REWARDS:
$1,000,000,000,000
AND ANY OTHER THINGS YOU CAN FIND AT THEIR BASE OR ON THE CULPRITS.
OUR INSIDE SOURCES SAY THAT THEY HAVE $10,000 AT THE MOMENT, BUT THIS CANNOT STAND. YOU MUST SEIZE THIS OPPORTUNITY AND CLAIM YOUR FORTUNE FROM THESE DASTARDLY CRIMINALS.
this righteous message is brought to you by Mayor Laren. And "Leopold's Buy 'n' Sell Store". Buy and Sell to your hearts content.
You are one of the Reachers, a group of freedom-fighters in the futuristic wastelands of Laronda. The government is hunting you for your righteous crimes, and you must escape this capture through a multitude of ways, such as; gunfights, bribery, spreading rumors, and many others. This will be mostly focusing on role playing, and as such the combat and other things will be simpler than most things. Most of it will be luck-based, and will just be determined by a d20. I will control the mayor and other political figures, which are the ones out to get you. You will only know of their plans if you send a spy or something though.
Name:
Gender:((Gender identity.))
Sex:((What parts you got.))
Race: ((The available races are listed below.))
Description:((What they look like, how they think, etc.))
Stats: ((You get 7 points to start with, as they will only be used on special occasions. Everything starts at 1.))
Strength:1((How buff you are.))
Intelligence:1((How smart you are.))
Moxie:1((How sly and persuasive you are.))
Willpower:1((How strong of mind you are.))
Dexterity:1((How agile you are))
Human: Just your average ape-descendant life form.
Rotak: A humanoid insect, that can look like a wasp, ant or beetle. Occasionally there will be a genetic mix-up, and a wasp and an ant will mate and birth a spider. Nobody knows how it works, but the mutants are generally outcast. They are quite quick, and strong, but lack intelligence.
Cylian: A mechanical organism, created by The Past Ones when they had first grasped the ability to create sentient A.I. They spend most of their lives being used for tasks too hard for humans to perform, but occasionally they break free of this slavery and go out and enjoy life. Sadly, most of them are too unaware of life's dangers to enjoy it, as they usually just walk three steps and get eaten by a sand worm. They are quite strong, and intelligent despite not being worldly-wise. They lack agility however, due to their mechanical weight.
Vampyrus: A humanoid bat-creature, which uses the claws at the end of it's wings for hands. It is nocturnal, but can go outside while wearing a visor. Being nocturnal also helps it see in the dark, via echolocation. They are fast and deceptive, but lack strength. They also lack opposable thumbs, but can still use guns. Somehow.
I will allow people to come up with their own ideas for races, but I will only accept 3 more, because I don't want to have a billion histories to keep track of.
Any ideas people come up with will go here:
Also, I will gladly accept any ideas on more features, because I think it would be cool to see what ideas you guys have.
Currency: You can earn money in many ways, such as stealing it, selling fenced goods, selling legally obtained goods, or even mapping out unexplored areas for cartographers.
Mercenaries: You can hire mercenaries to join your crew for a couple of days, but for a price. They will then leave unless paid more. Sometimes people will actually just join your cause, and won't leave unless you make them.
The world of Laronda is a harsh place, with most of it's land lying undiscovered due to the dangerous flora and fauna. There are mostly marshes and deserts, along with the occasional oasis of grasslands. There is one major settlement in a wasteland, known as The Empire, run by Mayor Laren and the government. Not many of the residents ever leave this place, due to the sand-worm infested dunes outside of it's giant walls. There is the occasional settlement outside of The Empire, but they are usually set up on the occasional mountains.
The Reachers hideout is located, of all places, underground in a sand-worm nest. The First Reachers cleared it out and it has served them since then. Sand-worms generally deter from other's nests, so they are safeguarded by that.
The world was originally colonized by what are now known as the Past Ones. They built the Empire, before splitting into two groups. The Imperials, and The Reachers. The Mayor was never actually decided by election, and it is actually a monarchy system.
The Reachers' forces have dwindled over time, and they are but a small group of friends now. But their time is coming, and they are building their forces up for this years election, when they will ((all things going according to plan.)) take over the Empire and set the people free. But they have a lot to do before they can get to that part.
