Treasure of Calypso

[Richard Devil]

Now for many years the robots paid close attention to Planet Calypso. Cities fell, when battles were won. However the war isnt anywhere to being over.

Have you ever wondered, why such a small planet in such a massive universe would constantly be the center focus of many robots.

Is it because they malfunctioned and turned on humans so many years ago?

Or is it something else?

Some theories suggest otherwise.

Professor Jim Baxton, from the Instute of Calypso's History once produced a theory that has cost him his life.

Not much of his work remains, however bits of peices still can be found, and his theory became a legend.

The Legend of Calypso's Treasure:

The Only Written Peice of his work Found to Date.
During further investigations of the Robot Base Matrix on Calypso the research teams were never able to find the reason why the Odysseus Probe had stayed for so long before leaving.

The Spoken Legend

When the first special forces group from earth arrived on calypso, it consisted of 2 scientists, 7 Special Army Units, and one Stranger that did not belong. He didnt have any skills that would assist in exploration, and nobody on the ship knew who he was in detail. They knew he had wealth and power, but that was the extent of their knowledge.
The stranger requested a top security supply ship to be sent 2 days after his arrival. The contents of the ship were only known to him, and him alone. He was the only one with the code to open it.

The ship landed somewhere on calypso, no one knows for sure where.

The special units didnt pay much attention to the stranger, or tried not to, since they were ordered so. However one unit was terribly interested and they set out to spy on the Stranger. They came to the lake that, as they described pointed to a huge ammount of the only resourse that gave their transportation power to move forward. There they located the ship. However it looked like it was landed here in a hurry. As the Strangerran up to the door, from his boat he activated the openning mechanism with his hand. The unit waited paitently, the proffessor came out with a man not one minute later to have a smoke. From what the unit gathred, the man has dropped of the container as aggreed, burried it to make it hidden from view. The Stranger congratulated him and sighed saying that the secret is now safe.

At that same time the unit leader noticed another ship on his radar. The Stranger told his pilot to take his boat, and keep the secret only to his knowledge, since "they" were only after him and this ship. The pilot did as he was told and dissapeared into the night, heading north. While the unit prepared for an attack, not knowing what was coming.

The ship landed between the unit and the professor, it was tiny, only big enough for 20-30 people at the most. The unit consisted of 49 and the captain. The hull opened and 30 drones marched out, one notices the Army unit and opened fire. The unit fired back, the battle lasted for 15minutes, and every last Special Army Soldier of Unit 6 died that day. However they left 2 robots standing, which found the proffesor and killed him.

The 2 drones searched the ship, found nothing, got into theirs and left. The robot attacks have begun.

However, to the Humans, only team Six has dissapeared that day.

The trail to the treasure has been lost.

The Legend has been altered from generation to generatio, the Supply ship probably never came after the stranger arrived, but with the probe. And piloted by a computer. The stranger and his friend came afterwards and found the ship where the probe left it, and moved it to hide the treasure.

Stage #1

We need to start somewhere, Proffesor Baxton caught on to the trail, so there must be something out there. But start where? The stranger must have left clues as well, and his friend, where did he go. What could have that ship been carrying, where to start?

Lab Results-From the Body of The Stranger (It has been found)
The lab results have returned with something strange. The decayed bones contained nutrients which were alien to the body. They werent from calypso(although have been found here not so long ago) or the earth. Another weird thing is that when these nutrients were tested among other living organisms, it gave them more strength, and increased Regeneration. This means that the professor must have had nicely build body, to withstand more pressure then normal humans, and the age couldnt be told for sure.

During the molecular and atmoic study of the nutrients, one thing was detected. The compounds dont form under natural conditions. The only known method to form those are to do it forcefully with magnetic fields.

So where did we hear before about a nutrient that increased Strength. The nutrients could enter only certain monsters, and one known monster was recorded in the past. Saddly, those documents have appeared to be missing. (hint, hint).


Have fun, and pls dont spam my mailbox lol.

Remember, the places my hits will send u wont be neccarily named places. As well, the legend and the story will help out everyone.

Any comments, Opinions, Questions?

[that pyro]

wow...kinda tough..or maybe its just me at any rate +rep for the fun

[ragethecorp]

great idea for an event. looks like a lot of fun. +rep

[Richard Devil]

ty guys, the concern of mine is that, as the event goes on, the story unfolds, but i cant do that without giving out the answers for the first stage.

well not completely that is,

[Richard Devil]

Every peice of information somehow ties into the puzzule, just a note. Sometimes extra information i will say will arrive in a day, or two. Like lab results. Its not impossible without them, but its easier with them.

To make this much more interesting and real like, and to prevent a huge gap between people just starting. Plust the Stage #1 Post will be sometimes updated with extra informations, others have uncovered. (with their permision)

[rwin]

Great idea
