August 22nd, 2030

The Earth has begun a rather in depth tilt on its axis, as well as a wobble in orbit. It is expected that the next Little Ice Age will begin soon, and it is expected to end in around June 2032, bringing some heavy snows to the colder climate countries, and light sprinkles in the warmer ones.

September 28th, 2030

The tilt in the Earth is beginning to show more, and it is believed that the LIA will be a little heavier, and longer than expected.

December 15th, 2030

The Earth's tilt has become immense, as well as its wobble. The Earth is falling of Orbit, ans straying from the sun. NASA has been working hard on trying to figure out a way to stop this event, or if it is a natural phenomenon, and will digress, until it is back in Orbit.

...

That was one year ago. The Phenomenon has digressed, and stopped, but it's clear that the earth is not going back to its position in the orbit. The sun barely touches earth, and the sky is a deep gray, and we are unable to travel in the night, which now hits at somewhere around 4:00. We are barely surviving, having to rely on snow buried remnants of towns to find food, sometimes digging 6-7 feet to even get to a window. We are barely surviving, but this, is not living. It is slowly dying. Our hopes. Dreams. And way of life.

Staying moving is our only hope. It keeps us warm, for a time, before we have to settle to make a fire, and eat. The average human lifespan is now 60 years, and it won't get better. The equator means nothing, as we are so far away, it barely gets hit. The world has no hope, but maybe you do. Will your efforts be great, and worthwhile, or will they be futile.

Now what stands before you is a barren tundra, with hope on what lies ahead. Settlements, food, fire, a glimpse, of survival, of hope, of life. Now what lies behind you, is your past, your mistakes, your previous life, and your footprints in the snow...




OOC:

This is basically a post-apocalyptic RP, based on Earths next ice age. You will be playing a decently sized camp of survivors, struggling in the Arctic Deserts, scavenging for food, oil, and other people.

Just a FYI, your character can, and probably will die in the RP, do to cold, avalanches, hunger. So that means you must maintain your character, and make sure they eat, stay warm... and, well, stay away from avalanches.




Rules:

I know, I know, I hate them to, but they have to be used to maintain the RP.

- My word is final
- So not post Character in the Char tab, until approved by me
- Keep OOC in OOC
- Romance and that stuff is allowed, but, PG-13
- Do not bash on other people's posts, or ideas. Basically, respect to everyone
- No God Modding, I.E. Having your character be resistant to cold, doesn't need food, and is not damaged by anything etc.
- Do not powerplay, I.E. Controlling someone else's character without their permission
- Standard Guild Rules Apply
- And lastly, have fun!

@AbysmalDemon Viola then.



Kito Umezawa

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Equipment: Old parka (starting to fall apart.), rusty ice pick, and a heirloom hunting knife which has slowly started to dull and rust.

Skills: Kito excels at tracking and hunting.

Personality: Kito is typically calm, cool and collected. His attitude towards others is similar to that of Earth's current state, quite icy. He tends not to communicate to the others in the camp unless absolutely neccesary, for he finds idle chatter to be pointless. Due to this, many view him as unapproachable and possibly hostile, of which is partially true; he is unapproachable. He takes his work seriously, and despite the near seclusive lifestyle he leads, everyone knows how important it is for an expedition to have him with them.

History: Pre-Ice Age

Kito comes from a family of assassins, highly trained and completely unheard of. Before the Ice Age, his family had amassed great wealth, and Kito was well on his way to becoming the prodigal heir to the family's fortune. Despite this though, he kept training himself, always looking for a way to improve and hone his skills even more. However, his father continued to barely acknowledge Kito's accomplishments or improvements. 'Be better.' was typically the response his father gave, even after completing the most difficult of assassinations. Days before the Ice Age came, Kito had begun to live his life of seclusion, cutting ties with his family. The last time he saw his parents was before heading to Russia on another assassination mission, little did he know that would be the last time he saw them.

Ice Age

It came quickly for Kito, he was barely able to register what happened. Luckily, he was in Russia when the Ice Age began, having gear already on-hand along with a week's worth of emergency rations. At first, the male thought he was in Russia while he was making an escape, however, as time went on and his rations were depleted, he realized the worst had happened; the Ice Age had come. He immediately went into survive mode, hunting what he could and making it stretch as long as he could. During one of his hunting outings, he came across an expedition that seemed to be hunting the same game he was. However, due to his tracking skills, Kito was the one who managed to find and kill the game before the group found him. After the leader of the expedition got into a debate with him, Kito decided to share the valuable resource with them. He also found it beneficial for him to travel with them back to their camp; his odds of surviving would increase with them. At first the camp was hesitant about him joining them, but he proved his worth several times with his skills.

A question for you my friends

When a character dies in an rp like this,does that mean we are left with only the option to leave the rp?

No, I should I have clarified that. You can create another char, which will come in the rp and find the group somehow. Or, if enough characters die, you may create another group with those users, with new characters.

I'm interested for sure. Would it be cool if I wrote a description instead of a picture though? I'm on my phone 99% of the time and I'm not really good at copy pasting things like urls. I'll make it work if not, just thought I'd ask.

It may help a little, but this is the Ice Age. I don't think your character is gonna be used to that.

Yes it's legit, but don't be OP about it. Your char will still need fire, and warmth, just not as often (but still in a relatively close time period)
