The sun rises on a new world- a world not like that you may know. Shattered by a catastrophic impact not long after the extinction of the dinosaurs, Earth is not as it should be. This impact, a star falling to earth, changed not only the shape of the world, but also her content; this star bore strange light and strange crystals, warping and altering the planet where humanity slowly arose.

You are one of the first tribes to form an actual civilization, a kindred of sorts that has banded together for survival. Men, not far removed from their primitive origins, but with the potential for so much more. Simple, unadulterated, and a story with as many branching outcomes as may be imagined.

Hello! Welcome to a revival of G-tech's A strange world: RP! I will be your OP, Saxony-Brandenburg! I do hope you enjoy. Please, let me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns!

Soo super-chill casual RP. Some basic things you might want to know about how I'm going to be running the RP.

All tribes begin with five citizens, and I am accepting a maximum of ten tribes. You may (most likely will) acquire more citizens as the RP progresses, because who can get much done with so few people?

You should expect to make an IC post once every 24 hours IRL, and only one. A nice simple straightforward expectation, no strings attached. These posts correspond to the passage of a year's time, in-character.

All tribes will begin with four "resources", uncommon materials that will be tracked as vaguely important in the "region" where they live. You will be allowed to choose two of these resources, but the rest I will generate. These don't include generic materials like flint, stone, mud, trees, and so on, but keep your assumption of what is generic reasonable- copper, for instance, is a resource, not something you can just assume your tribe has.

Tribe members, or citizens, should be assigned roles upon starting the IC; Warrior, Scholar, Worker, or Scout. These roles are important, and may not be changed, but the acquisition of new citizens will help you balance out your decisions if you think you have chosen poorly.

Warriors: Self-explanatory. They're relatively trained in combat, and excel at hunting or defending a tribe. Also, yknow, taking stuff from other tribes, if you are so inclined.
Scholars: May make new discoveries or devise new uses for resources once every year. TG me your Scholar proposals when you come up with them; some may take more than a single year or a single Scholar's work to develop.
Worker: These lads gather almost all resources and construct any tools/buildings your Scholars come up with. They're pretty useful for ensuring your ivory-tower intellectuals don't starve.
Scouts: Necessary to find out more about the world beyond your tiny slice of paradise (or not paradise). Also vaguely skilled in combat, though nothing like Warriors.

Babies.

[Saxony-Brandenburg]

Well- I'm waiting on one or two more apps I'll open up the IC. I'll put in my own and that'll be that!

Focus in on certain topics. I spread out my efforts between a lot of things and was left with like two technologies after the timeskip because I didn’t get far enough in most of them.

[Olthenia]

Is there an application we could have a look at?

[The GAmeTopians]

Is there an application we could have a look at?

Nah, just telegram Saxony with name, location, and two resources.

Ah. Damn my inability to read before I write.

[Ostnea]

So I know we are starting in the stone age, but how deep into the stone age? I'd just like to get a starting reference point for tech/culture.

Also, will we have dogs? They as a domestic animals are a little bit younger than bows and arrows, and unless we were deep into the Paleolithic (like not too far from neanderthal deep) we probably will have access to them.

[Saxony-Brandenburg]

Alright! I'll be putting up the IC soon!!! Everyone make sure to try and put out one post / day, this will probably be changed however, and Ill see how quick I can grade too XD. Those who I've TG'd, please respond before posting so I can finish up. Thanks!

You will start off Hard stone age - a band of nearly naked, spear-wielding nomads - and wolves will be a specific recourse, that will need to be researched to be exploited

Remembers losing a tribe member trying to learn how to domesticate great wolves.

Remembers trying to migrate and having 3/5ths of my tribe die in an accident crossing a swamp.

Yup, not migrating this time.

[Sinyal]

Saxony's online so I hope he gets to responding to me.
