The Badlands [Rules + OOC + Sign-up + Lore]

Story
---
"We are a community"
It's been years. America has been relatively abandoned, except for one megacity called Pride. Pride is run mainly by rich lions and tigers, although there are others among them. Anyone may live there, although if you aren't rich, it isn't preferable. There are a couple of villages on the outskirts of Pride, although they are tightly patrolled by Pride soldiers, and have very poor conditions. Finding a job in Pride is usually your best bet.
However, the laws in Pride are extremely strict, and even a slight mishap can result in execution. Those who are just casual citizens are unaware of the punishments, and don't know what hits them, until it hits. Illegal acts consist of: Art unauthorized by the government, Songs unauthorized by the government, Writing unauthorized by the government, Owning weaponry, Having more than 3 offspring, along with many other unfair laws. Similar to that of the Capitol in the Hunger Games, the citizens are snobby and expect to be waited on. They're very eccentric as well.
Although most people live in Pride or the villages on the outskirts, there is also a clan of those who defy. They are called the New. The New usually wear dark colors, although they can wear many colors. No specific species dominates, and illegal activities are common. Most people in this group are around 20-25. The Pride government has no knowledge of the New.

She heard, lately, that Birch was obliterated due to rumors that a drug dealer was hiding out there, and there were supposedly no found survivors of the pillage.

They're weak towards EMPs, Lightning Rods, and water

Age: 21
Gender: Female
Species: Tiger
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Likes: The gym, Pride’s poetry, make-up, going to the art galleries, secretly is intrigued by rebels
Dislikes: Candy, germs, being around a lot of people
Hobby(s): Going to the gym and arts

Significant Other: Tai refrains from dating for the moment, but she does have an admirer
Backstory: Tai was born to a rich family, never knowing what it is like to not have everything she could dream of. She still is pretty down to earth. Her fear of germs has always been fueled by her father telling her how she shouldn’t socialize with lower class people as they carry many illnesses.
Even though she has the perfect life, she still often feels like she is missing out on something bigger, something more exciting. No matter his father’s attempt to keep her away from anything illegal, she has seen some of the rebel’s art works, and she couldn’t help but wonder what was going through their minds when they made those pieces. She never argues with anyone, because she still feels the lingering of power over her. She isn’t afraid, but still wary for she has seen what happens to those who disobey (she doesn’t know they are executed though.)

Backstory: Brejvarr was born and raised up in the northern part of Sweden by his parents. He learned to chop wood and hunt at a young age. His childhood was harsh and the slightest disobedience was met with physical punishment by his father. When Brejvarr was only 8 years old his house burned down with both his parents inside. To his surprise, however, Brejvarr was not sad. He wasn't depressed, not even crying. All he could feel was anger as he watched his house burn to ashes. When his house had burnt down, he scavenged all he could (Including his two axes, wich he found locked up in the basement) and started wandering out into the forest. For years he travelled the world with no goal in sight but to stay alive. After 16 years of travelling around he ended up in America where he found a small village on the outskirts of Pride. He temporarily settled down just outside the village in a small tent where he is now.

During this time, Victor learned he had a silver tongue, and exceptional bargaining skills. The Fennec exacted revenge on his parents killers...accordingly.

[Rayleonarde]

(I hope I'm not too late )


Name: Rayleonarde "Ray" Blackburn
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Gone
Likes: Long Range Weapons, hiding in high places, buttons (like shirt buttons)
Dislikes: Fast-moving targets, things that get too close, buttons (like remote-control buttons)
Hobby: Sitting still for hours on end, staring at people through high-magnification scopes.
Occupation: Insane loner with a penchant for long-rifles.
Clothing Style: A once, presumably nice jacket, now torn and covered in dirt. Sometimes has pants (if he remembers them)
Voice: Low and raspy, doesn't talk much. Gets loud when excited.
Appearance:
-Height: 6'2''
-Weight: 200lbs
Ray was once a beautiful dark-toned purple, but the color from his fur has faded from lack of bathing and being baked in the hot sun.
Home: Moves constantly, usually marked by recently spent brass around an area.
Family: None (one rifle he claims speaks).
Pets: None
Bio: Ray was once a privatized scavenger. A firefight earned him a low-caliber round through the skull, and getting left in the ruins. He was left scrambled, dying, and alone with a sniper-rifle. Ray eventually made camp in one of the many abandoned buildings, where he learned how to survive on cold meals and hot lead. Whispers of a purple-colored ghost in the ruins circulate from time to time, especially when a scavenger disappears with the crack of a rifle.
