Earth was the home of mankind and it was once a simple, peaceful place for centuries at times… Although, mankind eventually grew greedy, they became selfish, indolent, violent, and forgotten what was truly important in life. The Gods then become furious watching these humans destroy everything they worked so hard to create. So they attacked, killing off over half of humanity and, punishment for the rest... those left alive were enslaved, now long gone, and so we are their descendants. The earth was... I guess you can say reborn. Species evolved, including some of the humans. Technology advanced.. Well, that which was not destroyed. Creatures men thought only existed in old tales, and nightmares began to surface, no longer needing to hide. So the Gods decided upon a new idea... [i]'Why not enslave the humans to these, their betters of old?'[/i] Thus their will was done... however, there are those humans who resist and resent these creatures, in secret and silence, gathering their army to claim what is rightfully theirs ... Earth. ------------------------- Environment – Much of nature has been destroyed. A lot of the world consists of wastelands, desert and ocean. Although through the many years many signs of nature slowly restoring itself have become apparent. (possibilities like small forests and such that are around 100yrs old max?), though a majority of what happens is within a humongous city called Enigma that is sectioned off into 4 parts. Each part has different technological advances, almost as if they are perpetually stuck within a specific "era" persay. ~~~~~~ Plot you ask? Obviously Choosing a side :3 ...fighting along side the Rebellion, or The Hierarchy. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Enigma is where most citizens live now, being one of the very seldom sanctuaries from the outside world, which has in the recent years degenerated into wastelands of nature and barbaric creatures, not all of which are inhuman. Enigma is divided into four primary sectors, and ruled by Three Elders [b]South End/The Slums.[/b] [hider=Image of The Slums] [url=http://s955.photobucket.com/user/MetalGearZombies/media/Dinan_zpscb778785.jpg.html][img]http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/ae36/MetalGearZombies/Dinan_zpscb778785.jpg[/img][/url] [/hider] South (Slums) has very little to not technology... more or less think back to the first home phone. Maybe television. They have electricity and older techs, but are not authorized the newer stuff as they are all "humans" (think something early 1900s, 1960s at most.) Being a slum, the area is of course not well maintained. Several areas within the slums boast very high crime rates. Free humans and slaves allowed to live outside of their Master’s homes reside here. ------ [b]West End.[/b] [hider=Image of West End] [url=http://s955.photobucket.com/user/MetalGearZombies/media/43dfb5e9-d030-4e75-b4d5-3078a6349b55_zps4d6dc0c4.jpg.html][img]http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/ae36/MetalGearZombies/43dfb5e9-d030-4e75-b4d5-3078a6349b55_zps4d6dc0c4.jpg[/img][/url] [/hider] West End (Upper middle class): Comprised of businesses, both small and large, that are run by Monsters. Humans are typically not authorized within this area of Enigma as they are far more repressed due to the Monsters ruling the 'world' as it were. The few humans that are, usually those who have done huge favors to monsters and earned significant trust, deal with many of the restrictions found in east end. Technology - cars, high tech comps, cell phones, fun toys on a level slightly beyond real life (think tech 30-50 years ahead of us) ------ [b]East End.[/b] [hider=Image of East End] [url=http://s955.photobucket.com/user/MetalGearZombies/media/futuristic-city_zps9a18afc3.jpg.html][img]http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/ae36/MetalGearZombies/futuristic-city_zps9a18afc3.jpg[/img][/url] [/hider] East End (lower middle class): They have better technology, but are still eons behind North End. Its a mixture of lesser Monster races and humans that are slightly more trusted than the rest. Tech level is early 2000’s. Monsters are allowed all technological freedom we have IRL, Humans have to bear with certain restrictions. (think: limited TV channels/limits to internet access. Think something a dictator would do) This area houses both free humans and lesser monsters that have been given permission to run their own business. This area holds both the Red Light district and Business/Entertainment district, the 'stars' typically reside here though their residence are typically located in West End. ----- [b]North End.[/b] [hider=Image of North End] [url=http://s955.photobucket.com/user/MetalGearZombies/media/6851350_f520_zpsdbd98d63.jpg.html][img]http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/ae36/MetalGearZombies/6851350_f520_zpsdbd98d63.jpg[/img][/url] [/hider] North End (Rich people): The Elders and CEOs of big corporations live here. (rich families, leaders of specific monster factions) All tech is the newest and 'shiniest' that it can be. (sci-fi. There is stuff like hover bikes, advanced drones. Other cool inventions that are slightly beyond today’s reach) Those that are here 'rule' the other three sections. There are only three Elders (of which I am one) and each one rules one of the Ends... the Slums is ruled Jointly by all three. - [b][u][color=007236]Character Sheet[/color][/u][/b] [hider=Character Sheet] Name: Age: Attire/Appearance: [ Images are fine as well ] Race: [Humans either belong to the rebellion or are slaves of the city] Gender: Occupation: [ If you're an Elder or anything that has a specific rank please state it here] Location: Alliance: A Brief History: Other: [/hider] ~ [color=00aeef][b][u]The Hierarchy[/u][/b][/color] [hider= The Hierarchy] First Elder : Azura Rosethorn Second Elder: [ Open ] Third Elder : [ Open] [/hider] [color=fff200][b][u]The Rebellion[/u][/b][/color] Tired of always being under the boot of the monsters the Gods allowed to take over, the Rebellion seeks to overthrow the rule of the Elders and take back their home.

[hider=The Rebellion] Leader: Mason Thames [/hider] [u][B]If you’re interested in being an Elder or an Officer of the Rebellion let me know, and we can discuss it in PM. [/B][/u] ~ [hider=Rules] 1) No abuse of power. Since I'm giving everyone free reign... let’s keep it fun for everyone. 2) No Collab posts are to exceed 6 pages (or 5k words), not everyone likes to collab and it is not fair to make people feel like they have to match posts that people have clearly worked on together. The limit is not per person either, it is 6 pages no matter how many people are participating in the collab. 3) Solo posts are not to exceed 5k words, remember people, quality over quantity. Your posts do not need to be super long to be super good. This limit is mostly put into place to limit the amount of fluff in a post. At the same time, please do not give any less than two solid paragraphs... one liners and single paragraphs are extremely hard to work with. 4) Try to make a minimum of two posts a week. It's unfair to everyone else if they have to wait around, but if something comes up let me know or even put your character in an idle setting. 5) Though this should go without saying, No one is allowed to excessively control another person's Character. If that person wishes to formally hand over their Character to another person (be it perm or temp), the original owner of said character needs to contact one of the GMs to inform them of the changing of hands. 6) No full blooded dragons. HOWEVER, Dragon Humanoids like [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/4b/c7/a6/4bc7a6172451a62e67db48e69b3864e3.jpg]this[/url] is ok. Our reasons for no dragons? They tend to be a little to much on the OP side. 7) Have lots of fun and tell all your friends! ~I encourage romance and dramatic stuff…. Please :3 [/hider]
