Warning: This role play is based off the end of the world, and contains mild violence and language. If you are uncomfortable with talking about and/or role playing death, this is not the right RP for you. This isn't a little romantic comedy. It's serious, and only serious and mature users should think about joining. Thank you.
--------------------------------------------------------

Introduction
The end is near, they said. There is not much time left for humanity. Everyone scorned their words, claiming insanity held them. But they were right. But, they were wrong as well. The end was closer than they thought. It was knocking on humanity's door, and it wasn't about to leave. As quickly as it came, it was over: war, disease, drought, famine. All that was left was the shell of a once great race; the ruins of a golden age. Only the stronge survived, but some of them wished they had died as well. The ones who had died were the lucky ones.
No one was about to imagine the hell that came to the survivers after the end of the world.

Information
This is an Apocolyptic Role Play based around the survivors after the world ended. There is not much food, and even less clean water. Most water and food has been contaminated by radiation, and almost all shelter has been destroyed. But in the ruins there are embers of hope. As time has progressed after the end, medicines and foods and ways of unconaminating water have been found. New creatures have risen from the remains of old. There is a chance for the survivors yet.

This RP was inspired by the book 'The Eleventh Plague' and a video game called 'The Fallout'. Neither I know much about, but the concept of both have helped with the creation of this RP.
--------------------------------------------------------

Rankings and Jobs
Scavenger: Scavengers are the lowest link in the new world. They scavenge for food and clean water, sometimes trading what they have found with Merchants. Scavengers or 'rouges' use what they have to survive, and would kill to protect what little they have.
Slavers: Slavers are men and women who hunt orphans and scavengers to sell or trade for food and water. They will even kidnap merchant children to sell.
The Orphans: The Orphans are children who wander and are part of no colony or city. Kind of like scavengers, but these young kids and teenagers have no protection from radiation and are distrustful. They do not know how to use weapons.
Merchants: Merchants are travelers who trade what they collect for things they need. They travel anywhere they can and will trade whatever they find.
Second Class Healers: The 'modern' doctors. These are scientists and doctors who work on helping the injured and sick.
Hunters: Hunters are the usual antisocial people who will do the dirty work for any colony or person. Most have gone rouge and will attack slaver camps or bands of merchants.
Gunners: Gunners are first class warriors and assassins. They have a trusty weapon by their side at all times, and can be known to carry more amunition than they need.
Herders: These are the animal friendly folk who are willing to experiment with and get to know the new animals in the new world.
Herbers: Herbers are the slang words used to describe the people who live in the colonies and cities.
Missionaries: Those who still believe in the gods and spirits of the old world. They will sometimes travel with merchants to spread their knowledge, and many can tell stories of how the world used to be.

Colonies and Cities
The Second Hand Colony: The colony taking up the entire Northern border with what used to be Canada, and stretches down to meet the Desert/Wasteland in the center. Mostly made of mountains and forests, this is the biggest colony, and is probably the most uncharted and wild one.
The Sea Colony: The colony by the sea, taking up the North Eastern part of the past USA. Because of bombings and radiation lakes and ponds pocket the land from impacts. The ocean is full of contaminated water, but some of the water inland is safe to drink.
The Forest Colony: Located on the Western side of what used to be America, this colony owns the states that were once California, Washington, Idaho, and Oregon. This colony is big on taking care of animals, and growing food.
The Desert/Wasteland Colony: This colony is located in the Central and Western parts of the past USA, owning most of the mountains and the great plains. In this area there is hardly enough water and food, and the big desert sun and barren landscape make it the perfect radiation zone. All who live here must own some sort of radiation protection gear.
Swamp City: Located on the edge of the Desert Colony, Swamp City is around where Mississippi used to be. Probably one of the tougher towns in the new world, and also the biggest. This is were most of the central alliances are set up.
Calligar City: Calligar City is located on the Desert and Second Hand border. The second biggest city after Swamp City, this town is set on trade from the Merchants who came across the desert and the hunters and herders from the mountains and forests.
Mongomery: Mongomery is a city in the Eastern part of the new world, up into Sea Colony territory, but still close enough to the Desert Colony to get some extra radiation. This small town is set up on alliances, and is a cross point to all cities in the West from the Sea Colony.
Darshville: Located in the Sea Colony, the biggest city in that colony. This town specializes with doctors and scientists who want to help find a way to make contaminated water safe to drink.
Tailsen: Located on the Forest and Second Hand colony border, this is a small city usual taken up by merchants, missionaries, and hunters who want to make their way through the Desert to Swamp or Calligar city, and into the Sea Colony.
Commeron: Located in what used to be Arizona, this is a herding and travel town in Desert Colony territory. Many merchants cross from this town to Calligar or Swamp City. If you want to make it across the desert alive, you'd want to stop here on your way through. The Colorado river, altered in its path by bombings, runs a few miles away from the city, and is so far clear of conamination.
Arthvul: Located on the Sea and Second Hand colony border, this town specializes in lakes and caves. Most missionaries are stationed around this area, along with hunters and gunners, and a few stray doctors and scientists. Unofficialy, this has been self-proclaimed the capital of the new world.

