So over the last year or so, my writing skills have improved and etcetera and it is good to be back. Anyway, I thought it'd be good to introduce a new RP and see what people make of it. It's going to be a post-apocalyptic setting, and will focus a lot on characters, fleshing them out and the story that they're involved in. My past RP's sucked because they just did. I'm kind of bust at the moment so there'll be more to the thread but here is what I got...
STORY: The year is 1338 EW, a new era after the AD. Aliens had ravaged the entire earth on the year of 2012 AD, the mark of the end of the world. Of course, the humans resisted and their battle seemed an advantageous course; but the aliens proved superior with their armada of weaponry and forces thus the world was taken by storm and the humans were being wiped out. A secret project known as End World had been authorised however, destroying the world's habitats and it's occupants with it. Not much is known to what End World was, many speculate a beam, a nuke or a simple catastrophic spur of the Earth's core. Some of these theories seemed more likely than the others, but whatever the case; it was all agreed that the aliens were gone and that the humans could start again. But in this state, the world was destroyed. There was not much more than ruins, wastelands and the entire landscape of devastation that followed the apocalypse. Settlements were made from whatever was found, and old ones still remained (through their turmoil and signs of destruction) that humans were contempt to remain in. No one really knows how the humans survived after End World, but they did and started a new cycle of life to rebuild the old one.
To live on the world, survival is every basic fundamental of a human, from learning how to scavenge to the basic creation of a weapon that can defend yourself from the wildlife of the Outscape (the term for the wilderness that is not civilised) or the evil of man that would still exist. From there, any human would then decide his course on life. Would they fend for themselves and hope to live a generally hardened life? Would they find their calling and help to build humanity? Or was there a deeper cause that everyone was overlooking. Even a thousand years after End World, and Philosophers were the central of science that existed. There was more to what was out there, and everything was not safe. Whatever End World was, it had caused such a shift in balance that the unnatural decided to exist. Two headed lions, 7 foot tortoises, the undead... God's own teachings failed to exist anymore and soon the purpose of humanity became a mystery. Many factions existed of course, some seeking to restore order to a world of chaos. Some who believed in survival of the fittest. Some who worshipped the old aliens and prayed on their returning for a 'purified' life. What would one choose?
But deep within the underground, remaining anonymous to the prying minds of the Nomads; an ancient force stirs, ready to awaken to the true calling that would release IT and it's kind from their eternal prison... Ready to take a world they once took before...
Hee's how it starts, you are a Nomad, someone that lives on the Surface whom are differed from the Dwellers (the underground people). You are in a city known as Newer York, a home to many of a land that was once known as America but is now known as The States alongside the many other continents that exist or did at least (these places will be described soon). How you got here is up to you and will be explained by your introduction. As of such, the biography is now in the power of your creation. Your character also has DNA genetics of the ancient Aliens which allows for a choice of powers described below.
Just remember, the general rules of an RP:
No Godmodding.
A good use of grammar, punctuation and etiquette.
Don't be AFK for so long. Otherwise, your character may be rendered gone.
Be respectful to each other and such.
And etcetera...
Here are the choices of certain factors that you can choose for certain characteristics you will use in your bio:
FACTIONS: The Order Of Knights: Dedicated to preserving mankind and keeping order by any means.
The Following: Apostles dedicated to the Aliens, who believe that they shall return and purify mankind as it should have been a millenia ago.
The Bible People: The last remaining true religion of AD, these people are Christians who believe in a God. Though albeit that he is in the form of a book they call 'The Bible' and use all their resources and time dedicated to finding it, which is indeed the last copy of any Bible that existed.
The Not-Bible People: A crazy cult that has spread it's beliefs like a parasite; these apostles oppose the Bible People and believe that God is in the form of an unexploded nuke to when he shall explode and cure the world of it's infection. Their time is used to finding that.
The Republic Of States: A military organisation who are dedicated to order as TOOK, but more in the general sense of a military life and aren't exactly on the best of terms with TOOK. There have been a few wars...
Necrohood: This brotherhood believe that the stirring of unnatural forces is, well natural. Their deity is Necro, a being who will bring Judgement Day and resurrect ALL the dead to oppose the living. A lot of suicides and druid rituals in this Satanic cult.
The Sisterhood: A sisterhood of killers who wish to kill every single man ever. Or at least the obedience of them. They happened to find archives of people known as 'The Amazons', so yeah... feminists extreme.
A-Nar-Kee: The biggest gang in the states who dedicate their lives to raiding, killing and everything unpleasant. Just evil people really.
