Apocalyptic, sci-fi and Old west rp.

Ok guys!! Here is the setting of this RP :D

It would be set on a giant island, mountains would surround the edge of the island. The center valley would be a giant desert, say the size of Western US (west coast to Wyoming/mid-texas), with a forest in the northeast. The names in parenthesis are just ideas for the names of the areas, feel free to come up with better ones. I will also write a post detailing the powers of the cult, but basically they would be similar, but not the same, to mutations from X-Men (teleportation, telekinesis, shooting energy, etc.).

The mini-city (Trinish): Northwestern area of the vast desert built around an oasis. The oasis is there because of the river that flows from the mountains into the forest. It would be a highly organized "cowboy" town. City-hall, bank, (small) research center, court, and lots of saloons. This city would be inhabited by descendants of the rich and powerful. They would use second stage werewolves as farmers ands laborers. Third stage werewolves would be the guards and "military" of the city. The people here would be more technologically advanced than the rest of the island, using more energy type weapons and defense than the Western town.

The classic Western town (Los Muerto): This would be on the plain in the southeast. Arid environment. The town would be based on the barter system. No real law system here. People here would raid tribes that existed around the land for food, goods, etc. They would also band together to raid caravans going from the mini-city to the forest. Weapons would be similar to weapons we have today, with personal modifications of course. Some of the more powerful people would have hybrid energy-material weapons because of raiding plus modifications.

The cult (Infinitus): Live in the mountains to the southwest in a fortress set up like a saloon. Basically a city inside the walls. The "bar" would be a row of buildings where people trained, ate, etc. The leader would most likely be in the back at the top using his/her magic to power the city while also distributing it to others. Hierarchical system: leader > "family" > elites > specialists > fodder. The leader would have mastered his/her powers over the last 500 years, can basically do anything. Family would be the ones first given the radiation magic. They are very knowledgable and the leader's personal guard. Elites would be highly trained in all fields of the radiation powers. Specialists would master one power, with basic control of other powers. Fodder would have basic knowledge of one to all of the radiation powers and are, well, fodder, laborers, and servants.

Werewolf society (The Great Forest): Exist in the forest on the northeastern part of the "country." The forest is the only area rich in natural resources. Many times people from other areas come to take these resources. The werewolves have become meta-gaurdians of the forest and wish to protect the natural balance of things. They have primitive traps set up, and their radiation has given them the ability to connect to nature. For example, they can feel when an outside threat enters the forest.

Please feel free to add on to this!

Hello guys! I'm new to forum RP, though I have played tabletop, mmo, and standard vidya rpg's my whole life. Valkyr, I love the twist in your characters' backgrounds. That's gonna be great to see develop.

Here is my character -

Name: Mayura
Animal: Peacock
Gender: Male

Feather & Eye Color: Standard peacock. Blue and green feathers, streaks of purple and brown. Golden "eyes" on the tail feathers. Eye color is pink (that of the lotus flower).

Hissatsu: Fire - Mayura "stares," with his tail flared, at an object or being. This causes the molecules in the object/being to vibrate to the point of bursting into flame. Drawback - all "eyes" must be staring at the object/being (unable to use Hissatsu while flying or if his tail cannot fully expose all "eyes").

Item: Golden necklace with an engraved Om symbol on an upside down triangle. This was given to him by his master, Paramatma. It is said to be created by the Supreme Personality of Godhead that enhanced the user in a unique way. This gives Mayura the ability to use the "eyes" on his tail to perceive through.

Personality: Extremely balanced. Anger, happiness, sadness, love, etc. have little affect on him. He is friendly, helpful, and knowledgable.

