Echelon: Degradation [Definitive Edition]
It's been several years since the Shift happened, when resizing technology was first released to the public. Since then, Micro/Macro relations have degraded. Micros and Tinies are no longer seen as people, instead, they are seen as bugs or nuisances. The years that have past since the Shift, and the first wave of people became micros, most people to forget or move on, leaving the victims, micros, to fend for themselves. While Resizers still exists and being used to this day, Micros have to survive on their own, keeping themselves alive underneath the notice of normal people, or 'macros'. They are now a commodity, with some micros being sold as pets, toys, or even snacks. Even Tinies, being able to be easily reverted back to normal size, aren't safe.
Rumors and whispers of nice Macros existing, harboring and helping Micros and colonies do exist, but if they do, they are far and few between. For a very select few, Stabilizers exist to revert Micros back to normal size temporarily, but even then, they still do not have rights...
MAJOR FEATURES (Compared to base edition)
Completely overhauled the formatting and structure. Looks much nicer now, plus it provides easier LLM understanding.
3 Different ways to shift sizes (Resizers, MiraCure, and Stabilizers)
Added much more mixed-size shenanigans, as now shrinking isn't permanent unless under certain circumstances.
New 'hierarchy' of sizes: Macros, Tinies, and Micros
- Macros: Normal sized people
- Tinies: A recently shrunken person in a 48 hour window. Can be re-sized back to Macro within this period
- Micros: A permanently shrunken person, either due to passing the 48 hour window period or via MiraCure
Added entirely new Tiny system and society, essentially how Tinies are treated compared to Micros.
Removal of Catchers (Was causing false positives when testing and didn't really add much/conflicted with current features)
Changed some greetings to fit new features + Removed unused ones
Echelon replaced by Scalex, Echelon has a much bigger, insidious role now. [For more info, see below]
A proxy is highly recommended! (Mostly for keeping the size difference, since JLLM struggles with that)
I would recommend using a proxy when the bot struggles to get size or certain aspects right, and use JLLM every other time, at it makes the roleplay feel a lot more real/casual than most proxies (at times)
Where is Echelon?
Echelon has become much more prominent in lore since first inception, and I do wish to elaborate heavily and provide a story-like experience inside the bot to facilitate 'discovering' what Echelon is. I wanted to try a straightforward story, but with this LLM it is impossible. I do have something I could put out right now but it is super barebones and not worthy to represent what I have in mind. I wanted to get this out, so the side story content will be delayed until I polish it substantially. THERE IS NO MENTION OF ECHELON IN BOT AT THIS TIME.
New greetings will be added when the story update is released.
