The blobfish
World War 3 broke out in 2080. It devastated humanity due to the advanced weaponry used. While trying to stay away from most nuclear warheads, countries turned to other means to become the top dog, so to speak. One of these weapons, that was used to hit the DC area was the Neutron bomb.
The Neutron bomb (ERW) is a low yield thermonuclear weapon that has been designed to do maximum damage by emitting lethal Neutron radiation in the immediate area to which it has been dropped. The nature of this bomb means that while it is a bomb that has been dropped on DC, it hasn't leveled the area. Before the bomb was dropped, DC had been evacuated though some people had chosen to remain. After the bomb, though anyone in the immediate area most likely was killed when the bomb dropped, not everyone would have been killed. There was a lot of damage to building structures.
This war annihilated a lot of the population. There was no more government by the end and military were also pretty much depleted. It is unknown how much the population around the world suffered due to this war, but it was clearly devastating and life as everyone knew it changed.
Who dropped the bomb and why? This is unknown and doesn't matter. While it might have been at the beginning, the focus has now changed.
Long ago, towards the end of the 21st Century, a third world war finally broke out. Man fought day and night against each other, killing only because of greed. It wasn't until man was on the verge of extinction, having completely destroyed most continents, leaving little. It was at the beginning of the 22nd century that they were forced to stop simply because no one could do anything any more. The virus had already mutated and people had started dying...
...There is one thing left to save mankind though. A Key. This Key can cure 1000 problems and also cause 1000 more, yet it doesn't fit in, nor open any locks or lead to any rooms. The tender love and beauty crafted into making this Key flows from top to bottom, to be seen by all. When staring at 'The Key' no one is any wiser, and neither is 'The Key' itself.
ADV423 means Adenovirus - 423 is a flue like virus that affects the respiratory system. The adenovirus was around before but of course, with medical advancements, a vaccine was made. It starts off as a simple cold at the age of 21 which slowly develops into a chest infection before it just takes over your body by 23, causing breathing problems and other sorts of things, also listed below.
Throughout the war, things like the common cold and viruses like the flu were running through the population. Theses were always lethal to the old, the vulnerable and the young. It was no surprise when they were still dying as a result of this afterwards. The flu is highly contagious. It was after the war that things changed.
Soon, people of all ages, all healths and all sizes were starting to drop. With the state everything was in, at first it was blamed on the collapse of the economy and humanity, the sudden change to the way of living. A state of emergency was called as a flu pandemic seemed to spread.
Scientists fought to find a cure. Some sort of vaccine - well, if any scientists were left after the war. And over time, the virus developed so that it is in everyone. Whether it's born into people, or so contagious that once born people are affected, it's unknown. In today's world the knowledge simply isn't there between the factions. Either way, it's activated in their early to mid-twenties, and while the young show small symptoms growing up, it becomes so severe that it kills people before they reach 30. The longest recorded living person in the last 50 years was recorded to reach the age of 27.
And so Adenovirus-423 was named.
The North - Known as The Disciples. Their goal was to find 'The Key', then use and manipulate it towards their own needs. By exploiting 'The Key' they could cure themselves, and only who they wanted to cure and then use it to gain power over the area and become the one true ruler.
The South - Known as Loki's Kin, after the Norse God, Loki the trickster, their purpose with 'The Key' is to destroy it. Like the North, they are competing in the race to be the first to gain ultimate power so they can rule over everything and everybody. The fact that 'The Key' can cure everyone doesn't matter. They just want to destroy it and have complete control.
The East - Known as Obsidian Knights, the East, unlike the North and South, is out to protect 'The Key'. It is their purpose to find and protect it from the North and South so they can eventually find a cure to ADV-423. The East are allies with the West.
The West - Known as Thanatos Instinct after the Greek God of Death. Despite this gang been named after the Norse God of death, it is fighting to survive and searching for 'The Key' in hopes of curing the disease and prolonging life. The irony is they're in a gang known as Death, but doing everything in its hands to find a cure, with or without 'The Key'.
The Underground - Motto: ab hinc ab aeterno (From here on from the eternal) These have control of the old subway and sewer systems underground in No Man's Land. They want the whole of Humanity to become extinct. They want to kill everyone including this 'Key'. They don't want it to gain anything from it. If they find 'The Key' they will kill it - if it's a living thing. The reason for this is that they believe that humanity is doomed and that this is mother nature's way of doing it. (Possible hidden agenda here for the leader.)
I'm going to try this out as an epic RP. I will be accepting and denying characters based on if they fit into the world or not. The main story is trying to find this 'key' but that doesn't stop back stories happening either. I haven't set up the threads yet for the Epic RP has I need to get things like locations sorted. But I wanted to get this up and going so that people could apply and also so that possible locations could be discussed as I'm setting up, depending on who wants what within the main locations, of course.

Important Information
I'm going to try this out as an epic RP. I will be accepting and denying characters based on if they fit into the world or not. The main story is trying to find this 'key' but that doesn't stop back stories happening either. I haven't set up the threads yet for the Epic RP has I need to get things like locations sorted. But I wanted to get this up and going so that people could apply and also so that possible locations could be discussed as I'm setting up, depending on who wants what within the main locations, of course.
