97 years have passed since a nuclear war devastated all life on Earth, leaving very few survivors. Those who did survive often perished from the effects of the radiation which was one of the longer lasting reminders of the fatal conflict. Luckily not all human life was lost, for years before the nuclear blast ten of the world's most powerful countries put into orbit ten national space stations, all of which were carrying a controlled amount of human beings. Their motive was in response to the growing tensions among various nation-states, all of which were seeking total economic and territorial domination. Such greed from mankind is what led to the catastrophic event, one which the ten allied countries had assumed would occur. With the fate of human life in their hands, all ten stations eventually merged into one large station; The Ark.

The year is now 2104 and three generations have since survived in space. However, the future of the human race is now under threat, for with each passing day oxygen levels begin to decrease while the population increases. In an attempt to gain some time the decision is made to send one hundred juvenile criminals to Earth to know if it is survivable. It will be the first time in over ninety years that humans have returned home, and the state and secrets of the ground are completely unknown. Mankind is taking the next step into the future.
They are being sent down.


Welcome, survivor, to On The Ground! We are a semi-realistic roleplay, based on hit Tv Show The 100. If you are interested in joining, but you have not watched the series, it is completely fine!

Small Spoil Alert;

I would like you to know/remember that we are not going to follow the exact stories, plots, etc. for the roleplay. For example, if The 100 manage to enter Mount Weather, they don't have to irradiate the people. Perhaps our survivors can find another way to escape, given the moment. This is our story.

|The Hundred|

The group of humans who have returned to Earth from space are commonly referred to as The Hundred, Survivors, or Sky People. Upon first arriving to Earth this group of individuals managed to build themselves a home, using nothing but their own hands to form a camp. Their time on Earth proved to be nothing like life on the Ark, meaning they were forced to live in an environment completely foreign to them. This was achieved by establishing order in the form of social ranks.

The Leaders [ 2/2 ]
These individuals are the ones who stepped up and took charge when conditions became rough on the ground. These two sought to seek order, and achieved so by claiming a leader-like title. They are respected by those remaining survivors, for they have been the ones to make the tough decisions, as well as keep The Hundred out of harm's way.

- Athena Violet [ Legolas ]
- Hunter [ ChristiCat15 ]

The Guards [ 4/6 ]
There are many unknown dangers on the Earth, more than the teens ever could have suspected. With threats lurking around every corner some sort of protection had to be established. Under the leaders suggestions, the guards were created to protect those on the ground. Equipped with weapons formed by their own hands, the guards have the duty of putting their lives on the line for the rest of their small society.

The Trackers [ 3/6 ]
With a large amount of growing teenagers, the food levels must remain constant. This is where the trackers come in. These individuals are best suited in hunting wild animals, and tracking other sources of food, water, or even other persons.

- Ethan Fauhs [ Trash Panda ]
- Alrich Wolf [ Imperial Disease ]

The Medics [ 2/3 ]
On Earth there is no hospital, no medical enter, no doctors. If you get injured or hurt the chances of survival lower. However, not all hope is lost for there are those individuals who have medical skills. Although not as versed in the practice of medicine as actual doctors, these individuals are the closest things that those on Earth have. They are able to perform basic surgeries, as well as diagnose illnesses.

- Kato Davis [ Potato Lord ]
- Owen J. Caspella [ Timbavati ]
-

The Scientists [ 1/3 ]
Living from the land won't last forever and so the future of society lays in the hands of the scientists. Although they are not actually scientists, these individuals are the closest things the sky people have to them. These grew up learning a certain trade, let that be engineering, electrical, chemistry, physics, or biology. They are the ones who come up with new technology, medicine, and weapons.

|Clans and the Coalition|

In the post war eastern United States of America there are 12 clans. Clan names are geographically derived. Every clan has a leader. Every village within that clan has a leader. The leaders of the respective Grounder villages are warriors who have earned their place at the top through acts of strength and ferocity and through mentorship from previous leaders.

The Coalition is the collective name for the twelve clans who reside in the Eastern North American area. First united and lead by the Commander, and without, the Coalition would fail. Prior to that, the Ice Nation was the biggest threat to the alliance. Every clan has a leader who follows the Commander.

- Treekru ( Tree People ) ( Main Location; TonDC )
- Azgeda ( Ice Nation )
- Floukru ( Boat People )
- Sankru ( Desert Clan )
- Yujleda ( Broadleaf Clan )

These are only the main clans that have be seen in the show.
