You awaken to the sweet smell of flowers and the tang of ocean salt in the air. The sun is shining and it's a beautiful day! You and your fellow arrivals have been chosen to create your own civilization on the Island of Paradiso by the Powers That Be, the gods and goddesses of this land and sea who are saddened by having witnessed the end of humankind as they know it.
You might feel just the slightest bit dizzy and fuzzy from the trip, which you either knew was coming (without knowing exactly when), because you volunteered for the project or because your memories have been altered in such a fashion that you believe you've volunteered. Either way, when you wake up, you inherently know exactly where you are and what your purpose is. You've been tasked with helping to create a new world, responsible for aiding in building the community all the way up to repopulating the planet.
You'll arrive with the clothes on your back and whatever you happen to have on your person at the time; the first arrivals will also have a few helpful tools to start, but on the whole, your job on the island is to build your society from the ground up and you inherently already know that upon waking. Don't try calling out to friends and family — why would you? You've volunteered, so of course you've already let them know you'll be unavailable for the foreseeable future — because you're on a whole new planet. Good luck getting that cell phone to connect, anyway.
While you're here, you'll be expected to build shelter for yourselves. You'll need to hunt, gather, or garden to acquire food and there are plenty of freshwater lakes on the island for water. If you want more than the outfit you're currently wearing, you'll have to make new clothes. You'll be living off the land. And, of course, you're going to need to procreate eventually if you want your civilization to thrive, expand, and become sustainable. ...it might be easiest if you all work as a team.
No laws, no leaders, no religion; what kind of society will you help to build? Welcome to Paradiso. We're looking forward to seeing the new world as built up by you and your peers.
Paradiso is an oc-friendly, panfandom game set in the middle of a social experiment being conducted by the higher powers of the island in an attempt to re-establish civilization. Characters will awaken on the island and will have no initial access to a steady food supply, electricity, hot water, or any other creature comforts; they will need to build, maintain, and expand their own working society with the supplies they can find and the skills they possess. Over time, if the gods and goddesses favor their "volunteers," they may offer some creature comforts along the way with a little touch of magic.
It is a sex game that will have adult situations and occasional mod-prompted plots.
