Red Pill / Blue Pill Mission Launch Information

This write-up was originally released on Nifty’s

The working day is almost right here for you to select. Following months of hard operate, anticipation and preparing, Nifty’s is thrilled to launch the Crimson Tablet / Blue Pill Mission on Wednesday, January 5th. This will be the initial of a collection of missions for The Matrix Avatars and will allow for you, our community, to start out producing your very own tale. In this update we’ll share what is in store for this working experience and give a rapid update on our technique upgrades more than the past month.

How it works

Starting up on the 5th of January, all those who maintain foundation avatars get to make an essential decision: Get the blue capsule and remain in the Matrix, or take the purple pill and enterprise down the rabbit hole. That selection can be made for just about every avatar at no more cost here.

What this decision indicates for an avatar:

If you opt for the blue pill, all visible attributes for that avatar which includes clothing, facial attributes, hair and extras will continue to be the same. The only visible factor that will adjust for your avatar is the track record, of which there are three possible Digital Rain outcomes that are randomly chosen.

If you pick the crimson pill, only a couple of characteristics for that avatar will continue to be the similar, like pores and skin tone and body kind. Your avatar’s clothing and equipment will transform, when other characteristics this sort of as facial hair, hair color, haircut and facial expression may perhaps or may well not evolve dependent on our randomized choice. Equivalent to blue pill avatars, purple capsule avatars will get one particular of a few unique Electronic Rain backgrounds. It is significant to note, transitioning from a foundation avatar to red tablet avatar is primarily a “re-roll” for attributes. Any exceptional attribute that your base avatar has will probably be misplaced if you pick a red pill.

Introducing Non-Visible Characteristics

When an avatar is provided a purple or blue tablet, non-visual attributes for each avatar will be revealed as a way of bringing your avatar deeper into the Matrix universe. The key non-visual attribute classes are strength, structure, dexterity, intelligence, knowledge, and charisma, and relying on which pill an avatar is supplied, the attribute in that category will align with that choice. For example, blue capsule avatars will receive a credit history score (constitution), zen (knowledge), and social followers (charisma) — necessities of life for individuals trapped in the Matrix — while pink tablet avatars will receive non-visible attributes essential to survive unplugged from the Matrix, these types of as will (constitution), notion (intelligence), and movement (dexterity). Each individual avatar will have every non-visual attribute that correlates with their chosen pill.

Some of these attributes will have numeric values linked with them and will be a part of potential missions. There will also be attributes that will not have numeric values and will be been given by the two red and blue pilled avatars. For example, just about every avatar will unveil a “vote” attribute that will permit its holder to participate in future votes impacting the Matrix Avatars group.

We view all attributes — whether visual or non-visual, numeric or non-numeric– as representing a canvas for the creativeness of the group. We have suggestions for how these attributes can be used in the future — but we want to listen to and make on the ideas from the community as well.

To see your avatar’s non-visible attributes, merely visit the Matrix Event web page and click on an personal avatar that has been given a crimson or blue pill.
