It is the year 4468 AD. The world has been plunged into a global deluge that has swallowed most of the land on Earth. After a long struggle to survive the destructive weather across the planet for over 1,000 years, man has crept back into the spotlight.

The greenhouse effect has finally abated for the most part, leaving the world with few cities in the wake of the abominable storms and heat. In an effort to reclaim the world's losses, the remaining nations work together to salvage what remains of their world in hopes of survival for their people.

The change of the planet has also resulted in the shifting of the axis, changing life drastically as creatures evolve and mutate from the final war of nuclear proliferation. This war, the Ragnarök War, marked a new age of Earth.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

In this RP, the planet's land mass has dwindled down to a mere 14% of the world. Only regions that were once mountains remain and most of life is based on the sea. Everybody works at something in this day and age to survive, be it a desalinizer, a salvager, or a hunter.

Desalinizers work to filter salt from the water to provide to the people, salvagers gather what they can from deep under the sea or in the ruins on land to build from, and hunters must seek places to build cities, fight off the wildlife, and protect the people from raiders.

Raiders are fringe groups of pirates who plunder cities and wish to revive the old ways of war using thermo-nuclear weapons to take the world over for themselves. Other raider groups simply wish to take what they please just to survive or make good trade money disguised as salvagers.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Name:
Age:
Species: (Anthros exist due to mutation. Cyborgs also exist.)
Occu: (You don't have to use the listed occupations above. They're just common jobs.)

Weight:
Height: (Nothing that over 7'0")
Build: (Slender, Trim, Burly, Hulkish, Hefty, Overweight)
Strength: (How strong your character is not determined by build.)

Hours On: (See rule 3 for details.)

=======================================================================

Rules -

1. Follow the general RP etiquette rules, no killing, godmodding, bunny jacking, or unbalancing characters.

2. When making a character, please don't make the useless stereotypical darkly dressed, very tall, pretty strong, silent, mellow-dramatic mercenary. Once again, no Mary Sue characters. If you're really lost on how good you think your character is, go take the Mary Sue Test. (Note, this is not a requirement, just a thing to save you the trouble of making a raging stereotypical character.)

3. For the love of god. If you're going to join, POST AT LEAST ONCE A DAY! You cannot begin to imagine how tired I am of making an RP and every mysteriously vanishes, visits their relative across the country, taking finals, mid terms, bitten by poisonous reptiles, or whatever during the climax of the situation. If you are going to not post once a day, notify me NOW. Not 5 days after you disappear and apologize. I'm sorry to those who I may be indirectly fielding this to, but rules are rules. We all want a smooth flowing RP that's not bogged down because we're worried about somebody who hasn't posted for a while and everyone else has. If you REALLY need to, post what hours you're on Two Kinds beneath your character. Once again, do not join if you can't keep up or have a lovely record of conveniently disappearing during the RP. Rant/rule over.

Why am I the only anthro?

Also, is there any prejudice against anthros?

Ehm, coincidence? Well in the game there is no considerable amount of prejudice. Most are use to seeing mutants or anthros. There tend to be some people who make racial jokes, but nothing that would warrant negative reactions. (Most of the time.)

Accepting any more after you started? Missed this one, and the Dieselpunk RP has kinda died. I haven't seen the GM in awhile.

Sure, you can join in too. In this one, I'm allowing as many to join as possible. Of course, they have to be able to keep up with all the people.

Also . . .

I need to add another character

Name: Juno Dee
Age: 34
Species: Mutant
Occu: Entei Officer

Weight: 80 Kg
Height: 166 Cm
Build: Chubby
Strength: Under par

He'll be a character I'll introduce later.

Name: Leonard ("Leon") Schneider
Age 38
Species: River-Otter Anthro
Occupation: Leon is the closest thing to a Politician the Post-War world has. He leads his "Tribe" of refugees and scavengers, dispatching and hiring Hunters to find their next resting stop, until they find a permanent settlement.

Weight: 172 lbs
Height: 6'0"
Build: Husky
Strength: You don't want to get punched by him, he's got enough strength to make his weight work for him, but he's got little stamina, and no combat training.

Hours On: 3-5 most days, then after seven most every day.

Leon's Father, Ulysses Branford Schneider, was a General abroad in the War, and when the chain of command broke during the Nuclear proliferation, he returned home to help bring peace to his wartorn country.

Two decades later, Ulysses barrier against foreign influence has crumbled, and the country begins to fall apart. His son, Leon, takes up the position of State leader, and scrambles together his countries survivors into a Nomadic Tribe.
