Here's how things are gonna work...
Premise
The series is set in Fegensula, a 1st world fictional country that has a culture which is an amalgamation of the 1600s, today, and everything in between. Fegensulan residents rely heavily on repaired and second-hand technology as imports are scarce- Fegensulan officials want to preserve the rural culture of the nation. While English is the main language, it has its own Fegensulan slang. The series takes place at different points in time between the 1021-2021, but mainly focuses on the lives of eight main characters between 2018-2021. They live at 27 Chapman Road, Aweriton, which is where most of the stories take place.
Each volunteer will be assigned at least one character, but feel free to continue the story for others.
Main Characters
Stuart ‘Stu’ Gillman-Street (born May 20, 1995) (RPed by Stuart Gillman-Street)
Stu has much intelligence in his blue-haired head, though he doesn’t always put it to good use. He likes to joke around- which he does frequently- yet still knows when to be serious and knows how to cheer someone up. Doesn’t stop him from being a snarky so-and-so, though.
Christine ‘Tina’ McDouglass (born June 21, 1995)
Stu’s girlfriend, Tina is a strong independent woman who don’t need no man. Except, she has one, but Stu and Tina see each as both friends and partners. Tina jokes around just like Stu, but is a bit more mature. A bit.
Stanley 'Stan' Arinson (born November 19, 1994)
Stan's lack of book smarts are more than made up for in his street smarts. He is much snarkier than Stu, and while he has a huge problem with authority, he can be grounded when he needs/wants to.
Lennon ‘Len’ Nesmith (born July 14, 1995)
A transgender homosexual male, and Stu’s good friend, Len is kind and endearing, yet by no means naïve or unintelligent. Still, he rarely seems to struggle with making time for himself and is not above poking fun at his friends from time to time.
Julius Adrian 'Jules’ Randall (born January 20, 1995)
Jules is slick, charming and smooth; always respectful and easy-going, yet hides a mound of insecurity suppressed by daily sessions of meditation usually shared by Sage.
Paige Caulfield (born May 31, 1995)
Paige is the embodiment of liberalism in one Jamaican-Fegensulan package. To her friends, she is as sweet as honey, but get on her bad side and she will tear you apart like a paper shredder.
Braddlye Eicchi 'Sage’ Sage (born 13th October, 1492)
Sage is a vampire with a deep American accent, but is unlikely to 'vant to suck your blahd!’. He is commonly deadpan yet eloquent and has quite a literary tongue, and oftentimes finds himself equally bewildered by and condescending of his friends’ antics. Still, he always tries to do what he thinks is right.
Amadeus (born(?) ~200,000 BCE)
After nearly dying, Stu’s life was spared by rogue ex-Angel Of Death Deus in exchange for a room in his house. Deus is a wild card, hyperactive and borderline psychotic. Never get on his bad side. Ever.
Minor characters
Terry (born November 25, 2017) (RPed by Jade Harley)
Stu and Tina’s pet Yorkshire Terrier. The most important character of all.
Dr Walter Street (born October 21, 1953)
Stuart’s father- a scientist always creating failing or useless contraptions. That is except for CLID, a robot he hides so nobody attempts to steal it.
CLID (created September 18, 2013- November 3, 2019)
The walking (or, rather, wheeling), talking robot created by Prof. Walter Street. And when I say talk, I mean, barely- his text-to-speech unit is constantly dusty, causing him to speak in malapropisms.
Cèvelion 'Cèv' du Péde (born June 19, 1995)
Cèv is an aspiring actor from France who has little street smarts, but is by no means a pushover.
Christopher 'Chris' Shoaver (born August 30, 2005)
Now here's a shrimp with little smarts in anything. Chris, who currently is working a part-time job at Schwecter's Bar and Restaurant, is naïve, weak, spotty, and only knows what he learnt at school. I guess he tries his best.
Satan (born(?) ~200,000 BCE)
A front runner of The Human Post-Death Judicial System, Satan is the Head of the Lower World. He's a little sadistic, but fairly nice.
HUW (born(?) ~200,000 BCE)
HUW (which stands of the Head of the Upper World) is essentially God, and a frontrunner of The Human Post-Death Judicial System. He is at peace with all, albeit a little boring

Life After Death
When you die, you go to The Middle World (Purgatory) where you are walked to The Waiting Room (like the Pearly Gates) by an Angel of Death. There you will wither go to The Upper World (heaven), The Lower World (hell), or left in The Waiting Room based on obvious factors. This system is known as The Human Post-Death Judicial System, the leaders of which are The Head of The Upper World (essentially God; known as HUW (pronounced Hugh)) and The Head of The Lower World (essentially Satan, and known as such). HUW's accomplices are the Angels, and Satan's are the Demons (do not confuse HUW with God, he has no power over living humans). If an Angel of Death, Angel, Demon, HUW, or Satan decide to visit Earth, their powers are limited (Angels and Angels of Death are banished from their job for rogue behaviour, as was Amadeus).
