As it says in the name, there is a city called Wasteland that you need to survive in. This idea came from the Idea of Fallout, where the whole world has been in a Nuclear war and everything is destroyed. The only differences is that this is not the whole world and that there hasn't been a nuclear war, there has only been a war. The war, like in the Fallout games, has destroyed everything in the city.

The only surviving things in the city are a few bandits, cannibals, scavengers, a few humans that are kind and animals, vicious and some ones that are tamed, wandering around the city trying to get out but there is no way out. There is no way out of the city. When the rest of the world heard about this plague of a war they got together scraps of cars, bikes etc. to build a barricade around the city and stop the war reaching the rest of the world. Now that the war has ended, and everything is destroyed, the people left are hungry for food and thirsty for water.

At the beginning of this RP you will be a lone fighter on his own in the city. You will find the rest of the group (If enough people join this RP to actually make up a group) near the beginning and you band together to survive in Wasteland.

This RP is VERY realistic, so you have to find or make your own ammo and there is no energetic weapons such as the energy cannon/pistol, but you can still loot things to get your ammo from them. The guns in the game are all of the guns in the modern world, if you can't think of any, then you can make some up that sound moderately modern worldish.

There is probably some questions for this RP as it probably isn't that clear in some parts, so feel free to ask away. I'm hoping this will be a long lasting RP but it probably wont be.

IF you join (Which you hopefully will), this is what you need:

Name:

Abilities: These can be any that you can think of, but no non-realistic things like super strength or something like that, you can be strong just not super-strong.

Gender:

Age:

Hobbies: This is what you are good at, like being fast at running or having a very accurate aim with you guns.

Weapons: You can carry up to four weapons at any one time, they can also be melee weapons. Grenades are bonuses, they do not count as one of the four.

Armour: This is kind of obvious but just remember that i'm trying to make this realistic so if you have realy heavy armour you are not going to have as miuch agility and such.

Appearence: What you look like.

Personality: How you act or behave.

I might have missed something important so if I have then let me no a' I'll add it it pronto, or you could just add what I've missed into your signup and let me know that I've missed that part out afterwards.

I've been a fan of the Fallout series for some time. This has piqued my interest. I'll try to come up with a character in the meantime.

Name: Ivan Kinsman

Abilities: As trained himself to be able to sprint sever meters within a few seconds to help him dodge incoming fire, and is also able to speed read and write from never knowing how long he maybe able to stay in a place before being chased out. He can lift about 30 pounds on top of his armor and still maintain an average speed. He also boosts a great memory and can often call back from knowledge of books he read ages ago.

Gender: Male

Age: 37

Hobbies: Ivan is great at creating bombs and traps, as well as sprinting, climbing and hiding in spots nobody should find. He loves to read and knows both English and Russian, he also can cook a mean meal.

Weapons: an AA-12, a combat knife that's been filled down, and a steal strengthened crossbow.

He also has a smoke grenade, and two home made grenades one filled with glass shavings the other with gunpowder.

Ammo: The AA-12 has one drum left with 20 rounds in it.He also has a quiver with 10 bolts in it.

He has 30 rounds on him that do not fit any of this guns, including 8 -.45 rounds, five standard sniper round, 2 Armour piercing sniper rounds, 6 -.44 rounds ,and 9 hunting shotgun rounds.

Accessories: He as two books in his possession, the first being a wilderness survival guide the second being a bomb and weapon making guide in Russian. Along with some scrap metal, nails, some home made glue and a packet of food recipes held together with tape. Along with some shotgun shells and various other gun shells for guns he doesn't use. And a small flint striker which is tied to his knife. He also has some chalk and a map of the city he made along with a burlap poncho, and cowboy hat which are rolled up in his backpack.

Armour: a constructed vest of plate armor made of thin scrap metal with some leather armor on the torso, forearms, and legs.

Appearence: Ivan has short blond hair dyed by the dust of the waste land. He as a trimmed goatee and side burns that match his hairs stained look. He stands around 5' 7" and is thin but well built. He wears a brown leather vest with matching pants, and forearm guards. Under the vest is a maroon colored shirt, above it a set of plate armor. He also carries a fanny pack and cloth bag strapped to his leg. His arms are warped in bandages for no other reason than he thinks it looks cool, he has a cloth pack with a snake on it wrapped around his left arm for the same reason. He also has a set of metal and glass goggles over his neck. He also wears a bandoleer over his left shoulder,and this is were her keeps his knife and grenades. On his back is a fabric quiver where he stores his bolts.

Personality: Ivan is a bit paranoid and doesn't trust new people, but is a warm, kind guy underneath it all he's just a bit damaged, although he'd be very slow to admit that. He does not usually go looking for a fight but can easily fend off most attackers.


