RP NAME: ORCA__
OP NAME: Ontorisa
CO-OP NAMES: N/a so far
PREMISE:
Omnisentient Reactionary Computing AI.
ORCA was supposed to help the human civilization rebuild after a mysterious event, the Catastrophe, wiped out the majority of the human's progress over the thousands of years they had existed. Except... ORCA never emerged, never was found, and disappeared from the grasp of humanity. It was supposed to transform the Earth from its barren wasteland, filled with burnt out shells of houses, carcasses of monuments and
the badlands the Earth's land had turned into, back into its former self, a lush green, paradise. With a geographically different Earth, humans eventually gave up on the concept of ORCA and simply reverted to their primal instincts: band together and survive.
Over the years, ORCA was forgotten as various towns and cities emerged along the rotting planet of Earth. Ruins of humanity's previous achievements, glass and concrete skyscrapers, still littered parts of the world, but the majority of the achievements had been eroded away by years of neglect and nature. While they are still explored by various scavengers and inhabited by outlaws or criminals, a few who still believe in the mythology of ORCA and reckon that it resides in these grand cities that were hit the hardest by the Catastrophe. The catch? Aside from the outlaws and paranoid scavengers, other beings reside in the ruins. Monsters, they're called, Demons from the depths of Hell.
Aside from the walled towns, warring factions that are scattered across the singular continent and confined mainly to the shores of the North Ocean, the Earth is now riddled with these ruins, small oasis villages and deep canyons in the midst of a scorching and volatile wasteland. Everything is hostile, even the people that are encountered in the walled towns.
GENRE (Sci-Fi, Horror, Drama, etc): Post-Apocalyptic, Action, Adventure, Drama
TYPE (Character, Nation or Otherwise): Character
PROVIDE A BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE RP: Opening characters are grouped together in one of these walled towns and are guided by the OP & Co-OPs towards these ruins to find ORCA. Any players who join in halfway through are encountered along the way. Expect this to be a typical Ontorisa(TM) RP with a bunch of grit and realism. Eventually the characters will find ORCA in one of the ruins and find out it's both meant to help rebuild the Earth and to fix what went wrong (I'm going with the Catastrophe being a mix of natural disasters, diseases and the Earth's spin slowing down immensely).
IS THE OUT-OF-CHARACTER THREAD POSTED?: No
IS THE IN-CHARACTER THREAD POSTED?: No
NATURE OF REQUEST (Feedback, Looking for Co-Ops, Looking for Players, etc.): I'm looking for both feedback on the plot so far (not 100% done with it), people who are interested, people willing to Co-OP (preferably Pub members I know) and people willing to help me build the world up from scratch, which includes locations, maps and factions, as well as the history. I'm planning for this RP to take place pretty far in the future, but the Catastrophe basically sends society back a few thousand years (i.e. reliant on electricity, use of metals instead of newer, synthetic materials, the reliance on farming and fishing instead of manufactured foods, etc.)
