The setting: In a high-tech futuristic earth, humanity lives in large, corporate-owned dome cities, completely devoid of nature. People are assigned basic, menial jobs at the Task and Purpose Center, and they work the mandated timeslots, then go home to enjoy Corporate-Approved Entertainment. People's names are only used among close friends; the rest of society knows them and refers to them by their ID number, which must be worn at all times for easy identification by the Scanners - robotic law enforcement officials who watch for lawbreakers (suspected or proven), and those who try to shake up the Corporate Order. They also need their ID numbers to receive their Nutritional Substance Intakes from an approved, company-owned source. Plenty of jobs are automated besides those of the Scanners - but you are one of the 78% of the population who's actually human.
And you're sick to death of this shit.
You want a happier, more beautiful world. You want to start something wonderful, and leave this place better than you found it.
You are a warrior of light and love. But you know that your mission is a dangerous one.
So, what are you willing to do?
