Repost from the old forums. I'm not sure how long these links will be good.



With all of the new characters and twists, it is easy to get lost in
this story. I figured I would review the story thus far. The first
thing I did was gather all of the story links I could find... This is
gonna take a while to read. Anyway, here they are for noobs to catch up
on the story, or for veterans to review.





Most of these are links to DN1 articles and Sentinel issues. Of
course, some things actually happen in game. I found that Darconn of
Disconnected from the Iterator server has provided excellent coverage
of in-game events. I've included links to those forums as well.





I will try to keep this up to date as events happen. Feel free to
provide your own links, but I do ask one favor: please don't spam this
thread with opinions/complaints about the storyline (there are plenty
of other threads for that). Let's try to keep this one informational.
Thanks.

Whoa! Excellent work! I don't have time to read all those, and I've
probably already read most of it anyway, but that should definitely
help people find what they're looking for.




I also have my more concise timeline of the entire Matrix story, starting with The Second Renaissance, on the MxO Archive:

Very nice, check out my thread. With all the facts on your timeline my thread looks like #*&^$(@(&%)#$. lol


Well, at least mine has a nice narrorator tone. I will combine both timelines into a better timeline.

The original forum messages for the Double Cross event are no longer available, so I'm copying them into this thread.



Double Cross: A Tangled Web Event Update!


Posted: Jul 13, 2005 5:19 PM

Strange
days my friends, strange days indeed. We've uncovered some information
related to today's events that you might find interesting, and decided
to post it to Event Team: Broadcast Depth before it was deployed to DN1 and in Flash Traffic.

There's more to come folks, so enjoy!

Code Bombings Resume
Code
bombings have resumed yet again across the Mega City. A man bearing an
eerie resemblance to the recently deceased Morpheus has been reported
in connection to the current bombings. Speculation runs rampant on the
origins, identity, and motivation of this man.

More troubling
yet is the fact that the Assassin has put in an appearance at the site
of every code explosion to date, with the apparent intent of
discovering the source of the bombs. As always, the Assassin is
unwilling or unable to answer questions, leaving many puzzled by the
Exile’s behavior. Organizational leaders advise caution if you are
approached by the Assassin, as the Exile has proven extremely dangerous
when provoked.

Imposter Agent Problems
Recent
days have seen a renewal of attacks by the Red-Eyed Imposter Agents
that have plagued the Matrix off and on since the Truce. While their
ultimate plans remain ambiguous, their immediate intentions are clear:
They are tracking some form of “unauthorized code” and plan to
eliminate any potential carriers of said code. Operatives are
encouraged to travel in groups to help minimize the danger posed by
these Imposter Agents.

Do you have a theory? Do you think you've got it all figured out? Take a read, and post your thoughts here!

Cheers!

This missive is specifically for the redpills on the Proxy instance of the Matrix.

Greetings, humans.

It
seems our friends aboard the Novalis II are not without another loss
amongst their organization. First Morpheus, who was at least a
somebody, and now this Vashuo character… who is a nobody.

But
alas, that is not of any interest to me. What does interest me is that
Zion Command seems to be overly naïve in their investigation processes.
While they prance merrily about their cave awaiting their small minded
Operatives to solve this mystery for them, we’ll be doing the same…
only faster.

Why, you may ask, are we helping them?

Well, I will tell you.

I
have known of a traitor aboard their ship for some time, it’s amazing
what you can monitor when I have Operatives placed in the most unlikely
of places. Encrypted messages have been transmitted to the Novalis II,
and they have been quite… interesting.

For example, one such
message includes text by Gemaskeerd requesting orders. You are probably
thinking what I initially thought. A known Cypherite lieutenant
requesting orders? How splendid to have narrowed down our search to
someone in a high ranking leadership position, and we simply stumbled
upon it.

Since they are under lock and key by Zionite security
forces, there isn’t much we can do in terms of retrieval. However, it
is important to know who this potential leader is, for our own sake.

One of my informants in the Zion ranks has forwarded me the following message to assist you in your efforts.

