INTEREST CHECK: Unique post-apocalyptic multie-species roleplay
Posted 2021-08-11 12:21:19
NOTICE: This topic will have mentions of death and disease as it is based on a plague-ridden alternate reality. This story might gross out those with sensitive stomachs.

Concept draft: Told in the POV of a leading story character, undecided between crow/raven or magpie. The name will be "scout," named for his role.
An alternate reality taking place in London in the aftermath of WWII.
---
A great plague has ravaged our world. A terrible accident caused by biochemical warfare. The Nazis believed they harnessed it and developed a vaccine. But they were poorly mistaken.

Within months, society fell to its knees as the world crumbled around us. The sick and dying flooded the streets. Violence and crime skyrocketed. Hope dwindled, such as that of dying candlelight. It was every man, woman, and child for themselves.

But survival was a fruitless endeavor. An impossible feat. Soon enough, mankind ceased to exist. The humans wiped themselves out and in time, nature did as it always does: it reclaimed all that rightfully belonged to it.

Months have passed since we last saw humans in our region. I have scoured the city and I have seen the bodies. The rancid smell of corpses rotting in the streets; a smell I will never forget. The vultures and scavengers tear away at the bodies, somehow ignoring the odor altogether and feasting on the dead.
But I have seen what this does to them. These dumb beasts become husks of their former selves. They do not think like us. They do not feel love, or fear, or pity. Listlessly wandering the streets of London until an unfortunate soul crosses their path. Vile, disgusting creatures. They reek of disease and prowl about with their flesh sloughing off until they are nothing. A pile of bones and visceral mush.


Features:
  • A unique survival story which will progress and change based on in-character actions

  • Multiple species to choose from gives users plenty of potential for unique characters and interactions

  • Choice-based events will push your characters to their mental and physical limitations, revealing their true nature and darkest moments as they fight for survival

  • Random encounters, scavenging and other actions that may provide items, buffs and other rewards- or drawbacks should you make the wrong choice

  • Characters will only die by their player's choice, but will have limited HP during events and encounters. If they run out of HP, they can no longer participate in fights until resolved. Player's will be able to heal their characters with certain items, spending time resting or roleplaying their recovery, etc.
