The Meek Have Inherited the Earth.

The world as it was is no more.
It was lost to history who attacked first, but nuclear war was unavoidable. The whole world was affected drastically. Over the last hundreds of years, civilization has risen from the ashes in a crude new form. The world is a sad place for the most part. The climates are all messed up; Africa's a tundra, Australia's a rainforest, and Canada is a desert wasteland. The only thing holding the world together is the Meek. They rose from the ashes of humanity, mutated beings with mutated minds. They inherited the world from the humans who destroyed it, and rebuilt civilization. Until the humans began crawling from the earth like rats. You see, nuclear war had been anticipated for years, and some people constructed bunkers.
You are from one of these bunkers. Originally housing a small family and their neighbours, a full human civilization now populates this underground haven. The doors have not opened since the war, but for the first time in loving memory, a murder is committed. The suspects are a group of young adults, who all had connections to the victim. Unable to decide who has committed the crime, they are all sentenced to wander the earth. You and the other suspects are forced out of the bunker, and into the harsh post apocalyptic world called Earth.

RULES:

No overpowering your character. They've lived in a bunker their whole life.

Always run important things past me.

My word is law.

If you have an idea for a location, race, NPC, or a plot arc, PM me about it. This game is highly customizable.

If you think I'm doing something incorrectly, please call me out on it. This is my first time being a GM.

Quick question. What technological era are we in for this rp? Like modern day, kinda futuristic?

@BKburke It is futuristic. However, humanity has been smashed into dust so it's difficult to say. We will come to a laboratory where there is futuristic tech, but other than that it's mostly scrap tech. Think Fallout and Mad Max kind of stuff.

Ok I'll get my cs up after work today.

Okay excepted. (( kind of reminds me of the 100))

Let me know if this is okay..

@luclovers


Name: Ezra Jonas Collins

Age: 22

Skills: Survival- Knowing how to hunt, make fires, etc.
Shooting Skills- Good with firearms, especially Shotguns, Assault Rifles, and Pistols.
Pain Tolerance- Ability to endure a somewhat medium level of pain.

Bio/Personality: Ezra is a cynical smart-ass, yet brave person. He can be a kind person if that person gets close to him, which he is afraid of. Because to him, making friends gives him a reason to mourn because they might die. Honestly, he feels like mourning and being sad and miserable is a sign of weakness, so he tries to hide much of his emotions in sarcasm and jokes.

Not a lot is known about Ezra's past, besides the fact that he was born in the bunker. His parents are Dean and Alyssa Collins. They taught him how to survive, when the bunker opens and the survivors go out in the wasteland. At age 12, his mother died. She was sick, and the bunker didn't have the supplies to cure her sickness. Ezra was devastated, but his father went into a very deep depression. His father started to drink a lot, and Ezra would have to take care of his father. His father became a drunk, and Ezra had to become a man. At age 15, Ezra found his father, dead. He committed suicide. Ezra was crushed by this. He then started shutting everyone out, and became a loner.

Other: Ezra is equipped with a Beretta M9. Also, he is very interested in vehicles, especially muscle cars.

@CallMeChaotix accepted.

Is it okay if I add some new things? Like, maybe giving him a new wep?

@CallMeChaotix There will be chances to get weapons early on.

The game starts as the players are first leaving the bunker, they wouldn't have anything too major. I'm fine with a gun, as they have them in the bunkers for policing and sport, but he wouldn't have any hard artillery.

Note for everyone

The game starts when the elders of the bunker are opening the doors for the first time since they were closed. They claim they are all leaving, but what really happens is the group of players will be sent out first, and the doors will close due to a malfunction, and the players will be trapped out in the harsh wasteland alone to fend for themselves.

Finally makes form***
