    Biopunk, Werewolf...ish? and Anarchy!

    Okay, so I got this plot and ran with it, but it is intended to be a group rp so I need your input as to whether you would be interested in joining it, ideas to deepen it as well as suggestion for the layout and race abilities and such, so here is the premise I came up with:

    Long ago, the moon got destroyed by a comet, the residue of those two astral behemoths' mutual destruction wrapping around the earth atmosphere and blanketing it from the sun and stars in an ominous and maddening embrace. Indeed, this started the age of the Enlightened, which soon afterwards brought forth the horrors of the Garous.

    The initial crisis borne from the lack of sunlight and it's warmth permanently silenced those who thought the practice of genetic engineering as against nature and forced all of humankind to embrace it for it's survival, as the humans of old were not suited for the dramatic climatic changes the new atmosphere engendered.

    The as yet not Enlightened took refuge from the fatal weather deep underground and started changing themselves far more than they ever dared to before, taking resource from the earth, stone and ore they were encased in, the celestial dust that they were gifted with and even from the plants that still survive despite the lack of sunlight. Soon enough, with the machines they have brought and constructed as well as the research they conducted, they became the Nearly Enlightened.

    Pale as moonlight and reflecting even the faintest of glows, the Nearly Enlightened were now able to withstand their home's weather, did not need sustenance and were now able to think with greater accuracy borne from their new lack of emotions and attachments to each other. That lack of care in anything turned out to be a problem however, and they soon added some DNA of the last remaining social animals alive, the wolves, into their own genetic makeup in an effort to put some feeling and hopefully some drives into their existence. The change worked somewhat, though they were loyal to only those stronger than they were and had no mercy. They were now the Enlightened.

    A strange and frightening side effect of those new beings' new nature were a strong need for bloodshed as well as a complete lack of reason nor self-control when plunged in total darkness, the lupine part of themselves combined to the plants and moon dust woven into their flesh turning them into feral monsters of fur, fangs, claws and vine-woven stone. Without light, they became Garous.

    Wary of this strange new development but secure in the fact that a return to even the faintest of glow would turn them back into their reasonable selves, the Enlightened proceeded to construct a heavily illuminated megalopolis stretching from deep underground to the feet of the heaven, their new society favouring the strong and the ruthless and casting out the week and those that had even a speck of compassion for their fellow.

    Those cast out and some few who preferred to revel in their primal nature were thus condemned to live the rest of their lives as Garous, rarely having the chance to find light to come back to their senses. Thus was the life of the unwanted.
    So, would any of you be willing to help me with this monster?

    I desperately need a name for my not-yet-born RP and some world building idea right now.

    I love it so far, man. What do ya need? I mean, other than the proposed.
    Who am I? Oh, don't worry. I'm just the Entity of Greed. No, no, I don't want anything from you. I just want to help, in any and every way I can. No strings attached. Of course, you will owe me a favor. A big one, by the looks of this mess, but hey! What are friends for?

    Anything you can think of, really, it's in it's planing stage. But maybe some sort of further crisis to get the plot going would be nice.

    So one huge lighted metropolis that can be seen for miles. There should be a third group. Those who live within the light and shadow of the city, which keeps ten aware, but only of the dangers or whatever.

    Like those who were cast out but try to keep close to the city? Yeah, that could work.
