It was a time of greatness, not too long after a period of nuclear disarmament and the aversion of a global disaster, the world was at peace. Humans stood for once looking upon each other mostly as good men, and flawed ideals such as racism stood on the verge of defeat. But, as we all know, Valar Morghulis; All Men Must Die. And all things must end.

This golden age of fruitfulness was not to be. Soon enough, there were random satellites dropping out of orbit. At the time, it seemed a major problem with the navigational systems perhaps. But we would know soon enough. Soon enough would it begin.

At first, it looked as if the last remnants of terrorism had gathered together to fight their last stand to the defenders. What other explanation did they have? So they gathered together a large force of peacekeepers, to make an example and spread the word. But, almost as hastily as it had been transported there, it disappeared. The only things to return were crazed men with silly ideas about aliens.

But they weren't silly. They were real. And this was only the beginning.

The story begins with you taking control of the life of a person who lives upon Earth. Unbeknownst, a large alien force has landed and begun "exploring". Only now are the correct authorities becoming aware of the true threat. And now it's too late. It's a question of whether they can weather the coming storm, or be broken like a sandcastle in the tide. But, even if it's the former, how long? There's only one thing that your characters know for certain. Irrational or not, they would far rather survive than die.

GM's word is law, as usual. If you're caught godmodding, you're out after a warning. Any offensive language out of character will not be tolerated. The RP is R-rated just in case that is judged to be a necessity, but this is for the purposes of storytelling - not the characters, so please keep any of the things not allowed in a PG-13 setting to a minimum.

Character template is as follows;

Name: Gender: Age: Affiliation (Country/NGO/other): Skills: Equipment:

Personalities and appearance are unnecessary as they should be revealed in the story. To be on the safe side, it is perhaps better to include appearance into the template.

Would you join? Yes. No.

Thoughts? I've got a good portion of this set out, but I'd like to see how high interest is.
