126 ◙ totally worth not sleeping for
I SWEAR I'M GOING TO BED RIGHT AFTER THIS. But srsly I'm so proud of my self 8')b I did this all in one night. I still have a couple sets of graphics to do and the FAQ to finish up when I'm NOT completely dead amongst some other small things, but for the most part I think it'll be ready to open within the week. I'll pimp it later today, but uh. I'M REALLY PROUD OF MYSELF RIGHT NOW ALS;KDJF OKAY GOING TO BED BEFORE SOMEONE ON MY FLIST MURDERS ME ♥
The streets of the inner-city slums of Babylon hum with a tense energy that none can see but all can feel; it is curiously quiet. There have been no shootings for a week. The empty bullet casings littering the street curbs are days old. Yes indeed; all is quiet and all is calm-at least, for the moment.
Downtown, it’s a different story; alive with lights and sounds, beautiful people stroll down alabaster city blocks in their glitz and glamour. Everyone is wrapped up in the energy that fills the air-downtown Babylon is the center of the universe. Rock and roll hasn’t been invented yet, but drugs and sex are all the rage.
This is the world of Babylon Noir, a pan-fandom roleplay set in an alternate universe. Its name comes from two sources- biblical accounts tell of the city of Babel, a place that “united humanity,” where everyone spoke the same language. Babylon is the Greek equivalent of Babel (and sounds better than Babel Noir 8Db) and like the city, in the center lies the great Babylon Tower, the highest skyscraper in the world. The second part, Noir, translates into “black” in French and was named thus as a throwback to the subgenre “film noir,” classy and slick Hollywood crime dramas usually shot in high-contrast, low-key black-and-white. Likewise, the inhabitants of downtown Babylon are stylish and beautiful, but the city’s crime rates are high due to corruption in the police forces and the nitty-gritty lifestyle of the slums.

PS. I'll probably be doing some recruitments for another mod later when there are more applications being sent in, but for now I'm okay by myself. Does anyone want to be considered when the time comes? I'm only looking for one other person, so this is just a preliminary check to see who would be interested.
