After the first catastrophe, innocent lives were shattered as the rebellion continued against the government's and ODD's best attempts to silence them. As the afterevents of the first catastrophe were settling, things had already begun falling into action.

After the events of the first catastrophe, under codename [HELLEVUUR] or [HV.], the world was quiet. People were in fear or they were dead. The events were logged and later archived under Odyssey databases:

The apocalypse has begun. Media all over is going crazy. I can't take it here. In countries like Canada, Japan, [████] and Denmark, large [geysers] the size of cities had erupted as if the world was being punctured from the inside out. Those countries and most of the area around them are still hot and burning [with lava]. Many people are screaming outside even now. I can hear them. They're claiming gods are punishing us for our faults. Are they right? Even where I am, the climate has felt unbearable. It has gotten significantly hotter. I am not close to any of the major volcanoes either. Is the world ending? I am writing this down as a hope that one day, someone will find my words and derive meaning from them. Will they even know what my words [mean]? Will they speak English? Will my book burn of the hellfire brought forth from the-

After the events of the first catastrophe occurred, two main factions formed: the Odyssey Defense and Development and the Rebellion. The Odyssey Defense and Development was formed as a result of governments banding together under one name, to form the strongest military and political committee in history. As a result of this, people around the world reactively grouped against the ODD to protest their new government. The ODD initially ignored the rebellion until they started causing terrorism attacks throughout major cities. Some theorize this was a reaction from the rebellion discovering malicious intent from ODD, while others believe the rebellion was just causing trouble. Even the general public was split on who caused the first dispute between them.

During the ODD and Rebellion's conflicts, everyone else had their concerns within the world. Unexpected to all, there was another. The second apocalyptic event had caused yet another major issue with the world. Under codename [TIEFKUHLTRUHE] or [TKT], this nullified the effects of the first apocalypse, although bringing forth a new problem to the world leaders. Also known as the Deepfreeze, the second catastrophe froze over the lava-covered areas, resulting in a barren wasteland made of charcoal and obsidian. Even after [██] years, ODD still has not ventured deep into the Wasteland under fear of its effects on the human body.

Unbeknownst to both the ODD and the rebellion, the second catastrophe had curious side effects to those in the most affected areas. This phenomenon is codenamed Atrophy. Some select people were "infected" with strange abilities that were unknown to normal people. Most people die from this infection, approximating a 98% fatality rate. This infection occurs slowly and will take anywhere from 10 to 50 years for a fatal result. The infection affects everyone differently, and powers or abilities will differ between subjects.

During the third catastrophe, the ODD was ready. Due to their preparation with the nomadic cities, they had successfully avoided the earthquakes and mountains which erupted from the landscape. We are currently anticipating the fourth. It has been 14 years since the first catastrophe, 9 years since the second and 5 years since the third. Another one should come soon.

[div class=heading]factions[/div] Due to the events of the catastrophes, there have been intense conflicts between organizations and groups due to different ideologies and beliefs. There are four main (playable) factions.

[div class=statblock] [div class=statname] ODYSSEY DEFENSE AND DEVELOPMENT[/div][/div] The Odyssey Defense and Development is an organization formed shortly after the first apocalyptic events and catastrophes which occurred around the globe. During this time, world leaders all around combined to form the ODD, which was the only line of defense against the coagulating and developing rebellions all throughout the world.

[div class=statblock] [div class=statname] REBELLION[/div][/div] The rebellion is a group of people who do not believe in the government's ideologies and plans for the future. Starting off as groups of people around the globe who did not approve of the government's involvement with people after the first catastrophe, they have started to become more advanced with strategy ever since the second. They do not like I-Lab due to them believing their experiments take away from the rebellion's potential power.

[div class=statblock] [div class=statname] ICHOR LABORATORIES[/div][/div]The Ichor Laboratories specialize in research towards Atrophy and what caused it. As result, many infected people get jobs here to test their abilities and powers outside of combative situations. I-Lab does not agree with the ODD for its mistreatment towards infected people.

