I'm in if you'll have me, and I was hoping we'd start in Russia or the Eastern Block, or in South Africa >_>
EDIT: So if I get this right: We're in a world that just exploded, reassembled, and now there's zombies and all other sorts of creatures? How did the climate change because of this?


That's the super short of it, yes.

And think about it, most of our climate is affected by geography, atmospheric patterns, and so on. It's safe to say the climate will shift considerably, though I may or may not bother researching the weather to get a basic idea of it, or just bullshit it myself because magic! How much will it change? Aside from the air feeling kindof thin for a couple of days, It's not high on my list at the moment, I'm focusing on the geography of the starting Chunk and getting everything organized into a way that it can start off.

Once I've got those bits finished in my mind I'll probably throw in some weather... Or, ya know, if you feel like it, you could look into stuff like that and play weatherman for the RP!
Heh, whataya know! Chance decided we'd start in a Yellow stone chunk. looks like you get your national park!
I'm fly with most anything that goes, really. I'm up for the Day One idea, as it'd be interesting to see the characters' reactions to the transformations as well as how they cope with the cataclysm.

Though if we are in a city chunk and survived, wouldn't that mean pretty much the rest of the people on that city chunk survived as well? We could be facing a group of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people if we choose to appear on an actual "city". Why not a National Park of sorts?


Mostly because a fat load of em would be getting squished, hence the mention of 'extremely lucky survivors'. Just because the chunk didn't split into dozens more and demolish doesn't mean everything 'on it' stayed safely intact, not to mention dying from injuries shortly after, or from someone else 'snapping' in the face of the world ending, or maybe getting stuck 'between chunks'.

Though you do raise a good point there! I might compile a list of a few each of cities, national parks, or other interesting places, and see which one chance chooses for us... Each one has their exciting potential for things we'll have to cope with, some more than others perhaps. Further suggestions for other places to add to the list will be appreciated as well.

Aside from that, with this many endorsements I'd say it's definitely going to be starting on Day one!

Yeah, I'm still thinking on it. Over-all, he'll try to be peaceful and stay in place, but his demonic side and angelic side will constantly be warring, and he'll definitely go through different transformations and developments as the RP continues on. A lot of mental/inner conflicts, as well. Alistaire, the priest, is generally a very calm, level-headed, and almost somber person, with a quiet voice that enraptures those he preaches to, so it'd be cool to see him freak out as he turns into a demon, and then into an angel, and then a warped mutant of the two, and generally be torn between the two sides, lol.

Day one sounds good.


I'm sure he'll be an entertaining addition to the group!

Personally, I'm already excited to see the kinda of ideas people might come up. I've never been picky about the required content of CSes, and in an RP like this Vague CSes can have their own charms, as long as they get updated as relevant. The earliest obstacle I fore-see is devising the reason they are at whichever place the RP starts off in, but that can be solved in the OC!

With that in mind I say, Feel free to create CSes to your own preferences with any information you feel should be relevant, as long as the basic info is included, as well as some things that may be immediately apparent upon meeting the Character. Name, Appearance, things like that. A hint to what changes they might be facing could be nice, though ultimately optional, but if you feel like your idea might be a bit risky feel free to PM me about it and I'll take a look.

And lastly before I head off to bed for the night, Multiple characters are acceptable, though I recommend setting it up as having one primary group character, and any others being secondary/background characters. You can also design NPCs yourselves just fine! Particularly since some may be lasting Antagonist's in the right conditions, it'll be good to keep track of them.

I remember you too, Shoryu xD It's been like thirty thousand years, man!


or something like that XD all it took was a cataclysm to put us in the same thread again!

<Snipped quote by Shoryu>

Well, you've commented about their being demons and such, yes? I was thinking that my character may be affected by the magic in the air, in such a way that it attempted to warp him into a demon, but, at the same time, it wanted to warp him into what his beliefs had warranted him - as such, an angel. Due to this, he'll be a hybrid of the two. I'm thinking that the things that makes it obvious would be one black wing and one pure white wing, and horns, maybe. Otherwise, he'd be a regular-looking human, albeit maybe his eyes would be a different color.

Picture.

As for powers, I'm still thinking, but my current thought process is leaning towards Holy/Demonic magic, with him having to balance the two so that he doesn't become an imbalanced, mindless fiend.


hmmm, well, the majority of changes will be thoroughly non-human, but just like there will be a rare few who somehow manage to not be affected, there can be those who were affected and ended up with much more human-like results.

On that note, it makes for an interesting concept as long as the standard ideas of avoiding OPness keep functioning, though everyone essentially starting from scratch for their various 'new abilities' renders pretty much all of them un-OP XD

It'd be interesting if further changes happened, or perhaps un-happened, leaning in one direction or the other, depending on how much he uses, or doesn't use, or balances those magics, or maybe depending on how aggressive/defensive/supportive he acts with them.

On that note, I think there's plenty of people to get things kicked off! Tommorrow I'll work on refining the OC's information, I'm a bit busy today, and it may take another day or 2, interuptions can happen.

In the mean-time, if anyone has opinions I'd like to hear them.

Mostly in the vein of whether or not you'd like to start on 'the first day' when everyone'd still be human and only the most quickly changing would start to show signs already, and likely be starting relatively alone or maybe luckily near eachother. Or the end of the first week, where the quickest ones will probably be done and others will be showing signs, and there will have been time for everyone to stumble across the other players, group up, and try to find a good place to hole up for a while.

I'd also love to hear suggestions for a 'city chunk' we could start in, or near. If not i'll just pick one at random and hunt down a google map of it to tinker with.
Very interested, mang!


Frettzo!... I remember yoooouuuu :P
I'm interested in a preacher/priest-like character that may or may not be slowly turning into a Nephilim.


That 'is' certainly a possibility for someone to be and some of them are liable to have survived as well, though we all know how dangerous religious types can get around Cataclysms! in-fact, a religious type being around would be prime real-estate for stirring up trouble.

Though you may have to define your interpretation of Nephilim. like, as a species with certain very clear traits/abilities differentiating them from normal humans? or are you implying it like some form of holy creature with 'powers from god'? XD
d'awwwww, ok XD
This seems /extremely/ interesting!


hurrah! A third. We can probably start with a small group, if everyone wants to get right on to it, or wait more.
Bump!
@Shoryu aaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

You're back ; w ; Yes, you were the spazzy Joltik! I'm addicted to hardstyle because of on of your posts

Man I remember the weirdest parts about roleplays

I'll See about getting an OOC up then, we should have a nice group for it.


BZZZZTT *SPAZES THE FUCK OUT!* Yep that's me

And you're welcome.

Maybe I'll bring him back >3>

also, Fun-fact, Apocalypse does not mean 'end of the world' but rather 'revelation of secrets'... What most people mean when they say Apocalypse is actually 'Cataclysm'.

*claps hands together and pulls away a rainbow* The more you know!
