Would anyone be interested in an RP centered around Metahumans/Superheros during or immediately after the apocalypse?

The general idea thus far is that some kind of apocalypse happens(unsure of what at the moment) and depending on the results of the IC, we would either play through the progression of the apocalypse to start off, or we could begin about two weeks after the end. It would be about the heroes of the now fallen world struggling to survive, becoming leaders of their own civilizations or razing others. It would be about choosing sides in a struggle for power, and force our characters to think about what it really means to be called a hero.

Anyone interested?

Am I right in saying that this is set in an original universe rather than Marvel, DC, etc.?

I have been thinking of exploring something with superheroes that "happened" with the passage of Comet Hale-Bopp. I like your idea.

Also I like your Dr. Tachyon avy (I'm half way done with Wild Cards and considering purchasing Aces High).

You are correct indeed. If it was set in Marvel or DC the existence of characters like Franklin Richards would make apocalypse a non-issue.

Thank you. Also, I highly, HIGHLY, recommend Aces High. IMO it's better than the first one, and the Yeoman and Fortunato stories are a lot more interesting.

So, would you guys prefer the roleplay beginning as the apocalypse is actively happening, or two weeks in the aftermath?

I would like to do the beginning as the apocalypse beginning so we can feel out how our charas were in the world before it happened and also put them in scenarios such as they failed to stop it or didn't bother to help so the public eye is more clear on each instead of in just a flashback or prologue

I could be interested, with a more involved setting. I personally would like to have the game set after the cataclysm, and have it something of a point of mystery to discover each others' lives prior to the event.

Hmm now I see both sides as valid options I'm down with whatever personally.

I would prefer to deal with the effects of the apocalypse after it happened, rather than dealing with events as they happen. But either way is completely fine with me.

To be honest, if it was even 2 weeks after it had happened I'm not sure that any settlements or anything would have even been built. This is assuming the apocalypse came about because of some sort of nuclear war of course. If it had, then a year or so might be more appropriate for settlements having already been built. But it's your RP, I don't want to seem like I'm forcing my opinion on you so just disreguard this if you'd prefer 2 weeks.

Well, I was thinking of 'Settlements' as more sort of pre-Apoc places going under new names. It would be like a group of people moving into Logan Airport and hastily building barricades and stuff.

So, it's clear that everyone wants Post Apocalypse. But, in regards to the question about, what time period would you guys most prefer? Sometime between two weeks and year, please.
