Flynn Lives...

Welcome Programs, to the Free Grid!

a Tron-verse meme

Thanks to Kevin Flynn's sacrifice, Sam Flynn's sentimentality, Quorra's memory, and programming help from a handful of others (the younger Flynn determined not to make the same mistakes as the elder)

The Grid has been rebuilt almost from the ground up, and repopulated with some programs he wrote himself, some that were written by Encom colleagues and others still by old CalTech friends (and friends of friends at other universities and think tanks and et cetera)

Some areas are still under construction, more sparsely populated than others, but the city center is thriving, there are The Games (now much less lethal) for the competitive-minded, the End Of Line Club for the partiers and The Archives for those who want to learn (or to impart knowledge) and various other venues (art galleries, shops of every stripe, vehicle mechanics and rentals, even casinos and smaller clubs.) Also the Park and it's resident swarm of Bits, they don't bite, but they might talk you to death.

The Train will get you basically anywhere you need to know, and runs all the time, no need to worry about it being out of service just because it's late. Light cycles are another popular mode of transportation, and the City isn't so big that it can't be walked.

Outside of the City is the Outlands all rugged terrain and cracked vistas. Beyond that is the Sea of Simulation which -now clean and virus-free once more- Sam hopes will begin to spawn ISOs as it once did. Beyond that is The Portal which is the way back to the real world, the realm of the Users.

Sometimes the Portal glitches, it's a known problem, nothing serious, really, just that it occasionally pulls in Programs from other versions of the Grid, other times in the Grid's history. It's a thing, and the new arrivals are generally found within short order and filled in on what's happening. System Monitors and a network of volunteers help with that.

Your character can be a native program, a transplant, even a visiting User, that's up to you. Tag around, get to know each other, have fun and try not to make the place too buggy, nobody wants to deal with that.

She's not sure whether she's native to this Grid or not, but she can usually be found in the middle of the Bit swarm in the park, or taking them for field trips to the Archives or just riding around in circles on the train.

She can occasionally be found at the EoL, or one of the other smaller clubs, and sometimes she takes in the games.

Well okay guess he lives here now? At least he can actually talk here, that's something.

Former conscript, now just a friendly neighborhood archivist. Some of the combat programming is still lurking around in there though...

Transplanted System Monitor, but don't let the size or the expression fool you, he'll take in strays and really is a softie under it all.

Either he's one of Sam's programming friends on a tourist trip, or he's some kind of utility program, either way he's nervous but helpful.

She's the End of Line's very first waitress, the template for all the others. Either this is her home grid or she's been transplanted and fell right back in to work.

She can occasionally be found behind the bar, when there's an event or it's an otherwise unexpectedly busy night.

Absolutely one of Sam's think-tank programmer friends/acquaintances on a tourist trip. Probably not for the first time, either.
[I've not yet seen any of the new stuff, no spoilers please.]

She's a courier program, for hard copies or data packet delivery that has to be done via physical transfer, or really any other information that can't be trusted to the city message system. She knows her way around the city like she was made for it, and maybe she was.

If she's not on a job she's usually in the park or having a friendly arena match, if it's been a good day she's probably celebrating at the End of Line.

They were supposed to be one program, a counterpart to the Sirens, but they were split at the last minute into a double.

They're game trainers, their level of intensity ramping up automatically as their trainees learn and grow, but if someone asks for them to take it easy they definitely will, they do this for the fun of it, not for the competition in and of itself.

She's an ISO, and she's always wanted to compete in the Games, so she can usually be found training, or having a friendly bout, or just free-climbing buildings or even rocks in the Outlands.

She's one of the city's compilers, and she knows how to patch Users up too, she doesn't always have the best bedside manner, but she's available at all hours.

You know her, you love her, she's helped pull the place back together and is always happy to show someone around.

This one's a Rinzler who remembers he was Tron. Or maybe a Tron who remembers he was Rinzler. Either way his dip in the Sea has mostly just confused the issue.

He lurks, mostly, but not with murderous intention anymore.

Usually.

Same person, different face. Still curious, gregarious Quorra, just with the gender markers flipped.

CEO, daddy's girl, the other power behind bringing the Grid back to life. She's usually happy to show people around, and whether this is her usual Grid or not, she's going to make herself at home.

A lost User who is strangely susceptible to reprogramming. She somehow glitched in from another system.

This isn’t her first time in a digital construct, and she thinks the whole place is going to turn into a never-ending nightmare loop any minute now.

He’s just some guy who loves what you’ve done with the place.
