So far, the factions are:

Anti-Governmentalists

Communist Enclaves

Merchanty People

Can I take a few factions from What remains? MY post-apocalyptic RP that looks like it's died.


Maybe, I've got a pretty good idea of what I want in my head, I'm just currently in the process of writing it out.

Also, I forgot to mention the Raider faction. I might also add a few more civilian factions.

Sure, why not. Which religion should it be, though?

Well, where is the setting? If it's in Middle Eastern countries, it can be Islam. If in Europe, Catholic or Christian, if in China, buddhism?

Louisiana, USA. I was thinking Christianity (or something completely new), but we can do something that wouldn't be at all prevalent, for shits and giggle.

Or maybe Zoroastrianism :3

I mean, I know Jesus was like "forgive your neighbour" and then Crusades, but Buddhist zealots in a civil war sounds a tad unlikely to be the main religious force...

Buddhist terrorists are actually very common.

If you want a good rp, read this shit.
Tiami is cool.
Nat: Night's always in some bizarre state somewhere between "intoxicated enough to kill a hair metal lead singer" and "annoying Mormon missionary sober".

Swith: It's because you're so awesome. God himself refreshes the screen before he types just to see if Nightkill has written anything while he was off somewhere else.

Have you ever think of Tibetan fighters? Aren't they Buddhist?

I know, and there are some in Myanmar too, but really, they aren't numerous or militant enough to become a dominating, overpowering force, as a major player in a military sense. But then again, your world, I suppose.

There is a very good chance that I'm about halfway through writing one that takes place in Louisiana.

Minus the mutants of course. And it isn't really Fallout, just influenced by it.


As a former Louisiana native, I'm very interested in this idea.

Hey, Mentors, how about a weekly poll or something on the thread? Perhaps questions like "How useful do you find the Cafe" or "What kind of RP did you most enjoy"?

The former could work.

The latter has too many options.
