  The Silent City is a small town located in the middle of nowhere, somewhere in the US. Even though it is quite far from civilization, people still wander by occasionally. Whether it be hunters, vacationers, or just wanderers, they never left.
  If someone comes near the town, they will be shot by a sleep dart. Then they will be brought to the hospital and the sleep dart will be taken out and all the items they were carrying will be confiscated. A metal thorn choker aka thornament will be put on the person's throat. The person will stay at the hospital for one week so that the staff can determine whether or not the person is a threat to the city. During that time, they will also learn the sign language. After they leave the hospital, they will be assigned a job (jobs are listed in the character sections) and a living space. All the citizens in the city are taught that if they leave, they will die because other people will capture them or animals will eat them. Your very first post should be about when your character wakes up in the hospital and what they do. The end goal is for all the characters to escape the city.

  The city was originally a ghost town but a rich woman bought the town from the government and had the buildings repaired. She also got some people to join her in the town and forced them to sever ties with their family. She made them believe that she was giving them a better life. Soon, more people flocked to her town to escape their old life. Her town/city grew in abundance. In the early years of the city, everyone lived in happiness but some governemnt authorities came and demanded that all the people were released from the city.When the woman did no oblige, the authorities sent soldiers from the army to attack the city. The city survived the attack but it left them shook. The mayor then became very paranoid and had a fence put up around the city. She started enforcing tighter laws. It was no longer a blissful place to live and the mayor started treating the citizens more like slaves and made them prepare for "the next attack"from the soldiers. Anyone who did not listen to her was executed. After she died, her predecessor filled the positition as mayor. Since most of the people who had originally came into the city had died, the predecessor brainwashed the new generation into thinking that what laid beyond the city was dangerous and that if they were to leave, they would be killed. She also instilled a new work regime and new jobs. Any newcomers were forced into the lifestyle of the rest of the citizens whether they wanted to or not. Even though the people in the city were unhappy, they feared what would happen if they attempted to leave so instead, they began sending out two people out of the city each night to warn any people approaching the city what life would be like. After the mayor found out, she was infuriated so she had thornaments made and forced the citizens to wear them so they couldn't speak. She decided to force any newcomers to wear the thornaments and stay in the city. The new mayor also appointed some "officers" to oversee the jobs in the city. (Officers are the only ones in the city who can speak besides the mayor.)

  The City is surrounded by a forest of cacti and small shrubs. There are only two seasons: a hot summer and an extremely hot summer. The cacti and shrubs are seperated from the city by a tall fence which is about 30 feet high and has barbed wire at the top. The gate is locked so the only way to escape the city is to climb the fence or break through the gate. The city consist of a hospital, school, farm, cooking house, police station, meeting hall, apartments, and city hall. All the citizens live in apartments.

Would you like me to add more to the history of the town? There are some scandals that happen that lead up to the army attack thing.

I really like this concept, and I could write a good character either as a teacher or crop-worker.

A little more detail about how the citizens's lives are monitored/controlled and their interactions with police would be appreciated, but again I think this is a pretty cool concept

 

[Emmi]

Interested

 

[radical]

Wendigo_ ok

 

[Cosmos]

[radical]

Cosmos Lol I actually thought of doing a government test subject RP but I was afraid that people would say that it was to cliche. Sure, you can play a pregnant character

WHAT!? XD no, not this time of year at least, they come out around the start of a new year or during long breaks, around this time supernatural or test subjects don't seem around much~ Take this from someone who's been around a while on rpnation :3 I mean, I would be happy to develop an idea for one with yourself? I love creating plots but hate being a gm for rp's "^w^ owo//

 

[radical]

Cosmos I might actually do a government test subject RP after this one. Whenever I hear about government experiments, it always reminds me of Stranger Things lol