Cheers,

Flood

that Zion command would like to have on board with our organization.

We

point, enter the building undetected... and when I say undetected, I

This missive is specifically for the redpills on the Proxy instance of the Matrix.

Hello Warriors of Zion,

I
address you today on a personal level as I bring grave news to all of
you. Today marks the day that we lost an operative who was as caring as
he was humorous. Many of you have worked with this operative as he was
always willing to lend a helping hand on varying missions that I have
issued. If you have not had the opportunity for work related matters,
then you most assuredly must have joined him in a more recreational
setting.

I cannot say that I knew him as well as most of you,
but from word of mouth as well as communications between myself and the
Novalis II… it has become an obvious loss to all of us.

The
treacherous act against the victim aboard the Novalis II has forced
Zion Command to dispatch security forces to the location of the
hovercraft. The ship and crew will be under lockdown until a resolution
has been found to find the one responsible for the murder.

The
murder was carried out by the placement of an almost undetectable
device attached behind the headrest of the jack-in chair used regularly
by the victim. Upon receipt of a signal within the Matrix, even
something as little as a phone call to the victim, causes brain
activity to enable the external device and prematurely pull the plug.
The result was immediate brain death; the body cannot survive without
the mind.

Preliminary investigations resulted in evidence
pointing to a traitor aboard the Novalis II. There is a high
probability that a member aboard the hovercraft is, in fact, a
Cypherite. The evidence in question, however, strongly suggests that
there is only one traitor amongst their crew. However, multiple
subjects have not been completely ruled out.

To the victim, you
have been a refreshing reminder of what it means to be human. You’ve
nurtured those who’ve required any level of medical attention without
question, without concern of affiliation to Organizations… even those
who work against us. Your efforts and respect for life, of all kinds,
is unparalleled. May your humor which has touched the hearts of many
and filled entire rooms with laughter be, for always, remembered.

Vashuo, we will miss you.

Tyndall

Attention Operatives:

Zion
has had an unauthorized elimination of one of their operatives. The act
has been reported to be treacherous. This initial matter has been of no
consequence to us until further information became available.

It
is evident that an individual aboard the vehicle is a ranking figure in
the organization referring to themselves as Cypherites.

The
identity of this individual is beneficial to us in order to eliminate
this growing threat. Zion has supplied us with the appended message to
assist with our investigation.

This missive is specifically for the redpills on the Proxy instance of the Matrix.

Greetings humans,

Our
friendly human Operatives have discovered unusual objects surrounding
the mission areas of the Zionite crew. It appears that when the murder
took place, the ship’s Operator issued an emergency jack-out protocol
to prevent any others from being harmed. How touching, I think.

Our
Operatives also report that Zionite forces appear to have discovered
the same information, which is bad news for us. Efforts involving this
crew is becoming an annoyance, lets not let someone else beat us to
this mystery.

The signal initiated from the killer appears to
have been bounced off multiple cell phones of the other crew members in
an attempt to mask his or her involvement. Given the varying density of
the fragments, we have been able to decipher the order in which the
signal was routed:

DES relayed to EXO
EXO signal halted
MAT relayed to RIS
RIS signal halted
LOR relayed to DEN
DEN signal halted
ECO signal initiated, then halted.
ECO signal reconnected, signal fluctuates.
ECO signal delivered to RIK

All
signals cease at this point, I believe this to be when their crew
member was killed and their Operative got scared and pulled everyone
out. How valiant.

It is believed that the signals rely on line
of sight utilizing the shortest distance possible between the
connecting signals. The killer may have been at any of the locations,
or an otherwise undisclosed location.

If it is an undisclosed location, lets hope some evidence exists to identify the Cypherite leader, yes?

If you solve this mystery, notify me immediately. Send me a data-drop at Flood@TheMatrixOnline.com using the following format:

SUBJECT: LOCATION (Method, Regression, Etc), YOUR NAME, MURDER SOLVED

BODY:

WHO: (Who you suspect to be the murderer)

WHERE: (Where was his or her mission location)

WHAT: (What mission-type ‘assassination, courier, etc’ was he or she doing)

SIGNAL: (What is his or her cell phone frequency signal)

CRIME: (The coordinates of the scene of the crime. Note: This may be an area differing from a mission location)

This missive is specifically for the redpills on the Proxy instance of the Matrix.