I added accessories because my character carries some books on him, and Ammo so I know how much he has.

I don't think he's really OP'd he's just a crafty detailed character, given time he could equip a small gang with every good weapons but on his own he's mostly just good for running and hunting.

Here she is.

  • Name: Kale (No last name. At the very least, she doesn’t give it out.)
  • Abilities: She is a skilled survivalist, she can go for a week with minimal food and hydration and up to 72 hours straight without sleep.
  • Gender: Female
  • Age: 26
  • Hobbies: She’s very accurate with a rifle and she’s skilled at repairing firearms in the field. For fun and to distract herself from the general hoplessness of the situation, she is writing a fictional account of her time in Wasteland. It's just like her real life, except she gets to have a flamethrower.
  • Weapons:
    • 1) .243 bolt-action rifle (w/iron sights)
    • 2) 9mm pistol (Glock)
    • 3) 5” hunting knife
    • 4) A small multi-tool (for repairs but it has a knife so technically it could be used as a weapon)
  • Armour: She wears a stolen kevlar vest on her torso and light kneepads with shinguards. She also wears light gloves that have aluminum plates over the backs. The index finger is missing from both gloves (for firing her weapons).
  • Accessories: Connected to her belt loop, she carries a broken pocket watch that’s always stuck at June 16th, 10:15 am. Do not touch it. She also carries several pens (many of which have run out of ink) and a notebook.
  • Appearance: Kale is about 5 and a half feet tall with tanned skin and long, black hair that she keeps tied back and hidden under her hood. She wears a pair of darkened goggles to further obscure her appearance. Her attire consists of torn, dark blue cargo pants and a black hooded sweatshirt. She appears thin, but she’s stronger than she looks. She walks with a slight limp and only runs when it’s absolutely necessary.
  • Personality: Kale spent a lot of time alone in Wasteland City. As a consequence, she’s been known to talk to herself while performing mundane tasks like repairing her guns or keeping watch for bandits. She intentionally hides the fact that she’s a woman. Why make a bigger target of herself than she already is, what with actually being able to survive on her own and all? She has a personal vendetta against bandits of any kind and will, at times, stop during her travels to engage them (usually while hidden and at a distance).


Also, how large is the city?

She is paranoid that fairies are going to eat her and because of that reason she is afraid of butterflies because she heard that butterflies are the decedents of fairies.

I just sent a PM to the OP asking if this is dead or not.

Since there seemed to still be interest, I was thinking of putting on my GM hat for this, if the OP says so. I'm currently awaiting a response.

[up][up][up] *GM Hat on*

I could concievably see a character that went completely insane after the bombs dropped. Although I think their fear of butterflies would be unfounded since the butterfly population most probably dropped severely.tongue

If this is still on:

Name: Jared Blake

Abilities: Very fast and agile. Good vision. Fairly small and weak though. Willing to do whatever it takes to survive.

Gender: Male

Age: 25

Hobbies: Fast and agile. An expert Traceur and fairly good boxer. Good at hiding and disguises, and has some basic knowledge on making traps. A fairly good shot with a pistol

Weapons: Hunting Knife, 9mm Glock 17.

Ammo: 5 9x19mm magazines, each holding 17 bullets.

Armour: A light bulletproof vest that doesn't inhibit movement, capable of stopping small arms fire and knives. Only protects torso.

Accesories: Carries a plain silver Zippo lighter, half full, a map of the city, a carton of cigarettes (he doesn't smoke, but it's good for bartering) with 73 left, a full canteen of water, and a can opener.

Appearence: Jared is small, about 5' 4'' and 107 pounds. He has short, black hair, cut so it keeps out of his eyes, and a thin, bony face. His body is covered with hundreds of tattoos on his arms, hands, chest, back and legs. Most are tribal symbols, runes, and snippets of poetry, but he also has a demon emerging from flames on his lower back. He wears a close fitting black long sleeve shirt and ripped jeans.

Personality: Jared is withdrawn and untrusting. He has a philosophy of "do anything to survive", and is willing to lie, cheat, and backstab if it means he gets out of a situation safely. (note: This is subject to a bit of flexibility at first as I get a good feel for the character)

Very well. I gave the OP the entire weekend to respond, and I haven't heard anything back.

Looks like I'll be GMing this.

My first act shall be to accept the above character.

(However, my time on the computer is limited, but I like the concept of this RP too much to let it die. That being said, I can only be on for a few hours a day. I wouldn't mind having a co-GM.) smile

I wouldn't mind volunteering for the role, but I usually screw up as a GM when I'm given the chances to do so. Sorry, man.

A signup'll probably be here later today.
