[hider=Basic Situation]It is 3,002,014 AD now and Earth has been uninhabited for almost 3 million years. The last humans left in the year 2,055. There is no remnants of previous human life there now. Even toxic chemicals and plastics have been destroyed and over come by nature. No one knows what animals and creatures reside here now. Earth has returned to a completely natural state where only animals roam.

Humans are very nearly extinct, during the early 2000's nearly all the supernatural creatures evacuated the earth on ships that were often perceived as UFOs or other unidentifiable phenomenon. Humans unfortunately remained on the earth for another 40 years or so. Society collapsed and world wars raged, many were killed and others forever changed as leaders looked for ways to find and manipulate the human race. 

Meanwhile many light years away the supernatural creatures such as witches, lycans, pixies, faeries, vampires, and many other creatures were settling a new planet very similar to earth with many new creatures. Over the years when humans did finally evacuate and figure out how to get to the planet where the supernaturals had settled very few were left. Even fewer exist in modern times because most were made sterile because of the chemicals used in warfare and experimentation.

Now it is time for the return to Earth. The Council, the major governing body for the current world, called for a team of subjects, adventurers and survivalist that will return to earth to start the process of reclaiming the planet with plans to do things right this time. They will land in a designated spot on the planet which has changed drastically over the last three million years. They will face many challenges in finding a new place to settle and survive. With them they will bring supplies and a few animals that are hardy and intelligent.[/hider]

Modern Earth is approximately 75% water, 33% covered in ice. The magnetic poles have be reversed, the top pole is now magnetic south and the bottom pole is magnetic north. The magnetic field is now strong enough to disable all but very basic technology.

Erellon is the planet that the supernaturals fled to, it is approximately 65% water, the magnetic poles are the same as Earth in 2014, and 40% is covered in Ice.

General Playable Character Species
[hider=Lycans/Werewolves]
Females- 34 to 39” tall, 6.5 to 7.5’ nose to tail, 72.5 to 116 lb
Generally more refined looking in their canine form, thinner and less bulky than males.
Males- 43 to 50” tall, 8 to 9’ nose to tail, 123.5 to 160 lb
Heavier built, less refined, broader chest and shoulders than females, larger heads, usually much larger than females. The higher ranking the male within the pack the larger they generally are. Bachelor males, or males without a pack tend to be in the middle of the body scale range.
In general they come in a variety of coat colors similar to those seen on Grey Wolves and their eyes can be various colors though some are more common than others. Eye colors; Dark Brown, Yellow, Amber, Gold, Orange, Hazel, Blue, or Green. Listed from most to least common. 

Lycans are a full genetically diverse species, their numbers have vastly increased since the 2000s when they left the young Earth. They ended the blood feud with Vampires roughly a million years ago but some of the older bloodlines and packs still hold a bit of the grudge. There are several “founding bloodlines” within the now very diverse bloodlines. The “founding bloodlines” are the very first packs to come to Erellon. They are as follows; Bello (Italian), Collins (English), Demirci (Turkish), Kravec (Russian) Liu (Chinese), Nagi (Arabic), Richelieu (French), Schrader (Low German), Ó Dálaigh (Irish), Vang (Scandinavian). Many more packs came later on to Erellon but these were the first 10 to arrive here. 
Lycans are highly social creatures operating within a pack family structure generally run by a very dominate mated pair referred to as the Alpha Pair. They have the ability to communicate telepathically at all times with their pack and link all the other members together. They are the central bonding force between pack members. They generally have an enforcer who is know as the Beta he is usually the second largest male. There are female Betas but generally they are mated to a male who already had the rank. Alpha is generally a hereditary rank and is usually the strongest male and his male offspring. Alphas have the ability to locate members of their pack at will and also force them from one form to another. 
Males are very volatile when they are unmated so many packs require the previous Alpha’s heir to be mated before they take the position. Males and females are very Yin and Yang, they balance each other out and mated Lycans are much less volatile than unmated ones. If the Alpha dies with no heir there will be an ordeal held two full moons after their death and burial and any male may fight in the ordeal to win the spot of Alpha. Afterwards females may fight to become his mate.
Occasionally there will be a small male or female, generally an orphan that will be the Omega of the pack, they tend to get a lot of pack aggression thrown at them but they are gifted with a calming effect on the other pack members and some can turn out to be mild healers as well.

This will very much be a sort of free play kind of game. Anyone involved will be involved in the creation of the predators and prey animals that exist on this Renewed Earth. 
You can create new kinds of creatures to play. My only requirements is that they be able to either verbally or mentally (telepathically), for some of the more commonplace creatures I will create guidelines for their creation so there isn't so much discrepancy between characters.

If enough people are interested I will post character sheets and we will move forward. I want people that can post replies of at least two paragraphs at least every other days. The occasionally three day gap will be acceptable. If you are leaving or will be unable to post please just let me know and I will keep you in and make up an excuse for your character not being there if there are enough posts to require it.
