Let's see if we can get this to make sense.
 
A multifandom [[Play -By -Post Games|Livejournal]] roleplaying game set [[After the End|in the aftermath]] of an unknown apocolyptic event on a planet called Fortuna. Players control characters taken by a group of scientists to Fortuna, and dumped in the deteriorated remains of the city Discedo. Said characters struggle to survive through various [[The World Is Always Doomed|events]] thrown at them by nature or the scientists themselves.
 
The game was originally located at [http://community.livejournal.com/discedo/profile LiveJournal], but it then later moved to [http://discedo.dreamwidth.org/profile Dreamwidth].
Line 39:
* '''Klaus''': A hermit who lived in a cabin in the woods outside of Discedo and died there alone of natural causes. He apparently grew up in Discedo, but left when things started to go bad.
** [[Posthumous Character]]: Was first encountered in the spring of 2010… as a skeleton. Has been mentioned in several plots since.
** [[Alas, Poor Yorick]]: His skull was used to act out the scene in question, no less.
* '''Molly''': The head anchor of Discedo's 8 O'Clock News. Loud, obnoxious, crazy, childish, and more than slightly snarky.
** [[Comedic Sociopathy]]: That's putting it lightly.
Line 84:
* [[Fictional Country]]: Several, all based on European ones.
* [[Foreign Cuss Word]]: The in-game language barrier allows several characters to have fun with this.
* [[Fountain of Youth]] / [[Overnight Age -Up]]: Has been used in a few popular events.
* [[GMPC]]: The Scientists, played by the mods. Also the only original characters.
* [[Gratuitous Foreign Language]]: crops up now and then, thanks to a lack of automatic translation in the city.
Line 104:
* [[Properly Paranoid]]: Gohl House is the [[Pandemic|Madagascar]] of Discedo. Fair enough, since their roof has been destroyed at least four times in about two years.
* [[Random Encounters]]: The city is home to monsters from the various canons of the characters in the game. Subverted in that the players often can choose whether to encounter them or not
* [[Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies]]: A theme in several plots, from earthquakes to invading armies.
* [[Running Gag]]
** [[Axis Powers Hetalia|The countries]] having really wild New Year's parties resulting in one of them vanishing.
