I have been inspired to create a survival Roleplay set within the universe and setting of The Last Of Us.
The Roleplay itself is initially set in California, and will revolve around a pair of survivalists who are united by causes that my partner and I so choose.
The two find themselves brought together by a common goal; reaching the San Francisco Safe Zone, which is situated on Alcatraz island.
Reports say that it is operated and controlled neither by Fedra or the rebellious Fireflies, but a splinter faction of the United States Army.
Supposedly, the zone houses not only civilian refugees and a division of the Army, but also a team of scientists who are said to be working to find a vaccine or immunity treatment for the Cordyceps brain disease.
With their goal set, the two straggling refugees will find themselves pitted against one danger after the next as they fight onward through hell and worse yet to find salvation in this damned world of monsters and men.
DATE AND INITIAL SETTING
The starting date of the RP will be in the Spring of 2035, so one full year after the events of The Last Of Us itself.
It will initially begin in Southern California in a location in which my partner and I will decide on.
From there we will work our way all the way up to San Francisco, and then onward through the city and to Alcatraz where the foresaid safe zone is at.
And from there, the adventure has truly only just begun.
PERSONAL REQUIREMENTS AND RULES
1. My Roleplaying style is 3rd person 95% of the time.
2. I Roleplay from standard Casual to low Advanced.
3. I ONLY ROLEPLAY IN THE FORUMS. (This is a non-negotiable term.)
4. I generally only Roleplay male characters.
5. While I do allow character relationships and love scenes, I prefer to keep it low key, i.e no smut or XXX material.
6. I am on here every single day all throughout the day.
7. I expect daily posting from my partner, even if you can only squeeze in one or two posts a day.
8. I am a very serious writer and Roleplayer, ergo I expect a partner that is equally serious and is equally as committed as I am. If you are someone who tends to drop out of Roleplays or has a very active and very overly busy real life, then turn back now.
GOALS AND DIRECTIONS OF THE ROLEPLAY
I truly wish for this Roleplay to contain themes, messages, outlooks, and realizations of both The Last Of Us and The Walking Dead.
Moments of fear will be countered by visions and realizations of hope, relief and relaxation will be shattered by loss and harsh lessons from reality, and touching moments of empathy and compassion will be met with hate and vengeance.
Even after our characters finally make it to Alcatraz, they will even then not truly be safe nor nestled in the warm arms of that which is haven. Survival will still be a necessity, and internal strife and conflict is inevitable in these harsh and insane times. Not to mention the radical dangers of the outside world which will claw away at the iron door of sanctuary.
I wish for this to be a long and deeply written and detailed Roleplay with a wide diversity of elements, themes, and plot paths.