Feel free to make your own faction if none of the above suit you but keep it on a minor scale compared to the others as these are the major factions.
CLASSES: Knight: The term for a warrior and one who has dedicated himself to the good of mankind and nice looking armour. This is exclusive to being a member of The Order Of Knights.
Fighter: Like above, but more physical and a survivor jack-of-all-trades.
Philosopher: A man of science and thinking, reads books and guides his intelligence to help others. Or not.
Blade: Like the name suggest, you will love assassination techniques and sharp pointy things. Probably cause they hurt people.
Ranger: A man of the wild, excellent in survival skills and honing his shooting techniques. This person probably likes to look in the distance too off a cliff. Maybe you can tame wildlife too. Cool.
Shooter: Excellent in gunship, making guns, and anything to do with guns. They also probably like guns.
Disciple: Awesome at healing people, maybe cause of alien powers or just good first-aid techniques. Also might be religious.
Architect: Your building skills are unparalleled, and your expertise on figuring how anything ticks is envied. You can make machines, robots, bombs and a lot of things that go 'BEEP'. You are also great at computers and hacking. For some reason.
POWERS (One power allowed only and is the trait of your alien DNA)
Telekinesis (Only with Philosopher class, Disciple class or Architect class)
Manipulation Of An Element (Not Creation)
Divination (The foresight of the future)
Beastmastery (Free with Ranger class)
Necromancy (Like above, but raising the dead instead)
Healing (Comes free with Disciple class and you kind of have it with the Knight class, but not as good)
Invisibility (Only works with Blade class)
CONTINENTS:
The States (America)
New Utopia (Western Europe)
Ruin Utopia (Eastern Europe but is now underwater)
The Cold Lands (Russia, Finland, Sweden and Norway which is a merged continent and is covered in ice and snow)
The True Outland (Africa which is now just a desert much like the rest of the world)
The Far Land (Eastern Asia which is not really known of and said to be a paradise. China, Japan and Korea as one)
Alright your bio should look like this: Here is an example to which will be my character and he will bring the group together.
Name: Alonzo
Gender: Male
Age: Not Known
Height/Weight: 6'1/12.3st
Hair Colour: White.
Eye Colour: No pupils so white.
Appearance: Wears a purple scarf that wraps round to cover most of his face. A brimmed black fedora with a purple feather. A full black waistcoat with purple highlights, a white shirt and a purple tie. Skinny trousers with a purple sash and silver belt that has the buckle shape of a wolf. Wears shin high-boots which are also highlighted in purple patterns and have spurs. He also wears black leather gloves and looks more well off than others but only just about. His hair is parted to the sides and sticks out from the side of the fedora, giving him an onimous look. From what can be seen of his face, it is all cracked and scarred and looks as if it masking something while his pure white eyes stare into your soul. The scarf and sash flap away in the wind giving him the representation of a wise ambassador, but also the sense of something mysterious and possibly evil in him. He is slender but built, suggesting that he is experienced but weathered. A man of past, but one who serves the future.
History: Not that there is much to discover of this mystery man who hides his face, but he is a drifter and he is searching for a group to put together that he can use to battle a force that is due to arise. His motives are unknown as his ultimate goal, but nevertheless he is determined to achieve it. Slick with his blades, he is no fan of guns and prefers to go in with stealth and melee. He works for an organisation known as The Order Of Knights, a group dedicated to the civilisation of the ravaged and the alleged good of mankind. More will be revealed of this character and group over time as the group put their trust into him.
Personality: He is manipulative, determined, slightly narcissistic, eccentric and a real mind to work with. Not exactly the most heroic of ambassadors to lead mankind's resolution. But he means well, and is only determined to do what is right for mankind whether it means a few sacrifices for the greater good or a deeper unorthodox strategy that would be overlooked by most. Either way, his heart seems to be in the right place; but is his mind? He is a character that will be revealed more as the RP progresses.
Allignment: Neutral
Faction(s): The Order Of Knights
Birthplace: Spain, Western Utopia
Skills/Abilities: A master of anything sharp, and a craftsman of the words. Uses his silver tongue to get by. Also highly intelligent.
Class: Philosopher/Blade
Powers: Manipulation of the air
Also, your character doesn't have to look human. He/she can have distinct characteristics that may be a result of the alien in them. By all means, you don't have to an alien gene in you; you can be human if you want.
My bio isn't up to scratch and there might be more stuff to add, but you've got the basics. There will be more, but for now this is what is shown. Hope you get interested and I await for the responses!