Username: Blind Prophet
Name: Atrec Damir Shirleton
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Nickname: Atec, Damir
Personality: Atrec is an antisocial person who just wants to be left alone. He isn't very trusting, and would much rather slit someone's throat then have a nice conversation with them. Even as distrusting as he is, there are a few that can break his barriers and get to the true Artec inside. He always has his guard up, and is quick to question someone's motives with his sharp mouth when he isn't being silent and unresponsive.
History: Artec was born in one of the worse cities, and grew up knowing what the price of living was. He grew up an orphan, but was quick to choose the path of a scavenger when he was old enough. Artec grew up independent, and wanted his life style to keep that as its base. As a scavenger he quickly gave into a violent manner, matching his solitary personality, making him a dangerous opponet and a great friend.
Description: Artec has light skin, but because he is always out in the radiation and sunlight it has gone a deep tan. And even though he grew up in the slums of the new world, he has the looks of a better off person, with sandy brown hair and dark green eyes. His clothing is thick and layered to protect himself from radiation and sunlight as well as enemy attacks. A thick bandana is tied around the lower have off his face to keep from breathing toxic fumes instead of a gas mask, and his knife is in a leather seath at his waist.

Name: Kasrrin Annabelle Magerine
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Nickname: Kasri, Anna
Personality: Kasri is a charming, kind girl, at least thats what she wants everyone to believe. Behind her sweet looks and kind eyes is a violent, tricky girl who can seemingly be afraid of nothing. Quick minded and nimble, she has learned to outpace and out think her opponets who expected her to be just another pretty face. Even though, this facade is just a mask hiding the real, swett girl inside.
History: Kasri learned at an early age how to take care of and defend herself. Living as an orphan in the desert region of her colony made her become a strong and mature girl at a young age. As a child she was quick to steal, cheat, and lie and earned herself a reputation as a distrusting little varmint. This too effected how she grew, and has made her a little more mature and serious that expected off her age.
Description: Kasri is a small and compact girl for her age, though to enables her to be quick and light on her feet. With brown hair and tan skin it would be easy to find her in relation with the desert people of her colony, but her green eyes mark her also from the better off colonies and cities. Kasri, as an orphan, has scavanged several layers of protective clothing, but does not own any weapons or any radation protection gear such as boots and a gas mask.

Name: Joseph Alexander Taskeri
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Nickname: Jared, Jay, Jayrin
Personality: Jayrin has a calm, cool outlook on life and takes his time whenever he can. Even so, at a moment's notice he could turn into a brutal and protective person who wouldn't be afraid to kill a man for making a wrong move. As a claimed 'missionary' he tries to keep peace, and usually accomplishes this motion with the people he meets. He is friendly, somewhat kind person, yet has a darker, harder side he doesn't like to talk about.
History: Joseph is younger than most missionaries, and is a more violent one. Jayrin's mother died when he was 3, so he was raised by his slaver father who taught him the tricks of the trade. Because of his father's calling, he moved around alot and became dependent on himself for what he needed, not trusting anyone. When he was 18, his Father was killed in a fight against a hunter. For a while Jayrin continued on as a Slaver. After several fights though, one in which he earned the scar over his eye, he decided to move on and become a missionary. It was at this time he took to drinking, while he headed back to Swamp City. When he became a full-fledged missionary though, he quit drinking, but even after he stayed in a dazed/hazed state.
Description: Though young, Jayrin has an older, gruff look about him that can be both intimidating and nice. He has ruffled black hair that it is unkept, and usually wears just as unkept clothing. Jayrin has bright blue eyes and tan skin, which open to the harmful rays of the sun have made a dark, sandy color. As a past Slaver he has his fair share of scars, but his most evident scar is a long cut over his left eye. When he needs to, he wears radiation protective gear, but he always has a gas mask and his rifle handy.

Gender:
Male
Age: (12-27)
25
Nickname:
Liam, and hardly ever refers to himself as William.
Personality: (3 sentences minimum)
Liam is a very, almost far too optimistic individual. He's often cheery and a bit odd, talking swiftly and always grinning. However this outwardly happy person is actually covering up his lonely inside. He mourns for his family, the loss of his fiancé and mother due to contaminated water. But he thought that they would want him to go on, to make it through and survive in a brand new world, as scary as it is. And so he does, trying to brighten anyone's day with the quickest witty remarks and sense of humor. There is one thing to keep in mind, though. He is a merchant, and at that, has his way of making a lie so he can get a quick buck or better offer.
History: (3 sentences minimum)
Liam's father died near the start of the end, and he was given the responsibility of caring for her in the chaotic times. It was certainly not easy work. But after the worst of it had passed, he and his mom met up with a few hold good friend - someone Liam had always had an attraction to. And with that, he swore to always keep her safe with him. The proposal was short and to the point, she accepted, simple as that. But it didn't last long. He went out from their rather shabby shelter, acquired some water that he believed was clean. Far from it.
Since his mother and would be wifes death, Liam traveled, and soon decided to take on the role of a merchant - one he didn't mind, but every now and then, he can't help but think about the two he let die, something he believed was his fault and will never forgive himself for.
Description: (3 sentences minimum)
Liam is about 5 foot 7 inches, with deep brown eyes and short sandy blonde hair. His face has a bit of a stubble, that's slightly thicker at his chin. Hes well built with strong arms and a sturdy chest. He usually wears a grungy shirt, dark colored jeans and very worn out black converse. But he has a signature black jacket, one that distinguishes him from any other merchants.

{Accepted. ^^ But, just as a reminder to everyone: this is semi lit. It will be expected that when we begin to roleplay there would be at least 3-5 sentences per post.}
