So you're in the Animus

[Distorted Stu]

Lets say you got put int he Animus, what adventures would you discover? Who would you be? Where would you be?

For those who havnt played Assassins Creed, the Animus is a machine that you place yourself in and it allows the user to relive the memories of their ancestors.

For me, living the life of a shoemaker or a factory worker during WW2 would be a bit boring (although my Grandad did get bombed, so that might be fun?)

 

[Whoolpurse]

I'd be.. Sailing the seven seas singin' "Yar yar we're at the sea, I'm so awesome as a pirate can be!" over and over again.

I guess I would be a jew in one of the ghettos in poland during WWII. My great grandmother and great grandfather fled from poland before the extermination started, They even had "juden" stamped on there passports. Ether that or a native amercan.

 

[DragonsAteMyMarbles]

Irish farmers. LOTS of Irish farmers.

Or, if the meaning of my surname actually has a basis in fact, the king of Ireland from a few centuries back.

 

[imnot]

Piracy on the moon.
True story that.

 

[Legendairy314]

Distant relative of mine was a president so checking out the White House would be pretty high up on my list. As far as other ancestors you could really go anywhere considering how varied family trees can be. Maybe reliving someone's memories right before an event happens, betting on it, and getting loads of money that will be passed on too me would be a good idea. Although I could do that as the president of the freaking United States as well too...

being stuck in a japanese encampment doesnt sound like my cup of tea I,ll pass

 

[Simalacrum]

Two notable options...

Admiral Parker, the first admiral of the Argentinian Navy, is one my ancestors. Unfortunately he was crushed by the Empire... ironically enough, I myself am British.

David Burns, whose name is honoured by being granted as a middle name to each generation's eldest son (which, in my generation's case, is me), was killed in action in the Great War.

Both are interesting choices, but both are killed... yay -_-

 

[Secret world leader (shhh)]

I get to choose between:

Being lord provost( I don't know what that is but it has lord in it) of my town.
Fighting in world war 2
Or (if my grandad is to be belived) being a viking and pillaging scotland.

Oh yeah.

 

[Per Kaas]

I personally would be raiding britain and the rest of europe in a longship during the viking age.

 

[aLivingPheonix]

I would go to one of my really far up ancestors that was alive when Pakistan seperated from India. That would be a pretty cool memory to live.

 

[imnot]

Can the Animus extend past human ancestors?

I wanna be a Theraspid, fuck yeah.

That would make apretty intresting assasins creed 4.

 

[cke]

Well, my grandfather fought in Afghan during the Soviet campaign.
My uncle is an astronaut who spent quite a lot of time on the MIR space station, but he's alive so that probably doesn't count ;/ or does it? How does that thing work anyway?
Can I give it someone else's DNA and relive THEIR ancestor's memories? How much adventures can DNA hold,? Ugh, so many questions, so little time...

What if someone came back from the future and became my parent in the past?

 

[tombman888]

WWII here i come.

 

[Secret world leader (shhh)]

I personally would be raiding britain and the rest of europe in a longship during the viking age.

I wonder if we'd be on the same ship? maybe our ancestors were drinking and pillaging buddies.

 

[Sun Flash]

A farmer? It really wouldn't change, even up to the 1600s. But I suppose my ancestors would've had to have fought in two world wars. meh.

 

[CoffeeOfDoom]

My ancestors were (apparently) highwaymen in the 17th century, sounds pretty cool to me!

 

[SirDeadly]

Discovering Australia

 

[Captain Pancake]

Probably my great grandfather in the trenches.
