Shipping Log is an onboard log and analytical dossier generated by the MUTERRA artificial intelligence.
It serves as a bridge between the game and the cinematic universe, documenting a character’s trajectory across time and environment.
Purpose of the Shipping Log #
The Shipping Log is used to:
- reveal characters and their skins
- deepen the lore
- demonstrate personality transformation under environmental pressure
It is not a linear narrative, but a system of observations, facts, and conclusions.
What the Shipping Log Records #
1. Before the Crash #
Static and dynamic data:
- origin
- profession and social role
- digital and media footprint
- political, military, or corporate affiliations
- indirect behavioral indicators (logistics, movements, decisions)
2. After the Crash #
Transformation under planetary influence:
- mutations (biological and physical)
- implementations (mechanical, technological)
- integration with AI or symbiotic systems
- alignment with factions, squads, or survival paths
- shifts in morality, goals, and identity
3. Consequences of Choice #
The Shipping Log does not capture intent — it records outcomes:
- what was lost
- what was amplified
- who the character became within the MUTERRA ecosystem
Format and Media #
A Shipping Log may include:
- AI analytical text
- images (archival, reconstructed, observational)
- video fragments
- temporal and contextual markers
Data sources may include:
- pre-crash records
- post-crash observations
- mixed or indirect sources (social networks, leaks, surveillance, open databases)
Characters and Skins #
The Shipping Log applies to:
- characters
- their skins as post-crash states
A skin reflects:
- environmental adaptation
- consequences of decisions
- degree of mutation or technological integration
While preserving:
- visual continuity
- logical consistency between change and planetary conditions
Core Principle #
The Shipping Log documents transformation under environmental pressure.
- Pressure.
- Fear.
- Choice.
- Mutation.
- Integration.
- Affiliation.
- Consequences.
MUTERRA does not explain or justify.
It records what happened.
