What you are told: in 2014 World War Three was clearly on its way, and Nuclear war was inevitable. As a way to protect the American people, all Americans were advised to evacuate their homes and take refuge in one of the many underground facilities which accommodate up to 20,000 people. For the past 6 years these citizens have been told about the horrible war going on just above their heads and are forced to put faith in those running the show. All those who have been brought into these facilities have been marked with a barcode on their wrist. This barcode is their entire identity. America has turned into a military state and anything unknown is not trusted.
What is going on: those who didn't go to the detention centers willingly were immediately hunted and killed. In an attempt to thin out the population, Big Brother has decided to kill off all of the thinkers that were left behind. Those who dared to question their motives were mercilessly slaughtered. Of course some got away, but a civil war has broken out on U.S. soil and one side doesn't even know it. Anyone who has not conformed is a rebel, any human that has not been marked is considered a wild animal and is to be captured or killed.
All humans are being reprogrammed to live off fear and subservience to Big Brother. Humans are to obey and love their merciful leader and that is all. The few rebels who are captured alive are usually immediately placed in a detention center and heavily medicated until they are submissive, then taken into torture centers to withdraw information. Some people are killed, the rest of them are normally so fried from the "electroshock therapy" they are considered no threat and returned to "society".
There is an exclusive army above ground whom hunt the Rebels. They do not exist and therefore have no name, but the liberty fighters have dubbed them as 'Big Brothers' all big brothers are well over six feet with cold blue eyes and blonde hair. It is assumed they are strictly of the European bloodline and their purpose is to cleanse the world above ground. The big brothers are able to execute inhuman like physical capabilities, and lack emotions such as compassion or mercy.
Big Brother is pure evil, some sort of satanic spawn. Through out the war there have been strange incidents that have made the people draw this conclusion. Big Brother is unable to trespass on hollowed land, churches and cemeteries a quick refuge. Once a brother grabbed a woman by her wrist which bore a rosary, the cross burning into his skin. It is because of these incidents that the People have deduced it is in fact the Revelations and they are facing a war of good versus evil.
They want to change the state of our society similar to that of the dark ages. Again it will be the almighty and the servants. Humans are being trained to behave and within the detention centers they are stripped of their individuality. Although in these detention centers, the inmates are given an apartment for them and their family, schooling and even recreational activities, because of their isolation and oblivious to the truth it is obvious that they have bigger things in store for the human race.
The people who survived were the ones who were once teased for being paranoid, the radicals of our day. American activists who had been detained and put into a psych wards, they're more common than you think. The rebels intend to fight and enlighten those who've been lied to. There are liberty fighters scattered across the States, and they rely on their primal instincts and sheet wit to survive. Communication has been worn down to the basics; smoke signals, horns, hand signals, trained hawks to deliver scripts.
Head Quarters is just between the borders of Northern California and Oregon, in the forest. Along one of the many mountains in the vast land, there is a waterfall. Behind that waterfall is a cave which leads into the underground tunnels of where most Rebels call home. This place is called Utopia.
Utopia is mostly for women and children and is always heavily guarded, the land is vast and plentiful and is what has kept the people alive. Meetings of utmost secrecy and importance is held in Utopia, but troops are usually out on missions or distracting Big Brother from their home base. All rebels are given a capsule they may take if captured. Some people do not take it and are placed in the detention center on D restriction. This means they are constantly monitored and isolated until they are deemed behaved well enough to "rejoin civilization". At this point they are put on "C" restriction where they are constantly accompanied with a guard as they are introduced back into civilization and part time isolation. No inmates from above ground will be placed on B restriction until they agree to take medication, which most eventually consent to. On B restriction they are allowed to mingle with civilization without a guard, and allowed a single room that is not on constant surveillance. Only the best behaved or highly medicated are allowed on A restriction which gives free reign over the whole base which has a food court, a movie theater, shopping centers (not clothes, just household products, toys, books)...
EVERYTHING is censored, no one underground knows the truth. All forms of media (TV, news, books, movies) is controlled and is being used to brainwash those in captivity. Soldiers occasionally return to tell stories of above ground activity, but even they are lied to. Any troops that come across compromising information are bombed mercilessly before they can express doubts in their leaders further, and they believe those they fight are the enemy, not their fellow Americans.
The rebellion has many names, but they prefer to just call themselves the people. At the time that people began to go underground, there was about 315 million people residing within the USA. About 20 million went underground, leaving millions behind. These people were slaughtered and those who got away were hunted. These are the thinkers, the challengers, and therefore are unwanted seed in the human race. The rebellion knows too much, but Big Brother knows the most brilliant of the human race is what consist of the people. Now they wish to capture the rebels and medicate them into submission, using their skills for the very same people they fought to defy.
There is talk of the rapture, that soon God will return to collect his children. With the world in shambles, most people turn to God just to keep their sanity. It is rumored that soon Jesus will return to his people, even sights of Angels in battle or in the sky watching over. The talk on the street is that humanity has been given an extension to prove their worthiness to their God. It lays in the hands of the people to right the wrongs of our ancestors. 
1. I will not be silenced.

6. I will maintain my humanity.
7. I will work to enlighten the ignorant.
8. I will not be swayed by false prophets.
9. I will fight for my liberty.
10. I will not let them take me alive.
Living in an uncivilized society, the rebels are considered "savages" or "wild". These people are not rich in possession but in spirit. Compassion, love and respect are the core of their beliefs. Of course there is some conflict, but it is handled accordingly. The people know that turning on each other is just was Big Brother would want, their common enemy binding them all closer than blood. There are about 200,000 people living within the mountains. Utopia is strictly women and children, families seeking refuge and safety, about 10,000 families live within Utopia. Those leading the rebellion also stay within Utopia, and Soldiers return on occasion for rest and unwinding. Across the states there is a speculated one million citizens remaining above ground, and only about 75% are active in the rebellion. Some people just struggle to survive, convinced their voice will never be heard. The People will not give up, the sake of humanity depends on it.

*these roles are ones that makes your character vulnerable to death. If your character is attacked and you are not around to respond, they will simply be killed off.
I will be judging your character submissions as examples of your writing, this is a literate roleplay, anything less is not accepted
Is this a fantasy roleplay?
Although this roleplay has some biblical references, it is not fantasy. Angel characters are welcome, although I am not open to hybrid characters. Those coming down to assist the human race is permitted, or even fallen Angels assisting the New World order is okay. Anything besides that and humans would just be better off at a different roleplay.
Won't we get confused with different times and locations?
I will make sure to post unbiased third party narratives that can help guide along and direct the story line for multiple characters to keep us all on track to moving the plot forward. Also I know RPG allows different boards for different locations, so hopefully I can set that up right and allow for minimal confusion. If yourself and another character are caught in a moment in time while everyone else moves around them that's okay, just wrap it up as quick as possible and try to stay pertinent to the plot.
What if I really want to make a character but don't have time to commit to the roleplay?
Sometimes all the fun is in creating a character, we understand this. Just know that in doing so, you may not return to a live character. You are more than welcome to create other characters and restart.
Can I just jump in?
If you feel as if the plot is too complex and far along to join, you are wrong! Just as for a recap i will be more than happy to give and join the party! Looked forward to your posts :*
