In 2149, all life on Earth is threatened by pollution, atmospheric gases, food shortages, disease, war, and many other things. Poverty and sickness is everywhere. The sky is always covered by gas-filled clouds. The air is not safe to breathe without air masks on while outside. Population laws prohibit families from having more than two children. Yea, the list goes on. After scientists discovered a rift in spacetime, they began sending large groups of people, pilgrimages, 85 million years into Earth's Cretacious perid to a different time stream. The first few pilgrimages were in charge of building a large setlment that could support a vast number of people. After time, it was built. A massive, wooden fence around it (to keep the dinosoaurs and other creatures out), large feilds of fruits and vegtables in the center, along with wind turbines to provide electricity, Terra Nova was the perfect place for the human race to start over. Try again....or that's what they always said.
There are two main dangers for the colonists of Terra Nova, of course, the hostile dinos (if you leave the setlement), and the Sixes. They're called that because they were the people that came on the sixth pilgramage. No one really knows much about them except that soon after they arrived, they left the setlement and created their own, miles away from Terra Nova. They are constantly sneaking into Terra Nova and stealling food, supplies, and power. They're one of the main reasons Terra Nova needs a secruity team.
*You can rp a six if you want but their ranks are different. If you do make a six, just kind of make up your own thing. My six is a sout. ^^
Colony Rules and Info
*Stay inside the gates at all times, unless accompanied by a member of the security team.
*Absolutely No One outside the gates at night unless in an emergancy.
*If anyone recognizes a Six in the gates, they are to report it asap.
*Food and other supplies are provided, and equally distributed. There should be no need to steal anything.
*If you feel the slightest discomfort or pain, alert a doctor or nurse. Better to be safe than sorry. Especially in a new invironment.
*If you've come on one of the newest pilgrimages, be reminded that there is no going back to our old home. Not that many people want to go back.
(Anyone have any suggestions for new rules or info?)
