From Kendall and @LadyMysterio...

INTRO

The world has ignored the scientists and now it is almost too late. The richest and most "important" people were moved into domes in Canada, Iceland, and Greenland full of fresh air and green plants, kept at a pleasant temperature year round.

The rest of the world suffers from sickness, lack of clean water, foul air, and scarce food supplies, and it's only getting worse. The remaining scientists of the world have warned that the end is at hand for everyone outside of the safe areas for those lucky enough to be inside. Those fortunate enough to have any level of education are mostly farmers and engineers. Earth is nearly uninhabitable.

Now, though, change is coming. Even though it's January 2078, temperatures in New England have soared to record highs-- 50s at night, 70s during the day. A broadcast sent out on an old radio system by a trio of NASA scientists warns that the end may be at hand. The only true hope fr the human race is to evacuate to Mars. An atmosphere exists on Mars-- it had been formed back in the 30s, but the plan to evacuate was abandoned because of the costs-- but the only issue is how to get there.

It is up to the remnants of humanity to convince the wealthy to join them on their mission to Mars. Should their journey northwest be successful, both sides will need one another to survive...

PLOT
Spoiler! :
The trashed ruins of Boston, Massachusetts in January 2078 for people outside of the safe zones. Parts of the city will be underwater. The safe zone that the characters will head towards will be in Ottawa, Canada. Flooding, raiders, gangs, and other dangers will lie between Boston and Ottawa. On foot and following the roads, the shortest route is 401 miles.


We have a WFP set up for this RP!

Name: Mestria (No Surname)
Age: 19
Gender:Female
Looks:Lean and medium size for her over structure, Mestria has medium-short jet black hair that she ties into a bun to prevent disadvantages in combat. Mestria has brown eyes that can be revealed as maroon if in a certain light.
Personality: Mestria is mostly guarded and rude. She's very skilled in combat, but not really skilled at anything else. She doesn't have any real intelligence and she tends to sneer as much as possible. (Mestria is from a new novel that I'm making. When it comes out in the Green Room, Mestria will appear)
Weapons: Two short swords that she holds on both hands. Nothing else except for light leather armor.
Pets: An enchanted frog that can ingest any food. Good for a garbage can-- but bad for an owner who wants a relatively non-stinky, clean house.
they told me to never give up on my dreams.

so i took another nap

Name: He prefers to go by Blaze.
Age: 19
Gender: Male. He's bisexual, by the way.
Looks: Wears a pure black coat coated in silica aerogel to repel heat that in shape looks like the bloodborne hunter style coat, except it's jet black and has a belt at the waist to create a pronounced flare. His features are hidden; beneath the cowl he wears a smooth, white mask that covers his entire face. His eyes, though, are of extremely dark brown.
Personality: He secretly enjoys dabbling in politics large and small and seeing people he favours rise to power, and he tends to help them in little ways. He doesn't make friends easily, but doesn't make enemies either. When he begins to care about someone, however, he can be fiercely loyal.
Blaze is also
He works as a mercenary, mostly, who's much more honourable than the average merc.
Weapons: He's very good at gathering information, through bribery or threats, and has several stealth skills. (idk how else to express that, lol) He uses an advanced crossbow with a scope, long range, and very quick reloading capabilities. His bolts are usually coated with poisons. Blaze is also competent at hand-to-hand combat, but isn't brilliant. He keeps a couple of smoke bombs and flash grenades in a belt at his waist.
Pets: None.

On the horizon, morning dawned as it had every day-- hash, bright, and inhumane. The wasted city of Boston, Massachusetts lay in ruins around the masked man and his dogs. They hadn't slept at all the night before-- safer to sleep during the day, when it was often too hot to come out.

"Georgia, Franklin, let's git," the man said, standing up and moving towards an empty door frame on a half-destroyed house. "Let's get inside."

Blaze walked quickly through an alley, hoping to find a safehouse before the sun came out in all its terrible glory. His suit would be able to repel heat only for so long.

Ayshi strapped her sword and sheath into her back then ducked under the wooden frame that acted as her door. Exiting the hobbit like hole that she called her home. It was really an old bomb shelter that she'd uncovered.

The sun was setting, casting the land around her in an array of pastels. She squatted down and pulled down the cement door, brushing a hand over the black mark on top. It was a simple emblem. A triangle with a line down the middle of it. An exact replica was embedded into the sword sheathed on her back The sign of the Despondent. Somthing that a few centuries ago would have condemned on her. Right now, it more or less protected her.

A flutter of wings tickled her ear.
"Hello, Drystan,"
Giving the raven a little scratch on its black head she stood. Planting her hands on her hips, watching the random human, rush to get home before the sunset. Nighttime was a rather dangerous time to be out if you weren't well prepared and armed.

Most preferred the night as it was cooler. She preferred the day. Being dark-skinned she could handle it better.
But tonight she was going scavaging.

Eliza's eyes blinked open. She was alone.
She knew it even before she sat up. The silence... It was too quiet.
There was a brief moment of confusion, before fear took hold.
She glanced around wildly at the broken ruins around her.

A fire.
The smell of smoke, burning in her lungs. Her eyes stinging with tears, and then gone before they even had a chance to fall away.

Where were her parents?

Eliza clutched her arms, and stumbled to her feet, wandering away from the last bit of civilization she knew, and into the unknown.

Some radios and old Walkmans began to hiss with static all across the city. Georgia caught wind of one and started bounding towards the banks of the Charles River, just a few blocks from Bunker Hill. Franklin followed, forcing Terrence to chase them both towards a ham radio sitting on a rock."

"...z....zzz....bzz...Hello?..." A woman's voice was fading in and out. "..test....bz..zzzz.... Testing, testing... 1, 2, 3, testing..."

The connection stabilized and a booming voice then sounded across the city-- Terrence wasn't sure how, exactly, just that it was happening.

"This is Dr. Andrea Ernst of he National Aeronautics and Space Administration, commonly known as... NASA," she said before repeating herself again. "Here at NASA, I and two other scientists have come to the same conclusion: human life cannot survive on Earth."

Blaze, now sheltering inside an abandoned ice cream store, looked up with interest. So the scientists had finally figured out what the commoners had been forced to experience?

He allowed himself a small smirk.

You walk into this room at your own risk, because it leads to the future, not a future that will be but one that might be. This is not a new world, it is simply an extension of what began in the old one. It has patterned itself after every dictator who has ever planted the ripping imprint of a boot on the pages of history since the beginning of time. It has refinements, technological advances, and a more sophisticated approach to the destruction of human freedom. But like every one of the super states that preceded it, it has one iron rule: logic is an enemy and truth is a menace.
