GrizzlyEatsKids:
Sorry, but this RP is going to be original, not based off of any game or movie. The video was just to be used as an inspiration to get the gears going. I could see a desert landscape in that video and say, for example:

Over time, a mysterious phenomenon took place, causing the Earth's deserts to grow, absorbing everything in their path, including the seas. Water became a rarity on the sandy planet, and wars began to break out for what was at one time a common resource and is a necessity of survival.

By the way, I totally just made that up as I typed it lol.

Yes, absolutely. Profiles will be more detailed than before, partially because I likely won't force everyone to start out as beginners (unless they choose to do so) in whatever the plot may be, and so they may have had a past that can affect a number of things, from appearance to personality to strengths and weaknesses. And there may be a short little "test" of sorts, just to ensure that you won't be overpowered and such. Fun is our top priority. Lastly, there may be a longer post requirement, such as possibly a 5 sentence minimum for each post in the RP. The RP will also provide difficult challenges to characters, because it isn't very often that you get stumped on an RP like you might a videogame.

Desbear:
You know what I suggest? An arena somewhere in the RP's map, where characters can fight if they want, no killing of course, or if you kill it has to be under consent of the other character's mod, of course, but still.

Humen:
Or better yet make a gladiator collosseum were enemys of whoever is in charge are put in random teams with other prisoners must fight to the death and to earn your freedom you must win 3 matches with the team of strangers but the players could choose to escape as they don't believe they can win as most rarely do. Although if they got cuaght they'd get dragged back and have to start over. Tournaments like that are always great and distract the populace from shady things the gov't is doing/planning.

NexosYourGayBestFriend96:
I'll throw in my little idea here. What if people in the RP where separated into classes where you can choose to be a certain type of mage or a physical fighter of sorts. Mage's in this RP could use magic only with a certain item or familiar, like say a crystal mage can only do magic with a magical crystal while they are developing their powers; or a mage could use a familiar to amplify their magic, like say an enchanted wolf or other sorts of monsters/ desert animals, but the only cost is that they die if their familiar dies. As for physical fighters this should speak for itself that they would be professionals at physical combat, whether it be with swords, fists, knives, guns/bows, etc.

Now there has to be a reason why the mage's are being hunted down in the video, and maybe we can use that element in the RP.

Any idea's, suggestions, or something to add on?

GrizzlyEatsKids:
Remember, Nex, we'll finalize all the planning somewhere else, but, what if everyone was skilled in something, I.e. strength, speed, defense, etc., and what if everyone winded up being a mage. Here's what I have, based on everyone's ideas, give me your honest opinions. Also, this may change, especially when Nex and I get together and plan, but anyway, here's a very rough draft:

Hundreds of years ago the nuclear World War III devastated Earth, destroying nearly every country and civilization, and almost causing humans to become extinct. Africa, while receiving major damage from the war, had remained neutral for the most part, and those who survived the war and were rich enough migrated to the continent over time. The rich all eventually settled in the center of the continent, creating an advanced utopian paradise known as Sanctum. Sanctum was then ruled by a religious council, who began their own religion, which by law all citizens had to follow. There were a total of thirteen council members, known as the Overrulers, led by a Head Overruler.  All of the radiation from the war over time mutated some genes, and every once in a while a child with these mutated genes would be born. These children, simply dubbed "Outcasts", were thrown out of Sanctum, whether to live or die, the Great Council didn't care. Some of Sanctum's citizens realized that this was wrong, and so they snuck out of Sanctum to form their own nation, the Unified Citizens of Earth, or UCE for short. Throughout a couple hundred years, the UCE grew, expanding to the east, west, and further to the south of the continent. The barren north is considered dangerous, uncharted territory, and the Democracy of the UCE does not allow any sort of travel to that area, under any circumstances.

As time grew on, and the UCE prospered, Sanctum began to run low on valuable resources, which were abundant in the south. Sanctum then raged war on the UCE, and although they had better technology, Sanctum was far less strategic than the UCE, as well as greatly outnumbered. Back in the labs of Sanctum, tests were constantly being done on the children with the mutated genes, which Sanctum had just killed off rather than deported, and a discovery was made. By using secret methods, the mutated genes were able to be extracted from the children and then mutated again. The genes could then be injected into some of Sanctum's members to give them special powers, or magic. Afer many deaths, the scientists at Sanctum realized that only specific people could withstand the new genes and survive, resulting in only a select few who were able to use magic. Sanctum then used the powered humans to take the UCE under their control, but a few were able to go even further south into hiding, where a new, rebellious organization, known simply as the Renegade, was formed. Sanctum now controls the UCE, which basically serves as the poor, nearly enslaved region of the country, whose citizens are not allowed to enter Sanctum. Sanctum has a problem, though: the Renegade, who, although small, pose a major threat to Sanctum and its secrets.


Well, that's what I have for now. Keep in mind that nothing is solid, but if everyone likes any of this we can at least work off of it. As for the coliseum, I don't think it'll just fit in whenever, being that it appears this won't be aa competitive fighting RP. Since everyone wants it, though, I will incorporate some sort of tournament into the story in some way, sort of like I did in the Kingdom Hearts RP. So, that's what I have for now, and it is quite a good bit, seeing as this only started yesterday. Anyway, thoughts? Ideas?
