The Aftermath

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 7:04 pm

THIS IS NOT LORE REALATED AT ALL AS IT HAPPENS 100 YEARS AFTER THE OBLIVION CRISIS.

Plot/Setting

Tamriel is in chaos. A deathly plague has swept the land, rauaging the people and animals alike. Cities ravaged, and half of the planets population has been anhilated. Monsters and guards, beasts and adventurers, none were spared from the plagues grasp. The epidemic peaked, and is now almost gone, with jsut a few rare cases here and there. People who appear to have symptoms are killed on sight, their bodies burned and disposed of. Cyrodiil was the worst hit, and even the Ipeirial City is now abandoned. Anvil and Bruma are the last cities with a meager population, and food is scarce. People dare not step foot outside of the walls, for once you are out, you can not come back. Food and water are in desperate need, and crime has spiked. We begin in Anvil, the new capital of Cyrodiil.

Symptoms of the plague
-Swelling of the cheeks and lips
-Aching and development of rash on limbs.
-Uncontrolable bleeding from the eyes/mouth(not this only occurs at the peak of infection)
-Loss of hair
-Rotting and falling of of toe/fingernails
-No matter how minor, it results in death

--Rules/Procedures--

-procedures-

-You are a peasent or a guard. Those are your choices.
-If you leave the city, you are damned.
-There is still a chance of getting the plague.
-You own a house.
-Food is scarce, remember


-rules-

-NO UBERING
-Killing is allowed, but not of other peoples chars.
-Crime rate is high, so burgurlary is fine
-No whining if you die

Name/Race:

Occupation: (if you are guard, you choose night shift or day shift)

How did the different races fare against the plague ? The bosmers, altmers and argonian's resistance to diseases should have strongly reduced the effect for them. The redguard's lesser ressistance shoud have some had some effect too. Unless it was someway able to bypass it ? (if it was magical, the orcs and bretons should have fared better than the other races)

-Do not try to find a cure for the plague if you are infected'

Thats one of the wierdiest rules I've ever seen.

Anyway, How is bravil one of the last remaining cities? Its a piss-poor town festering with mud and disease. Unless of course something has changed, the disease should have decimated the town with much haste.

This plague was brought from the planes of Oblivion, and is the most deadly disease Cyrodiil ever faced. All races were similarly affected. And DarthRavanger, no cure because this plague came from he heart of oblivion, and they still dont know what causes it. As for Bravil, it was the worst hit by the disease, but people found refuge there because it was one of the only cities left that hadnt been burned down by bandits and war lords.

But why would Bravil be standing? It seems like bandits and warlords you speak of would attack Bravil simply because it was weak. Then, there's that thing about guards. You say that if you're a guard you can leave the city, but then you mention that if you leave the city, you're DOOMED! What's the point in mentioning such a privelage if there's no point in using it? Also, you talk about it as if it's a major problem in Tamriel, depeleting cities and all, yet you mention that now there are only a few rare cases here and there. Also, you've implied that we can play as an infected, but still above that statement you say that infected are killed on sight. How are we supposed to play as one under these circumstances?

1.That still wouldn't explain why people can't try to find a cure. As the rule you wrote states that people can't even try.
2.And I still don't see why bravil would be left standing. ITs easy pickinngs for warlords and bandits, especially if it was the worst hit.

Bravil is the weakest city.

This seems almost like a game in a way. I mean, you are supposed to sit there and try not to get the plague?

Ok. To sooth you, I'll make a few changes. You guys were right, I was being a bit stupid. Guards now can't leave either, Anvil is the capital, and you can try to find a cure. Try.

Anvil's a coast city. Seems like it'd be one of the ones heavily affected as well. Bruma's good.

I didn't say you could paly as infected, you can catch the plague, buts thats only if you go near someone who had it. If you get it, you're either going to be killed, or die anyway. Andonly a few cases here and there is because, as I said in the text, it had peaked and is now almost gone. So, I revised the city things, and the goin out of the city stuff, so were you guys complaining just to complain, or are you going to join?
