Roblox

Roblox is a figure not many know about. He’s the platform itself- the one who created the Admins, presumably, and one who used to be much more of a bright and active figure in robloxia’s history. Why he’s become this cold, almost ghostly figure is unknown- it happened far before John’s apocalypse.

Roblox is unable to effect much- any “big changes” he attempts to make are seemingly undone. All he can do is sit and watch from his burned out office, occasionally appear to speak to people, or hold some in a sort of “stasis” for a while.

One would think he’d side with his Admins, try to help them survive the apocalypse and restore order… but Roblox seems indifferent. He’s spoken with both his admins and John, and be it from the rot the Exploit has forced upon him or his own volition, he is entirely uncaring as to who wins. Or mostly uncaring, anyways- he does care for his admins in some… limited capacity.

No matter who comes out on top, if Roblox falls to the exploit or pieces itself back together, He know’s he’ll win. He’ll have another set of Admins, new or old, who will have no choice but to carry out his will.

{he/him, “it” when referring to the platform may also describe him} {NPC}

{Now, met by the world it found itself in, Player stood on a spawnpoint dripping with exploited code. The poor thing was going to be so confused by this place- but luckily, there existed a machine practically built for introductions!}

-Ooo o h! Oh, h hi!!

{Studio, who was sitting at some sort of pop-up stand, roused from what looked to be sleep. Before Player knew it, the robot was right up in it’s face!}

W w wel elcome to the s a afehaven! I’m Lua, but ut all my friend ds call me Lou!

…

d doont call me t that. I’m Studio! N nice to meet y you! {The glitching of its voice made it hard to tell exactly what it said, but either way, it extended a hand for a handshake greeting.}

I I’ll show y you around th this pla aace- once you T T eell mee who you are re!

{it is met only by ROBLOX- maybe for a moment it saw the Others, but before the PLAYER knew anything, something else had dragged it aside.} {He just stared at it for a bit, blank expressioned at a desk in the middle of Nothing. His head tilted.}

Are you lost?

{A beat of silence, filled by fingers tapping on the desk.}

In my current state, I can’t do much to stop you from interacting with this place. Just…

{he squinted,}

Do me a favor. Try not to break too much. I’m not sure what would happen if I attempted to intervene… but im sure it wouldn’t be pretty. I’ll be watching.

{…that was weird! But hey, now player’s back at Spawn- that’s probably fine!}

{he didn’t even answer player’s question… rude…}

[fallencrossroads]

{Guest just continued on up the stairs. Impatient, maybe. Builder nodded,}

Seems like yer tour guide’ll leave ya behind if you don’t.

{Indeed, Guest disappeared up the top of the hill. With only a moment of deliberation, a little blue shiny head poked over the top of the hill. Its emotion expression shifted from a shocked “:0” to a very happy “^_^”, and it made a large cartoonish wave as if to usher the two to the top. Guest poked their head over a few moments later, with a lingering suspicious expression.}

HHA A AII II!

{it seemed Studio couldn’t contain itself, shouting down to the two below with a glitchy voice.}

{apologies for slacking on this im a busy moo!}

(★ hi previously mentioned character stuff. yes fun and playing is legal but my brain gaslights me)

“...Icy?” Mash woke up, shaking their friend awake. “Icy- Icy I think the cats messed with the bloxxy teleporter.”

“Whuh...?” Icy woke up and looked around. “...yeah.”

“Yeah- hey you two!! Get back here-!” Mashed yelled and ran after Ecanem (black kitty) and Snoey (white kitty), followed by Icy.

In turn, that just led them to two other cats after who knows how much walking - a pink one and a blue one. They seemed to get along with theirs just fine.

“Is anybody here besides the cats?”

“Hopefully... hello?? Hello??! Is anybody here-??!”

{Classic was the first to arrive, leaning out of the door to their room and looking down at the cats and then back at the two.} {their face barely shifted to look of tired surprise, maybe they’d just woken up? Either way, they didn’t seem too put off. After a beat of thinking, a bit of exploit code arched up above their head, almost like a chatbox.}

[are you the two who keep sending me cats?]

