Dependent almost completely on oil and tourism, her shores have long been infested with a line of unstable military commandants, jefe's and puppet presidents. 2020 is no different, with an upcoming election that is all but a farce, the poor will continue on being poor, the rich will get richer and all will be well. Reports of a unique new strain of rabies in rural China are barely a bloop on the radar. Melizea is home to nearly thirty-nine million people, sharing a border with three other countries and host to the island nation of San SofĂ­a just off the coast.[/indent] [b][u]Mechanics of [b][color=red]Death[/color][/b], [b][color=black]Oil[/color][/b] and [b][color=green]Paradise[/color][/b][/u][/b] - [b]Presidential Election[/b][list][*]All players will vote in a preliminary election to determine the [b]President of Melizea[/b].[list][*]All players have one vote.

This is also a NRP in a world about to undergo a zombie apocalypse. That means that the players incentives in the first third of the game will radically change after the dead start rising up and they may forced to work together a bit more than they traditionally anticipated.[/hider] [hr][hr] [b][u]Character Creation[/u][/b] [code] [b]Full Name[/b]: [b]Age[/b]: [b]Brief Description & Background[/b]: [b]Military or Civilian Background[/b]: [Hidden Modifier Attached][/code]
