This RP is going to begin in the year 2029, a decade after a never before seen meteor shower that blitzes the world with a rain down of meteorites that are extremely radioactive, with radioactivity that practically rivals that of Chernobyl. In the wake of the meteor shower, due to the intensity of the shower itself as well as the severity of the radiation, civilization has basically fallen, with a global death toll that reaches into the hundreds of millions. A decade later, much of the world is still severely poisoned by the heavy radiation, with nothing left of humanity but scattered safe zones, rogue states and republics, and bands and hordes of marauders, survivalists, and cannibals. Worse yet, these survivors of mankind must also endure mutant abominations as well as what seem to be otherworldly creatures, which some speculate could have been "passengers" aboard the meteors that pounded into the body of the earth. Needless to say, this will be a hellish world where only the strong will endure and survive. [/i] [color=ed1c24]________________________________________________________________[/color] [i]The RP will be centered around San Francisco, Oakland, and Alcatraz Island. Alcatraz will house a safe zone controlled by remnants of the US Army, while the surrounding mainland will be considered danger zones, inhabited by both Mutants and hostile survivalists alike, the surrounding cities and towns will also be scavenging grounds for food, weapons, and other valuable resources. NOTE: I'm up for debate on expanding the in-game borders past the described areas if everyone wishes. Below are additional details, as well topics up for debate and vote. I've already begun work on the skeletal frame of this RP, but need input and opinions before I continue on. [/i] [color=ed1c24]________________________________________________________________[/color] [b]Currency[/b] [hider=Hider] Should currency options be restricted to food items and weapons and ammunition, or should it expand to other resources such as clothing, gasoline, coal, scrap metal, etcetera, like a barter system. [/hider] [b]The "Mutants"[/b] [hider=Hider] Should these radiation tolerant monsters(which will remain undisclosed until the RP release for sheer suspense) be aliens from another worldly galaxy who arrived aboard the meteorites, or should they be mutated products of the advanced high intensity radiation? Also, should mutation be restricted to animals and beasts or can humans be mutated too? Or should the radiation simply kill humans? [/hider] [b]Should the Radiation reanimate the dead? I.E zombies.[/b] [hider=Hider] I know this has been SO overdone, but no harm in asking if people would like that. [/hider] [b]What does everyone think of these options for character "class" choices?[/b] [hider=Hider] •Zone Citizen •Marauder/Smuggler •Cannibal •Bandit •Merchant/Trader [/hider] [b]Should this RP stay centered in this particular region of the United States?[/b] [hider=Hider] Should it stay within the SF-Oakland region, expanding no farther than the borders of California? Or should it have the potential to reach all from the tip of Florida to the fringes of Alaska? Or perhaps even farther than that? NOTE: THE RP WILL STILL [u]BEGIN[/u] IN THE SF-OAKLAND REGION REGARDLESS. [/hider] [b]Should this RP split up into "seasons" or "acts" or "parts" with separate OP's? Or should it all stay on as one mega RP, even if it's still going say in a year from now and we're not even centered around the same characters and setting and whatnot?[/b]
