In the city of Seattle, a rumble occurs every 8 seconds. But these are no earthquakes. In fact, the city isn't even attached to the ground. No, these rumbles are caused by one of the city's eight great steam-powered legs. All across the world, 5 types of settlements exist.
Stalker settlements, like Seattle, are towns and cities that walk the land. Traction cities, like those such as London, ride across the land. They will both try to devour other settlements using weapons, and then pick up whatever is left with great hydraulic jaws. The last kind of settlements, mostly behind the great walls of Anti-motionists in Asia, are the static settlements we know of today. Sailing settlements are in few, but ride peacefully in the water. Air settlements, like Sailing, are friends of or anti-motionists themselves, and stay high in the sky. All 5 are friendly to Aviators, usually merchants who go around in airships selling their wares.
Every Stalker and Traction settlement has multiple tiers, open floors supported by poles, usually 10 feet higher than the tallest building. The boilers at the bottom house the furnaces which power the legs or wheels, as well as the deconstruction rooms for taking apart catches.
A city-eat-city world. That's how life came to be after World war VI, only a year after World War V. They used terrible weapons trying to kill each other, but ended up blowing themselves up. Now every city except for the anti-motionists will do everything in their power to eat each other, all for supplies. What used to be a flourishing world is now a dying one, with some corrupt governments speeding up the process. Can you save our earth, or repeat history?
((So yeah, this is a post-apocalyptic steampunk roleplay. It's sorta based of the Predator Cities series. Kinda. Not really. Well, I just hope people enjoy.))

No godmodding, Mary sue, blah blah blah- I think people have common sense, but if not I'll point some things out. Wait until I give the okay to start posting.
You all live in Seattle, Washington, unless you ask and I say okay.
Most importantly, enjoy yourself.
