I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a roleplay based on the 2006 TV show Jericho.
It wouldn't be in the town of Jericho, but it would take place during the events and deal with many of the same struggles that the people in the show have.
For those who have never seen the show, here's a quick synopsis:
The storyline centers on the residents of Jericho, a small northwest Kansas town, in the aftermath of a limited nuclear attack on 23 major cities in the contiguous United States. The series begins with a visible nuclear detonation of unknown origin in nearby Denver. Problems are compounded by loss of power and modern communications, effectively isolating Jericho. Later, power is restored to Jericho by what is alluded to as the efforts of the U.S. government. However, an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) from an unknown source disables all electronics.
While the first few episodes are centered around restoring life after the attacks, about halfway through the season some of the citizens meet with citizens of a nearby town, New Bern. At first, relations are established, resulting in a trade of windmills (for power) built in New Bern's factory for supplies for food from Jericho's farms and salt from its mine (neither of which New Bern could supply on its own). However, relations sour as New Bern scapegoats Jericho for its problems, and the New Bern sheriff eventually declares war, leading to the season's climactic end.
