Here is a the basic idea: the RP starts where the epilogue to Jennifer Government ends. John Nike is now released from prison, and is wandering the streets. Unknown to him, however, is that information he possess will suddenly become quite important.
You can imagine what is happening in the other character's lives. Although this RP will include them, they play more of a background role. The main characters of this story will be the ones the RP'ers invent. If you have not read Jennifer Government, I suggest you do; although it is not required for this RP, it can help you fit in easier.
To create a character you have to come-up with a first name, then take the surname of the organization you work for. Describe your character. Is (s)he likely to deliberately get involved in things (John Nike, Jennifer Government, Violet ExxonMobil), or is (s)he a reactive character (Hack Nike, Billy NRA)?
For those of you who know nothing about the book, let me brief you: It takes place in a world where corporations have overwhelming power. They run schools and hospitals. The Police are a now company of their own. Taxes have been abolished. The Government has to hunt for fund-sources to achieve large operations. You get the idea.
So, create away!

The world of Jennifer Government. Red countries are part of the US, blue ones are the affiliated countries, green ones are "socialist" countries and purple ones are fragmented markets.
