(World that the characters will come from is a world with no humans, and all anthro characters. Original world is named Aros, and has a modern level of technology.)


Aros; a world of myriad species and interesting characters. Aro's top scientific institution, the Marloss institute of exotic research, has been experimenting with peeking into alternate dimensions. After several months of research, they had discovered so much; amazing, spectacular worlds with never before seen creatures and resources. However, their luck ran out. While investigating a previously unseen dimension, some force seemed to hijack their equipment. Readouts listed impossible numbers, circuits were fried, and reality itself was torn asunder. When the smoke cleared, everyone in the room vanished.


They had a gone to a world of danger.


A world of intrigue.


A world of adventure and discovery.


Welcome to the Under-Rail, jack.


Rules:


1.No Godmodding or Mary Sues


2.If you bring in strange fetishes, the people around you will act accordingly. If you randomly eat a man with your dick, expect others around you to open fire or attempt to save the person in trouble.


3.Don't be a scrub


Mechanics:


I will roll a d20 (with modifiers) when it seems necessary. The roll will be added to your characteristic score. If it is above the difficulty of the situation, you will succeed. A normal situation (firing a gun at a target standing in the open, sneaking past a sleepy and untrained guard) will be around 20, while extremely difficult situations (lifting a train overhead, talking down an extremely fanatical and brainwashed individual) will be around 60.


 Characters will have 8 stats; Strength, perception, intelligence, agility, constitution, persuasion, gun skill, and weapon skill.


Strength is self explanatory.


Perception is your ability to perceive things in the local environment that are not in plain sight.


Intelligence is self explanatory.


Agility is your ability to do athletic feats, such as sprinting or jumping.


Constitution is your ability to resist pain, harsh conditions, and damage.


Persuasion is your ability to negotiate with others, whether it be over prices or just asking someone something they don't want to say.


Gun skill is your skill with firearms.


Weapon skill is your skill with melee weaponry or your bare hands.

(posting order is: me, draconic, and Kirie)


Smoke, dust, iron...those were the last smells Sarlos Wyrd and Dominik Kayden experienced on their homeworld. Instantly after the explosion, they were catapulted into a realm of nothingness. The "sky" was a deep blue, and they felt no wind resistance. For several seconds they traveled through this void, too shocked to do anything. Then, they were ejected from a hole of pure nothingness back into real space. With little applause, the two fell flat on their asses in what appeared to be...a subway tunnel? The ground was lit with old, flickering lights, and the ground was cracked and pitted. The rails were barely in better shape; held together with what appeared to be makeshift repairs and hope. The tunnel stretched on in two directions.

While still shocked by all that happened he grumbled  all the way from the void till this strange but slightly familiar place ,the fact of seeing such thing as a thing as a subway after everything was ... comforting to a point ,the fact that is was in such a poor condition meant they probably would have to worry about being ran over by a train at this point .


He stood up and cleared any dirt or dust that may have gotten on his suit ,he turn to Sarlos "Sir  Wyrd i believe it would be best for us to follow one of the directions of the rail ,it is bound to lead us somewhere" he pointed to randomly to one of the directions of the tunnel ,he waited for Sarlos answer and following him if he complied to go towards ..somewhere that wasn't here .

For once, Sarlos knew how does the scrambled egg felt like. He had scatered memmories of a place he has just been, but he remembered the feelings about the place he saw - admiration and terror. But this tunell... well, all it gave Sarlos was a feeling of unease.
"First of, just Sarlos, or Wyrd. No 'Sir's', please, it gives me skincrawles. Secondly, You're to damn confident for a person, who popped ancestors knows where. Why exactly this direction? It doesn't look like better than any other, as far as I can see"

"As you wish Sarlos ,but back to our problem we should move unless you want to spend your life in an abandoned subway tunnel that is and while there is nothing that may prove one side better then the other we go back to my previous point ,so onward to the unknown" he take some small steps into the direction expecting Sarlos to follow.

The two walked for several minutes, before happening upon what appeared to be the scene of a battle. Several hulking chitinous creatures was laying dead on the ground, filled with bullet holes. Spent casings littered the floor, all surrounding the corpse of some unknown being. It appeared to have been turned into a pin cushion; dozens of spikes of bone filled it, oozing a green noxious liquid from it. Would you like to investigate the body?

