Game Background:
Anomaly
Welcome to the world of Anomaly, a post-apocalyptic landscape set in the near future that mixes the genres from various different ages and settings together.
The landscape is set with ruins of once great cities, and strange misplaced terrain, along with the ley lines and other anomalies that have torn our world apart.
History of Anomaly
By the year 2175, Civilization had advanced to a new golden age of peace, science, wisdom and achievement. There was little to no war any more, most diseases were subjects for history books, and technology had advanced at an unparalleled pace. But by the Solstice of that year, the world would be changed forever.
The beginnings of what has become known as the Event started far from Earth. Systems had registered a truly massive solar coronal mass ejection, a gigantic geomagnetic storm reaching out into the Solar system. Earth prepared the best it could for the oncoming Carrington Event, but there was little time. The geomagnetic storm not only wreaked havoc on almost all electronics on Earth, but also caused a complete pole reversal. Some countries were better prepared than others, having the foresight to upgrade and harden their power grids and other vital infrastructures. But others did not, and still others were just overpowered and failed anyway.
The massive geomagnetic storm energized the air. The auroras (borealis and australis) lit up the skies all around the earth, extending to the equator, and are still actively seen to this day. The strange auroras knocked out all satellites and ships in Earth’s orbit.
Along with the geomagnetic storm, there were massive earthquakes and tsunami pounded all the coast lines for days, and water level rose to extraordinary level. Entire cities disappeared under the waves. Millions, if not billions, of people died.
Energy filled the Ley Lines around the planet, something that was once invisible and only a select few could "sense" was now visible to everyone.
The pure power that surged through the ley lines tore at the very fabric and space and time creating various dimensional anomalies across the planet. In many areas, things seem just as normal as they had prior to the Event. Yet in other areas, entire regions had been replaced by something from another place. These anomalies also created holes in the fabric of reality, passages that might lead somewhere else on Earth or another time, or another planet or another dimension completely.
Then the disease and fighting started. The have-nots demanding help from the haves at gunpoint. Old and new diseases started to spread across the land. That is not to mention the roving bands of creatures that are out there also preying on the weak.
The United Northern American government (Formerly the United States, Canada, and Mexico) activated the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to manage the situation. FEMA started to set up refugee camps and gather supplies and resources to help survivors.
This is where the game begins, a few weeks to a few years after the apocalypse, based out of one of these FEMA camps.
This sounds really interesting. I love post apocalyptic/dystopian futures. I'm in the eastern timezone as well and would be very interested if a group hasn't been chosen yet. First started playing back in the 80s and found my way back to DnD a few years ago. My discord is Coffee Goblin#6410

I am on the East Coast, so 5pm PST would be 8pm EST, which might have you joining in kinda of late in the session.
Discord ( ~|Johnny||Hatchet|~#5293 ) should see a request from. I am interested and might be able to bring one other person with me.
Little are the sand-grains, little the wits, little the minds of (some) men; for all men are not wise alike: men are everywhere by halves.

Hi. that sounds like a really cool premise. I'm also EST and my discord is Magpye#6388.
Great, I will invite you in Discord and then invite you to the server for Anomaly.
Hello! I’d love to join your game if you still have an open spot. My discord is Becca152#3208. Hope to hear from you!
Sorry, I just saw this. I've sent a friend request. I'll understand if you've filled the spots already.
I think we will be cutting this off for now. Thanks for all the interest in the game folks!
