Fallout city name: Mercenaries Without Borders Main Operating Base
Country and continent: Gabon, Africa.
Nearest modern-day city: Libreville.
Physical description (pictures acceptable): A massive military base built almost completely underground. The company built their Main Operating base in a massive fallout shelter, creating an underground military city.
http://imgur.com/i83YpFj
History: Initially paid by Gabon to keep out Congolese forces, mounting tension before the nuclear war allowed MWB to twist Gabon’s arm into allowing to create an underground city. Protected from nuclear winter, many of Gabon’s citizens praise MWB as peacekeepers. This has allowed them to overthrow the nation’s officials, and institute their own government onto the underground society.
Other: Mercenaries Without Borders, due the slowly decreasing number of contractors, and trying to keep population under control, has resorted to using unmanned weapons systems to keep the peace.

Name: the Patriot
Gender: Male
Appearance: http://imgur.com/zOrSBr0
Biography: Leader of the MWB group, he is well known as the perfect soldier. Tracing his lineage to the founder of Mercenaries Without Borders, he will do anything to ensure the survival of his PMC.
Personality: Cold and objectively-minded individual, he is obsessed with the survival of MWB and its projects. He would rather save a soldier’s life than a civilian’s life.
Anything else: Most of his body consists of Cyborg parts. His body is strengthened and regulated by nano-machines. This is to further the image that he is a soldier god that will save MWB and Gabon’s citizens.

Name: Commandant M. Aligheri
Gender: Male
Appearance: http://imgur.com/WsWIWpC
Biography: Once a soldier of fortune, Aligheri now works as a co-leader for Mercenaries Without Borders. Although the Patriot is the true leader, Aligheri works as an ambassador and organizer, constantly working with soldiers and citizens.
Personality: A caring individual, he does not carry the same aggressive attitude that most mercenaries do. Still, if anyone tries to harm a contractor or an innocent, Aligheri will not stand idly by.
Anything Else: No.

Name: Mia
Gender: Female
Appearance: http://imgur.com/Ja8AOlf
Biography: Although she appears older, Mia is only 22 years old. Due to extensive mental and physical training and conditioning, she has become a valuable asset and role model to Gabon’s citizens. The loving wife of Aligheri, she does what she can to assist MWB and Aligheri’s work. Trying to defend the citizens of the Main Operating Base who are outnumbered five to three by contractors, she cannot help but wonder why MWB still exists as a company.
Personality: She is a hard working individual who enjoys helping others and . She loathes having the attention of being the “First Lady”, due to the Patriot disallowing himself to be married, and has rarely been seen in public. Therefore, Aligheri and Mia are seen almost as royalty.

Character apps for Geneva. Forgot to put them with the city... :blush:
Name: Édouard Ganstrom
Gender: Male
Appearance (pictures acceptable): A tall, lanky Caucasian man (181 cm tall) with short black hair, vaguely hawklike features, focused dark eyes, and narrow lips. He generally wears a black, gray, or blue sweater with jeans when not in scientific gear.
Biography: Born three days before Christmas in 2375 to Marie and Leon Ganstrom, Edward astounded his parents by learning how to read at a year old. He was a quiet and friendly boy in school, who had trouble communicating his feelings to others and was kind and receptive to them. Due to his intelligence he received many honors and worked in the Urbs Scientiae at an early age. In secondary school he began dating girls, as was the tradition, but by sixteen he was depressed and isolated after breaking up with Liliane Macon, his crush since he was six years old. He read science fiction instead to beat away suicidal thoughts, and the books inspired him to decide to work in the Urbs Scientiae towards leading humanity from Earth and into the stars. Since he turned eighteen and graduated from secondary school, Edward has been leading the highest-achieving students of Geneva's secondary schools in research activities at Urbs Scientiae, many of them geared towards helping his plan to escape from Earth, a highly detailed paper he's had since he was thirty. He lives with his parents still in their house in the fallout city.
Personality: He is skeptical toward himself, cautious (especially around women), and often seems preoccupied or distracted (he often is working on other things in his head). He is polite and somewhat optimistic about the future, and may harbor a deep well of anger. Despite this, he is not willing to use violence or shouting and prefers peaceful solutions to things.
Anything else?: Name is anglicized as Edward. You can call him that.

