---------------------------------- Introduction The evening is still and cold, and it becomes more and more dim as the sun sets. There is no sound apart from the click of your nails on stone roads as you cross streets. You are lost, and you ache all over, but you cannot stop. The mutants kill the ones who stop. As the golden sunset becomes more and more vivid, you are hit with the realization that you’ve returned to an intersection you’ve visited before. You’re not making any progress. Despair fills you. You need to lie down; just for a moment, to regain your composure, then you can go on. Just as you are about to let yourself collapse to the stone beneath you, you hear a voice. “Hello?” You stand, and turn to face the mutt who stands some distance away. As he approaches, his stance becomes less defensive, and a there is concern in his deep blue eyes. His tail wags back and forth a bit. “You’re scared, aren’t you?” He turns in the opposite direction. “Come with me. I can help you.” You hesitate; he is a stranger, but he seems kind. He is large enough to take down a mutant, but appears to be gentle. You decide to go with him. He slows down when your hunger makes you weak, and reassures you, telling you that you’ll be alright. He leads you to an abandoned town, one with sand and bits of stone instead of roads. There is an immense building with its door destroyed, and there is sound coming from within it. Hope tugs at your heart, but you can’t let it in, in case this is a trick of some sort. The dog brings you inside, and the hope breaks in. There are well fed and groomed dogs milling about in the building, some laughing and talking, others arguing, but all of them comfortable. This dog truly is attempting to help you. “My name is Strong, and this is my pack,” he announces. “I’’d like you to meet the Strays.” ---------------------------------- Basics StrayZone is an RP (Role Play) group. It revolves around a pack of dogs in a post apocalyptic setting based in a town named NeoHaven. This pack is called “The Strays.” The strays are split into a pair of gangs, Solstice and Equinox. The Strays remain indoors at night, for dangerous mutants roam the streets at night going by the name of Samhain. During the day, they compete in competitions to remain fit and entertained. Each dog in the pack gets to choose their gang. Solstice stands for strength and valor. Equinox values mental preparedness and intelligence. Become a Stray and choose which gang you belong to. Let the competition begin! The Gangs Solstice - Do some consider you to be too bold, or to have opinions that are too strong? Do you stand up for yourself, and have a strong sense of justice? If you do, you might connect with the Solstice gang. This subdivision of the pack trains their members to be courageous, and not to let fear stop them. They are undaunted by those who side against them, and remain true to their hearts. If this sounds like you, then join the Solstice gang. Welcome to Solstice. Equinox - Are you calculating and intelligent? Is education important to you, and do you analyze situations thoroughly? If so, you might click with the Equinox gang. This gang values intellect, and teaches its members how to manipulate thought and persuade others. They are more defense oriented, but they are no cowards. If this sounds like you, become a part of the Equinox gang. Welcome to Equinox. Samhain - One of the largest packs, but the meanest and unforgiving.The Samhain pack are the mutants of the city, dismembered limbs, rotting flesh and strange appearances, their leader is ruthless and will stop at nothing to destroy Solstice and Equinox. This pack is not for the faint of heart and requires special permission (from one of our admins) for your joining. Welcome to Samhain. Unknown group Bear: "The presence of crows and magpies in the area has risen significantly. This wouldn't be a problem if they didn't have the tendency to steal things. There's often laughter in the sewers beneath the streets as if people are down there but, ah it's probably nothing but my imagination. Now...Where did my keys go?" Joining This group is - semi open for now!