{they motioned back towards the pink and blue cats, and almost seemed ready to “say” something else, before sudden footsteps down the hall had them frantically hiding their little burst of exploit} {Builder rounded the corner just in time to not see it, uncharacteristically excited.}

-somebody say Bloxy? I-

{he screeched to a halt at the sign of two new arrives, face steeling, and he crept forward much more cautious}

I, ah, sorry- y’two alright? New folks usually spawn in with Lua, I didn’t expect to see ya here. Y’arent hurt, are you?

{seems he was more worried about the new “survivors” than whatever situation was brewing with the cats- what a nice guy :)}

{Classic was making a face at him, one he didn’t seem to pick up on.}

{after months of struggling with a “lost cause”, John finally manages to get through to his most unwilling subject}

[fallencrossroads]

{Builder nodded. It seemed like a bit of a non-answer to him, but at least he got something of an idea- a teleporter would help survive, wouldn’t it? And moving constantly, too. It was how he and Shed survived for a long time on their own, at least.}

I see. Part of another group, then? We’ll see if we can help you find your way back home- I understand not sticking ‘round here if you’ve got folks to get back to.

{He started making his way up the stairs. They were carved well, wide enough to not feel precarious despite the drop below.}

I might be able to help with making ya a new- err- “Bloxxy teleporter”… but im more about the sheetmetal side of things. If ya wanna get a real electronics expert, I’d talk to Vee. Either way, im sure Studio can get some sorta help for ya, be it locating the thing or finding somebody to help make a new one for ya.

{Builder leaned against the grassy side of the hill, about half way up the steps.}

it should be just up there, I don’t see much point in having to follow. Guest, you’ll make sure they find their way alright, won’cha?

{Guest jumped at being addressed- clearly builder had seen them slowly trailing behind. They steeled their expression and gave a hasty nod before pushing through to the front of the group.} {There goes plan A… maybe Studio could give them a way out?}

Good luck, kiddos. I’m here if ya need anything.

Rose Quartz

Rose is a masterful sword fighter, chosen by Shedletsky himself to wield the Illumina. Where many SWORD wielders lose their SFOTH swords in combat, she has managed to keep a hold of her weapon since she was first chosen to wield it. She considers it her life’s mission to keep it safe!

however, the Illumina is one of the most powerful SWORDs- it carries with it the unique ability to “purify” exploit code. While traditionally its main use was revealing hidden people, as exploit became more common, she realized this ability to nullify the effects of Exploit and worked with the admins to ban hackers often.

John saw this and took her by surprise when the apocalypse first started- he couldn’t kill her with exploit outright, and getting too close to her hurt and burned his own code, so he settled for locking her away deep underground beneath his home base at the Crossroads.

c00lkidd is the only other killer who knows her location, being assigned to feed her and make sure she doesn’t escape. Seems like he spilled the beans to his buddy Crosscut, though, as he sometimes visits her.

despite being caged, Rose maintains a hope that burns bright in her chest! She refuses to be smothered by the hackers, and though she’s lost much of her spark and ability to fight, she hasn’t sunken fully into a pit of hopelessness. Though the experience has scarred her deeply, she doesn’t outright seek revenge, and instead sees the killers as they are- People, beneath their hostile exteriors. Namely, she’s gotten close to c00l, who she sees as a misguided kid. She doesn’t know crosscut well, as he isn’t very talkative, but sees how distraught he is. She also has an understanding of 1x4’s true nature with how much c00l talks about and respects him.

during the events of Vee’s milestones in FC, she would be freed by Vee and the Illumina passed on to her. As of this blog, though, she is still imprisoned. After being freed, Vee and Rose grow very close, with Rose using the crystals growing out of her due to underuse of her SWORD to charge Vee via a piezoelectric reaction.

