This RP idea is based on the online comic/multi-media project Romantically Apocalyptic.
The basic idea is that of the comics, we are a group of survivors in the barren wasteland of what used to be New York or something (I think it was Manchester in the comics) during a nuclear winter after an artificially intelligent search engine went rogue and "copyrighted humanity out of existence." There are no humans left (just their skeletons) and we are a group of the only known survivors looking for a way to not only survive this wasteland but flourish. Oh, and did I forget to mention? We are all (or at least most of us are) gloriously insane. I don't know if I want the RP to be as funny as the comics, I'm in a dark mood lately (not a bad mood, mind you, just in the mood for something dark) and the RP may end up going from being dark to funny and back again depending on what situations we find ourselves in.
We won't be playing as the characters from the comic, we would be playing our own, original characters doing something different somewhere else. We might encounter some of the same types of things that the comic characters do, but for the most part it will be our own little apocalypse that was inspired by the comic.
Anyone interested in RA but doesn't want to read the comics NetsWorld did an awesome dubbing of them, you can find the first episode here.
