Welcome to Gaia! ::

So I've been gone for a while and yesterday I had a random flash of creativity. I remembered doing a prison escape roleplay a couple years ago, but it never went very far unfortunately. So I thought in might be interesting to try and start one up again following a pretty similar set up.

Anyways, prison escapes are a pretty standard concept, however this escape takes place on a recently formed volcanic island (it's not exactly a volcano, but an island formed by a volcano) in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Scientists were originally debating whether to study the island or not, but years of war pushed the island more to obscurity. Once the wars concluded however, a great deal of crime was still left over, and the need for a prison that could achieve a level of security above what any other had achieved before. So it was decided that the island would host a maximum security prison, primarily under international control. However, because of this it means that the topic of the death penalty has been heavily under debate. Since it is primarily under the control of the International Court of Justice, the death penalty is not an acceptable punishment, meaning that most of the criminals sent here will not face execution.

One would think that regardless, a prison like this would be inescapable. However, one of it's flaws has been that many weapons, armor, and other items owned by prisoners have been kept in the prison with them after they have been in court, the reason being that it's become difficult for police departments to continue storing the growing amounts of items used or owned by perpetrators. This doesn't mean the items and weapons are easy to access though, as they are all kept within a massive vault attached to the prison's armory.

There are four levels of security at the prison; Low, Medium, High, and Solitary Confinement. In the Low security area (reserved for thieves, drug dealers, etc.) there is their own section of living quarters and a cafeteria, but it is also directly connected to the main prison cafeteria. The Medium level section (reserved for violent offenders, repeat thieves, drug producers, hackers, etc.) also has it's own living quarters and direct access to the main prison gym and recreational areas. The High Security Area (reserved for murderers, rapists, very violent offenders, and other persons who are considered highly dangerous) has a living quarters as well, and direct access to the prison armory (which is heavily guarded). And finally, the Solitary Confinement area. This place is reserved for the absolute worst of the worst, the most dangerous, most psychotic individuals you can name. Terrorists, mass murderers and rapists, war criminals, and other scum bags are kept here, partly to keep other prisoners from killing them, but mostly to keep them from killing anyone else. This section has direct access to the prison's computer and tech section, which has a moderate amount of protection (it's not viewed as importantly as the armory).

So there you have it, the prison. It has other amenities as well, the warden's office, barracks for the guards, watch towers, boat docks, and a few helicopter pads. This place is heavily guarded and virtually impossible to get out of, but the world is about to be shown that it's trust was misplaced. There is no longer any doubt that the people in this prison have had enough, no the real question is, who'll survive long enough to get out?

I'm thinking of turning this into a full fledged roleplay, IF people are interested. It will involve gangs as well I should mention, both real life and fictional, so think about who you want to throw your hat in with. Any ideas you have to tell me would be greatly appreciated, just throw things at me and I'll let you know what I think. If enough people are interested, then we'll go ahead with it.

Thanks for your time everyone, and if you do join, then good luck escaping. You'll need it.

Kay, so for anyone who is actually interested, here is a character skeleton, hoping some people actually are interested in this. sweatdrop

Well me personally since we're using actual gangs I'd like to state a fact you probably don't know about me. I'm from Westside Five-Deuce Hoover Gangster Crip, I've got it tattooed on my bacc. In jail Hoover's are always deep. Anyways you're forgetting tHe mid west gangs.

Bump. Still looking for more roleplayers if anyone is interested. I'll try and get my own characters up at some point soon, but I'll be a little while yet with that.

Bump! Still need more people unfortunately. xp
