introduction.
This thread is based on the Netflix show, The Society, but you don't have to have watched it to participate in this thread. The basic idea is that the town's juniors and sophomores are sent on a field trip, but when they have to come home early they realize everyone is gone. The internet isn't working, the roads out of town have disappeared, and the teens are entirely on their own. Our main goal will be to, well, survive. We will need to figure out who the leaders are, create a set of rules, and grow up quite a bit. This thread will be incredibly based on group dynamics, so just have fun with your plots and let's create a ton of drama.

the town
The town of Redwick is your typical small town in the midwest. Everyone knows everyone else and pretty much everyone is Christian, white, and rich. Or, the parents are at least. There are a few sectors of the town, including the business, residential, and government areas. Some of the poorer students may not live in town, so their homes may be gone. Feel free to ask me to add things here if your character has somewhere they hang out or a business their parents own.
the sectors & buildings
GOVERNMENT SECTOR- This is where all the government buildings are. These include but are not limited to Town Hall, the fire department, Redwick High, the church, the library, and a very small synagogue. In the center, there is also a park where many families spend their days.
BUISNESS SECTOR- This is where all the shops and restaurants are in Redwick. There is also an apartment complex called Greenwood in this area.
-Ashley's Place:
A restaurant in the business sector known for their diner atmosphere and delicious burgers. It's mostly frequented by church-going elders in the mornings and during school, and just after lunch it caters to all crowds alike. In the mornings, the owners, Charlie Paulson and Ashley Paulson, a tall woman with frizzy-wild hair and a short man with a stocky build, run the place, but they resign management to Sloane Harper after 7 p.m on Thursday-Saturday. After 4 p.m., the establishment attracts more teens looking for a hang-out space than anything else, and after 9 p.m., it attracts the delinquent crowd that is only shooed out should they cause trouble for the staff or other patrons. They have a sturdy ping-pong table and air hockey table in a small room to the back, separate from the dining area that's locked until 11:30 a.m. Their diner looks somewhat modern, but it was built out of an old warehouse building. They worked with what they had to open it up, and it shows, but the food is impeccable and everything is home made. The diner is closed on Sundays.
-Midtown Arcade & Pizza
A rusty, hole-in-the-wall arcade in the business district that attracts nerds and occasionally delinquents. Open Monday - Saturday from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m on the arcade, and 3 a.m. on pizza delivery. It's a pretty grimy, greasy place, and the cheap pizza isn't any good, but it occasionally hosts video game tournaments. It's home to a lot of stray nerds and younger kids, as well as teenagers with jobs running pizza all over town. The arcade itself is pretty big and houses over 100 cart games, including around 10 bigger ones such as Dance Dance Revolution and two virtual reality racing games that are connected together. Overall, the place rakes in a lot of cash for cheap, low quality food and mid-quality entertainment.
-Juno Peaks Coffee
A small coffee shop in the center of the business district that caters to teens that seem to think they're better than everyone else, creative types, and rare left-wing adults. They serve a lot of fancy different coffees and several different light meals. They're usually open all week, 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., but they occasionally will close up as the business is owned by a single owner that will go on trips unannounced. The atmosphere is very stark, modern, and sleek. They have a loft side room filled with foam-filled bags for lying on with a television that quietly chimes soft, calming music from video games or the like.
RESIDENTIAL SECTOR- The residential area is separated into three areas, based on social class. The higher class lives in an area known as Greenwich Hills, middle class resides in Oak Grove, and lower class in Echo Lane.
-Brighton Estates
A community of nicely-built new age homes in a suburb community just outside the business sector and a subdivision of Greenwich Hills. All of the houses are less than five years old, and the minimum bedroom count in every one is four. The community itself is small, with only ten or so houses due to the size of them, and most that live in it know each other rather well. Most of the houses have an amenity in their back yard, such as a swimming pool, a hot tub, a sauna, or etc. All of the lawns are neatly kept by paid gardeners and each house flourishes with a small flower garden out front. Every house sports a two-car garage and a spacious design, calling the richer sects of the town.
OUSKIRTS- At the moment, nothing is known about this place. Where there used to be roads, there is just wilderness. As we explore, things will be added here.

characters
Each character will be based off of a specific high school stereotype, or set of stereotypes. Each will have a description that I have written, or you have to write one for yourself. These should be at least two or three sentences long. When they are crossed off, that means the position is taken. Some ideas that haven't been taken are the valedictorian, the queen bee, the dumb blonde, the wallflower, etc.
roles
THE THEATER KID- this is one of the mayor's children. organized by their mother, this character started theater at a very young age in order to make the family look good. they are rather outgoing, but rather ostracized by their family and the higher class crowd, as they are a bit edgier than what is expected of them. they aren't great at school or anything in particular besides acting,singing, and dancing.
THE STAR ATHLETE- yeah, you saw this one coming. perhaps they do poor in school, perhaps they excel - up to the player. they are incredibly athletic and could outrun or outfight anyone who dares to try crossing their path. they are mean and bully those under them - whether or not this meanness is true or an act is up to the player. generally stays near other popular kids. they are the mayor's other child and probably male
THE GOODY-TWO-SHOES- the one who's never done anything wrong in their lives. they worked hard to get good grades throughout high school. they never got drunk, never did drugs and only did what they believed was right. in every bad idea the others come up with, they is always in the background, tentatively watching.
THE STONER- they are always incredibly high, this person is the stereotypical one who would be sitting under the bleachers smoking at lunch. they constantly seems out of it and is a bit of a loner, save for a small group of others like them
THE BASKET CASE- One school has at least one. The kid on the edge of dropping out, smoking weed in the bathroom, and swimming in demerits. They're one-punishment away from getting kicked out of school and everyone knows at least one crude, mean rumor about them. Unlike a Rebel or a Delinquent generally does, The Basket Case is more likely to crack and cry under pressure and lock themselves away. Mostly they can be found avoiding school events, ditching class with the delinquents in a desperate attempt to fit in, or acting out to get attention just to crumble at the repercussions. They're a falling apart mess of emotions fighting the world at all odds, and boy, did the universe ever deal them a really shitty hand of cards.
THE COLLEGIATE SCHMOOZER- If you went to school, you knew them. They were a smiling, happy face involved in every single club and every single after school activity. They stayed out of trouble, but mainly they tried their best to do literally anything and everything to get a full scholarship ride to college. Maybe they poured their life into a sport by spending their entire breathing time to working out, or maybe they over-did literally everything to build a resume since their parents gave birth to them. Or maybe, just maybe, it's their parents' money secretly paying for the whole facade. Regardless, they'll always boast about their ivy-league dreams while getting wasted in someone's basement, waiting for it all to fall apart if they were to get caught.
