NOTE: Here's my brainchild, hope you guys see the potential it has. If you want an RP or a fanfic, or even a hybrid, just answer in the poll above. Note this is my first written conception of this idea, so it is somewhat rough around the edges.


Gears of Fallout
The current planet is Earth, and the year is 2010. Half of humanity is underground. The problem is, humans aren't the only thing underground. Below the surface is a network of denizens and locust caverns. Almost every reachable cave has an even deeper underground. The central area of the Locust threat is actually under Vault 18, where Vault-Tec attempted to create killing machines via F.E.V. Unfortunately, the experiments went incredibly wrong, and from the Vault, the mutants only went deeper. Originally they were greenish and quite large, but as evolution took its place, they began to change into http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/photos/uncategorized/2007/09/12/locust.jpg

Now, the year is 2277, and the Locust aren't happy.The war with China has ended in peace treaty, and all nuclear bombs have been stored for a later date, but not destroyed. You see America are sneaky bastards, they weren't willing to turn their back on any country, no matter how must trust was feigned on paper. But then again, thats human nature. Meanwhile, underground, the remnants of the F.E.V. has now formed its own civilization, and is ready to attack. The first sightings were in D.C., close to where it all started. In retaliation, the Brotherhood of Gears, or BOG, were formed. A war broke out between all of humanity and all of the mutants, who called themselves the Crogan. Eventually President of America, Matthew Eden sat down with John Fenix (Vice President), Adam Lyons (BOG Founder and leader/Secretary of Defense), and all other representatives of the world, and declared nuclear fallout, in which they would pull out all of their dusty warheads, and dropped them all over the world.

From then, war and chaos ensued. From the ashen tattered remains of the world, humanity tried to fight the rest of the Crogan off. [This is where it could break off into an RP or a fan-fic]

Everything has potential, to be good or bad. It all depends on how and where you take it. That being said, I, for one, do not like crossovers. On top of that, I don't like Gears of War. But once again it has potential, I'm just saying if you made this a RP, I wouldn't join. Also, I have not been on here for a little bit/while so I don't know how active it has gotten, but it still looks like very corpse like, so me think you should make this into a fanfic. I would actually read it, if it was a fanfic(though once again, I do not like crossovers or Gears of War.) But don't put up a poll, just pick one for yourself, if you rather have a RP, make a RP. If you can't decide, roll some dice. If you can't roll dice, make them.

I'm going to have to agree with Yttrium. The RPs here are moving along at a snail's pace. Also I never much liked GoW.

That said it does indeed have an interesting "What If?" aspect to it. I think you should make it into a FanFic and if it gains popularity and this forum awakens from it's coma perhaps you can delve into an active RP then.

makes sense. Thanks, the fan-fic will be dormant while I catch up with my other stories.
