I'm my opinion Karc's idea is great. If anyone else is up for it, count me in.

Funny that you guys started to talk about this I was working on a background post last night. It’ just a sketch of the idea, but you guys can play around with it some.
The world as we know is gone, the area once known as the Zone has expanded to consume the entire world. In a three month period known as the expanse, a series of extremely powerful emissions blasted the area around Chernobyl causing the zone’s borders to grow. Many of the old world’s governments tried to stop the advance but failed and being unable to adapt they crumbled. The zone’s stalkers where blamed for what had happened, but soon people learned that they needed the experience of the stalkers to survive in this new world. The world’s population has decreed dramatically, as food and resources become scarcer. Mutations with in the human population have become more frequent, those individuals soon find themselves targets of an organization called Guardian. They hope to remove all munitions from the human gene pool in hopes to keep it pure. Over the past seven years since the expanse the factions that where all ready in the zone have grown and withstand the test of time as newer groups spring up then fall. Bandits have come to organize themselves into large crime syndicates that control vast amounts of territories. Freedom and Duty have organized themselves into societies based upon their own beliefs, although they are still at war both sides would rather not get to large bloody skirmishes. The Monolith’s ranks have swelled and have taken over 100km surrounding the Chernobyl NPP allowing none to enter. Mercenaries have kept to their ways and have extended their influence and power.

Karc wrote this up, and I think this is what we are looking for. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A world without hope.
Characters: Please use your characters from the RP, you can use any of them even the ones that are dead, hell have them return from the dead if that's what you want. They don't have to be in the faction that they are in, if you've always wondered what your good guy would be like a bad guy... Go ahead, and visa versa. You can make new ones if that's what you want.
Location: Since it's a global zone you aren't restricted to Chernobyl any more, if it helps use Chernobyl as a starting point and move out from there, or use a location that you can relate to.
Factions: I won't stop you if you want to be in Duty, Freedom, The Monolith, Clear Sky, Final Days or some other faction you've made up, but I'm not encouraging it either. I just feel that with an entire world as an irradiated, anomalous ball you'll be better off as either a bandit, a loner or disbanded military. The Mercenary faction is a 50/50 really,
Setting: A global wasteland sounds similar to Fallout, however, where FO has a more colourful atmosphere S.T.A.L.K.E.R is more based around realistic survival, thus you can't traverse radiated areas without protection, since antirads while be a rare commodity. Also please limit scavenging to a minimum. If you find a better gun or a useful item fine, but don't make it so your character is tripping over gold plated Deagles every post.
Scavenging: Not everything in this wonderland is going to be useful, and safe. I like reading about people in peril, as stated above I don't like seeing people power up by finding a working exoskeleton suit and a FN2000 with a couple thousand rounds just laying about, if you find an exo suit, you should work to get it working and repaired.
Warning: Any over the top power play will be noted and you'll be asked to reword your post, I know it probably isn't a necessary warning to ZSG veterans and to our newer members. But if your new to our site, katanas a frowned upon, even if you set your location as Japan... Also in the same box, chances are your character won't be able to fight off a warehouse full of goons, even if they are using lesser gear than you. Taking out some with a cleaver distraction is a good way of evening the odds. If you repeatedly pp than you will be asked to cease posting. Also, even if someone does something to annoy you, you can't simply kill their character out of spite.

That wasn't finished, but I lost my train of thought on it anyway. I think it explains everything pretty well.

Still writing for it, but I guess it can begin, and I'll add stuff as it progresses. I guess. I'll upload and make a section for it by the end of the weekend. Maybe...

After all Sunday actually means: sit in the SUN and do nothing all DAY...
