Inspired by the Sumatran, Thai and Japanese tsunami/earthquake disasters and the stories of survival that came out of them
I usually write these pretty short stories about my ideas when I put up an interest check. To show what I envision the RP to be about.
But in all honesty I can't for this idea. It may still be too soon for these disasters, and the loss of life and property that came with them. Lives in the millions were lost, people missing. Husbands, wives, children, sons and daughters. Some of us live in landlocked areas, and will probably never know the devastation of a tsunami strike.
But I propose we try to imagine it, in our own way. No heroes, no villains, no people trying to get rich off suffering, or supermen who just got swept 3 miles from where you were with the ability to wade back in hours.
In a nutshell we will pick a location that is likely to be hit by a earthquake/tsunami event, RP the days before leading up to the event itself. RP the actual event, what happens to our characters when the waters hit and likely destroyed what you might own or where you might work. Then after the waves, RP how we might go about survival until help arrives. Did you lose your family? Are they still alive? Can you find them? Were you a lone hiker, and now can't get home? Were you a policeman or a fireman and now you need to figure out how to help?
We can discuss things like Character sheets and things like that later. I right now just want to see if there is interest in the idea.
