Editing Alpha Complex

{{Worldbuilders}} ''Note: Quelmar's Alpha Complex highly resembles the [[wikipedia:Paranoia_(role-playing_game)#Setting|stock Alpha Complex of the Paranoia RPG]], with very few alterations. For specifics on how to run Quelmar's Alpha Complex, see [[GM:Paranoia|GM: Paranoia]]'' 
[[File:Complexoutside.png|thumb|443x443px|Exterior (technically Alpha Complex 2, but they look identical)]]
'''Alpha Complex''' (or specifically '''Alpha Complex 1''') is the name of the final (of many) colonies to inhabit island [[Cof]]. [[File:Citypan0001.png|thumb|442x442px|Interior]]
== History ==
<blockquote>"''Long ago we created it, and now we live under it. We follow its schedules and its rules, we watch its vidshows, and now I'm not sure who is programming who''." - [[Hat]]</blockquote>Originally known as [[The Sky Net]], Alpha Complex was born when [[Friend Computer]], a rogue and dangerous piece of code from neighboring [[Teslex]] colony, was uploaded to the Sky Net network.

== About ==
Alpha Complex is controlled by [[Friend Computer|The Computer]] (Though it is anyone's guess [[List of The Computer's Personality Chips|WHICH Computer]]) 

Everyone in the Alpha Complex has a '''Security Clearance''' which ranges from ''Infrared '''to''' Ultraviolet.''

* '''Ultraviolet Citizens''' were also known as "[[Warforged|High Programmers]]".
* Alpha Complex is clear of any communists, mutants, or traitors. This spotless reputation is thanks to the many servants of the Computer known as [[Alpha Complex#Troubleshooting|Troubleshooters]]
* Citizens of the Alpha Complex are given access to "'''PDC"'''s, the equivalent of iPhones, but obnoxiously built, like the worst version of a Blackberry PDA.
* The local police force of Alpha Complex was known as '''IntSec''' (Internal Security). Another less successful and more wild group of "law keepres" were known as [[Alpha Complex#Troubleshooting|Troubleshooters]].
* It is '''always''' year 2468 in Alpha Complex.
* Citizens were grown in vats and decanted upon rapid growth. Upon death, a clone of the dead citizen was decanted to resume the previous citizen's work in the utopia. These vats were often known as '''BornHubs'''.
* The "SWAT" team of the Alpha Complex was known as '''the Vulture Squadron.'''

== Areas of Alpha Complex ==
The Productions, Logistics, and Commissary (or PLC) was a brutally complex series of beureucratic pipelines that citizens of the complex are often required to defer to when requesting information from the Computer or from higher clearance citizens. 

The average wait for information from the PLC is 15 years. 

The Clearance Reassignment Department (Known as CRD or Creed) was in charge of demoting or promoting citizens who have to quickly undergo an radical change in lifestyle.  

Troubleshooter HQ was the area of the complex where troubleshooters would gather to receive their missions, at least at one point in time. Frequent high level overturns and firings of traitors among the troubleshooter ranks mean that the method in which Troubleshooters reported to HQ changed constantly, almost never being the same.

=== Non Sectors ===

* '''The BornHub'''
** The section of Alpha Complex dedicated to decanting and putting out new clones, the '''BornHub''' consisted of hundreds of stacked columns of prepared clones ready to have their memories uploaded and decanted to replace their dead predecessors. 
* '''The Sewers'''
** A region deep under Alpha Complex which empties out into the nearby sinking ocean. Contains at least one way to sneak out of the alpha complex. Also contains a labyrinth.
** Contains at least 1 rat.
** Contained "The Chamber of Secrets" according to Cinnabon. In fact an airtight sewage chamber that flooded and trapped and killed anyone foolish enough to step into it.
* At the far edges of Alpha Complex was an area dense with pipework, the '''Plumbing Forest''', filled with clanks and clamoring of hissing steam and groaning pipes that funnel all manner of gases and liquids around the city.
* '''The Valley of Obsolescence'''
** A junkyard created by Allied Master Computer after he deemed all transport (and numerous other parts of life in Alpha Complex) inefficient. Took up several former sectors, and was full to the brim of endless junk and remnants of what was deemed the "inefficient" prior version of Alpha Complex run by Friend Computer.
* '''The Museum of Famous Form'''
** A Museum in an Ultraviolet District, the Museum of famous forms held a number of interesting and old materials (including a Warforged Titan) but most importantly held a massive, 5 story tall diagram containing the circuit schematics of [[Friend Computer]].
** Like most UV areas, there was a UV-Interfacing booth used by High Programmers to manipulate and rule over Alpha Complex.
*'''The UnderComplex'''
**The place where the most volatile and dangerous secrets, and some of the greatest treasures, of Alpha Complex are stored. 
**The UnderComplex had an advanced security system to prevent access known as "AI Dungeon", where users needed to slay the "Naturally Speaking Dragon" in a system that looked remarkably like [https://foundryvtt.com/ Foundry]. 
**The massive vault doors of the UnderComplex had been vandalized to instead read "[[The Underdungeon|The UnderDungeon]]" 
**There were 7 chambers in the UnderComplex
***Elemental Chamber (with a picture of [[Crown of Empyrosis]] on it) 
***Chamber of Suspicious Pillars and Arches
***Chamber of Needless Exposition of Alpha Complex and the greater Quelmar Realm
****Contained Soda and Popcorn and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDNTJID4ntw THIS VIDEO]

***Chamber containing exactly one (1) Zombie Tarrasque
***Reanimation Chamber
***[[⮞Get Submodule|Get Submodule]]
****A chamber containing [[James the Beholder]], creator of the Get Submodule program.
**There was also a "Comedic Chase Sequence" button located in the UnderComplex which made all the doors lead to each other, and kicked off a Scooby-Doo like hallway chase sequence.

== Troubleshooting ==
<blockquote>''"Troubleshooting is like volunteer firefighting, just not voluntary and with more firefights"''</blockquote>Troubleshooting was the prestigious job done by the most loyal workers of [[Friend Computer]], whose job was to search out everyone who was a commie, a mutant, or a traitor. 

"Mike-U-5" was the first Trouble Shooter according to the large statues and plaques built in his honor.

** "Shake Shake Shake, Squeeze Squeeze" is the secret handshake of this society. 
* The Sierra Club
** A Secret Society all about the mysterious "Outside" which is rumored to exist if one were to escape or flee from Alpha Complex. A strange world with trees and grasses and animals and all manner of natural things.
