I'm interested in a general-apocalypse setting almost at all times, and would be willing to look into Degenesis further if necessary should this get further than an interest check.

Edit: Clarification, I know zero about Degenesis but will take some time when I can to read up on what you have posted and, should we move beyond this interest check, will be willing to do my own digging for setting info should you require it. Naturally you presenting information would be the path of ease, but I'm more than willing to look into it personally if that's a requirement.
