The wastes of Voronin (played anonymously)

Life, nature, machine...

The Orokin City revolves around these principles. Sustaining life, preserving nature and praying to the machine. The flying city of Orokin is a utopia for it's citizens, a machine of steam and the arcane, a place free of crime and prejudice.

Below the city, the planet surface of Voronin lies a baron wasteland, little nature stands to exist, with only small patches of forest left standing amongst the endless dry sand and dirt-scape. Those that transgress against the city are banished, exiled to the wastes of the planet below, far from the pleasures of the utopian city far above.

The interior of the walking jail is lined with rusted metal and piles of dirt, the only cleaners are the rodents that pick clean the corpses of those prisoners who don't make it, dying of exposure to the intense heat generated by the steam generators that power this colossal metal beast.

A seeming eternity passes before reaching the destination, weeks- possibly months- fly by in the walking jail until finally, it grinds to a halt. The murmuring groans of other prisoners rise in volume as they question what is happening, their naturally scared demeanor obvious as they scream and wail, demanding to be told what's going on. Without warning, the hard metal floors swing open, dropping the prisoners from their cells tens of feet to the ground.

With a heavy thud, you land on the soft, grainy sand below. It's a painful landing for sure, but you are confident you haven't injured yourself in the fall. Wiping yourself of the loose sand, you find yourself standing in a wasteland...


Take part in this new campaign-style group role play I've created an entire system. Create a character, fight and rummage your way through the baron wastes against insects, crazed raiders and countless nightly horrors, and see how long you can last in this classic rogue like text-based rpg inspired role play!

I'm only looking for a few players at the current point in time, so slots are limited.
Magic 60%
Magic may be accepted as truth but is not common. It might be harnessed only by specific beings. Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones.
Technology 70%
Further future, perhaps visit mars or upload your brain
Combat 70%
More combat than not. The setting may be at war, and the characters will likely get involved whether or not they seek it out.

Details: Character sheets & strict mechanics, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.

Do you still have slots open for this? And do you want us to use characters we have up on RPR already, or would you rather we create completely new ones?

Hey! I certainly do!
I would prefer you create a new character if you're able to. This is designed to be played with a fresh character that will develop and evolve as you play. There is more information on character creation in the group, however, if you want to create the general idea for the character that would be great! Just know that you will start with nothing but the clothes on your back. So no overpowered characters and/or abilities!

Sweet! Then just ignore the join request I sent, 'cuz I derped and used Duran's page. ^^;

Also, what sorts of ranged weapons will eventually be available? Would a character eventually be able to have a firearm/magic-based laser weapon?

So basic firearms are common, such as flintlock pistols and the such, however makeshift firearms will be available to craft out of scrap metal and the like. Magic is handled through the use of arcane stones, which each are like a useable spell with a set amount of uses. The stone can also be be infused into certain weapons and the such.
Awesome. Thanks!
If there are slots still open, would you consider allowing me to join? I’m new to RPR, but not to text- based roleplay.

This is an interesting setting, I’ll be looking forward to your reply. Thank you.
I you haven't heard back yet, I'd suggest sending a PM. :)
