Protagonist
One Thousand Club
I was thinking I'd like to start an RP based on the biblical tribulation, or more accurately, based on tribulation fiction based on the biblical tribulation. Unlike most fiction of the genre which take place about 20 minutes from now, our RP will start in the year 2113, and have a sort of cyberpunk style to it (sort of like Deus Ex meets Left Behind or the Christ Clone Trilogy, especially the latter). Existing technologies include Cybernetics, Genetic Engineering, Sentient AI, Force Fields, Nanotechnology, and Giant Mecha. There's even a Moon Colony.
Our story takes place 5 years after the Great Disaster, a single event where a 3rd of the world instantly dropped dead. Governments fell, economies collapsed, and the world fell into chaos. In an effort to reestablish order, an international relief effort known as the Global Confederation has been established. It was initially very successful, managing to put the world back on its feet. However, over the last 2 years, one particular political leader known as Daniel Zale has started to rise in power. Some fear that he is highjacking the organization...and they're right. Zale has established a global currency, and a global secular religion (it's essentially a religion which worships a very vague idea of 'humanity' rather than any cosmic force) run by the newly appointed minister of propaganda, Father Adama. Zale's policies include surveillance, global disarmament (especially of civilians), state-controlled banks, and suppression of non-Adamist sects.
Not all people in the GC like this, particularly ones of the suppressed groups. Having become fed up, multiple world leaders have formed hidden cabals in an attempt to overthrow Zale. Little do they know that the following conflict will see the fulfillment of ancient biblical prophecy.
Our RP will mostly revolve around Cabalist Agents, and will have us doing sneaky, espionage style things. Sneaking contraband into this place, meeting with this guy to get information, starting revolts here and there. That sort of thing. As well, we'll be witnessing major disasters occur and attempting to provide relief.
I'm going to bump this RP real fast so more people see it.
Would this plot interest anybody?
