The infected struck in the year 2018, 6 years later the human race is almost gone, the infected roam outside. Now what remains of the human race is crammed into a walled off city. It's prewar name is unknown. It is now known only as The Colony. The conditions for most people are poor, rations are small, and they are cut. Most these people are known as the barriers, mainly because they live on the border of the city, inside the first wall, outside the fort wall. The colony is ran by a private force of armed guards and private owners.
Classes
-travelers. (People who have been on the outside and have to be integrated into the Colony.)
-Barriers. (Lowest rank, given poor jobs with minimal food. Many times they will be forced to do work that prewar would not be legal, other times just doing any job they can get to have a meal or to a day. These people got in for free and are forced to earn their keep.)
-Soldiers. (The private military of the Colony. Well armed, well fed, and well trained. Going into a fight with these soldiers normally ends in death for the opposing side.)
-Forters. (These people live inside the fort walls. They live a life of luxury an wealth. It is believed they payed their way in in the beginning. They cover jobs of lawyers, Office workers, or any other safe duty inside the fort walls. They rarely leave the fort walls.)
-District officers. (District officers have several jobs. The main is to keep the barriers in line. Their is one for every district, and Co Officers for Barrier districts. There's a total of 7 barrier district, each with about 60-100 civilians in each. These people are to show no mercy when enforcing the law.)
-Governors. (This small group of people help run the city, they act as judges, military officers, and basically every other position of power. Even looking at them wrong is punishable by torture.)
-Ozmon. (The creator of the colony, and head of the military force. It is believed he was a general back before the events of the dead took place. His word is law, disobey him and punishment is guaranteed. Few people ever see him, Some Governors have seen him. He gives commands from his private estate in the center of the fort over radio commands to some governors and soldiers. Walking on to his estate with out permission no matter class is punishable by death.)

RP notes:
-The fort wall is a well constructed wall with sniper nest covering the tops and a no mans land dividing the fort wall and the barriers city. in this no mans land their is barbed wire, bear traps, and a bunch of other surprises to keep illegal traffic out.
-the outer wall is run down, it's strongest points are what is left of the original fortified wall from when the colony was being built. Other points consist of tall electric fences, sealed buildings, and debris.
-All characters that join will be barriers when they join. Changing classes is still to be decided.
-Character applications are to be done in the form of an interview.
-Barriers can be either living in an apartment or on the streets. Those found in quarantined buildings will tracked down and arrested.
-(more may be added, think distopia when RPing)
