Gotta Stop the Bad Guys!

Steamy Pacific/Desert Cyber-Punk Adventure! - Most of the world is covered in a big fat desert where everyone's a nomad! Out there it's an 80's scifi adventure, with hammy bad guys and CRT monitors and hovercrafts and robots and lasers! Tech is mostly kinda obsolete out there.

Then there's the Big O's, hugeoid oceans with bunches of tiny islands sprinkled in them! So cute! And the Siegliesch Empire wants to take over them all with their evil Wasser Gruppen!! No fun! They're trying to steal the coasts from the inherently good and native civilisation, the Goug Machine Republic. They're soft-hearted and always there to lend a helping hand! They constantly clash with the evil Siegs! They're outnumbered by the Empire's conscripted legions, but their progressive society means they attract a lot of intelligent and free-thinking chaps. They make up for their lack of numbers with badass tech!

Important Thing!: Player list is NOT first come first serve.
And you don't have to be human, but know that you won't be making that race prolific in the setting so everyone else will remain hooman.

Yummy Cotton Candy Fluff Stuff!
There are cities made of metal on the islands where the Gougs live but their people are small in number with a very powerful industry so everyone's living upper class (technically, by their standards there is no social class). Each home is uniquely built, but the trend is tall, with lots of windows, and large gears sticking out of the sides; part of the machinery that runs the tools in a Goug craftsman's shop. They're all artists or merchants, professionals of some kind.

Outside in the desert, the people are nomads. Over 90% of the people in the world fall into this category. There are small tribal villages clustered around oases out in the desert proper, but where you'll find a lot of people coming and going are the sprawling Bazaar Towns that stretch all the way around the big oceans. Lots of fishing and trading and business goes on there.

Them Siegs live in scary concrete fortresses, some larger than even the machine cities. They make big bases that they abandon when they need to move, and their people live in structured dorms inside the walls. The military is the foundation of everything in their society, and both adult men and women fight. There is no place for civilians in their lifestyle. While the Gougs make everything themselves from the metal they harvest from the ocean bed, the Siegs are scavengers. They're hunters of Lostech that's buried and scattered throughout the desert. It's where people get lasers and tanks and robots and whatsuch. Cool stuff like that.

A combination of both. Like massive desserts surrounded by a sea full of adventure with both villains to fight at different times!

Because trying to stuff Fate/Whatever's engrish and the title of a 17th century book on statecraft into Pokemon syntax tends to make the content incomprehensible.

Name: Cavendish "Cavalier" Wales.
Gender: Male
Age: 83
Race: Squishy hooman of course!! But with Metal reinforcements through most of their body.
Appearance: Smokin', naturally! But leaning on the side of wiry...
Ambition: What drives you to develop this strange new power?! Trained their entire life to be the best, and not going to let anything stop them now!
Circumstances: A veteran of countless battles, they have crossed the world to prove that they can save the noble natives. Riding aboard the fearsome Grey Earl, a three metre tall armoured hovercraft that has been gradually upgraded from assorted salvage and the occasional reward. The Earl is notable for its bulbously triangularface, the three large jets protruding from its rear body, the five turreted cannons protruding in all directions, and the ominous port above its nose which conceals a powerful, if slow to fire energy weapon that runs over more than half the length of the vessel.
 Cav personally possesses a deceptively-light but dense-looking form which conceals various structural augmentations using a mysterious material that was installed early in their life when they volunteered as a test subject for an experimental program. Some unusual property of the material seems to retard the aging process, but sadly the site was apparently destroyed shortly after the procedure took place, and Cavalier was never informed as to precisely what the material was.
 Their supplies are largely sparse, although they have an extensive supply of assorted weapons gathered over years of combat, none of the latest models, but all proven in battle.

Ooooh, so that's what you meant by Most Voted Sheet getting chosen. And here was I thinking it was a suggestion game.

Name: Lugh Sonken
Gender: Male
Age: 21
Race: Human
Appearance: Well fed.  Keeps a shaved head and beard. He sports a ratty collared leather jacket with an image of a snake emerging from turtles shell on the back and a grimy pair of shades.
Ambition: HE'S going to be the man to conquer the world. Not those fucking Nazi pricks
Circumstances: He was born into a family of criminals and he spent his youth raiding and extorting various businesses within the slums of some coastal cities. People called them the "Land Locked Raiders" and they terrorized a certain costal city. Eventually a joint effort of vigilantes, bounty hunters, and rival criminals sought to snuff out the Sonken family once and for all.

They failed and now he's all alone in the world living out of apartment building in the slums. All he has to his name is his leather Jacket, shades, and  his trusty pair of cestus emblazoned with a steel and jeweled Sonken family emblem, a sun with a X made of two great spears. His great grandfather used to tell him that the Sonken family emblem represented some sort of artifact his ancestors apparently stole from an angry Sun God that swore revenge, and that its visage had some sort of mystical property. Ever since Lugh got his spark, he feels...closer to the gloves for some reason.
TL;DR
virtually penniliess, alone, all he has is a fancy pair of cetuses that may or may not be magical.