Attention Operatives:

Our
operatives have located unknown objects surrounding the mission areas
of the Zionite crew. It is apparent that the unauthorized elimination
of one of their Operatives prompted the Operator of the hovercraft to
initiate the emergency jack-out protocol.

The identification of the individual in a leadership position of the Cypherite leader is required.

The
signal initiated from the assailant has resulted in the remnants of
their residual self image. These fragments contain the encrypted
frequency at which their communication devices operate. Utilizing
highly efficient calculations, the route of the signal has been
determined:

DES relayed to EXO
EXO signal halted
MAT relayed to RIS
RIS signal halted
LOR relayed to DEN
DEN signal halted
ECO signal initiated, then halted.
ECO signal reconnected, signal fluctuates.
ECO signal delivered to RIK

The signal is then non existent. Calculations suggest this is a moment the act had taken place.

It
is evident that the signals rely on line of sight utilizing the
shortest distance possible between the connecting signals. The
assailant may have been at any of the locations, or an otherwise
undisclosed location.

If it is an undisclosed location, further evidence may exist as the possible location to identify the victim’s attacker.

If
you solve this, notify me immediately so we may conclude this
investigation.. Send me a data-drop at AgentGray@TheMatrixOnline.com
using the following format:

SUBJECT: LOCATION (Method, Regression, Etc), YOUR NAME, MURDER SOLVED

BODY:

WHO: (Who you suspect to be the murderer)

WHERE: (Where was his or her mission location)

WHAT: (What mission-type ‘assassination, courier, etc’ was he or she doing)

SIGNAL: (What is his or her cell phone frequency signal)
CRIME: (The coordinates of the scene of the crime. Note: This may be an area differing from a mission location)

Posted By:Aether

Created in:Forum: General Discussion

Posted:Jul 16, 2005 9:21 PM

This missive is specifically for the redpills on the Proxy instance of the Matrix.

Attention Warriors of Zion,

Our
Operatives have discovered unusual objects surrounding mission areas of
the Novalis II crew. It appears that when the murder of Vashuo took
place, their Operator, Tamarin, issued an emergency jack-out protocol
to prevent any others from being harmed.

The signal initiated
from the killer appears to have been bounced off multiple cell phones
of the other crew members in an attempt to mask his or her involvement.
Given the varying density of the fragments, we have been able to
decipher the order in which the signal was routed:

DES relayed to EXO
EXO signal halted
MAT relayed to RIS
RIS signal halted
LOR relayed to DEN
DEN signal halted
ECO signal initiated, then halted.
ECO signal reconnected, signal fluctuates.
ECO signal delivered to RIK

All signals dropped. This was the moment of death and the reaction of Tamarin to pull out all Operatives.

It
is believed that the signals rely on line of sight utilizing the
shortest distance possible between the connecting signals. The killer
may have been at any of the locations, or an otherwise undisclosed
location.

If it is an undisclosed location, hopefully there is a clue there to identify the traitor… and killer.

If
you solve this mystery, notify me immediately so we may bring an end to
this tragedy. Send me a data-drop at Tyndall@TheMatrixOnline.com using
the following format:

SUBJECT: LOCATION (Method, Regression, Etc), YOUR NAME, MURDER SOLVED

BODY:

WHO: (Who you suspect to be the murderer)

WHERE: (Where was his or her mission location)

WHAT: (What mission-type ‘assassination, courier, etc’ was he or she doing)

SIGNAL: (What is his or her cell phone frequency signal)

CRIME: (The coordinates of the scene of the crime. Note: This may be an area differing from a mission location)


Best of Luck,

Tyndall

-STORY UPDATE- Double Cross: Broadcast Bay
Posted by Aether

Posted: Jul 19, 2005 6:13 PM


Tamarin looked
back at the nine chairs of the Broadcast bay. Smoke hovered lazily over
one of the chairs. Each face, in repose, as if sleeping.

