In the distant future a great disaster floods the globe, fortunately a decades before a large number of the worlds wealthiest citizens combined their resources to have a huge floating city built, Utopia, a floating pleasure palace so that they may escape the nations of the mainland and subsequently survive the annihilation of the human race.
The descendants of the Founders would make their homes in the tallest, brightest and most vibrant parts of the Utopian Upper City, below them would be the children of the Architects, and then the children of Foremen and the Farmers would be in the lowest parts of the Upper City.
But those whose sweat and blood actually built the city were rewarded with positions in it when Utopia was finished, after all without them, who would operate and maintain all of the city's factories and machines. Their descendants live in the smog filled Undercity, alongside the very machines and reactors that they maintain.
A few factions have risen since the creation of the City:
The Revolution is a group mainly compiled of Undercity workers and a few Uppercity citizens who believe that this new age caste system must come to an end. Most of their demonstrations are peaceful but recently some of the more extreme members have attacked Founders and Architects. Rumor has it that these extremists will either secede or take over the faction.
The Unwanted are the refugees of the old world, living in parts of the Undercity that are borderline lethal to human beings. These people are unwanted by nearly all Utopian Citizens, even the workers of the Undercity see them as parasites who have not earned a place in this city. There are a few who see the Unwanted as a cheap espionage resource in the Undercity.
The Security Force was founded to keep the peace among ALL of Utopia's inhabitants but as of late the Director has turned them into the bodyguards of the Uppercity. Most of the SF is made of Undercity citizens looking for a higher residence and more power. Rumor has it that if the Revolution and the becomes more aggressive the SF will have to start making offensive deployments into the Undercity for the first time.
You will all play key players in each faction and will play out whether or not Utopia goes to war with itself.
We'll Need These Players:
Founder Council Members(2-3) Upper class, powerful and someone needs to sympathize with the lower class because this is the group who have the power to order the SF into becoming a standing army.
Security Chief This position will be held by someone who is likely from the upper city but I wouldn't mind if they came from the Undercity and are
Security Officer Undercity Officer who'll likely be there when the SF are deployed.
Revolution Leader One of three leaders in the Revolution, I'd rather they be non extremist but that isn't set in stone.
Revolution Activist An activist who wants change but in a non lethal way
Revolution Extremist An activist who wants change and will take it by force if they must.
Uppercity Spy Likely a Foreman or an Architect who sympathizes with the Revolution and will inform them of the uppercity workings.
Unwanted Spy An unwanted refugee who is on the payroll of the SF for information on the Revolution.
