It was like a switch was flipped, a switch that has never come back on. It was a global black out, they energy of power stations, generators even batteries just didn't work. Like something was absorbing all its energy and allowing none to escape. After electricity stopped flowing for a few hours, then a few days, another daunting discovery was made. Gunpowder lost its potency, so to speak. Police, thugs, soldiers and citizens pulled the triggers on their guns to find them only to hiss at them and just burn out, no matter the caliber, no matter the size. The era of firearms and certain explosives had gone out with a hiss.
As the years after the change went by, the world descended into basic, savage fighting with the passing of time. Famine and plague came shortly after the change at the breakdown of infrastructure and sanitation, millions died in droves. There were those who survived, though they were assaulted by the fear of starvation, hounded by bands of wandering cannibals or stalked by crueler men with their dark intentions.
As the decades went by, in the place of the United states of America sprang small enclaves and territories of survivors that brought organisation and security to the peoples under them. From sea to shining sea, it was becoming harder and harder to avoid the warlords and kings that filled the gap the US once filled.
Some of these fledgling nations were more dominant than others, with grand plans and desires, they annexed land and fought battles. Now the time is coming, thirty years after the change, when these nations will compete and fight for dominance.
If you've read this far, first of all thank you. If you're a fan of the Emberverse series of S.M Stirling, then you're in for a treat. The setting of this Rp is thirty years after the change, an event that made electricity, engines and firearms non-functioning and practically useless. The world has descended into a chaotic realm where medieval warfare dominates this post-apocalyptic world. This Rp will focus on you, if you decide to participate, forging a post-apocalyptic nation and having dealings and interactions with other player's nations. If you're interested still, then state your intent and take a look at the various sheets that you'll have to fill in and prepare.