App no. 2
Name: Anne "Anna" Theresa Kathraim
Gender: Female
Appearance (pictures acceptable): A girl of average height, Caucasian, curly blonde hair and green eyes, with a very nearly perfect bodily figure.
Biography: Born in 2399 to Jean and Valerie Kathraim, Anna is one of the Kathraim twins, the other being her sister Katherine. She was easily seen as an intelligent student in primary school and was remarked upon as if she were Edward Ganstrom, twenty-four years her senior, 's female counterpart. Unlike Edward, she never suffered rejection or failure in her interpersonal relationships, feeling, rather, as if all the boys in her age group are varying degrees of immature. Her beauty drew many of said boys, but she has primarily reduced them to an obedient and squabbling crowd due to her indecision on whom to date. She feels as if Leon Harbion is her closest match. However, he is the only boy in Geneva who hasn't ever been interested in her.
Personality: Anna is polite, empathetic, ambiverted and highly intelligent. Like Edward she suffers from a great deal of self-doubt about her own abilities. Her engaging attitude is also a draw for the teenage boys of Geneva. However, as aforementioned she feels as if they are mentally children compared to her. She can make snap decisions as easily as she can ruminate on a choice. Also like Edward, she hopes and believes that humanity can escape from Earth.
Anything else?: Her sister is sometimes jealous of her. But that's for her app.

App no. 3
Name: Jean-Charles de Gaulle "Jean" Kathraim
Gender: Male
Appearance (pictures acceptable): A tall and thin guy like Edward, he wears glasses and has straight brown hair. His nose is narrow and straight and he has a strong jaw.
Biography: Born five years before Edward in 2470, Jean was obsessed from a young age with machines and science, testing probes sent to the Surface of Geneva that he made himself when he was sixteen up to his 20th birthday.He was often isolated from most students and had a circle of close friends, including Richard Harbion, Leon's father, and his future wife Valerie. They worked occasionally in the Urbs Scientiae but focused mainly on robotics and robot designs. Jean also became interested in vehicles, which he'd later start designing at 19 as part of the Vehicle Design Committee in the Urbs Scientiae. He especially enjoys drawing spacecraft and various aircraft, along with large, octopodal robots he calls Spider Drones. In 2390 he began a relationship with Valerie Schwarz, his longtime friend and a year later married her. They had two daughters, Anna and Katherine. Jean continues his work and struggles with how to be a father and a good vehicle designer.
Personality: Jean is a kind, considerate man who is rather unreserved with his feelings, but is generally a happy man. He cares for his family, especially his daughters, deeply and sees them as the city- and maybe the world's- future. He also loves drawing and building models of planes, spaceships and spider drones. But this has conflicted with his desire to be there for and take care of his daughters and he worries he's not a good enough father to them.
Anything else?: He is rather bitter about World War III and the Oil Age.

Fallout city name: Atlantis
Country and continent: Near Ireland, Atlantic Ocean
Nearest modern-day city: Dublin, Ireland
Physical description (pictures acceptable) and History: This massive 24 km city was build by the top scientists of the United States and the EU. It housed all their hopes and dreams... Advanced weapon designs, adaptive body armor, food replication technology, interal sensor arrays, "Elevators" which can transport anyone across the ship in a matter of seconds, and most importantly the shielding systems that allowed it to submerge beneath the waves of the Atlantic when the bombs feel... In addition to the shields, the city contains may rail gun batteries, as well as point defense systems... This city is completely self sufficient, and could be that way for another 10,000 years. Nearly every single building you can think of is located somewhere on the city. They have a hospital, a research wing, schools, military barracks, civilian housing, virtual reality simulators for military training (similar to holodecks)... The city is currently sitting on the bottom on the Atlantic ocean... Also, most Atlantian people believe that the other "Fallout Cities" are hoaxes or have been destroyed by natural disasters. But even tho they think that is the case, they send out messages on a continuous loop across the entire world saying, "The War is over, I say again, the war is over. If anyone is still alive, please respond. Over."

Image

The city has 4 castes: Military, Science, Medical, and the Workers

Military: Although, relatively small in number (54,678), the Atlantian military is a force to be reckoned with. If you are in the Military, you were born into it. From when you are born, you are trained to be a lean, mean, fighting machine. so by that fact, the Atlantian military is very, very well trained... All Atlantian forces (when deployed in combat) have/use the equipment that follows: Full Body Armor (Similar to Power Armor or Spartan Armor), an Assault Rifle, a pistol, headset communicator, a full 3 days rations, ammunition, pulse grenades (similar to an EMP), fragmentation grenades... They are not limited to these weapons tho... also, most military personnel are on police duty because the city is so big, but they can be mobilized very quickly. The only always active Combat unit is the Bane Brigade.

Image

Science: The science caste is very different from the Military. You are not born into the science group, but you are placed into it during high school. If you are placed into the science group, you spend your life developing weapons and new technology for the betterment of the city. The science caste is 75,895 people strong.

Medical: The medical caste is very similar to the science caste, but instead of working on weapons, they heal the sick and research cures for different ailments. In the last 500 years they cured cancer and Parkinson's. This caste is 67,833 people strong.

