EDIT: Woah doggies, let's throw the brakes on this thing. I've got plenty of potential partners for this shindig at this point in time. Still interested in roleplaying with me? Feel free to shoot me a PM with your idea or greeting. I'd loved to hear from you; just understand I will likely not be interested in doing the below.
Cheers!
For posterity:
I'm sure nobody here is unaccustomed to post-apocalyptic roleplay. You know, duking it out with desert nomads ala Mad Max. Laying waste to Super Mutants with Laser Gatling Guns or fighting off hordes of zombies with broomsticks and sledgehammers. The stereotypical stuff, right?
I'm looking for something post-apocalyptic in nature. However, I'm shying away from the grandiose expectations of Mad Max 'tank of juice' tropes, silly mutants and boring zombies. I'm looking for survival as stated in the prefix. Two people meeting, learning how to survive and thriving in a world that has turned upside down from an event. What is this world? What was the event? Since you've asked:
The roleplay would take place six hours after the beginning of World War III. Russia and the United States initiated a nuclear exchange among themselves. Yet, no nukes fell. There were no mushroom clouds or cratered holes in the ground. Instead, the Earth became oddly silent as machines began to die. Everything from the aeroplane to the electric razor stopped working at precisely 1836EST.
More frighteningly for the survivors, almost every form of 'modern' mechanical technology has ceased functioning as well. Police officers, attempting to combat the early signs of looting and violence, have quickly learned their stockpiles of firearms and tear gas are no longer working. Without easy means of defense, whole cities are being brought to the torch by mass hysteria and fear. Husbands trying to light their grills to cook spoiling food have noticed that their lighters do not light and their Zippos do not Zipp.
I'm looking for a woman to join my character in a world like this. Interested? Send me a PM. You can also reply to the post, but I'll just wind up PMing you afterwards. Please, share your ideas with me on how this idea could be made even better.
Cheers!