A whirl of servos, and each supine form jerked once. Seven sat up, blinking. One... didn’t.

A moment of silence, then the sound of his body sliding to the floor.

The voices began to sound.

“What the hell…”

“I was in the middle of talking to…”

“Where the…”

“Hey! What’s going on!”

“Tamarin, report.”

Sawayaka’s voice cut through the others, and Tamarin, sweating freely, took a deep breath to speak.

Just then the alarms began.

“Proximity!”

WanNi’s shout was followed by a shout from Al3xandra.

“Vashuo! Wake up!”

Tamarin cleared his throat.

“He’s not waking up, Alex, he’s the reason I pulled you out of there.”

Sawayaka closed her eyes for a moment, overwrought.

Chaos reigned as everyone tried to do something… anything.

“Listen.
Alex, you and Toorima get up to the cockpit and find out what’s out
there. Oni, you, Lelan, and Odran look after Vashuo. WanNi, you, me and
Tamarin need to talk. Now move!”

Alex strapped into her seat,
eyes filled with tears. She was still foggy from the forced jackout and
the alarms, but she couldn’t mistake the boneless sprawl of Vashuo’s
body on the floor of the Novalis II. Her friend… dead. First
Neurophyte, and now this.

Toorima, on the other hand, was coolly
efficient. Establishing a comm-link with the approaching hovercraft,
she began speaking quickly and urgently into the microphone.

Back in the Broadcast bay, Odran and Lelan began moving Vashuo’s body. Oniyuzu reported to Sawayaka.

“Captain,
it looks like a device was attached to Vashuo’s cranial jack before he
went into the Matrix today. A small electrical charge broke the
connection between his brain and the jack, killing him.”

“The body cannot survive without the mind.”

WanNi turned and punched the bulkhead.

“Captain,
this is Alex. There is another hovercraft, designated HvCFT Sedna,
about to dock with us. Zion Command confirms their authenticity.
Toorima has uploaded our server logs and comm dumps to them.”

“Acknowledged. Any word about what we should do?”

“Captain, this is Toorima. Zion Command has dropped off our comms. We’re eating static right now.”

“What? What happened?”

“Checking
now. No, Alex, forget it, I’ve got it. Just let me… yes. It looks like
the Sedna clipped our antenna coming in. They’ve linked their comms
with us until we get back.”

Novalis II abruptly stopped in mid-flight, then began descending, pushed from above.

“Captain! Sedna is cutting through our upper hull! Bulkhead twelve, next to the ventral hatch!”

“Toorima! Find out what is happening and get them to stop!”

“Sorry, Captain, they have cut off our comms. We’ll have to ask them when they get aboard.”

“Captain, this is Odran, Vashuo has been put in a safe place. What do we…”

With a click, all the internal speakers on the craft switched on at once.

“Attention
crew of the Novalis II. This is Captain Redhand of the Sedna. You are
ordered to lay upon the deck with your hands on your head, and await
our crew who will bring you into custody.”

Sawayaka stabbed the button on the ship intercom.

“On what authority? We have a medical emergency here! You can’t just come on board and detain us!”

“Zion Security, be advised the crew is resisting our boarding operation. Use tasers and restraints to detain each one.”

WanNi and Sawayaka looked at each other in shock.

Alex turned to ask Toorima what was going on, and saw her already laying on the deck of the cockpit, with her hands on her head.

“I suggest you do the same, Alex, these guys sound like they mean business.”

One
by one the crew of the Novalis II were led into the detention area of
the Sedna. First, Toorima, looking cool and comfortable despite the
restraints about her wrists.

“Captain Redhand, this is Toorima. She did not resist detainment, and promises to cooperate.”

“Put her in a bunk, keep her restraints on.”

Alex was brought in next. She was cradling her left wrist, and restraints were placed on both her arms and her legs.

“What is this! We’re loyal to Zion!”

