NationStates Jolt Archive

This was Holy Panooly's idea, I'm just making up the sign up thread. The basis for this is from http://www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/ The peak oil production is over, and now production, and the quantity of oil left in the world is declining. Oil prices are going to reach about $200 a barrel and rise sharply, inflation will run rampant, and major wars will break out over the last bits of oil. The actual period that it will start will be decided by Panooly, and whether we use RL nations or our own NS nations will be up to him. I myself am going to make a character RP as well in the nationstates forum, I'll post a sign up thread for that in the Nationstates forum sometime tomorrow or the day after. Anyone interested in joining the nation RP say so here, and whenever Panooly comes on, he can explain it in further detail.

I originally intended for this to be the nation RP sign up, with the character one to come later, but whatever. I was thinking of having the character RP take place in either the Tundra, or in the US.

Thankfully, by then, the nation of Tessen will have little need for oil reserves. Perhaps we shall be spared the hardship. :P

Sorry, I had to put a character in here as it is the stuff I love to write.

Name: Andreus
Profession: Tech priest
Skills: Argument resolving, technology expertise. Also ambassador of my commonwealth
Bio: A previous member of a gang, one day a rival gang 'muscled into his territory' his gang was killed, and after a fight, he was wounded to the point of death.
Then a vicar, father Mcguinnis, found him bleeding and broken outside the chapel. He took him in, and using his technical expertise and with help from the local mechanic and biologist, fixed his body with new parts of metal and steel.
From then on, he has vowed to be a negotiator in confrontations and a firm christian. Although some are afraid of his half mettalic visage, he is a non violent man.

Beautiful Lisa. General cook and bottlewasher reporting for duty. I used to work for General Fuller Schitt,before he was killed, I make a mean Courgette Pie.

As expected, I'll join too.

I'll be in, but what year we're fighting in will determine my char's name & stats, so I'll have to know that first.

bump...year for the character RP (which I guess I'm handling and Panooly can do the nation RP) will be 2013, four years after the peak. Wars are already starting across the world, and mass militarization is occuring. The RP will take place in either the northern United States/Canada or in the Canadian Tundra. I put it up to a vote between the people involved.

Bump...no one else wants to join in?

[[Check your TGs Tundra.]]

Hey, long time no see...

Anyway, I might join in, gotta see if I am gonna have any time...

I'm in for sure, I'll get a char posted here soon.

Awesome, now for the setting. Do you want the Canadian Tundra, or the US/Canada?

US/Canada.

Though it depends on what your terrain is like- though I guess from your name that it's not quite what I'm hoing for.

And could you provide the link to the other rp, if it comes up.

the RP thread

I'd probably be interested in defending the lands of the north. Though, I need to know what year this would be in.

2013
