Could be fun to explore the world’s new perceptions of the ethics of using powers, efforts by more radical survivors to eradicate supers, etc.

My preference is always towards a faction RP. Double points if you have gameplay mechanics as well.Nejii wrote:2.

4X-themed science fiction RPs are a dime a dozen. I'd really like to see you take a more innovative route, setting the main "plot" focus on the Precursors and the Rith, with the colonisation and expansion being more just the backdrop against which these things happen.Nejii wrote:3.

A partial/soft hive mind along the lines of Avatar's Pandora could be an interesting enemy.Nejii wrote:4. Colonial sponsors? Nation ideas? Faction ideas?
If you decide to go with a faction-based concept, it'll probably be best if you leave this to your roleplayers and have them design their own factions. If you decide to go with a character-based concept where that's not viable, well, unless you want to use your choice of factions to imply something I don't see much reason to deviate from the usual NASA/Roscosmos/CNSA/ESA set.

I would be onboard to join that. Most zombie apocalypse RP’s are set months or years after the initial outbreak. To me some of the best zombie apocalypse settings are amid the outbreak. Societal collapse combined with growing hordes of undead/infected win out over a derelict town with a few foot shufflers every time. That’s just my input though.
PS~Runners over walkers FTW.

At first people didn't believe it was happening and that it was just a new meme because the infected wouldn't come out during the day and were preferring to stick to places where people weren't, but then one day, it all breaks down and people realize this is actually happening. The RP would start in a small town and people in the town would have to find a way to escape a sudden onslaught of the monstrosities before they too become infected, the only problem is no one knows how its happening or why which only makes it even more terrifying.

I was thinking of a post-apocalyptic setting which is basically like The Stand. No zombies. No monsters. Just humans trying to survive, as humanity appears to be dying out from a virus that removes all hope.

It would be like a real medieval world. There would be multiple conquerors. In the middle of the land would be a peaceful kingdom protected by an agreement. The creatures would be squirrels, mice, otters, moles, voles, shrew, hares, badgers, hedghogs, rats, stoats, weasels,foxes, toads, lizards, crows, snakes, and wildcats. Any interested?
