Beacon City

Year is 20XX
Six months have past since the conclusion of WWIII. The life on Earth is plunged into a chaotic situation spiraling out of control. While countries and nations work desperately to return to a controlled state, organized crime rates rise exponetially. For now society is kept civil by large criminal factions. Beacon City is no different. While the economy has stabalized some what, Four major criminal groups have risen to power. These Factions rule without question, buying off local law enforcement and keeping a low profile as to not attract federal attention. The Factions have all carved a nice niche for themselves in Beacon City. Each one watching it's territory closely.

Current Plot Event:
Word has gotten out of large cargo freighter carrying a very desirable shipment. Drugs, Counterfeit Cash, Weapons, and some high end cars. The Ship's captain has sent a message to the heads of all four of Beacon city's factions: No buisness deals, the first to show up with 2.5 Million in small bills gets the cargo. The ship will anchor off Hope point in one week.

This is the biggest deal of the decade, everyone wants to be the one to close it. And all of the Families are willing to do whatever it takes to make sure they walk away with the merchandise.

Characters can create their own plot. For example while one character chooses to assist his/her faction with the main plot, others can choose to pursue more personal goals and create a story for themselves.


All races are welcome, Humans, Nekos, Vampires, werewolves, zombies, whatever, As long as you follow one stipulation: human like limitation.
All characters can be harmed in a relatively similar way and share common vulnerabilities. A bullet to the head will kill everyone for example.
This is to avoid power playing and having one race better then the others.

If you want a magic user try and keep it to basic Magic like Manipulation of elements or the like.

Run supernatural abilities by me .
