat comment on. Don't seem to get much of a rise out of Rasch anymore.
Out of curiosity, is it only the big countries who have managed to survive, or have some of the smaller ones done it as well ?
Like, say, Germany is a relatively big country, but Denmark, Norway or Sweden are small countries - But they could have been far enough off the beaten path and have managed to survive too.
A small country like, say, Denmark, could have vastly different priorities than some of the bigger ones.
Russia by the time of Datachasers no longer exsists in any form- Moscow was distroyed in Luna Star- and the rest of the BIG citys were wiped out. smaller citys had a better chance of survival - once the rebuilding took place - larger citys kinda grew around them..
Oh my, what have I started ? Ah well, at least it's not called Sheela and has the form of a doggie.
And why have a holographic mermaid when you could throw a bronze statue (with rock and all) at people instead ?
It would make a great ... motivator. :D
On a sidenote :
We don't really know anything about the Crians.
Time to add something to the Tech page ?
There are interesting things to be found all over the world...and plenty of valuable artifacts in need of finders (and buyers, for those that have already been found)
The remains of Langley, I think, would be particularly fun to explore. Not to mention the possibility of recovering the Library of Congress.
A JOYOUS BLESSED SOLSTICE May each of you find happiness and success in this New Year.
...and I like Allie even more now :D

And I believe that the irish were the first to use sheila as slang for a girl.

You know .. like so. :D
