Hello everyone, The Afterman here.
I am making this interest check to poke around and see who would be interested in this idea I have. The idea itself is a reboot of a roleplay I had back on RolePlayGateway. The setting was a western-themed post apocalyptic world inspired by such works as the Dark Tower book series, Fallout/Borderlands, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, Red Dead Revolver/Redemption, etc.
The setting is a place called Pandorum, the remains of Earth in the aftermath of a horrendous war that ended in the detonation of the "Lightbringer," a mysterious yet powerful atomic weapon that saw the destruction of the world and has since then become something of a myth.
The world is rebuilding slowly, with ramshackle towns dotting the map, as well as hurriedly-rebuilt cities serving as bustling trade hubs.
The world around our characters would be like that of a western, with people trying to make their way in this run-down habitat utilizing any means to survive. Outlaws, and the bounty hunters contracted to take them down, are frequent, town sheriffs are a common sight, and the people live simple lives under the heels of the more successful. All in all, it is a place where one is just trying to survive.
The roleplay will not follow a set, overarching story, but serve to tell the stories of each individual character, follow how those stories evolve, and how they intertwine with other characters'.
Hopefully this idea sounds appealing, and I'd love to get some feedback on it.
Thank you for reading, and I look forward to hearing from you.