The Workers: this caste is the most numerous and least respected caste. They are the builders, the miners... The are the Workers. They maintain the city, as well as build new buildings when it is necessary. They also mine for the resources that are needed for repairs and building items. The Worker caste does most of the duties that are not associated with the military, science, or medical. The worker caste is the most numerous with 347,893 people.

Other: The government of Atlantis is a sort of council rule. The four castes appoint a representative to the council of 5. Then there is an election in the upper castes of who is chairman. This council makes the decisions for the city. The council chambers, as well as the control systems, is located in the central spire.

I will make my characters later...

Name: General Alexander Czer
Gender: Male
Appearance (pictures acceptable):

Image

Biography: General Czer has been in the military longer than most, giving him the nickname of "Lifer". Most of the military forces retire around the age of 50 or 60, and move into either the medical or science castes but Czer has stayed in the military. He is currently 71 years old, and still has 40 is years until he reaches minimum life expectancy. He has served on the Council of Five for 20 years. First appointed as the Military representative, then as the Chairman. Currently he holds the chairman position, and is the leader of Atlantis. He is currently married to Shanae Strout, a Caucasian woman whom he met while sick in the hospital.

Personality: General Czer used to be mean and heartless, but he has softened into a kind and generous man. He is a sound general and a brilliant tactician, but he will never say so. A humble man, he always negates his achievements saying, "I got here because I worked hard. You can get here too. I did nothing special".

Anything else?: He once played Frisby Golf, or Golf Frisby, or whatever you call flinging a nine iron into the ocean.

Name: Commander William Tolfin
Gender: Male
Physical Appearance:

Image

Biography: William Tolfin is currently the Commander of The Bane Brigade, the highest and most deadly brigde of the Atlantian Military. It's operations include: The Invasion and subsequent purge of Ireland of all non Atlantian people living there, the Destruction of the British-French Channel tunnel, and the battle of Northern Ireland where Ireland was finally unified under one banner.

Personality: A very cold man, Tolfin leads his forces against any and all who oppose Atlantis. Tolfin and his soldiers do not take pity on those they attack and do not care what happens to them. While, on the other hand, Tolfin is like a father to the Bane Brigade, and is saddened when he loses one of his men.

Anything Else?: He is quoted as saying, "if you live by the sword, you die by the sword. If you live by the river, you die by the sword... A sword will kill you, it doesn't matter where you live. "

Your app looks pretty good. If the city of Atlantis's population isn't 500,000 (I'll check later and edit this post) it will be accepted.
Yeah, you've passed the limit by 6,289...I really mean 500,000 when I say 500,000...but seeing as it's such a small number I guess I can overlook that. Although if later posters try to go too much over the limit then I'll have to ask them to revise their numbers or leave.
So, you're accepted. Welcome to the thread!
As for me, new character app coming up.

Hi heres my little app i hope it is satisfactory :)

I only have one character for now but ill add more as time goes by having a bit of a writing block regarding characters at the moment :P

Fallout city name: Nova Svea
Country and continent (I may need clarification): Sweden, Europe.
Nearest modern-day city: Stockholm.
Physical description (pictures acceptable): The Swedish fallout city was the greatest effort that the Swedish Kingdom had ever created. It was built in 3 different sections. One part is underneath the city and is the habitation part of the city. Instead of only building maze of small tunnels for the people to live in it was designed with several large rooms in which people could getaway from the claustrophobic feeling that they believed people would feel as such many of these rooms are used as atriums and gardens for recreation.
A bit outside the burnt capitol connected by an underground rail system there is the agriculture system where all the food is grown in aquaponics systems. This is a combination of hydroponics and a fish farm. This system provides food for all the residents inside the city. To travel to the city takes about 15 minutes with the rail system therefore very few people actually live inside this sector with most people living in the main sector.
The last sector is the science and industry sector where all manufacturing and development is conducted. While most people would expect this to only supply basic necessities this is far from the truth. In reality this sector is well stocked with equipment for all purposes even up to large scale manufacturing of vehicles including tanks if needed and also high precision manufacturing such as computer chips and similar devices. It is also connected to the sea and has a drydock installed which hasn't been used since the construction, but plans of creating ships has been put forward to the ruling body of the city (http://www.theblogbelow.com/2008/07/mus ... -nava.html)
However what sets this truly apart is the research part of the city which employs a large part of the population. Due to cultural trends in Sweden at the time which leaned towards trans-humanism many of the scientists are experts in cybernetics and genetic engineering. As such they are very busy creating ways for humans to enhance themselves beyond the natural limits. As such many of the residents in the city have both a perfect physical form and can utilize their bodies and minds beyond their natural limits using a combination of cybernetics and genetic enhancement.

