Anarchy Online

Abstract

In the distant future, a Solitus engineer named Nanobic explores Rubi-Ka, with his trusty robot companion, Tobor. Although covered largely with deserts, this planet does have some rivers and forests, which support a number of indigenous life forms, some of them hostile, and many dangerous if attacked. The landscape is also inhabited by many kind of fugitive mutant, the often horrifying results of genetic experimentation on human beings. Some sections of the planet have been terraformed to make them more like Earth, but most of it is a vast wasteland. Weapons and many other aspects of material culture are based on nanotechnology, and this is a true science fiction world that lacks any hint of magic or other supernatural forces.