[div class=statblock] [div class=statname] KAMIK-OPERATORS[/div][/div]One of the only truly neutral organizations in Odyssey, they allow for any other organization to "loan" powerful operators. These operators will carry out any task they are told to, and acts as an additional member of that organization. The price of a Kamik-Operator however, is steep and increases the more you wish them to do.

The four main organizations, excluding the K-Operators, generally have political tensions between them. Neither of them will work with each other, causing problems for the organizations and the civilians.

[div class=heading]locations[/div] Our world is damaged and torn apart. Because of the catastrophes that have occurred throughout our world, many environments are not suitable for human living conditions any longer. We at Odyssey Defense and Development bring you the first of our new generation, Cærmen. Cærmen is a self-sustaining, locomotive city that will house our world's citizens. It includes protection against natural disasters thanks to our brand new, military-grade defenses! We will soon be launching more of these locomotive, nomadic cities, so start packing! Haha!

- Excerpt from Cærmen City Advertisement, 2XXX

After the events of the first two catastrophes, the ODD began construction on the nomadic cities that populate the earth today. These cities float at about 1500 feet above the earth's surface but can reach up to 3000 feet in case of emergency.

Listed below are the largest cities which make up the majority of where the population resides.

[div class=statblock] [div class=statname] CÆRMEN[/div][/div] The first city of the new world. Cærmen acts as the capital city, or like a hub towards the rest of the cities. There is always at least one direct path to Cærmen from another city. There is a fine balance between light and dark, and some of the most drastic events occur at Cærmen. Most politicians and important figures in society reside in Cærmen, but there's always an assortment of criminals.

[div class=statblock] [div class=statname] ZOETLECHT[/div][/div] Zoetlecht is where the offices of Odyssey Defense and Development and Ichor Laboratories reside. The most diverse of the nomadic cities, you will find always find an assortment of people in Zoetlecht. Most scientists and government workers reside in Zoetlecht, with an assortment of operators as well.

[div class=statblock] [div class=statname] XIAN[/div][/div] The town of Xian, which is rich with culture. Infamous for its busy shopping districts and shady deals, Xian is one of the most popular of the cities. One of the rebellion's largest bases is in Xian, but so is the Kamik-Operators base. Many celebrities, operators and criminals choose to reside in Xian, rarely seeing any government-based workers.

[div class=statblock] [div class=statname] AMBROSE[/div][/div] As its name suggests, this city was built to maintain the oxygen levels on the earth as much as possible. As forests burn and climate down below changes, the vast greenhouses and artificial forests in Ambrose keep the air clean. Ambrose Developments is the company responsible for the development of green technology. Strangely, not many people reside in Ambrose albeit an abundance of space.

[div class=statblock] [div class=statname] FALLEN CITY[/div][/div] Previously being known as Seslucion, the fallen city lays at the surface of the earth, untouched by the catastrophes due to the technology protecting it. No one speaks of this city anymore; the tragedy of the malfunction was too much to bear for many citizens of the world. Sometimes, brave rebellion members choose to come down here to look for information.

To travel to different cities, pathways are opened when the cities are close enough to each other. Every city has a scheduled path, and it will almost never be disconnected for more than a day.

[div class=heading]rules + requirements[/div] Hello there! What started out as an experimental bbcoding place and a way for me to vent out my interest in arknights has become an rp. I hope people do find this interesting and join. :0

1. 2 will be our character limitation for now. If you want to have a third character, contact me!

2. Maiming or killing others in the RP is strictly forbidden unless both parties consent to it and it's consequences. Feel free to injure or kill NPCs as long as they are yours.

3. Respect your fellow roleplayers! A positive environment makes for a better community.

4. In order to actively participate in this RP, I believe you will need at least 1 paragraph per post. I generally will be loose with the requirements; I understand sometimes writing is hard or creativity falters. TLDR; no one-liners.

5. Post often! If possible, try to post at least once every one or two weeks (depends on how fast our RP is going). Especially if others are interacting with you, try not to leave them hanging! Personally, I know all about getting bored of an RP (it's happened to me... countless times). If you feel like leaving or don't feel committed to this RP anymore, just shoot me a message.

6. If you wish to join the rp, you will have to join the discord first. It can be found here!
