Introduction
The year 2142: The human race has gone to extreme measures to fight wars. With a rapid decrease in the population, scientists launch what would be called "Project Adam", the mass-production of android war machines.
Year 2179: Human soldiers fall defenseless against their robotic foes. Entire armies were replaced with these contraptions. The robots were updated and given artificial intelligence.
Year 2210: The wars are over, but humanity is left in ashes. With the help of the robot soldiers, they rebuild society.
Year 2287: In fear of a revolution, mankind banishes the sentient robots into the barren wastelands surrounding the single mega-city "Utopia".
And, finally, the year 2582: Robot-kind is forgotten.
But not all hope is lost...
In the year 2599, five rebellious teenagers escape from a camping trip and wander into "the Badlands". After hours of walking, they fall unconscious. The last one to faint sees what no man has seen in real life for decades: a real robot.
Will the machines extract revenge or will they forgive? How will these five humans react to a race that their own kind created, loved, and despised?
- Utopians
- The Monarch-Ruler of all of Utopia. Hates machines of the sentient type.
- General-in charge of the army, law enforcement, and security of Utopia. Possibly related to one of the teenagers. Possibly mortal enemies with one of the main robot characters.
- The rebellious teenagers (like every teen fiction story ever made). I'll take at most 7. Have fun making them!
- Other characters (Feel free to submit!)
- The Forgotten
- The Queen of Machines-self-explanatory, leader of the Forgotten
- The Sentinel-The Queen's right-hand 'bot. "Brothers" with the Warrior (see below).
- The Explorers-the 'bots who rescue the teens
- The Trekker-explores all the time. Acts as a tour guide to his companions. Australian in behavior, voice and armory. Steve Irwin-ish (Crikey!)
- The Warrior-A high-ranking member of the Forgotten's army. Ruthless, silent, deadly. Actually compassionate. 1940's gangster behavior, thinking, and impression.
- The Archivist-eldest robot among the group. Older than the Queen herself. Has fighting experience. Smug. Old war veteran kind of guy. Likes to tell stories. Named Herodotus (crucial to the story)
- The Chronicler-only female robot of the group. Works for the Archivist. Interested in studying human behavior and social ecology.
- The Tinker-Eccentric. Peace-loving. 70's Hippie. Big techie. Does illegal Anti-Virus scans.

*Images can be placed anywhere in the profile
**as much as possible, anime-style.
NOTES:
*This Roleplay will be used as reference material for a graphic novel. The characters, events, plot, and other things necessary for a story will be used.
*The humans have never seen a REAL robot in years. They are used to sci-fi ideas and mecha kinda like today.
*The robots are of all shapes and sizes. From Wall-E's to C3PO's to 20-feet tall Transformers. Freaking huge giant robots MAY appear. (huehuehuehuehue)
*The robots live in the Badlands and a lush, green jungle near it. Utopia is located on an oasis in the Wastelands.
*The "Badlands" is actually Pangaea reformed.
*I won't be here often. I will not interfere or be involved in the game and story unless intervention is necessary. Please abide by the usual set of RolePlayGateway roleplay rules.
*If interested, make a character sheet and I will try to analyze it ASAP. Don't ask for permission.

Re: The Forgotten: Sand and Rust
Normally I would have gone for the Archiver, but I kind of don't want a name imposed on me, and hey, the Sentinel sounds like something befitting me as well. Sign me up.

Go for it, Lloyd.