Good to meet ya two, then. I already introduced me an’ Guest, but I’ll make sure to introduce any new folks we meet too.

{Builder walked with a hand running against the stone wall. Every once in a while, they’d pass a well constructed set of wooden beams- ones which Builder seemed to admire as they passed}

So, tell me about your travels here. Ah, where you were before this whole apocalypse, and how’d ya get here- I figure we can walk and talk a bit, get to know the new arrivals, that sort of stuff.

…and uh, maybe about yer cats, too?

{Guest walked alongside them with crossed arms, stopping only to lift Pro up. They are pretty special cats, huh? It seemed like Pro had some venom, and… they didn’t know what the others did, but assumedly something like that.}

{what place- world? Did these two travelers come from that could produce such odd creatures? Guest loved pro and cheesecake, of course, but… maybe more wanderers and cats wasn’t a Good thing. They already struggled to feed everyone as is.} {Slowly, guest drifted to the back of the group. They’d find a way to break off, but not yet.}

{The group arrived at the cave opening, but instead of light pouring down to meet them, the sky was cloaked in a swirling gray fog. Down below, in a valley cut by two rivers, some people stirred and meandered about- to their left was a set of wide stone stairs carved into the side of this hill, which Builder seemed keen to take. Presumably, Spawn was at the top.}

Sorry for the walk. Hopefully it’s not too taxing.

{Builder raised at who he presumed to be “Icy”, but gave a respectful nod}

Yeah, showing ya to Studio would be a good idea. It’s not far to Spawn, and we can introduce ourselves a bit better along the way. You-

{he nodded to icy,}

-are Icy, right? It’s good to meet new friendly faces. Seems Guest’s cats like y’two, so that’s a good vote of confidence.

{Despite the friendlier tone, Builder still didn’t smile. Instead, he tugged Classic along- Classic, who was trying to shuffle away actively.}

c’mon, just this way- im sure Guest’s got some sneaky way to get there faster, but we’d best stick to the usual path.

{Guest seemed incredulous. They COULDN’T be the only one seeing how weird this is, right?? They NEEDED to go run off, and they knew just who to find to sort this out. But… builder wants them to Socialize…}

{Builder started walking down the stone hall towards a cave entrance, expecting the rest to follow. He seemed confident}

{Builder’s look morphed to that of raw confusion, between the odd activities the two were up to and the strangely dismissive way they spoke} {at least he could answer their questions!}

I… im Builderman, one of the admins of Roblox. Y’dont recognize me?

{Almost everyone seemed to know him right away, and half seemed to have a bone to pick with him too. It was a little odd to not have somebody act like that.}

that’s, uh, Guest. Should probably mention that too.

{He nudged classic, who gave a half-hearted wave.}

and, uhm… this is the safehaven. Some beta tester ~experience~ that’s survived John’s attempts to destroy everything.

…sorry. Studio’s better at this sorta stuff. I could still try to show ya around? Yer in a cave right now, we cared out rooms here, so it’s probably not the best intro locale.

{Guest squinted and looked between Builder and the two. Were they seriously getting roped into a tour? They obviously knew Something was up with these two, but apparently builder was just glossing over it.}

#### OFF, DISEMBODIED VOICE!

{drosera, still face down on the floor, grumbles before somehow hunching even more into herself}

[fallencrossroads]

T.V.

Affectionately referred to as “Vee”, she is a robot created by some unknown company- the only surviving employee, Jaya, being one of the main people behind her creation. While the intent behind creating her is a closely guarded secret, it is known that all of her emotions are “locked”- while this makes her a fearless and formidable technician and sentinel in chases, it’s left her knowing that she is forever an “other”

while she isn’t stared at like ex-hackers, she isn’t welcomed. Many are kind to her, of course, but always with the knowledge that she’s not Robloxian- even among robotic peers like Lua, her coldness sets her apart from the rest. Despite this, she is often known to be able to quip and make harsh remarks to others, which lends her some ability to mesh with the rest even if she feels nothing about it. She also seems to have some impossibilities with the lack of emotions- namely, she is almost Afraid of things tampering with her code, and seems to Enjoy music.