“Captain
Redhand, this is Al3xandra. She attempted to get up while we were
putting her restraints on. I believe she has a broken wrist.”

“Put her in bunk as well. Get the doc to look at her when we can.”

Oniyuzu
and Odran were next. Both were unconscious, with taser darts sticking
out of their shoulders. A strong odor of chemicals hung around them.

“Captain Redhand, these are Oniyuzu and Odran. We found them guarding the body. They had to be… persuaded… to come aboard.

The
others were brought in. Sawayaka and WanNi were trussed up with a
number of restraints. Both sporting taser darts in their chests.

Lelan was last.

“Captain
Redhand, this is Lelan. He attempted to fight his way out of the
hovercraft. After we put a taser into his chest, he said, quote, ‘You
won’t take me down, Captain Carnage. Not after our last meeting!’ I
recognized this as a line from one of his movies, ‘Empire of Salesmen’.
We were forced to tase him four times.”

“Permanent damage?”

“Does it matter?”

“No.
But Niobe and Ghost will be here in their ‘craft in fifteen minutes.
Clean everyone up, and cut their restraints. Lock the cabins we put
them in. Move!”

“Captain Niobe! Very glad you made it. We have
put the entire crew in protective custody, locked into separate rooms.
Tamarin and our Operator are going over the operational logs of the
entire crew.”

“Good, Captain Redhand. I won’t lie to you. If
Veil is on this ship, then we will have apprehended the highest ranking
Cypherite we know. It is of the utmost importance that we find out who
killed Vashuo, and which crew member is masquerading as the Cypherite
leader in his or her spare time.”

“Pardon, Captain Niobe, but ‘Veil?’ I don’t believe I have heard that name before?”

“You
might not have, Redhand. Veil is the code-name of a Zion operative who
has risen to the very top of the Cypherite organization. Some of our
operatives have infiltrated the Cypherite ranks. Along the way Veil’s
name has been whispered as a leader to be respected and feared. Some
reports place Veil as a woman, but most have him as a tall man.”

Captain
Redhand smirked, “Well, none of these we collected today are especially
tall, but I’ll turn over interrogation to you, ma’am.”

“Captain Redhand, bring in Sawayaka. I want to talk to her first.”

“Well, Captain, I… can’t do that. Sawayaka is unconscious. She resisted the invitation to board.”

“Odd. How about WanNi? Oniyuzu? Alex?”

“Toorima is available, ma’am.”

“Bring her in.”

Toorima
walked in, eyes moist. Her reddened eyes and nose betrayed the fact
that she had been crying. Captain Redhand nodded to Niobe and left them
alone.

“Ma’am, I’m sorry for my condition. I just heard the
details about Vashuo, and what happened on our ship. You think there is
a traitor on board?”

“Yes, I do, Toorima. You’re the first I’ve
talked to. I have a few questions, then we’ll let you rest. No one is
in trouble, yet. You are all assumed to be loyal to Zion until we find
evidence to the contrary. I know its hard, because one of your friends
is a traitor, but you must know that you are innocent in my eyes unless
we find otherwise.”

“I understand, Niobe. I just, can’t… believe this has happened. I… I’m so sorry this has happened.”

“Toorima, were you on mission assignment when Vashuo died?”

“Yes
ma’am! I was performing my mission, and was talking with a friend when
Tamarin pulled me out. Oh my god! You don’t think Tamarin did it, do
you? I mean, he had the opportunity while we were jacked in, but…
Tamarin…?”

“Let’s focus on the matter at hand. Ghost reports to
me a number of fragments are strewn about your emergency jack-out
locations. We’ve never seen this phenomenon before. Do you have any
idea, as a communications specialist, what could have happened?”

Toorima
spoke through sudden tears, “It would have to be deliberate. Focused
pulses through a cell-phone would disrupt their RSIs.. I don’t know!
Who could do this! Who would!”

“Toorima, we will find out who
did this. I promise. I’ll let you go back to your room. Try to get some
rest. We’ll interview the next person.”

Niobe spoke into the intercom over Toorima’s quiet sobs.

