Short version, TLDR: In the future, the rich discover how to make themselves flawless beautiful vampires and those below them become nothing more than livestock, tended to by strange humanoids that now function as labour in every aspect. However, a resistance among the humans threatens to rise and secrets that have long been buried will be dug up

Long version, for all the people who like incoherent rambling: In the future, through the power of technology, the rich discover how to make themselves better than flawless, better than perfect but it comes at an essential sacrifice of their humanity. They all do it immediately of course without consideration of the rest of humanity; they all become vampires. Cyborgs with hidden syringes in their oh-so-beautiful faces. I imagine most look like this but the machinery lines are a little less obvious:

Humans are kept as livestock in large cramped farms and on rare occasions, pets. What 'pet' means depends on the person honestly(nothing NSFW), it could be anything from a partner you treat as lesser to full on dehumanisation and you treat this person like a dog. The resistance will go around burning farms and recruiting humans for a good bit of the rp.

Smilies are synthetic humanoids created by vampires to be more efficient workers and keepers of humans. They didn't want to make everything run by heartless cold machines so they made this cursed breed between machine, human and animal. They can't really get rid of them now because these things do work better than humans, are more charming than flat out AI and they are also just big hulking monsters than can rip in two most machines they come across. They have the brain and general appearance of humans but their internal shit is a mix between the best parts of different animals and machinery. They are very nearly immortal, being able to regenerate everything except their head and not aging past what age they were built to be. They got their name from the fact that they don't know how to do anything BUT smile when it comes to expressions(this was intended during their conception). They have a type of reverse zoochosis where being away from machinery or tech for too long causes psychosis within them, and they begin acting irrational. This is why every Smilie home has at least ONE television that is constantly on.
They can also adopt animal traits sometimes, e.g. dancing in slow circles, literally, around their crushes like hedgehogs, purring like cats, growling like dogs, being entranced by bright and shiny objects like crows, etc. Though it's considered good manners not to do this in public.
Also despite being made in factories, they can form families and bonds.
You can play as these and they can join the human resistance cos they are being treated worse human workers were when they were still a thing(Very badly)

The resistance has a HQ and a leader which either I or another person can play but if you do, please be reminded that you'll have to communicate with me a lot cos this leader has a shit ton of lore.
The vampires also have a one that rules them in a kind of way, who is the most richest and oldest of them all(100+ years old). It's not like they're a formal leader or anything, but they do have a lot of respect and have innovated a bunch of tech. Again, either I or another person can do it, but be good with communicating with me cos they also have a lot of lore.
As for how the political system works, it's all gone to vampires which have particular territories which are like countries and groups ruling over those territories. This won't be a throughly explored thing tho as we're staying in one territory for the rp.

Now for the multiple settings thing, I have to clarify, magic is a thing in this world but not in the way you're thinking. It's like exclusive to gods which do exist in this world and are not playable cos they're cosmic horror entities that are usually themed around something(Think like the Fears from the Magnus Archives if you've listened to that). One gave the vampires the ideas of how to change into vamps and how to mass produce Smilies and another was the previous god of humans before they suddenly disappeared, apparently abandoning their creations after vampires arose. The current vampires' god is themed around beauty, blood and machinery and has a lot of imagery that will borrow from christianity. The previous human god was themed around nature, imperfection and forgiveness and were more leaning towards paganism in terms of aesthetics (They had few followers around the time vamps appeared) The human resistance leader is one of the last few followers of the previous human god.

The rp will take place in and around the biggest city in the world where the leader vamp lives. Major locations will be the resistance HQ, the tallest skyscraper where the leader vamp lives and the major human farm nearby (I promise I didn't come up with this idea just now, it's been in my head for years, I just am that bad at names)

Other possible roles may be:
- Head Scientist Vampire (Took over after the major vamp stepped down)
- Head Priest cos we can't have freaky tech without freaky religion
- Assistant leader for the resistance

All Lgbt ppl welcome and be like 15+ if you do wanna join

Reply or comment if you're interested and please suggest names, I need it. And maybe minor things to add or remove from lore. Also any questions are welcome if ppl have them

Any potential for a Blade style vamp hunter? Also IC is usually meant for when we start posting in character and mods may want you to fix that

Oh my God that sounds so cool, there would definitely be room for that, but
since the vampirism is cybernetic and not organic, this hunter would likely just be vamp instead of half-half
Also what do I change it to then?

