Infinite Metagame Laptop
The Infinite Metagame Laptop is a regression-persistent computer that becomes the prison, interface, body, and eventual memorial of Infinite Metagame.
History
Sealing the Admin
After Reality Online shuts down, the laptop is left with the Undertaker and passed to Oh Dok-seo. Her writing and Miko role help seal the Admin inside it. The imprisoned god can communicate through the machine, corrupt or enable creative work, and participate in simulations while Dok-seo carries the vessel from cycle to cycle. (Chapters 117, 123, 149–159, 198–203)
A city engine and personal ark
The laptop supports the Mastermind campaign, BusaN's operation, and later status services. Infinite Metagame eventually recreates it from letters within its own body, revealing the device as an ark shaped by its desire to persist. When the Admin relinquishes its remaining voice and power, its name and the manuscript remain with Dok-seo rather than disappearing completely. (Chapters 254–273, 330, 339–344, 377–389, 419, 436–441)
