Welcome to MOTHER, the world’s first MMORPG in which the player is the input device. Utilizing modern technology, MOTHER allows players to use peripherals sold with the game in order to enter what some have deemed “virtual reality,” though players will soon find that it is something much more. As a new player you will shortly be required to fill out your character information before beginning the game. Before we get to that however, I shall briefly explain who I am and where exactly you are.
My name is BIG SISTER, I am an AI program created specifically to educate new players about the world in which you find yourself. As you are probably aware, you have entered the game through the neural link system (NLS), which has placed your body into a sleep-like state. In such a state, the NLS interacts with your brain allowing you to experience something in between a dream and reality, which is in fact the world of MOTHER.
MOTHER allows you to take the role of any character you can fathom and live their life in it’s entirety. Such opportunities are nearly endless within the confines of the parameters provided. A player can choose to perform quests and increase their reputation within the world, or simply sit back and enjoy the marvel that is MOTHER. As such, mother is completely open-ended in what you choose to do.
This concludes my introduction, however please feel free to inquire about any of the following terms before creating your character.[/FONT][FONT="]

Spoiler Show[FONT="]Given the nature of MOTHER, the world is constantly expanding and as such utilities such as maps are seldom accurate. MOTHER is based off of a fantasy alternate world in which technology is severely limited. Though more technology is likely to become available through the use of expansions. Given the limited level of technology, much of the terrain remains untouched by humanity.[/FONT][FONT="]
The majority of the continent upon which you will find your character, as one would expect is land that has not been spoiled by development. Apart from the four major trade cities and the many small settlements scattered around the continent, the world is split into various terrains depending on your location. The various terrains are also home to a variety of monsters and wildlife creating the constantly changing eco-system of MOTHER.
Because of the varied forms of life within the world, one must be constantly vigilant when traveling, as both animals and monster alike are free to migrate depending on the seasons, all of which are simulated within the game. More information about different locations will be provided by the guide you meet when you log in for the first time[/FONT][FONT="].[/FONT]