Just interest check- and I wasn't thinking of half vampire- meant the van helsing human hunter

So idea

Vanessa Hell-Sing
Backstory: Vanessa is an infamous vampire hunter, known for assassinating Vampire Lords- appearing at the stroke of midnight before springing from the shadows, quickly killing the target before setting their homes ablaze and disappearing into the night. Vanessa started her crusade years ago, beginning with a well known merchant in the capital. Since then, Vanessa has grown in infamy with every kill. Few know that Vanessa is a half breed, a mix between the usual cyborg vampire and a normal human, extending her age but making her look human except for her eyes. Vanessa was taken as a slave after a renegade human settlement was found, forced under a vampire merchant of some renown- her first kill after she grew up a slave under his cruelty.
Weapons: Crimson Aspen Oiled bullets and armblade. Crimson Aspen is toxic to the electronics of a vampire, mostly effective if it pierces the heart. The oil produced by the tree is also effective.

Harker
Backstory: Under the vampire lord Virgil, several captured rebels are forced into the VFC Vampire Forced Conscript, These soldiers are sent to hunt other rebels after being subjected to horrific brainwashing, torture, and long periods of solitude. Harker is one of those agents, brainwashed to be totally loyal to Virgil and his allies. He is completely human, allowing him to disguise into rebel sections- no one has seen his face, with his hundred percent success rate, everyone he has infiltrated has died.

RedField
Backstory: Redfield is a defective Simile, keeping some of her brain while also giving some enhanced strength and senses. Redfield has lot all memories of her past, only vague memories of watching westers- hence her obsession with cowboys. She has joined forces with Hell-Sing, hunting her creators in the Simile Factories.

Derek "Grimm" Quincy
Backstory: Grimm is the third member of the Vampire Slaying Trio, functioning as the medic of the team, while also tinkering with their gadgets and playing a general support role. Grimm was previously a street thief, but after his gang was hunt down and turned into livestock for the vampires, Derek turned his attention to Vampires and began sabotaging their empire, hacking communications- stealing weapon supplies. This was noticed by Redfield and Hell-Sing, who tracked him down and recruited him.

Omg, I love these ideas!! They're so unique but fit everything like so well!!
 
Hmmm none really, except for the vampire Virgil, is he going to be an actual character or just a mention?
mention- maybe side character
 
Kay kay, and another question, how exactly is Redfield defective?
the conversion went wrong- erasing memories of her past life but giving her some sentience.

Okay but most Smilies are sentient, their brain functions like that of a normal human. Smilies who like join resistances are considered disloyal not defective

hmmm, maybe it made her really hate vampires and also lost memory

Okay, that seems believable. Hating vamps a lot is rare, and losing memory is a defective trait
 
If Gnuiran Isle isn't taken that fits
 
I hope many more show up
 
I like this idea, so count me as interested. I’m assuming that we will be playing as either vampires or the resistance? If so are we allowed multiple characters? Normally I’d just play one in a roleplay, but I make an exception when there are two factions playable.

Yeah, totally, though if you do get creative and somehow manage to make an interesting neutral character that's cool too

I'm sorry but what does that mean? Are you suggesting a name for the rp or the location?

oh wrong chat- I meant to send that to a fantasy RP I'm in
 
So does Harker work
 
Alright since we have two factions playable I’ll make one character for each. For the vampires I’m thinking of a newly turned one, perhaps not totally indoctrinated to the cause. For the resistance I would play an actual human, though the details are fuzzy right now.
 
So does Harker work
Yeah, he works perfectly fine tho I might try to make a prettier more comprehensive second recruiting thread so you don't have to finalise all ideas rn
