2027- after a gridlock conventional war on the ground ,Iran decides to go out with a bang and launches a full scale nuclear assault along with russia against the US, Isreal, and Europe. However the perfect defense system works shooting down 100% of targets. The US retaliates with all her allies in several precision nuclear strikes. Russia and Iran fall out of the war.
2028- China surrenders and north korea is utterly destroyed. Ww3 ends with 42 million total casulties.
2029- Nuclear radiation from disabled nuclear devices is pulled to the earths magnetic poles. Unforseen side effects cause the poles to heat up melting the icecaps over the course of one single year.
2030- The Great inland Exodus begins as coastal cities populations flee inland.
2036- Ultra corp becomes the first Super corperation as they form contracts with governments around the world to build the new cities to get homes for the denizens of the now flooded coastal cities.
2042- Six more mega corperations rise up around the world, with their massive economic power they bail out collapsing governments gaining more and more power. Eventually replacing the governments altogether.
2060- With the mega cities finished the world begins to stabalize , however a new issue arrises. Vast amounts of industrialization worldwide have caused toxic pollution to mix with leftover radiation in the water and thus corrupt the earths weather cycles. A man named Aldus Soranik begins working in his own solution in his garage

2090- Omega corps completes the development of their private army just a little bit before the other coorperations. A shakey peace treaty is signed so that the people of the world will not have to suffer.
2112- After 42 years of cutthroat buisness tactics and assassinations the Coorperate wars end when Deucalion soranik at the age of 25 kills his father and claims Omega corp as his own. He ends the war by disengaging the Ozone generators. Revealing to the world just how toxic the world had become after nearly fifty years of not needing to worry about slowing down their development. Tens of millions die in only a few days. Many people flee underground into the old sewer systems and flooded cities of the old world, they become Known as Ratfolk. Omega corps becomes the sole unchallenged global monopoly.
2119- Deucalion begins his public relations campaign to build his popularity. Omega corp Unveils Vast technological advanced from their R&D department. Flying cars, Medical wonders, and convieniece sways the people to see him as a good leader.
2125- media is bought and paid for, along with the internet by omega corp granting them an informational monopoly.
2140- Deucalion unveils his plan for "immortality" proposing a life tax which collects 90% of all peoples income in exchange for free healthcare, free food, free water, free electricity, free housing, and free education. Experts theorize that with the quality of life increasing in tandem with medical sciences, potential life expectancy has risen to nearly a thousand.
2152- the Life tax wound up being a trap. Those who were fired from the company or otherwise unable to work did not have the means to pay the life tax thus preventing them from using it. And with all nessecities covered by Omega corp and some fine print of course, anyone who isn't worling
for the company cannot purchase anything. Ratfolk populations begin to rise and Deucalion decides to begin dumping toxic waste in the Ratfolks cities in order to kill off their population.
2160- Superpowers begin to manifest throughout the world. Omega corps is able to keep this under wraps with their media and data upload control. Ratfolk show the highest concentration of power development.
2168- Ratfolk rebel soldier Jerome irons Attempts assassination on Deucalion, instead the attack knocks deucalions daughter in a coma and takes the CEO's hand. Jerome escapes but deucalion survives and declares war on the rebels.
2170- Our story begins when deucalions other child runs away from home after wrecking his room in an emotional episode. Deucalion blames the ratfolk rebels thinking it to be a kidnapping. The war escelates further.

As you can see things here are a complete crapshow. In many ways the world is better than it was before, but in many more it is worse. Freedom is a thing of the past, conformity is the highest virtue now. Who will you be in this world? A rebel trying to overthrow Omega corp? A Ratfolk just trying to survive? A normal citizen trying to live a good life? Perhaps a member of Omega corp trying to maintain order? Regardless the world has fallen into imbalance and in times like this it only takes one person to Tip the scales...
(Hey guys this is a dystopian storyline i had come to mind recently. Set in a futuristic era with laser weapons and flying cars but with a huge overarching government company, there is a plot in mind and there will be ample wiggle room between the plot. Your decisions will effect the storyline, but fair warning death is a possibility in this RP. If you make mistakes in character your character can die, if that makes you uncomfortable than perhaps this RP is not for you. There are a few restrictions on character development.
1. All characters must be at least 16 years of age. There is one exception but it has been discussed and throughly covered.
2. Limit of 3 characters, when/if one of your characters dies you can replace them with a new character.
3. Any powered characters must have limitations on them, no one is above building level in their power. I will work with you in an attempt to give you what your looking for, but if i ask you to change a specific thing rest assured its for plot reasons, keep in mind i must mitigate this battle to keep it fairish.
That said Factions are important in this and its a bit late in the conflict for either side to start recruiting so i recommend starting already allied with a faction. Coordinate with our other players to forge existing relationships if you want or build them as you go your call but i wouldnt waltz into either base trying to join up...that may be a fatal mistake in these hectic wartimes.
I look forward to seeing what you guys can come up with. CS's will be up soon. To claim a spot please pop in and claim a faction (Omega corp, Ratfolk, Rebel, or civilian.)
