One Thousand Club
The world didn't end in one day. In fact it didn't really end at all. The Old World fell apart and many died, but people adapted, and a new way of life became business as usual. In the vast ruined world law and order returned to tiny regions ruled by gangs and networks of cities that call themselves "empires." The world looks far different from what it once did and death is almost as common as the acid rain.
In what was once called "Colorado" is an oppressive regime called The Nobility. These assholes have taken all the guns they could find and are guarding all means of knowledge and the secrets of the Old World. There once was a gang, feared throughout the wastes known as The Bastards, but all are assumed dead or defected to other factions.
That is false, however. A single member survives and seeks to strike at the Nobility once more, but his thirst for revenge might get the better of him. This is the story of him an his gang.
The Setting
Snow falls on the ruined city of Danver and the surrounding areas as more clouds have come to block out the sun. It hasn't really been warm for a while, guess someone still has bombs to fire off elsewhere in the world. But bombs aren't the only reason everything is fucked up. The ruling governments of old unleashed their chemical and viral arsenals in the last major attempts to destroy each other. Maybe they are the reason for Black Vein, a disease that makes you feel like Superman for a day, then a vegetable for three before ultimately killing you, or the hostile wildlife moving in on the city.
The Nobility rules the streets of Danver and the regions north to the Wastes of Wyoming, but they are not our only problems. The Eastern Badlands are inhabited by countless tweaker tribes and gangs, and nobody knows what lay west of the mountains. While powerful, The Nobility isn't exactly unified, with different "Houses" struggling for a greater share of the power.
This RP will focus on the characters, the new Bastards gang, working towards the goal of taking down the Nobility. There will be no point system and I will entrust you, the players, to aid in the creation of an interesting tale.
