Description

The story
Somewhere around 300 years ago something unbelievable happened... The sun, the source of all live on earth, exploded. There have been thousands upon thousands of theories of how it happened, some says the Soviets launched a nuclear rocket into space during the cold war, some blames the pollution and so on. But we will never know for sure. Anyway, lets get back to the story shall we? Ok, when the gravitational force pulling on the earth disappeared -the one keeping it in orbit- we were slingshot into space. Of course the other planets was thrown as well, but in another direction.

The sun itself turned into a supernova, one that was bigger than what should be possible from our little star. And it chased the earth in its path, staying just outside of the moon. It couldn't catch up with us, but it kept close, never getting further away. This itself wouldn't be that dangerous, our atmosphere kept the radiation away. But for some reason, earth stopped turning around itself. This meant that one pole would always face the supernova (south pole to be exact) , the other one would always face the cold space.



The south

The supernova, later known as "Ragnarok," worked as a sun. Only a few years after the explosion all of the oceans on the south part of our earth had more or less evaporated. There is still water bellow the surface, but its hard to find, and hard to keep. 90% or so of the people living south of equator died within the first months. The remaining 10% slowly evolved generation for generation into nomads who could handle the temperatures which usually are around 40-50 degrees Celsius , who could go weeks without water and who could live on the little they found. The same thing happened to the animal-life. Some of the animals who already was evolved for heat survived, like camels, dromedaries and such. Others changed into species that could handle the harsh environment.

An example you ask for? Well, lets look at the lions. Before the explosion they were already used to handle extreme heat. But Ragnarok took away most of their drinking water, and the trees, giving them shadow would die. What did the lions do? They evolved. Only a decade later our planet had a new species walking around. Some smart-ass named it "Ultrifelicis" Meaning "killer-cat" in some ancient language and for some reason it catched on.



Paradise
Of cource everything didn't go quite as bad for everyone. Life stayed pretty much the same around the equator



The North (this one will be explained more carefully because this is where the RP will be set)
The North is the polar opposite to the South (hehe :P) Were the South seems to be an endless desert, the North is an endless landscape of ice, snow, and frozen ghost towns. Same as in the south, more than 90% of the population died, froze to death or starved. The remaining people were the ones who were used to cold temperatures. Most of the survivors were from Sweden, Finland, Russia, Norway... etc, basically the ones who new how to handle a hard winter. People here didn't evolve much. But all of them gained a higher body-temperature so they could handle the chilly air better.

After just a few years the oceans had frozen completely, it was said that there still existed running water in the hot springs of Iceland, but that was never proven. No-one of those who tried to reach the famous island ever returned. It became a legend. People would start the extreme trip there only based on rumors. But they would have to travel thousands of miles over the frozen Atlantic, no shelter, constant wind, constant cold... etc... Only the crazy or desperate would try that, mostly it was a deadly mix of both.

But enough of rumors, lets get back to facts The animal life evolved, and with little-to-no plants, most of the animals evolved into predators, predators whom favorite snacks are humans. The two most feared are the Polar bear, who after the explosion quickly started growing in numbers, soon being the predator on top of all food chains, even above humans. But its not your average polar bear. The new kind grew almost twice the size of the old ones, became much stronger, much faster, and much more intelligent. In other words, they are now 10 times as deadly, and they live everywhere in the North. But believe it or not, the polar bears aren't really the most dangeours. Only the most feard.
And here's a little plot twist (just for fun): the most dangerous animal on the other hand will be kept a secret until they appear in the RP.




-Mayor cities in the North
This is just a brief view of the most important cities. The roleplay will mostly happen in New Moscow

-New Moscow
As the name indicates, this town are located in the ruins of the Original Moscow. Only the tallest of the buildings rise above the ice, and are used as stairs to get down to city level. The city are located under the ice, a huge network of tunnels bind the different building together and there are one huge cave, dug out on the old Red Square, which is called the Red Square Hall. Also known as "city hall" Its used for the sole purpose of announcing important things. As well as boxing matches. One thing wort notifying is that the mayor are a dictator. No other way to say it. Population: Nearly 1000 people, biggest of all the towns.

-Valhalla
This town is located where the border between Norway, Sweden and Finland used to meet. When they were still countries, and not just names. Its a small town, build above the ice using things they could salvage from the earlier towns. Its known for its Anarchy, outlaws, and hunters. Population: Approximate 100 people.

-The bunker
As the name implies its located in an old nuclear-bunker from the cold war. There isn't much known about it, except that not many people get in, and no one gets out. Population: Somewhere around 300 people.





About the roleplay
Okay, so now as you hopefully get the story and the plot (that is if you could live through my horrible spelling) :P I'm going to explain how this roleplay will work.
Unlike most other survival RPs, in this one we will focus mostly on the basic survival of people in New Moscow. There are going to be some "action" and such, but that won't be the main focus. Just normal human life of people who wishes to get out of the world they live in.

If you get any ideas for events that can happen, feel free to PM me :D I'm happy for any help that can make this funnier :D

Ohh, and just to get a few things straight. In the cities there are different sources of heat, like one huge central heating system. Which leads me over to different jobs people can have in the towns, there are: Hunters (not many because its a hard and dangerous job) "coal" miners (Basically just people who did in the ice for wood or other burnable things for the heating system) Shop-owners (people who own a shop, they often have some kind of deal with hunters who bring them meat) Bar-owners (there are a few bars in New Moscow, which usually makes good money) Heaters (the people who runs the central heating) Mechanics (they fix different things around New Moscow) and so on... feel free to come up with your own jobs :D just send me a PM if you want to be mayor or something.

And finally:
