My Useful Information Thread

PLEASE
Don't post here.
This is not an OOC thread for writers.
This is an information repository for the RPs
in which I am writing.

Thank you very much. ​

"The Postman: Rural Route 99"

• Calendar of Events

In the days and weeks to come, I will be adding pages here with OOC information, facts, figures, thoughts, character profiles, and more.

The purpose of this thread is to make this information easily accessible by my writing partners.

"The Postman: Rural Route 99"

Good Things To Know​

Role Play Starting Date: March 2040

Primary Location of the Role Play: Little Island, Washington. (To be further described when I have the time. For now, see the first post of the IC thread.)

Calendar:

• 2018: The Doomwar occurs. Very little information is known about the war:
  • Bio-weapons, followed by nuclear weapons resulted in the eventual deaths of 95% of America's population.
  • Seattle (WA), Spokane (WA), Boise (ID), and Portland (OR) are known to have been nuked. Beyond that, our characters know nothing factual about the US beyond a distance of about 300 miles from Little Island.
• 2022: Little Island was established. (As I said, see below).
• 2033: The Postman comes onto the scene. (If you know the movie, you know the history here.)
• 2034: The Postman takes command of and then disbands the Holnist army.
• 2038: The USPS begins servicing the small community of Little Island, which is located somewhere in the triangle of wilderness bordered by the former State of Oregon to the south, the Grande Ronde river to the Northwest, and the Snake River (and former state of Idaho) to the northeast. (Google map link, should you be inclined to look.)
• March 2040:
  • Luke comes to Little Island to establish a USPS Regional Distribution Center (which sounds major and official but is little more than a post office intended to service more communities at greater distances than most).
  • Luke recruits Alex as a postal carrier.
