Dead earth RP Wiki



Welcome to the Dead earth RP Wiki
The year is around 4595. The world population is 200 million, and most of the technology you enjoy now has long been forgotten. How did this happen?

Oddly enough, not by apocalypse. By 3100, the world was just about as ready for one as it could get: the solar system was totally overpopulated, and the huge infrastructure that made that amount of people viable was just about out of resources. Not to mention, the sun suddenly became especially active for a few decades. Electrical systems all around the inner planets were failing left and right, and the technicians were repairing things just as fast as they could. It was a recipe of disaster.

A recipe never fulfilled: in 3124, a young genius named Isaac O'Leary made a breakthrough in physics that allowed for (relatively) easy interstellar travel. Within a few decades, the technology was made reality, and interstellar colonial efforts were already underway. Unfortunately, Earth was nearly unusable at this point. It was totally overpopulated, with over 17 billion people living on the surface alone, there were almost no usable resources left, and the environment was completely decimated. So, the only people who really wanted to stay on Earth were the heretics who went against the state. These were ignored by the State anyway, and anybody who escaped the regular inquisitions were simply left behind. The State migrated itself to the Alpha Centauri system. It is said that they lead very good lives up there.

The lives of those on Earth was utterly wretched. The rest of the Solar system was far too absorbed with itself to give aid to the old, depopulated planet. Solar storms made most of the old technology unusable. Cities fell into ruin. The biosphere went through a massive extinction event on par with that of the Permian Extinction. Through all of this, humanity persevered. Over the millenia, the rest of the solar system suffered a similar fate to that of Earth, as their artificial biospheres fell into ruin and their resources started to run out. Uranium and hydrogen were the two most expensive commodities.

So, the stragglers rebuilt with a nearly clean slate, forming new states and social structures. Some aren't even human anymore, with the advent of genetic engineering. This RP is about Earth, and the settlements there. We have some of the old tech, like genetic enhancers or fusion reactors, but mostly things are new.