History: The fallout city designated Nova Svea was a dream project of Sweden they had tried to construct since the Cold War. Afraid of the close call of a nuclear war during the Cuba Crisis plans were made to build a fallout city to protect the Swedish people in the event of an apocalyptic event. However due lack of funding and the fall of the Soviet Union the plans were laid in an archive and soon forgotten.

It wasn't until 2016 that the plans were found again and it was decided in a secret meeting that the fallout city would be constructed- At first it was a small scale project with only a few people involved, but as the years went on more people was employed and more funds given. There was never any planned final day when the construction would be complete instead it was supposed to be an eternal project with new rooms being built as time passed until it would be needed. A that point the construction would close and people moved into the city.
As such the city was under construction for almost 100 years before ever being used. When the bombs fell the city had the capacity to sustain almost 400 000 for an indefinite period of time. This allowed the city to survive until today. However to survive certain restrictions was placed on the inhabitants such as limits on child births and similar ways to control the population. Anyone found in violation of these laws were either executed or exiled out of the city as they were deemed a threat to the city.

This helped create the callousness that the citizens of Nova Svea pride themselves on.
However the times have changed and now the citizens of Nova Svea want to reclaim the planet in their own name and create their own future.

Other: While many scientist expected the city to develop castes they have managed to stay away from such a limiting system. Instead they respect each and everyone despite what they do inside the city from the janitors and maintenance men to the soldiers and scientists.

However their have been a societal shift in the cultural values in the city which few people had anticipated. Due to the large availability of cybernetic implants and genetic modifications the entire population of Nova Svea is augmented and technically a trans-human. As such they view themselves as more important and evolved than normal baseline humans and don't view them any different than animals. As such they are quite willing to conduct unethical experiments on humans and/or attacking them without a second thought.
As such they could almost be considered sociopaths, but they do understand the value of teamwork and loyalty and at the same time can feel regular emotions.

Viraliz wrote:Hi heres my little app i hope it is satisfactory :)

I only have one character for now but ill add more as time goes by having a bit of a writing block regarding characters at the moment :P

Fallout city name: Nova Svea
Country and continent (I may need clarification): Sweden, Europe.
Nearest modern-day city: Stockholm.
Physical description (pictures acceptable): The Swedish fallout city was the greatest effort that the Swedish Kingdom had ever created. It was built in 3 different sections. One part is underneath the city and is the habitation part of the city. Instead of only building maze of small tunnels for the people to live in it was designed with several large rooms in which people could getaway from the claustrophobic feeling that they believed people would feel as such many of these rooms are used as atriums and gardens for recreation.
A bit outside the burnt capitol connected by an underground rail system there is the agriculture system where all the food is grown in aquaponics systems. This is a combination of hydroponics and a fish farm. This system provides food for all the residents inside the city. To travel to the city takes about 15 minutes with the rail system therefore very few people actually live inside this sector with most people living in the main sector.
The last sector is the science and industry sector where all manufacturing and development is conducted. While most people would expect this to only supply basic necessities this is far from the truth. In reality this sector is well stocked with equipment for all purposes even up to large scale manufacturing of vehicles including tanks if needed and also high precision manufacturing such as computer chips and similar devices. It is also connected to the sea and has a drydock installed which hasn't been used since the construction, but plans of creating ships has been put forward to the ruling body of the city (http://www.theblogbelow.com/2008/07/mus ... -nava.html)
However what sets this truly apart is the research part of the city which employs a large part of the population. Due to cultural trends in Sweden at the time which leaned towards trans-humanism many of the scientists are experts in cybernetics and genetic engineering. As such they are very busy creating ways for humans to enhance themselves beyond the natural limits. As such many of the residents in the city have both a perfect physical form and can utilize their bodies and minds beyond their natural limits using a combination of cybernetics and genetic enhancement.

You're welcome. I've never seen transhumanism enacted before, and I wonder how Nova Svea will interact with the other fallout cities, given that they see themselves as superior.
I'll have the IC up tomorrow. I suppose I'll make do with the 3/70 members I originally hoped for...oh well.

Geneva, at least, has peaceful intentions. And don't worry, if anyone tries that they'll be booted from the thread.

Nah, don't worry.

Well, I'll allow that, so long as they aren't, for example, armed with lasers, attack in swarms of hundreds, small enough to fit into backpacks and impervious to bullets. But I've seen your designs. I guess I can trust that they won't be too numerous or able to overpower anyone easily.

But the general rule is as follows-
unmanned combat units are permitted, as long as you don't have anything like

See underlined for what is specifically prohibited. I also will not allow an army of 10,000 robotic Spartans, Battle Droids of any sort, or a million robots with RPGs and voice replicators. The maximum of any of these I'll allow is 60.
