PROJECT: FIREFLY
The third world war left mostly ashes and rubble in its wake, having unleashed a nuclear chaos so great that, twenty-two years later, the world still struggles to build itself back up from the wreckage. Radioactive matter now lingers in the atmosphere, ominous and ever-present, swallowing the world in complete darkness. Sirens go off to herald the B L A C K R A I N, a torrent of acid so toxic they can cause irritations and bruises on the skin and deteriorate infrastructures.
While all this mayhem unfolds in the background, the government, in its fumbling state, grapples to maintain its hold on society by relying on private corporations. As an inevitable result, these corporations have risen to power. One such example is B I O T E C H, a company based in Las Vegas that is geared towards technological experiments. Through the help of BioTech, Vegas has managed to rebuild itself from the ashes faster than any other city could, despite suffering near-obliteration from the war. Taking on a new name but retaining its unique flavor as a city of entertainment and debauchery, New Vegas—otherwise known as S A L V A T I O N C I T Y—continues to prosper.
However, as small groups begin to rebel and rising corporations attempt to overthrow BioTech from its seat of power, drastic measures must be taken. For that reason, BioTech has pioneered P R O J E C T : F I R E F L Y. Criminals and misfits alike are given a choice between lifelong servitude to the government or banishment to the Outlands, where an almost certain death awaits them. It is a contract signing with the devil as they sell their souls to the government, only to be used as weapons against BioTech’s many rival companies.
With state-of-the-art technology and augmentations both seamless and unrefined, each Firefly has their own unique skillset and design. They live comfortably within BioTech’s headquarters and are paid a small sum as a reward for their efforts, but they cannot afford luxury. Fireflies spend most of their days within a golden cage where their entire lives are regulated and monitored, awaiting their next mission.

Godmodding, powerplaying, metagaming, and the likes are strictly forbidden.
No OOCs in any of the threads. There is a discord server where all OOC chatter should take place. Alternatively, you can PM me if you have any questions.
Please do not post WIPs/reserves in any of the threads. There is a testing area for that. Post complete or don't post at all.
Make sure that all your posts are mobile friendly or at least have a plain, code-free mobile version.
No one-liners, no novels. Quality takes precedence, but posts should be at least one paragraph or ten sentences each.
Let me know if you're going on hiatus and when we should expect you to come back.
If you want to drop out, please say so. I may request you to put your character sheet in a spoiler, but that’s all I will ask of you before you leave.
Please keep the OOC drama-free and respect each other. If you experience any issues, you are encouraged to take it up with me privately.
Only one character is allotted per role-player. Eventually, I might let folks create additional characters, provided that they have shown consistent activity throughout the role-play.
