Alright, welcome, first of all. What's this about? Well here's the post from the interest check to give you an idea.

[hider=Youmight'vealreadyreadthis]If you've ever seen any movie/game/series where the world is desolate and everyone is dead, then you're halfway to what this RP is about. This is set a few centuries after the end, where society has somewhat bounced back, and things are functioning again, to some degree. Almost nothing resembles the old world, but the mail works, kids go to school, and you do not have to worry about roving gangs of bandits on motorcycles. At least not on a day to day basis. In other words, things are relatively fine, at least for a substantial amount of people.

That said, everything is layered in dust and rust, and there are plenty of ruins and bombed out cities, and buildings covered in vegetation, to the point where a great deal of land is still far from recovery. That doesn't stop people from living there however, and cities built literally on the ruins of other cities are not uncommon. Other tracts of land are covered in chemical spills, baked in radiation, patrolled by killer robots, occupied by sentient fungi, claimed by zombies, or trapped in a temporal flux, rendering them fully uninhabitable for the time being. For most people anyways.

So apparently life in a world which is trying to kill all humans is very hard. Which is why humanity evolved superpowers. Several centuries of living in a radioactive hellhole has caused most survivors to develop superhuman abilities. Those who didn't and managed to survive anyways, have at least become skilled enough at surviving that they still count as superhuman. Bullet-dodging, walk-on-walls levels of superhuman. To keep up with the people who shoot fire from their hands and lasers from their eyes.

To recap: Civilization is no longer in any danger of going extinct, but the world is still pretty screwed up. On the other hand, most people are badass enough to deal with it. Its a fairly tongue-in-cheek setting, not entirely serious, where pretty much anything goes as long as its cool. I've got some plot hooks planned, but nothing to stop people from just doing their own thing.

So, anyone interested?[/hider]

What next? Lets go over the rules rather quickly.

[hider=Darules]0.) Be cool like Fonzie.

1.)There are no stupid questions.

2.) I get the final say on what is and is not acceptable.
2.1) What you want is probably acceptable, and if you're really doubtful, ASK!

3.) That said, explicitly sexual posts are absolutely off bounds. The only real taboo in place.
3.1)If it couldn't happen on a daytime TV channel, it couldn't happen here.
3.2)Take it to PM's if you really want to do that.

4) Don't be boring.
4.1) Powers that completely trivialize the plot are boring.
4.2) Godmodding is boring.
4.3) Oneliners are also boring. A little bit of effort in making a post descriptive is appreciated.

5) I'll reserve the right to add more rules for any reason I'd like.
5.1) I probably won't, though, because I don't have any good reasons to.
5.2) Yet.[/hider]

Yeah, most of them are self-evident, but let's just put them out there for the sake of not being a totally arbitrary and fascist GM. Oh, not having misunderstandings. That too.

Now, Character Sheets:

[hider=CS]
[b]Name[/b]:
[b]Age:[/b]
[b]Gender:[/b]
[b]Appearance:[/b][Descriptions are fine, pictures are also fine. Whatever lets us know what you look like]
[b]Personality:[/b] [What do you act like? Likes? Dislikes? Oh, you know the drill]
[b]History:[/b] [Where have you been, done, etc. You know. That stuff.]
[b]Objectives:[/b][What does he/she really, really want? World peace, money, fame, a quiet home in the prairie?]
[b]Skills/Powers:[/b][What can you do? What are you really good at? What are your powers, if you have any?]
[b]Profession:[/b][What's your job?]
[/hider]

Right. You probably want to hit "View raw" at the top of my post and copy this from there, unless you don't want to have the lackluster formatting or want to add your own. It doesn't really matter anyways.