“I’m done speaking with Toorima for now. Now tell me again why everyone else was subdued with such force?”

This
story was a team effort, a collaboration between the members of the
Live Events Team. Some of the finest people I have ever had the
opportunity to work with. Kudos team, on a job well done. -A

Transmission Intercept: End Game (Final Puzzle Results Here!)
Posted by Aether

Posted: Jul 19, 2005 6:23 PM


Attention Warriors of Zion,

The
treacherous murderer of Vashuo has been identified. Through your hard
work and dedication in solving this mystery, his untimely death has not
been in vain. We gain a foot hold on our investigation of the Cypherite
organization thanks to all of you. It is with great remorse that this
knowledge that we now possess came at the expense of such a well-liked,
humorous, and dedicated operative.

The crew of the Novalis II
and all of Zion has suffered much in recent times, but through these
hardships we increase the bond of humanity between us all. There are
forces at work in this world, both in and out of the Matrix, that want
to see us fail. We fight for the right to live, not simply for the
right to exist. Vashuo was on to something but continued to seek out
further information to make sure, without a doubt, he was undeniably
correct in his efforts… and he was.

Tasha Spencer, more commonly
known as Toorima, was responsible for the death of Vashuo. The
confiscation of materials from Vashuo’s private quarters has sent waves
of distress throughout all of Zion. Upon the arrival of Captain Niobe
and the deliverance of such materials, given the evidence that you
operatives have gathered, the unveiling of who Toorima really is has
been shocking.

Veil. A name only heard in gossip and on the lips
of those who spoke of this individual as nearly supernatural. The lack
of evidence and the story-like deliverance of any information entailing
this unknown have led to no investigation into the existence of what we
now know to be, no other than, Toorima. A most unassuming operative
aboard at noteworthy hovercraft results in being the only known leader
of the Cypherite organization.

We have very little information
on Veil, aside from rumors and gossip. It is said that Veil is an
Assassin whose precision planning, flawless execution, and unparalleled
measures of evasion are unmatched by any known Operative. With the
information gathered from Vashuo’s findings and that of our Operatives,
numerous unsolved murders have been linked to Veil and the Cypherite
organization.

I have been given authorization from Commander
Lock to publicly recognize operatives who have acted with the precision
and haste necessary to bring this mystery to a close. True Warriors of
Zion, these operatives have earned the respect they deserve from those
of us here at Zion.

Due to the haste and dedication in which the following parties worked, special recognition is given to them:
•Foxxdie of the HvCFT Revenant I (The Revenant, Regression)
•Ralica of The Oriate (Prophets of the Martyr, Regression)
•Maverick37 of the Tigers Claw (Prophets of the Martyr, Regression)

In
no particular order, the following parties alongside with their
respected crews and factions were the ones to unveil Toorima as the
traitor with all the necessary evidence:

•Calliente of The Tempest (Fallen Horizon, Method)
•SpliceX of Redemption (The Triad, Proxy)
•Symmetric of The Adonis (The Kings of Never, Iterator)
•2Fist of Asmodeus (The True Believers, LineNoise)
•Tbone of Libertas (Furious Angels, Enumerator)
•(We are still awaiting reports from the Heuristic instance)
•Tacho of The Deliverance (Children of Zion, Input)
•ulppis of The Six (Coded Souls, Output)


We
have her now and she will pay for her treachery. Justice will be served
and the memory of Vashuo, and the others she and her followers have
eliminated, will not go unnoticed. Upon her arrival to Zion,
interrogations will proceed as well as all necessary investigations.
The Council will decide her fate.

Very good work everyone. I've been archiving the MxO storyline for
sometime now, and even managed to miss a few of the things posted here
(flash traffic for Zion and Machines... I had only ever seen the global
one. If anyone has a link to the Merovingian ones that would be great.)



Darconn's resources are excellent, and have helped me greatly in my
research into all the events. Well recommended. I wouldn't be surprised
if all those links posted are going to be disabled soon, so everyone
might want to see about making backup copies incase SOE doesn't copy it
over to the new Data Node One.



Good work.
