Welcome to Gaia! ::

Alliances/Ranks

The Archers: Some are just waiting to die, some were raised into the position of an Archer. They are the outcasts of Earth simply because of an illness they had no control over, and obviously that makes this party furious. They are a very close people and would stick up for each other no matter what. Most are resilient and crass, but for all their coarse pretense the Archers are just like any other human being. (They just hate all the other human beings.) They have formidable weapons, considering that before they were chucked into the wilderness to die they were given some provisions. Or, at least enough to wander safely away from a dome. Archers are, unfortunately, fighting a losing battle.

Subranks:

Scavengers: They're the ones who look for food. No s**t, eh?

Midwives/Mothers/Nurturers: Believe it or not, yes these are ranks. They are for raising children, Teaching them how to read and write and speak, showing them what's right and wrong. There's no longer a religion among Archers, so they don't learn prayer and believing in God from them. Despite the job description, men and women both apply for it. (And sometimes have no choice but to.) Generally these are the people with mild cases of arrows.

Soldiers: They . . . attack. For lack of better word. They're fast, they are artful, they're devious. Weapons are everything and anything they can get their hands on, and they're good at what they do. All the ones who weren't are dead.

Miscellaneous: Whatever you'd like to suggest. PM me if you have an idea for subrank, or just don't apply for one.

The Javelins: Uninfected by arrows and vaccinated against the disease, the Javelins are the lucky people who have yet to discover the awful feeling of their flesh being melted away by acid. The people live in domes resistant to the rain, the earth is pure, as is the water. In a chemically treated sort of way. Technology hasn't gotten any farther, but it's creepig slowly toward new discoveried. One of them being the nuisance that are the Archers. Javelins are seriously degraded after a very long time of fearing infection, and would not hesitate to shoot down any Archers that come after them.

Subranks:

Scout: The poor souls that are forced out of the domes to force out invading Archers and Skalens. Generally they prefer snipering than outright killing with, say, a shot gun, but others have something to prove and stand right there and cut down the enemy lines.

Scientists: Researchers, generally. They tell the engineers what to do when there's a big problem in need of fixing. They're a highly respected bundle of the community.

Engineers: They fix things. Be it a clock or a waterpipe, they're skills of trade vary from one to another.

Cooks: Self-explanatory

Medical Unit: Self-explanatory. Again, there's a wide variety of jobs that can fill this subrank.

The Skalens: The Javelins that became infects by arrows, either by Archers or by an accidental exposure to the virus. They're against both sides, even if they breathe the same air as the 'savages' known as Archers. They hate the Javelins because in their time of need, they were ostricized, and the dislike for Archers was raised from the very beginning. Fear spawns disgust, which turns to hatred.

There are no subranks, they're largely lawless and don't like anyone else.
