Desert RP Sign Up
 
The world is one big desert. Water comes a large underground river that covers most of the planet, but is very deep down. One big company is the main source of draining the water and sharing it with the world (Only enough to survive, the rest has to be bought). There are smaller companies as well. Then there are some oasis around the world, but there are very few of them. Most of the big cities are build around these oasis.

There’s a legend about a giant oasis full of water and plants and other stuff that people in the desert want. People search for it often, but never find it. You want to find it.

Think Trigun for this (But no Plants, just high walls). No Wolf or Vash or Knives (Or any of the Gung Ho guys) clones.

There are guns, and you can have them (Nothing major though, like USAS shotguns or a M16). There are some magic guns (Shoots out fireballs, shots out sand, etc, etc), but they take a large amount of magic energy to keep them running (So non mages can’t really use them for long).

There is magic, but elemental magic has to have the element around it. So if you want to make a fireball, something has to already be on fire. Wind, Earth, and Water mages are the most common. Wind and Earth because those two elements are everywhere, and water because a water mage can make more water from a smaller amount (Usually hired into the big water company).


Things that stop the “Bang, you’re dead, moving on.”
- Magic shields for mages. Almost any mage can make a magic shield that covers there entire body that stops kinetic energy. Depending on the mage, the amount of energy needed to break the spell changes (Stronger mages can take more hits).
- Kevlar and armor.
- Extremely good bullet proof glass.
- Anything you can think of.
- I'm considering metal being expensive so you will mainly have rubber bullets (Undecided on this).

Dude, SO HERE.

Just give me a moment to think abuot how to fully impliment my character idea.

Also, I should point out that no one is to be some super accurate god. If all I see are shots to the head and shots that never miss, something bad will happen to that character.

Lastly, if you have magic, you either should not have a gun, or you suck with one (Magic guns do not count). Story explanation for this, I don't know. But, you have to listen to it anyway.

Transportation between the cities is usually by giant vehicles, since most settlements are over a day away from each other, and the desert is dangerous at night, and during the day.

Actually, since playing Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay I have decided my person shall have no guns/

You know... this sounds a lot like 'tank girl' only with magic...

How about rifling was never invented on this world, so guns tend to be very inaccurate. I mean think about it, rifling is one of those inventions that could have easily been overlooked.

I'll have my character up in a bit.

Edit - No wait, forget that! I want my guy to have a scoped, high cal. rifle so i change my mind on the whole non-invention of rifling.

I'm interested. I'll have something up eventually.
