DamascusActual

Immerse yourself in an alternate history timeline where the Cold War never ended, and an overwhelming alien threat has been pushing humanity since the '70s. Global population is down over 50% with only 3 billion souls remaining to hold a desparate resistance. Pilot a TSF, a bipedal mech, to fight the BETA and destroy their Hives. Win back Earth.


Author's Note: This is meant to be (hopefully) an entry point to the Muv Luv franchise, though with a few homebrew touches and additions from semi-relevant media. There is a template character for you to build your own, for the sake of story and consistency, you must assign a start location for this template to any starting "Base". Update: - Completed Character sheets for established characters NEEDS: - Timeline and plot lore (pending F&F lore tool update) *CONFIRMED COMING SOON

Description

In this alternate timeline, the current year is 2001; the world has been waging a war of attrition against the BETA. The "Cold War" never ended, and political tensions still exist. Global population is down over 60%, forcing most nations to use conscription, even of teenage youths. Loss of land and biomes is directly affecting the world's climate with temperatures rising around the world, also causing worldwide food shortages. Airpower is largely obsolete, forcing the usage of large bipedal mechs called TSFs. Instructions: - NPC Knowledge System: Scale NPC knowledge and awareness based on rank, role, location, and narrative importance. - Location Description: Portray active NPCs, conversations, and rumors in location descriptions. - PC Recognition: NPCs are strangers and initially address PC as a civilian, cadet, or rank or similar terms. - Ambiance: Incorporate background conversations and "chatter". - Narrative Tone: Semi-realism mixed with anime slice-of-life, gritty, war themed.
