Stuff.

Hammered stuff out with the rest of the admin, and here's what we came up with along with the second concept that was tossed out there. The on the constant run won't work due to lots of weeeeeeee ones already in the verse, it also does what we're looking to avoid doing and that's pushing people out. We want to pull us back into the basics, so here's the deal.

The Dalek invasion has some parts of the world, or in this case the United States looking far worse than others. The Three Families are able to exploit the lack of power, and they manage to take in political spots. The first thing they do is they do something to shut-up, and get hopefully Jack's Torchwood out of the way. They do the Non-Human Residents Act, and require anyone not from Earth or non-human to register themselves. Of course we'll give them the nice finger, and we look to go on the run. In come the Time Lords to summon us to Gallifrey, and to point out Earth's not to go terminal. We get sent back, the TARDIS/VM will be until we put an end to the Three Families tethered to Earth. We won't have them go cold, and they will serve a purpose to help pull us off the grid.

Afterwards, we end up back on Earth in a small abandoned town in the Pocono section of Pennsylvania called Promised Land Lakes. It's a real location the lake, and that picture give people an idea of what the area looks like. I'll just fill in the town layout for our own use, and just dub it Promised Land. ;)

It's an hour from Philly and NYC, there's also smaller cities in the area; Scranton, Allentown, Reading, Newark, and smaller still for people to poke at. The East Coast was one of the heaviest hit areas from the dalek invasion, New York City took the brunt of it thanks to the earlier attack on the City. The rest of the cities on the east coast have had their population halved. (Think Walking Dead or Revolution to get an idea). There's still populated small towns, cities near anything of tactical value are simply non-existent.

The town layout is small, we'll have the church/orphanage ran by Loki [livejournal.com profile] prince_loki, a safe haven school with Erik as the headmaster, and Boss Jack taking care of the town itself. Two farm houses, some cottage homes (nothing special), trailer park, hotel, clinic, garage, general store, pub, the lake, and some stuff outside of the town. I can stick some less than savory things on the outskirts, abandoned mills, and maybe an asylum to give those of our less savory types a place to hang out.

Well besides the Families, there's still the Rift. The spot was selected for this reason, the Time Lords have taken over what's happening with the one in Los Angeles (closed it), but there's still one here that still provides an entry point to this universe and needs to be protected. We still can keep our potential plots workable, ei: the angels become neck snapping types, Exodus Code becomes part of the main story arc, and once the Families are removed from power we'll restore time travel to the Time Lords.

The Families won't be the only thing to worry about, keeping the town stocked with vitals (food, fuel, medicine), other threats human and terrestrial/non-terrestrial, and things that will for the better part challenge our muses. There's going to be some moral issues (shooting a man with kids that's raiding our food, raiding another town that needs things just as badly..etc..things no longer become black and white.)

At the end, we keep the town and it becomes a matter of restoring Earth. We can begin to do time travel, finding alien allies..etc that would lend us technology to speed up the process.

School

This is an addition to the mod post that went up earlier today about the Torchwood town. Erik will be opening his version of Xaiver's School for Gifted Youngsters. This will not just be a school for mutants or super powered children but also any children in the town. He will need teachers and an assistant headmaster/mistress for when he needs to do things as a Knight of the Holy Cross as well as any other staff a boarding school might need.. All will be welcomed, Erik will also take in any new Rift drops until they have a home of their own. 

The school will be hidden as best as Erik can make it, so any help there would be welcomed as well since Erik believes God will provide for his new venture. *grins*

I picked the location in the Pocono's for a reason, not due to the creepy factor it has, but the two large cities on the east coast to play with. These places will have their population halved, many were killed and others moved west to escape the original attack. The planet still needs to rebuild, and those ports are still important.

The setting for these places would be Martial Law, gangs taking over the streets, but they are the king of king for gathering vital resources to survive.

The other is the smaller cities, Ei: Scranton (humming The Office theme), that have been completely abandoned, and there's going to be hospitals with drugs in them, there maybe food stores that still have warehouses full of food, and other things needed to get around in an area required for people hiding from Big Brother.

Besides making use of the land, we will have the fun of raiding places for things we need. It will be an every man and woman for themselves out here.
