Original Character. Future. Arranged Marriage. 16 & Up.
Almost 20 years ago the world made a last ditch effort to curb the disastrous effects of global warming. This move to protect the world also doomed it to an inevitable end; it has been over 19 years since a child has been born. The world as a whole had resigned itself to this bleak future until now, the year 2051.
It was a group of scientists in Beijing, China who discovered the cure. They called it Hòu Rén (后人) or 'Posterity'. Hòu Rén is a serum, a cure that reverses the sterilization but only in people below the age of forty. In an attempt to not only capitalize on the joyous reaction from the public but to insure that the population will grow in the 'right' direction, the Hòu Rén community has been established. As China was the place where the cure was discovered, it was selected as the place for the first Hòu Rén community.
Scientists have created a database of DNA samples, looking for key genes that will create an 'ideal baby' and the people with these 'perfect' genes are contacted and urged to join the community. It is advertised as being on a strictly voluntary basis with a substantial monetary incentive. People between the ages of 21-39 from all over the world will enter the Hòu Rén community to be paired up with their perfect genetic partner.
The Hòu Rén Community is for the betterment of our world. Who will be your match?

| Seattle; Drop by Drop (Original fantasy/supernatural creature roleplaying site) |
[Aug. 31st, 2011|03:06 pm] |
Seattle; Drop by Drop is an urban fantasy/supernatural site, set in modern day Seattle. We've got a wide variety of playable races, from witches and necromancers to vampires and lycans, and several completely unique races like the Viri, who are winged humans, the Idimmu, refugees from other dimensions with colorful skin, wings, horns, and more, Shapeshifters, who come in several varieties; animals, reptiles, plants, and even a class who can shift their gender. And we just unveiled our newest race, the Deasura, who you might know by the name 'mermaids', but I can assure you, these are far from the cuddly disney versions you know.
We're a friendly and welcoming site, active but laid back. We've got a lot of great things for members, from a 'Searching For' section to a Player Adoptions section, writing challenges, diaries, and more.
Our plot is basically member driven and open, but we also have monthly, site wide storylines that anyone can get in on.
There's no word count; we have a variety of players who post anywhere from 120-1500 words on average.
And our apps are short! Just basic info like height, age and weight, with a focus on the history.
We believe in letting people have choices, whether it's using a celeb/musician/stock model or a custom made 3d model for their playby, or writing in 1st or 3rd person. We have the Sub Accounts mod, so we let players choose whether to use an accounts-per-player style or an accounts-per-character style linked to a main OOC account.
We're self hosted, but don't let that intimidate you; it's a very user friendly board software, and because it's self hosted, you won't have to worry about downtime or shutdowns. We use BBcode and html,and we are very newbie friendly, and we'll walk you through anything you need help with! We're also very laid back, encouraging members to register and hang around getting to know people rather than demanding applications be posted the minute you join.
So please give us a look, and if you have any questions, please catch us on the cbox!