"Well... we found something ... " he look down at the corpses "perhaps a battle between this two creatures happened here ... maybe the one under all the others can give some tips of the world we just got into ,please hold my Suit while i look into it and keep your eyes open for anything ..." he hand his suit to Sarus ,walking towards the creatures he roll up his sleeves and pull then out of then to then look at the one under everything.

"What ever it was..." Sarlos noticed accepting the felin's suit "It made a short work of it. And those gunholes... I take it someone in this place knows how to opeare a firearm. Are you sure it wise? Creatures like this can't be put down easily"

The corpse appeared to be of a furless creature, about 5 feet 8 inches. It somewhat resembled an ape back from your home planet, but with trimmed down features and a lighter build. His face was twisted in a silent scream, obviously cut off by death; clutched in his right hand was some sort of assault rifle, of a make you have never seen before. He (you think it was a he, judging by it's masculine appearance) was wearing a suit of makeshift armor; it appeared to be made of a mixture of leather and steel plating. He had some sort of tactical vest on as well, containing multiple magazines of ammunition and a molotov cocktail.

"Well it look like a ape ... that made part of that hippie idea of shaving all the fur ,i never understood that nonsense " he shrug " well at least he have some sort of weapon" he pick up the rifle "and molotov ... i think it may be best if we come prepared for what is out there considering the equipment this ape is holding " he pick the magazines and the molotov "here for you " he hand the molotov then clean his hands on the corpse and stand up and make sure the rifle is loaded "well ,i think we got what we could from this place .. shall we continue ?" he move his hand toward Saros asking for his suit back.

"Not really my style" Sarlos murmured weighting te bottle in his paw "But I'll guess it suffice for now... And since you are the one with a big gun than I suppose, byall means, lead the way..."

Besides the rifle, you also found a compass, which helpfully points North, confirming that this tunnel does in fact lead North and South. You also found what appeared to be a makeshift lighter built out of the casing of a 7.62mm bullet.


Judging from the size of the magazines, you have about 400 rounds in total. You can either continue forward, or go back the way you came; you can also investigate a door nearby, labelled "MAINTENANCE".

The room was very small (about the size of a living room) and contained some shelves and crates. For all intents and purposes, it was an over-glorified broom closet.

"Well, so much for 'creaping on our baks' " Sarlos gave a room another glimps in case if they've missed something, after which he joined the feine "Might I suggest to slow down a little? We are in position as ending just like that poor bastard down there?"

The two walked northwards, encountering more ruined rails. Every now and then they could see creatures skitter away into holes in the walls, or hear the echo of far off gunfire. Finally, they came upon a crossroads; the rail continued north, while to the east and west there was a road. A hand made crossroad sign read "Megaplex-20 miles north", "Prospector's landing-5 miles east", and "New Venice-10 miles West".

The two walked for about a hour. The road beneath them was surprisingly well maintained, and had clear tire marks along it. Along the way, they spotted what appeared to be entire towns, all underground. They were abandoned though; no lights shown there, and the only noise was the skittering of animals and other assorted creatures. Near the end of your journey, you started to see a light ahead of you, and a low noise. As you got closer and closer to the light, you realized what the noise was; the noise of civillization.


The tunnel finally opened up into another town section, this one larger than the others you have seen. Ahead of you was a wall made of concrete and topped with barbed wire. Directly infront of the road was a metal gate, operated by a re purposed cargo crane. It was guarded by around 20 of the creatures you saw before, all armed with rifles and what appeared to be riot armor with a duster covering it. The gate was also defended by 3 gun turrets, a red targetting laser marking where they aimed. Behind them, you could see dozens of lights beyond the wall, and the hustle and bustle of a small town. Do you wish to approach?

"Surely you won't..." But unfortunately Sarlos didn't had a cgance to end his sentence into the Dominik's ear "... waltz to their front doors *sigh* Fine then..." With this Sarlos tries to stick to the shadows reading the bottle with literal fire water, just in case
