Keane's world deviated during the Great War and never experienced another World War.

ooo ooo now that's the kind of stuff I've looking forward to hearing. I love hearing where and why your world became different from our world.

Mykael Mullinax is a scientist for a major robotics company. He is the leading specialist in cybernetics, or was until he was fired one day. He was discovered to be doing some of his higher level experiments on himself.

Mykael had been doing experiments and implants on himself for over a year. He had been so careful, deleting any information that could show that he had been taking equipment and parts. He wrote some things off as cybernetic implants for injured police officers or military personnel. He was caught by pure luck. He was implanting a visual aid when another doctor walked into his office.

He had the option of leaving and his career being forever ruined, or going to jail and his career being ruined. He chose the option not ending in jail. That had been 3 weeks ago. He still couldn't find a job that allowed him to use his skills or cybernetic abilities.

He woke up the next morning and went job hunting as normal. Things seemed different to him. The first thing that caught his attention was the lack of robots on the street. A sanitation truck drove by.....filled with people. Jobs that were typically robotic jobs were being done by humans. He couldn't understand what happened.

Mykael spent the next week trying to understand what was going on. His apartment was the same as he remembered it, the internet still worked, although knowledge in robotics seemed stuck in the stone age. He accidently found his answer. History changed. He couldn't believe it. He spent another week trying to verify what he accidently found.

Japan had nuclear weapons dropped on them, destroying a vast area. Mykael knew that never happened. Japan was the main reason robotics were as common as they were. Japan, in 1952, had invented the AI engines that drove robots. The nuclear weapon must of prevented such a development.
 

Well then I use a year too, so heres my remake =)

Many years of intense studies have make Aderajam, the most prestigious of egiptian scientist.
Egypt, was never invaded by roman troops, they fear the army that slain Alexander the great, years. Demenses, an egyptian general from those times, the one that killed the great masedonian conqueror, became the new conqueror, and the crown of both high and low Egypt, became a great empire, ruled with wisdom and peace.
Aderajam himself and his discoveries, were almost to extraordinaries to be truth, or to be assumed as scientific realities. Miracles made with a pill, people healed of serious wounds, he even developed a devices with witch the law officers could make an hostile criminal, became a friendly ally.
A strange visitor with a stranger story.
His discoveries in the field of neurology, immunology and other human systems made him the object of strong controversies.
One day, staring empty minded over his notes for the next paper, he fell asleep.
But the world in witch he woke up, was "Slightly" different
 

Time locked worlds!

DOH

And I had such a cool idea too. Ah well, I shall make a new one.

Sadly, I don't have d20 Future, and I didn't see Nuclear Nomad in the D20 Future SRD... I suppose a reprint is bad, but perhaps a paraphrase? Say...5 levels worth? :)