Background: He grew up in a distant land where money, Hissatsu, and strength were power. He lived in the forest with his parents. At a young age they knew that he had the powers of Hissatsu and sought the fabled master of Hissatsu. Upon finding him, Paramatma instantly knew the potential of young Mayura. After training for several years, Mayura's forest was attacked by a neighboring warlord, Masudeva, the reptile king. The student and master valiantly fought off the army for two days. On the third day Paramatma told Mayura to stay hidden in a nearby tree. He watched as Paramatma sat on the ground in a meditative position. The warlord was there personally that day. He asked the master if he had any last words. He replied, "The burning of a tree is not destruction, but the creation of new life." Masudeva then stabbed is tail through the neck of Paramatma. Mayura had never felt anger before, and cried out for the death of his master. When he awoke the forest was vaporized and only left charred ground for a few hundred yards in every direction of him. "What happened?" he asked. Remembering his master's last words he set out on a new life, vowing to return and bring peace and prosperity to all living creatures of his homeland.

Small update on Mayura's item :)

Animal Roleplay with items and superpowers idea.

KaelRavenheart brings up a good point. Unless the weapons were suited to animal bodies: mace type weapon attached to tail, extended claws off of wrist, horns on their head, etc.

Also I am interested, so I will post a character in the OOC.

Apocalyptic, sci-fi and Old west rp.

I am interested in this RP. For a time period, how about 500 years after the apocalypse. The plasma or laser technology could be produced in one mini-city that is based around a research center. The people who are there would be scientists who survived after the fall and started their own society. They create this technology to further advancement for life, possibly terraforming Earth to previous conditions. This would most likely be the society where the super rich people live. There are corrupt members of their society who sell/barter this technology to the highest bidders. The ones the technology is sold to would be part of the wild west town (~800 people). Then there would be the single building occupied by the cult who used radiation magic. This magic would be very elementalish and consumed the energy of the people using it. The last "society" would be the far off forest with the stage four werewolves. Since they have the traits of wolves and humans they would consider themselves superior creatures.

The mini-city: This would be in the middle of valley. There's the research center, occupied by scientists, surrounded by fortresses and castles, occupied by the rich people. The houses would be powered by the research center since it produces energy and technology. They would be guarded by the third stage slave werewolves. Second stage werewolves would be the farmers and laborers.

The "western" town: This would be on the plain south of the valley. Arid environment. The town would be based on the barter system. No real law system here. People here would raid tribes that existed around the land for food, goods, etc. I don't have much lore to go for this area. Feel free to elaborate.

The cult: The tower for the cult is in the mountains. The leader would most likely be at the top using his/her magic to power the tower and distributing it to others. Hierarchical system: leader > "family" > elites > specialists > fodder. The leader would have mastered their powers over the last 500 years, can basically do anything. Family would be the first ones to be given the radiation magic. They are very knowledgable and are also the leader's personal guard. Elites would be highly trained in all fields of the radiation powers. Specialists would master one aspect of the powers. fodder would have basic knowledge of one to all of the radiation powers and are, well, fodder, laborers, and servants. (This is my favorite aspect so far and I would most likely create a character in this area of the RP)

Werewolf society: Exist in a forest on the opposite side of the plain from the mountains. They believe they are superior to humans and rivals of the cult. Having lived in secret for so long they have had much time to plan and form a small army. Their time to strike is near. With their knowledge they have created weapons and armor suited for their strength and agility. Because of the radiation in their blood, the weapons and armor would be endowed with special enhancements (example: wearable wolverine like claws can poison, or armor resists energy attacks, etc.).

Would love to get this started!! PM me if you would like

[Casual to Advanced] 1x1 Interest Check

Hey Zel... Link!

Just joined this forum and have never participated in a play-by-post or forum rpg. I have played tabletop rpg's (D&D, hero's unlimited, etc.), console/pc rpg's, and mmorpg's. I believe starting with a 1x1 rp would really help get me into the flow of things.

I saw that you had "-Anything pirate related," as a choice. I love pirates. Perhaps we can set up a role play where we are both pirate captains (having not met at first) in a fantasy world, having say one magical power of choice (nothing OP). It would be set in the actual time period of pirates, but a different universe, as there would be magical powers (very one-piece-ish), and there would be a tyrannical world government.
