Angara Death Zone (an 18+ Discord-Based Multi-Fandom RP Group)
An underground city, an enigmatic old man, a vast expanse of land that hasn't been explored in over a thousand years, a myriad of animals, five quirky but lovable leaders, and a past shrouded in mystery whose nature is steeped in murmuring from the population.
You'll find all this and more in Angara Death Zone, a multi-fandom Discord roleplay group that takes a less traditional approach to the post-apocalyptic genre (arguably, it should be called "post-post-apocalyptic), with a healthy dose of mystery. It's a story of all that is good and all that is bad within humanity, set against the backdrop of wetlands featuring a heart-shaped lake. Our group has no member cap, nor do we have an immediate plans to implement one, so reserves are always open!
We have more details for you under the cut, but if you're short on time, here are some quick links!
The Setting: Angara Death Zone is set in a world in which a catastrophe of unknown origins forced an unknown number of the population into an underground city known as the Cache. Whatever the disaster was, it resulted in the appearance of a poorly-understood force known as Waves, which humans have adapted to over generations. The Waves have weakened in recent centuries, allowing some intrepid people to establish settlements outside the Cache.
Upon arrival, your muse may feel a bit stir crazy as they'll be dragged inside the Cache for their own safety - Waves are especially dangerous to those previously completely unexposed, leading to painful mutations and even death in someone with no resistance - but with time and patience, they'll be able to experience life outside the Cache for themselves.
The People: Those who reside in the Cache have developed a strong sense of community and a somewhat morbid sense of humor, but they are unfailingly kind, even to complete strangers. OOC, you will take a quiz to determine which Direction your muse will fall into. Directions are a source of camaraderie and companionship, grouping people with similar beliefs and values together so as to provide everyone with a social network. Each Direction is led by a competent leader with a unique approach to their position.
Will your muse end up with the kind`and occasionally mischievous mortician, Vera? The stern and practical ranger, Mikaves? The eccentric yet knowledgeable historian, Erin? The shy yet thoughtful veterinarian, Ethan? Or will they end up with the sweet and encouraging zoo director, Susie? Wherever they end up, they'll find a wide array of colorful personalities.
There's also the Hunter Town on the outside, known for being resilient, but also warm and welcoming. They are a merry group of people, despite the dangers that come with living outside the Cache. While no other major settlements have been discovered or established in the immediate area, who knows what else could be out there?
The Creatures: Whoever it was that established the Cache was very animal-conscious, storing a wide variety of samples of animals from their time in order to regrow them. However, these samples were all affected by Waves, causing these creatures to be much less familiar than their counterparts from the time. From koalas who have two heads to echidnas capable of weaponizing their spikes and doing large-scale pest control, you'll find the wildlife in Angara Death Zone to be fascinating and oddly charming.
The Mysteries: Your muse will experience odd events before they arrive, and they won't stop once your muse has fallen into the lake. They'll learn of a time more than a thousand years ago that locals call the Bygone Era, a brief but presumably eventful time following a large span collectively referred to as the ancient age. The strangest thing about the Bygone Era is that next to nothing is known about it, and even some mysteries uncovered in some recently-discovered ruins leave a very unfinished picture of what things looked like back then, or what caused the great disaster of that time.
Ancient though they may be, those mysteries may very well hold the secret to your muse's return home.
The Choices: Is your muse curious and benevolent? Are they entirely apathetic and content to leave the past undisturbed? Or are they cruel and power-hungry, only serving the agendas of others if doing so will benefit them in turn? Your muse will find a course of action in Angara Death Zone via the Path system, and their actions will shape their lives in their strange new home.
The Perks: Being isekai'd isn't easy, especially when your muse has some restrictions at first. Even so, there's much to discover within the Cache, and they can obtain incredible abilities as their Wave resistance increases. Will they use the synthesis rooms to create that which they couldn't back home? Will they find a new job with flexible hours and fair pay, possibly even letting them start over from a past they couldn't escape in their previous world? Maybe they'd even be willing to unlock the potential that the Waves have granted their bodies, letting them mutate in a way that's safe for them and that will grant them new powers?
The Inspirations: With the unique and varied interests within the mod team, we've managed to create a group drawing from many different sources. As gamers, we've looked to titles like Fallout, Chaos Rings, Harvestella, Horizon Zero Dawn, and we've even drawn bits and pieces from Final Fantasy and Rune Factory. The music of My Chemical Romance has played a part in the group, as have educational and documentary-style programs like The Crocodile Hunter and Life After People. This range of inspirations has allowed us to create a setting and story that will keep our members invested and intrigued.
The Goals: We wanted to create a place where roleplayers can express creative freedom while getting to know others and share ideas. Above all, we want to create a space that is safe and well-run, while also valuing communication and honesty between mods and members alike. We strive to make people feel welcomed and included when they join.
If this sounds like the group for you, we look forward to seeing you, and if you have any questions, you can always send us a message here or on our Twitter account, @AngaraDeathZone!
Today's and Sunday's because apparently we forgot to post for that one too! It's been pretty empty so I hope everyone's out enjoying their summer. Anything sent in after this point will be handled on Friday!
Another one in the books. How is it already almost August?! Time just isn't real. Anything received after this point will be handled on Sunday! Have a great weekend!
