The year is 2130, corporations practically rule the world, and natural disasters are on the rise, due to extreme climate changes. World leaders, scientists, and several other important people have came to two solutions: to send people of Earth into space or underground. After hours of arguing and conflict, they come to one conclusion: They would send at least 500 volunteers from each country contributing to the project underground, and if the world is okay in 400 years time, the people could go out into the world again. If it wasn't, they'd either keep the people below. It was as simple as that. It was decided for the city to be named Ascondil, coming from a Latin word meaning "hidden". After mapping out safe areas underground, a total of 25,000 people (24,500 the Chief Executive (leader) and his council went underground to their new home. The city looked a bit like this:

(Sorry if the picture may seem steampunkish and not what you were hoping WHAT DID YOU EXPECT TO FIND UNDERGROUND)
399 years later, cultures have not been forgotten. The people still know their purpose and of the world above, but there isn't much to miss: advancements in technology have allowed wildlife to exist underground. Many sicknesses, such as cancer, have been cured. Life goes on, people go with their daily lives, children play, caravans full of all kinds of trinkets pass through the streets. Almost time to be freed from these caves, the people were excited. But wait, the Admiral refuses to allow the people out of the city limits. What's happening? Why won't that leader let the people be free? Some say it's for power, others support their leader. Time goes on, 3 years have gone by. Guards patrol the city 24/7, and those that try to escape, or resist authority, well....won't be seen for a long time. A revolution has broken out, chaos rampages through the streets. Who will you be? Which side are you on? Where will your path take you?
Based loosely on The City Of Ember
Ground Rules No spam (some appropriate images are permitted), no ninja'd, none of that Godmodding nonsense, be nice (you can be 'mean' or 'evil' in the rp, but nothing truly offending other players), anime is not permitted here at all, random killing is considered a WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT and a NO, and be careful around cacti.

It's basically like Imperial ", Monarchy": There's a leader, the leader's family, and the council. The oldest child or oldest male of the household is heir to the throne. Heirs must alwa- well, you get the picture. It's one big cheese surrounded by other guys and if you don't like them you're doomed.
Each person must fill in a part of the complex society. You are basically ruled with an iron fist by your leader. Everyone must obey. There's no main religion or schooling system, children learn nearly everything from their parents. Despite the strict laws, culture thrives here. Art is highly valued, creativity and technology are the heart and soul of the people.
Your job is pretty much your role in society. There are lots of different jobs, from agricultural to engineering, medical to factories, the possibilities are nearly endless.If you have a job to suggest, send a TG!
