All learning is banned from society. The Internet is totally rewritten and all books are destroyed. The only thing society has is the propaganda given to it by its oppressive ruling class. And after the last great world war, all religion was banned. This included all religious works and artifacts. But what happens if one Bible still remains? One text of the Quran? One copy of A Tale Of Two Cities? And everyone’s thoughts and dreams are constantly monitored so they can be taken and used by the wealthy privileged class to remain in power. A family’s wealth dictates how many of its own children that they can keep. The society is focused on gene manipulation and the furthering of the human species, and any people with less than desired DNA is either made infertile and sent into slavery or eradicated at birth. And personal property rights are revoked, no one truly owns anything as it can all be taken away by the government at any moment. But a saviour has arisen, or the closest one could get to such. Their name?

"Why Madame, I have no name. But, you may call me V, if you will. Why, everyone does eventually."

This RP is heavily based off of the book V For Vendetta. You don't need to have read it to do this, but I will be borrowing the basic plot from it and such, with some changes in setting and and minor changes of character(s) and plot.

Okay, getting to the point. Your character gets in a scrape with the police force of the place, and V rescues them from certain peril. They take your character to their secret hideaway, and show them a life better and more beautiful than that of the time.

Rules:
Shipping? Maybe. Depends on the direction this goes in, but I'm open to pretty much anything.
Rated: MA, mature, for gore, profanity, and other mature themes like self mutilation, rape, etc.
Grammar police is here, don't awaken the beast.
LGBTQIA+? Why, the Queer Queen™ is fully supportive of this!
Have fun!

We can use a template or just jump in, either works.

May I ask why rape is included on the list?

just asking by if it’s going to be talked about a lot in this I might not do it.

Otherwise I’d love to join, wether this is an O/O or not.

(Oh, because flawed societies, blah tragic dystopian blah, and mentions of it will be in a character's backstory. But Stark asked first, sorry, and I don't know what roles I could add otherwise I'd say yes.)

Also, I just want to add that if I happen to bring up a sensitive topic, political, social, etc, that you'd rather oof out of the discussion, let me know! I want to make sure I don't trigger anyone so the plotline and the overall story of the RP is enjoyable for everyone.

Okay, I could post a basic template so our characters could have some foundation but also allow for exploration into their personalities, motivations, and everything else. Sound okay?

I left a lot of stuff out of what I usually use for a template so we can both get to know each other's characters gradually. Sorry I took so long to post, today was kinda busy lol.

Name: Unknown. Codename V.
Age: Unknown, but fit enough to be somewhere in their twenties.
Gender: Male. Probably.
Appearance: V's face is hidden by a Guy Fawkes mask. They wear a black Nehru jacket and trousers, as well as a black cloak and sometimes a matching black Spanish hat. 6'9", well-built, with an athletic form. Not muscular, but does have muscles.
Other: Self-proclaimed anarchist. Not much is known about this mysterious character, but he does quote a lot of Shakespeare. Not that anyone would recognize it, not anymore.

"Remember, remember, the fifth of November, the gunpowder treason and plot. I know of no reason why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot."

His voice had a strength that was metered by a calmness, a deep centered peace that one could feel. And yet, something behind it made ice spread over your bones, a shiver cascade down your spine.

Strength Through Purity, Purity Through Faith. The words were plastered all over town, on posters, signs, heard over broadcasts, shouted by passing members of the Military. The Finger, they were called. But the night was a clear one, and in the dirty streets it seemed that none were going to bother with the crimes committed between peasants.

A shadow had been cast over the city, and on the roof of a skyscraper, tall and dark and gloomy, was a figure. He darted past, then seemed to have moved down to ground level, having surveyed the area. Over one of the posters; a bright red, circled V. The shadow disappeared down the alleyway, leaving his handiwork to be seen by all the next day.

And now, a young woman by the name of Lillian Grey enters. This is, in fact, to be her story, but the author would be careful that it would be easy to get distracted by the actions of our secondary protagonist. Truly, the growth and development of the angel would be vastly more important to the heinous acts perpetuated by the masked man, the monstrosity. But the author digresses, and now we shall see what becomes of this tale….

(However you want, really, but your character getting into a scrape with their police was the original idea.)
