This RP is based on the search for an ancient weapon that is located in an ancient vault that was established before the nuclear holocaust. There are many competing sides looking for it and all of those involved will have to search through the breadcrumbs left behind by the old world while travelling to the ends of the known world to find the key to the weapon, commonly known as the Codex. In terms of the world and the feel of this rp, think Mad Max, Indiana Jones and any epic "search for lost thing" story you can think of, then combine those.
There are a lot of political undertones going on as the various nations, city states and empires feud over land and whatever resources remain, this world is alive and things will happen as the story progresses that may not seem relevent at first, but over time the ripple effects of wars and unrest will be felt by all. The RP is realistic to a point. The people in the world are just that, people, but there is hint of surrealism within certain aspects of the world, furthermore aanother species of humanoids has formed as a result of radiation, they are gilled and blue skinned humanoids that have webbed feet and hands who are called the Sythids.
There is a brief synopsis below and a longer, more detailed one in the link at the bottom of the post.
The world where this takes place is a cruel and unforgiving place where slavery is commonplace and gladiator pits are the sport of the times, vast empires sprawl what had one been known as Germany and France and an Empire rises in the east in the remnents of China. A vast desert in the center of Eurasia, known as the badlands is home to both countless treasures and the scum of the earth, roving tribes of cannibalistic raiders and mutants prowl through the desert seeking fresh food, and all the while a super advanced society, the last remaining trove of old world tech, slowly rots from the inside as their city is slowly torn apart by crime syndicates who have as much power as the government itself. A race named the Sythids has emerged from the depths of the Black Sea, their lifestyle is reclusive and not much is known about their bubble cities in the depths of the large body of water, as only they and their aquatic mounts can reach the depths of the sea.
