[Steampunk/Dieselpunk, Assassin, Wasteland RP Also Alternate Universe and Timeline]
They were only known as the Assassins Order, devoted to keeping the world free from evil, corruption and deceit through political manipulation, contracted kills and organised revolutions, they were the opposite of what you suspect assassins would be. It was not the biggest Kingdom on the planet but surely one of the strongest. Nobody knows when it was founded but records stretch back as far as the invention of records themselves. Over the years they had survived countless attacks from other kingdoms and warlords.
1250- Survived the 10 Slaughterings of the Bughal Empire 1412-Repelled the Invasion of the Masonic Order 1682- Stopped the Incandance Empire and the Sigil Order, 2 of the largest empires at the time from invading homeland territory.
But around the 1700's they all vanished off the face of the Earth. The major leaders in the Assassin Order were missing, and soon the Assassins succumbed to the attacks of various powerful empires at the time. One Order that had survived countless assaults and invasions had been mysteriously crushed in less than 6 months. For fear of their lives most assassins blended in with society and told nobody of their past but their sons/daughters, and a small chain of assassins carried on through the years, that chain getting smaller and smaller as people were found out or they died of natural causes.
1942 Today the world is in a worse shape than when the Assassins left. People fight wars constantly and boundaries of nations are constantly shifting. At around 1903, due to the progress in mining technology massive reserves of oil were found underground and the abundance of oil caused a technological revolution. Combustion engines were used for just about everything, the Air industry boomed as the use of fuel to power massive airships for Transporting, Warfare and even living on. The mining and the pollution took its toll on the landscape, killing plants and causing global climate change that turned over half the planet into an unforgiving desert, only very small clumps of Rainforest and Foliage still remained, some say that oil was more common than water.
The rich left this problem behind and lived above the muck and toxic land in massive floating airships that could stay airbourne practically forever, having their own floating societies and leaving the poor to fight amongst themselves for food and clean water. This created a massive divide and soon the poor were trying to damage the airships to seek revenge, this escalated into a full scale global war. Rich V.S Poor.
The Poor named themselves the LDRA (Land Dwellers Revolutionary Army) and sought to destroy the Rich, which employed an armed force called the ACPF (Airbourne City Protection Force). the LDRA built what weapons they could out of junk and scrap whilst the ACPF maintained a well equipped and trained army, but the LDRA outnumbered the ACPF 100 to 1. Still they were fighting a loosing battle.
You have lived on the ground for around 18 years, struggling to cope on the ground. Having to live in a polluted world for all of your known life. Now it changes. You have found out you are in a long line of heritage assassins, you, your father and mother both were ancestors of these people...and now you must fight for justice. Over the next few years you trained, becoming fluent in various forms of combat and movement, you learn of a rumour that has been circling for years now but nobody was brave enough to check it out. The Assassins Tomb.
Some say that an Assassins Tomb exists in a desolate part of the world, and that inside it may hold the key to why the Assassins perished...and how to restore peace to this ravaged world.
-Information- Before you join I hope you have decent spelling and grammar skills, and because of this I ask you to submit a CS in story like form. Use mine as an example. Guns exist but in the form of 1940's weapons, like WW2, you may use a fictional gun or something that i list below. This also applies for vehicles (Except for the massive airships). Your attire may be anything you wish that defines Assassin, though i ask you have to have some kind of breathing apparatus or Air filter.
-Weapon Examples- Daggers (Can be wrist mounted) ShortSwords Curved Blades Tomahawks/Axes (Throwable) Throwing Knifes Small Javelin Battle Staff (Can be Sharp) Longbows Shortbows Crossbow Dart Gun Bolt Action Rifle Revolver Pistol (Also can be Wrist mounted) Sniper Rifle Improvised Explosives
Can be something not on this list, although i must approve of it. Also dont go overboard on weaponry, obviously the more you carry the less you can move.
Things to Include in CS Your name, first and last. Your age must be around 20ish, Your physical appearance and your attire. What weapons you carry and what fighting style and skills you possess, any items you carry with you and your previous backstory. Any CS's submitted in this style Nam.e A.ge Appearance Ect Will not be accepted...story like please.

