FAQ

Here are some answers to some questions that have come up so far. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to contact us, either on plurk or by leaving a comment here!

What color is the energon on this Cybertron? Is it pink or blue?
It's green.

How do canon updates work in this game?
The short answer is: however is most convenient! The long answer is that there are a couple of options for canon updating at Robot Hell. If it's a question of just catching a character up on memories/knowledge of events in their canon, you can have them do the good ol' falling into a coma until they wake up and remember (however long is your choice), or, for the more expedient solution, they can just experience it all in a dream one night. If the nature of your canon update requires some kind of physical change be effected to your character, they can mysteriously disappear into the Cybertronian wilderness for a bit (also in a coma, or otherwise they simply don't remember) and when they come to, suddenly, bam, canon updated body. If you want to have your character disappear into the Cybertronian wilderness for a plain old regular canon update that's cool too. We endorse any and all disappearances into the vast wilderness.

How far can characters travel from the city? Can they leave the planet?
There are no operable long-range transport vehicles available in the area, and any that remain are well beyond repair. Characters can venture outside the city into the surrounding wilderness, but it's pretty vast and the nearest former settlement is quite far. However, regardless of how far and fast your character is capable of traveling, they won't get more than a day or so's walk (or drive) from the city before the strange pull urging them to return to the city becomes too strong to withstand. Even characters who are capable of space travel on their own will not be able to get so far as leaving the planet's atmosphere before they are compelled to return to the city.

Can my character be exempt from the mysterious pull toward the city?
Nope! Everyone's affected.
