Welcome to Hell
It is the year 2132, and the Earth of Old is nothing more than a story that mother's tell their dying children at night in hopes their dreams will be pleasant. Hell has come to Earth and its demons have taken refuge in human hosts. Survival is the only thing that matters anymore.
Setting
Our story will take place on the remains of the Mississippi River system, most likely being centered in a ruined New Orleans. The water and soil of the area is highly contaminated, meaning it is nearly to grow anything. Areas that were once lush and green have been reduced to depressing wastelands. The once proud, festive buildings of New Orleans are now little more than decaying ruins and the underground transit system is home to cannibals and murderers.
Characters
As long as your characters are human, they can be whatever you want them to be. The darker the character the better. Very little is off limits. Because we're going to have a group that's relatively small, you're welcome to have multiple characters. The more personalties the better, amiright?
It should be noted that there are a few predetermined NPCs, but those will be revealed a little later in the RP as co-GM and I see fit.
Technology
Technology is, well, shitty at best...deadly at worst. It's highly unreliable, and if you find something reliable? You'll probably be killed for it. So it's probably a good idea not good to brag about an Earth of Old weapon that you found.