Andrei Reznov is a tall man, about 6'2. He has a average build. Andrei has short black-grey hair, to match his beard. His long black coat hangs to his shins, he wears a fur cap. He is quite old. Andrei is about 45, a veteran of the war.
He carries a PPSH machine gun and a serrated knife.

(I really like Assassins. me join)
Saik Horion is a slightly tanned male standing at 1.85 meters. He is strong, but not too strong so that his bulk limits his speed. He has dark green eyes and short, messy brown hair. His clothing consists of medium brown pants and a darker brown shirt, with a black belt at his waist. He also wears leather gloves and on his head a a dark brown hood. (like Assassin's Creed, sort of.) He has leather boots.
He uses a single tomahawk and a wrist-mounted blade/dagger. He is very skilled with the tomahawk, especially in throwing it. He has only recently acquired his dagger, so he is not very experienced with that weapon yet. His fighting style would be quick and silent, dispatching from a distance with his tomahawk or assassinating unnoticed with his dagger. |

Wow I seriously did not read this well enough.
He also carries a small bottle of poison at all times, carried in a leather satchel on his belt.
Backstory: He found out about his Assassin history at the age of 12, and on recommendation of his father started training his body and mind right after. He hasn't really participated much in the war, but he plans to do so now. |

(Yay!)
Saik Horion
I walked on the street, watching my feet once in a while to make sure I didn't trip in one of the many holes in this badly-maintenanced piece of asphalt.
(How do we get up to the aircrafts?) |

Fine, he will be 26. Backstory;
Andrei was born into poverty, his family was a big part of the assassin order, he didn't find this out until 14 years of age. He then started to train, he mostly trained with guns, but he can climb.

Josiah Baxter, some say he looks older for his age, well inhaling toxic fumes does that to you. In reality he is 24 but the paleness and roughness of his skin makes him look far than that. Josiah has a small trimmed stubble on his chin that covers most of the bottom of his face. Above that he has pale blue eyes and a mop of untrimmed and matted brown hair. Not that it shows however because most of the time he has a pale brown hood tucked over his head, and around his mouth he has a brown rag that helps keep most of the fumes at bay. For his clothing he mostly wears a dark brown long coat with metal plates protecting his left elbow and forearm, the other arm houses a sleeved dagger. Under his coat is a black shirt with metal plates protecting his body, below this he has a belt with various sheaths and holsters that hold up his dark brown baggy pants that are tucked into black combat boots.
For weaponry he favours the 'Slow is smooth, Smooth is Fast' approach, slung across his back is an old war 4K Bolt Action Infantry Rifle with a scope, in his right holster is a Fast Action Magnum Revolver, his left is a small war axe and up his sleeve is a rather long dagger for close encounters.
Josiah, like most of the children grew up in the slums of Lodium, a large town that liked to soak up crime, and so he got involved. At first it was only to impress the older kids and he stole bread and water from local markets, but then it moved to stealing things from homes and selling them on. He got caught multiple times, but because of the war prisoners were the least of the poor peoples concern. When he was 18 he went to enlist in the armed forces...not because he wanted to but because his 'friends' were. That was until his father told him of his heritage...his past and his destiny. Josiah changed and became engrossed in the history of the assassins and trained his body and his mind to become an elite warrior. |

I forgot to put my items gah
Josiah carries around his objects in a satchel slung opposite to his rifle. Inside it he has a variation of items including foodstuffs, water container, purifying tablets, rifle ammo, a map and compass, pencil and a notebook, a roll of bandages, some sanitising liquid and a rope with a hook. |

(Might as well start now)
[Loppoh, Caprex, Terrifying, Me] You receive a letter from a shady man in a hood, it is simply marked with 'To whom it concerns' on the front in smart black handwriting. The envelope is silky smooth and rather elegantly sealed with a red tie. Before you can question the man he vanishes into the thick fog.
[Josiah]
I called after the man 'Sir?...Sir?', but there was no reply. I shrugged and untied the red bow that looped around the letter and pulled out a single white sheet of paper. |

Andrei runs his fingers across the seal, he then unties it, opening it carefully.

[Andrei] You untie it and a single piece of paper flutters to the floor.
