| “This is not the world they promised. Its not the country they dreamed. They promised it would get better--what a load of shit. But we listened, ate up those sweet spoon-fed lies. It all went to hell with Cuba. We’d been in ‘Nam seven years and when the damn Russians threatened to ship their missiles we couldn’t help but respond, as tangled with the bear as we were. Well, they called our bluff and shipped the damn things over. Cue the worst war in US history. We were stretched too thin and things got out of hand. Long and short of things, we lost. The big dog of world war two had been neutered, and Russia stepped up to take its place. We lost our world power status, and things went to shit from there. We’re nothing more than a second rate hellhole now…” Welcome to Cranston City, a large city in New Hampshire. The year is 1999. New years eve. The city is celebrating the new millennia. You? You’re just another lowlife stuck in the slums trying to scratch out a living in the big city. The streets are filthy. The air is worse. And the people? They come in three varieties. Those who have money--they’re far away, living the life you want to live. In fancy houses with fancy clothes and everything they could ever want. Those like you--working shit jobs for shit pay. Crappy apartments you can barely afford and living paycheck to paycheck. Then there’s those with nothing--the homeless, the vagabonds, the used-up-worn-out addicts. Literal scum of the earth. You’d almost feel sorry for them, if you weren’t wrapped up in your own bitter existence. The big city holds all kinds of thrills and temptations for the unwary soul. Gangs are rampant, drugs, alcohol, and sex are the leading money makers in your slice of the city. All too often they are the only things that provide some shred of relief from the horrors of everyday life. How you celebrate the new year is your choice…but the new day begins all too soon and you’ll be hauled back to your routine. Rules:My word is law If you join this, commit. If you don’t commit, your character will be killed off There’s no limit on characters No characters under the age of 17. This is a mature RP, as such I encourage you to not shy away from anything. However, due to the sensitivities of some of the members of this site I ask that anything of the graphic sexual nature you put in a spoiler tag. If you’re unsure if what you write is too graphic or not, just shoot me a pm and I’ll let ya know. This will take place for the most part in one small unnamed section of New York. Feel free to take artistic liberty with this part of the city, as it’s not real anyways. You’re all just ordinary people, there’s nothing special about any of you Keep things realistic. This is meant to be an emulation of real life, so the laws of physics apply. So does common sense for that matter Finally, this RP will have no set plot. As such, we’re all going to have to work together to keep it running. Out of ideas? Talk with other players and see what you can come up with. Character Sheet:Name:Age:Appearance:Profession:

Her black hair is worn in thin dreadlocks that reach to her waist, with random purple dreads scattered through her hair as accents. A number of tattoos decorate her body. Her left nostril is decorated with a silver ring, She has an industrial piercing in her left ear with one single piercing in her left lobe. Her right ear has two rings in the lobe. One ring highlights the center of her lower lip. Her nipples are also pierced. Her everyday attire tends to follow the trends of the industrial and rivet head scenes, and her work attire is no different--there’s just less of it. Her hazel eyes are often ringed in dark make-up and she seems to prefer purples and reds in her lipsticks. Profession: Bartender. Stripper.

Due to the large lack of professional hairdressers or barbers around, he has resorted to letting his hair grow down to his shoulders, though he admits that he likes it that way. When not at work in his heavy apron, he's often seen with his regular attire of shirt, jeans, boots and his black coat. Often times he can be seen scratching frustratedly at a thick stubble.

| Spot Reservation, If you would be so kind. (Sorry if my account hasn't been on in a few months. I tend just to ghost about on here from day to day. I've been on, but have been committed to other groups until now. Hope we can pick traffic back up in here!) | |

| Accepted.
Also, the second post here is the character section, where I'll list all the characters and who they belong to. My character can be found there. I'm hoping to start this around the middle of next week, seeing as I'll be out of town the 3rd and 4th. So, let's get those sheets done people! I'm looking forward to getting this thing rolling. | |

| A NOTE: Due to confusion, I've changed the location to a large, fictional city. Also, be aware that this is an alternate history/alternate universe. It is not modern day and the world will not act like our modern day one does. | |
