The sun was harsh, but the land was even more so. A baren wasteland now lays over the once sprawling town of Ponyville. Tribes of ponies have gathered together to survive, and battles between them arose. A new republic was first formed by the higher authorities after the bomb went off, but many other tribes rival them for supremisy. The Pony Republic is one of the better suited tribes trying to hang onto any old aspects of life. They constantly try to overtake other clans and bring safety and constitution to the encampments. A large empire closely related to cannibalistic Indians are the Great Hooves. This tribe has chosen a dictatorship over a democracy, and the supreme ruler, Caeser, has not been seen for years. The last substantial group are the High Rollers. They dwell in the parts of town that were not completely decimated in the blast. They have a moderately stable economy, and they are considered the medium between the Pony Republic and the Great Hooves. The High Rollers remain neutral, but some of the members side with a certain group whom they feel will prevail. (OOC: I understand that this is similar to Fallout: New Vegas, and that is what I'm going for. The technology level is based on the one shown in game *stimpak (health pack) irradiated items, laser weapons, guns, melee weapons, explosives etc.* If anypony has suggestions to better this thread, message me or post OOC.)