She was once close friends with Noob, him being one of very few people who treated her like a person and didn’t seem to mind the emotionlessness one bit. She’s stuck alongside the quintet even with his absence, though her bonds with the rest aren’t quite as close as with Noob. Despite the company wanting to shut her down, she remains very close with Jaya, who also was one of the few who treated her as a person. As of the time of this blog, she has not met Rose yet, but when they do the two grow VERY close as vee does unlock her emotions and she saves rose (more on that when I draw her). She dislikes C00lkidd, who sees her as a fun thing to tamper with, and seems to be close with ???- moof’s shadow was somehow able to enter her code to talk, like a virus, and despite her fears on the subject the two chat often and have become friends. Vee doesn’t know ??? Is connected to moof, considering them a nervous piece of sentient code like herself.

after freeing Rose, Vee goes on to wield the Illumina.

{she/her} {robotic}

note; this character was created by a friend and collaborator way before veeronica ever existed in forsaken- apologies for any similarities! As well, her lore is subject to change, as she is a character made in collaboration ^_^

{Doombringer tossed the popsicle into his furnace chest instantly, and began parading around, as if this was the best moment of his life}

CMON! ONE OF YOU HACKERS HAS GOT TO HAVE SOME ENERGY!

{with John sealed in his office pointing four fans at himself, the rest of the killers were left defenseless to the onslaught of the ex-admin. Drosera, laying face down on the floor of one half-destroyed crossroads bridge, hucked an empty can of soda at his face. Doom didn’t even react.}

#### OFF, dude! Read the ROOM!

{her planty vines almost seemed partially wilted at the ends, and instead of even drinking the soda, she just seemed to have been pouring it onto her planted bits. Apparently, 30c is not the temperature range she’s meant to grow in}

SHEESH, KILLJOY! YOU’RE ALWAYS RARING TO GO!

Not when im BOILING to death!

hey doombringer how are ya

FEELIN’ GOOD!

{Doom’s voice boomed, and a small puff of smoke came out of the big furnace in his chest as a let out a loud laugh. The firebrand, slung across his back, was swiftly swung in front of him}

ITS GOOD TO GET THIS THING BACK IN ACTION, EVEN IF I GOTTA WORK WITH FILTHY HACKERS TO DO IT! ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE IVE HAD A GOOD SWORD FIGHT, Y’KNOW!

PLUS, LITTLE PWNR’S ALL GROWN UP NOW! I NEVER THOUGHT I’D SEE THE DAY I COULD SPAR WITH FAMILY!

{Doom grinned, boisterous as ever! It’s hard to imagine how he could be happy about the apocalypse, but it’s hard to imagine somebody with his morals as a killer too. It’s a wonder how he ended up here…}

The Last Spawnpoint

In Fallen Crossroads, only one spawnpoint remains active- its half-broken, but remains one of the last hopes of survivors. So… what’s the deal with that?

the spawn point is located in the Safehaven, a world buried deep within the code of Roblox Studio itself. The only reason this spawnpoint remains active at all is how deep in the file structure it is- all others were wiped out.

by who? Well, c00lkidd! In order to prove his loyalty to John, c00l used his GUI to completely disable Respawn. Except, of course, the final one- in many ways the first spawnpoint, it was a template used to create other respawn points.

It’s still partially affected, of course- it’s dripping with exploit code. What does that mean for the survivors? If they’re too far away from the spawnpoint they wont be able to use it, and additionally, if they’re in a real emotional slump or depressive state, they lack the willpower to respawn too. Sometimes, beyond that, the spawnpoint just “bugs out” and doesn’t work at all. It’s a lifeline, but a fragile one- it can’t be relied on forever.

Lua spends most of its time tending to the last spawnpoint, cleaning it off and greeting any survivors just stumbling upon it for the first time. This is where the story begins!
