Paradise Amiss: OPEN Interest Check
by Eternity Mon Jun 14, 2010 6:44 pm
( - ) <-- this is what I expect from a partner.
( + ) <-- this is what I would really like from a partner.
( ~ ) <-- this is probably showing things I favor in a roleplay.
- Literacy
- Good grammar
- Creativity
- Sense of realism even in fantasy
+ Long posts
+ Challenging roleplayer
+ Male characters (since I prefer playing females)
~ Unique/original storyline
~ Interesting characters; depth, complexes, intriguing twists/flaws, unique traits, etc...
~ Romance (I really like romance, but it's not my first basis. It's something I like later in a roleplay to create drama within a story-line's main flow)
~ Action: Violence, realism, danger, emotion; etc. I want things to be good. Realism even in fantasy; this means that no character can really be dispassionate or constantly nonchalant. I want something interesting. Action surpasses violence too my dearies. Action means ''edge of your seat'', be it by verbal confrontation or an ironic climax, or bla bla bla. Get the picture?
Hundreds of years into the future, the world is now a desolate wasteland with diamonds speckled amongst it. These diamonds are Dome Cities that house thousands or even millions of humans. They are covered in beautiful sheets of white structures, glass and steel buildings, and an order that is almost as beautiful as logic itself.
The year is 3430.
Welcome to Eden. The perfect city of the Dome Cities, the capital of them all. Here, order is born, lived out, and buried. Here is where it all began... But first...
Let me tell you something of the world's changes to truly help you understand.
-Humans do not have sex to procreate. Almost the entirety of the population does not have sex at all, if they even know what it is anymore. Men when hitting puberty, donate four ounces of semen over a period of time, and afterward, are given vasectomies to keep them from reproducing with the women. They are put to sleep when the semen is taken from them as to feel no pleasure or be hinted at the pleasure that exists there.
-People pair off as spouses, and even legally bind themselves (marriage without religion). But love is an ever elusive emotion, most often these bound couples are not truly in love as you and I know of love. Instead, they are simply happy with someone, and decide to take it to the next level as to assure that they do not have to part again. Binding has it's good points, which include larger living spaces for two instead of one, and even opens up the option for a woman and man to request a child- which will be formed inside of the female as she is artificially inseminated.
-There are classes of people. High, Middle, and Low. A, B, and C.
--> A Class workers are the most intelligent, weeded out as zygotes by their excessively good looks matched with intelligence, social ability, and other determining factors of personality and good physical traits. These tend to be the scientists, high up engineers, politicians, surgeons, doctors, architects, biologists, Wasteland Scholars, and more. They are also the taller of people by a majority (meaning that lower classes can be tall, it's just that most A class are tall, between 5'6 - 5'11 for women and 5'11 - 6'4 for men).
--> B Class workers are the second of these, with the potential to be A Class, only with flaws and setbacks. These tend to be teachers, nurses, social workers, pregnancy assistants, Wasteland Studies, engineers, technicians, etc. They range of average height for men and women today, and have a vaster appearance range.
--> C Class workers are the strength. These have the mental potential to manage everyday tasks and are ''normal'' citizens as we might see them today, though in this society they are the rot of the crop, but the backbone nonetheless. They are chosen as zygotes if they have the ability to be strong labor hands. They tend to be cargo transfer, street cleaners, habitat workers, tailors, maids, store workers, sales clerks, assistants, etc. Though some are very attractive, they are known as not being as attractive as the other classes. Also, the women tend to be somewhat around average woman height today, and the men are a vast range of heights. Most C Class people are burly, or in some way obvious for their class.
-Order is kept through brainwashing. Everyone goes through annual mental ''cleansing'' to rid of bad thoughts and negative feelings. If someone steps out of line, they can get brainwashed completely or partially. Every time a person steps out of line and needs brainwashing, the strength of that wash is stronger than the last time. After five, you get demoted a Class and are given a new ''purpose''.
-Purpose is your job. You're given a job upon birth. When you are examined as a newborn, doctors will predetermine you your future. Thus, as a child you get either a basic, intermediate, or advanced education. Then as a teenager, you begin training for your life.
-Wastelands are the outer world, abandoned and aborted by the society of today. The Council foretells everyone and ''brainwashes'' them to agree that the wastelands are a horrible, wild place filled with the very brutality they had left behind almost a full thousand years ago when Eden began its construction. In truth though, beyond anyone and everyone's knowledge save for the Council, the Wastelands are a beautiful stretch of nature where the earth has taken back what the humans have abandoned and not touched. Though a lot of this nature is still showered with ash from the Great Wash that was the burning of most of the world's life after the central Dome Cities were established and the humans picked for restarting the population were escorted there. No one knows of the Great Blaze anymore, as they are not taught it, and those who remembered it were brainwashed.
-Intimacy between people of different classes is frowned upon, but not completely stopped.
-Sex is a whispered rumor only heard by the C Class, where as quite a few men and women there are fond of the activity since C Class tends to have higher sexual desires and appetites than the more perfect civilians.
This story begins in Eden, where two unlikely people come to meet by pure chance of fate. And these two people will soon change the future as they know it; restarting the faith, the love, and the passion left behind in a world now only told to children in their most fabled stories...
----Plot----
When two people are hiding their feelings of insecurity about their existence, they tend to sink into themselves and begin searching for some form of hope. But in this society, is there such a thing as hope? Upon pure chance, these two people meet up, and find upon meeting that they cannot give up on each other so readily. When they realize they are not alone, and have each other, the two will face the world; and will free themselves of the false paradise of Eden for a life unknown in the past few centuries. And even then, they will hope to do greater. To instill a life better for their greater good; for their people and the humanity; Eden will fall.
