Not really nuclear wasteland apocalypse but a kind of gradual breakdown of order for many reasons, including various wars, government experiments gone wrong, various gangs taking over entire cities and general madness like that. 
We would be members of a cult called the League of Bastards, a group focused on exploiting the f**ed up state of the world for their own personal gain. The League of Bastards, though few in number, is ruthless and feared, but as you can probably guess by the name, the members of this group aren't exactly honorable, and are fine with fighting and killing each other over disagreements. This means PVP, YAY! But heres another detail: For some reason, every time a Bastard dies, he/she wakes up a few hours later, alive and breathing. Who is responsible for this? Funny enough, every other gang, cult, and faction in the city seems hell bent on wiping out the Bastards for good. Lol, best of luck to them.

So this RP would be set in either Denver, CO or Northern Virginia, your vote. Think Fallout, Manhunt, and Dark Souls mixed together (though you could say the graphics suck.)

How does this all sound to you?
