It's Year 3198. The Good People's Republic that used to protect us has long since fallen apart. Now there are only scattered factions holding various territories across the what was once called North America. South America? On the Terra Reclamation Day in 2304 when Mother Earth decided it was just about done with humanity, all of South America was obliterated. It's now the deepest part of the West Atlantic. Then with the World Shut Down in 2406 that ended WWIV, North America lost all possible communication with anyone overseas. The Oceans are impossible to cross these days, with the New Uprising of the Atlantian Empire. What else has happened since then? Fossil fuel ran out, forcing the entire continent to 'Go Green'. And then when the Magnetic poles of the Earth shifted, the Solar Wind ripped out a chunk of the atmosphere in the Northern Hemisphere, plunging everything above the southern tip of the Hudson Bay into an eternal blizzard.
So here we are, a small group of rebels holed up in the deserted shell of what used to be Seattle. The tall Olympian mountains protect us somewhat, and due to some major shifting of the Earth's crust (Which also caused California to slip into the Pacific) we're about 900 feet above sea level, with a nice ridge of metamorphic rocks and spouting lava between us and the Pacific, as well as to the south of us. North of us, about the only thing we might need to worry about is Abominable snowmen, but thankfully they haven't mutated just yet. We fight, we survive. We hope that one day, maybe our children's children will life a safe and happy life on the beaches of Hawaii. I hear that's the only place left the same after all this.

Where does that put you/your character? You're a new member of the group of rebels, called the Aelius. The group is a democracy mostly, with a few members holding higher respect, but no one really in charge except for the oldest guy, Sam, who will make executive decisions if none can be reached through votes and debates. We're all 'Superhumans' here, in fact, the only humans left alive have had to adapt to the new Earth in some way, so everyone possesses some sort of special ability. For example, Sam is strong, way beyond that of any bodybuilder. He can resist most extreme temperatures as well, and can go months without proper food by lowering his metabolism to fractions of its normal rate. Everyone has stuff like that, two or three 'abilities' that help us survive the harsh world. Some say we 'evolved', others say they're gifts from some being above. Me, I like to think they're just all the unique parts of our minds finally coming into physical existence.
So, Who are you? What abilities to you bring to the group? And what can you do to help us survive this crazy world?
The Main Story Line~
The Aelius are a faction group fighting for survival in a harsh, post-apocalyptic world. They are one of several factions spread across North America. Scattered among the Aelius and the other factions, as well as hiding in secret bases of their own, is a secret organization. This organization, known to most as simply 'The Dark Ones', see themselves as a being that keeps everyone in line. They pull strings everywhere, within and without the factions, to guide things in the way that they wish. They are composed of highly trained assassins and spies, and most of the members do not even know who their real leader is.
The General Builtin Plot~
Several years ago, there was an incident among the group. A young teen, trained by The Dark Ones, committed what seemed to the Aelius as an abominable horror. On one dark night, he took the lives of every member of his family, save for his youngest brother, who was 5 at the time. His motives, although not known to anyone else in the Aelius, were special. His family had been planning an uprising, wanting to establish a solid dictatorship of sorts over the Aelius, believing that the current method of decision making wasn't good enough. Trained by The Dark Ones, however, he was given a choice by his superior. Either he could side with his family in the uprising, which would be a complete failure, resulting in his own death, or he could wipe them out and spare one of them. The teen chose to assassinate his family. Shocked by his deeds, the Aelius banished him from their midst, and the younger brother grew up hungry for vengeance on his older brother for what he had done.
Factions~
For the time being, The Aelius will be the main focus of this RP. There is potential for possible separate RP's based on the other factions, but that will be a thing planned at a later time.

Powers~
Powers can be anything you can think of. Try to make powers have a weakness, and if you can, be creative in designing your character's powers. I won't create a list of powers because I feel like that causes people to feel like they have to stick to those and only those.
Map Locations:
~Blizzard Boundary- The general line that divides the area of eternal blizzard from the rest of North America
~The Aelius Home Camp- Home base of the Aelius Faction
~The Wasted Lands- An area just inside the Eternal Blizzard next to the Hudson Bay where very strange things are said to lurk, human mutants adjusted to the negative double digit cold, creatures composed of cold storm themselves, and other terrifying things.
~Zero Point- The Southern-Most point of the Eternal Blizzard
~Glaceus Resistance Home Camp- The Home base of the Glaceus Resistance Faction
~Terra Omnia Home Camp- The Home base of the Terra Omnia Faction
~United Eastern Seaboard Home Camp- The Home base of the UES Faction
~Flora'de Home Camp- The Home base of the Flora'de Faction
~Pluto-Inferno Home Camp- Faction Pluto-Inferno's Home Base
~The Maelstrom- A Terror of the Oceans, a bottomless vortex of watery death marking where the old land-bridge between North and South America used to be
~Fort Solitude- A Lonely Fort on a volcanic Island where the Solitudes reside, a so-called Neutral Faction
More Stuff Coming Soon~
