[i]Welcome to Eden. One of the last few bastions of free society. The autonomous city-state is known for high crime-rates, an oxymoronic peace force, and supernatural occurrences. For the citizens who aren't wealthy enough to buy their way to safety, it's a horrendous place to live. But it's not like anywhere else is any better. Safer than the bandits and flesh-melting heat outside, at least.

The city is corrupt. Corporations act above the law. If one lives in the wards, they can have their choice of living in gangland or terrorized by the peace force. The districts aren't much better. Terror attacks and supernatural forces pervade Eden. Citizens can do nothing but try to keep the abominable horrors out of their minds. The supernatural isn't something that normal people can handle. Not the peace force, not Eden's government, not the gangs.

But that's why Ultralight exists.

To illuminate what lies in the shadows.[/i]

Ultralight is an RP about conspiracies, fighting against the supernatural, and trying to survive against all odds. Y'all will play the part of contractors, free-lance agents working for Ultralight. Contractors come from all walks of life. Some may be grizzled criminals, released solely to work for Ultralight. Some may be fresh-faced newcomers who only know of Ultralight because they got caught up in a supernatural occurrence. Often times, contractors are afflicted by supernatural phenomena themselves, giving them the ability to use things such as telekinesis. While Ultralight primarily fights against the supernatural, they also end up having to clash with gangs and the peace force. 

The world is somewhere between near-future and cyberpunk. I would hesitate to call it cyberpunk, even with corrupt megacorps, East-Asian aesthetics, and gang fights. There's no neurojacking, very little body-hacking outside of true prosthetics (cybernetics are still in their infancy, robot hand is about as far as you can get as a normal person), laser weapons, or true AI. Traditional cartridge based weapons are still the most prevalent form of firearm. Cost-prohibitive magnetic weapons are used by the peace force and the rich.

The city of Eden is heavily divided by wealth. There are the wards (slums similar to the Kowloon Walled City), the districts (such as red light and downtown, middle-class tend to stay here), and the centre (where all of the rich stay, massive glitzy skyscrapers that can be seen from anywhere in Eden). Large areas of Eden are often ghost towns due to the supernatural.

At first, the story will be more linear. As the conspiracies and new foes pop up, the RP will become more open. Post rate would be something around weekly, because that's always a decent rate. For the length, I don't really mind. Of course, I would prefer if people didn't write 10,000 character posts or rapid fired with single sentences, but I would say it's fine to post a single paragraph every once in a while, especially when someone else is the focal point of a scene. It's anime aesthetic because thematic cohesion.

I can answer any questions. Just need to gauge interest before I commit to full write-ups and character sheets.
