Welcome to Gaia! ::

This is based off of the world created by the band The Protomen. If you want a real full understanding, check out their songs.
The back story
Many years ago two men built robots to help make the struggles of mankind easier. To help with the labors they endured in the mines and factories. The Good Doctor intended just that, for man and machine to survive side by side. The other man had other plans, he believed the people owed thme both everything for building all these robots. So he hatched a plan, he framed the Good Doctor for a murder, he used his secret robot assassin and the police arrived at the scene only to find the dead woman and the Good Doctor. The second part of this man's plan was to bind the working hand of mankind. Everything was rebuilt for them, made better, the homeless and criminal elements were systematically removed. Factories were automatized, and the mines worked by the robots. Everyone was paid for their servances as the robots replaced them. It seemed like heaven. As years passed children grew up not knowing of the old world, because to the older generations this world seemed so much better, and rumors began to speak of a demon who would make you disappear in your sleep if you had an ill-word to speak against the machines, so they were raised to stay close to their mothers while outside,always smile and never speak ill of the machines. After all, this world was a gift given by the man controlling the machines and he could just as easily take it all away again couldn't he? So the machines kept everyone safe, kept them silent.

Clarifications:
1.)This is set in semi-modern times, but the "resistance" have limited weaponry. Mostly Combat knives and maybe some pistols but they would use them sparringly.
2.) The robots are searching for the "resitance" without telling the public of them either as they want to keep the people feeling safe, keep control, etc.
3.) The robots aren't super advanced, they can be killed by sliting their throats. But they are still robots so it's going to hurt if they hit you, like alot.
4.) You don't have to play a memeber of the resitance you could play an antagonist who sees the man in the tower has given them as a gift and these terrorists could take it away frome everyone. You can also switch "sides"
5.) You have no idea what the sun looks like. As the city towers so high a "shadow blocks out the sun.."
6.) The Good Doctor lives in exile on the outskirts of the city, hardly interacting but does want revenge on the Man in the Tower.
7.) The Man in the Tower rarely leaves, but sees all that his robots do. But he must always maintain order in the city. Never make the people fear the robots can't protect them.

Rules:
1.) Obey Gaia ToS
2.)Be literate
3.) No godmodding
4.)Romance is encouraged but let's not make it the focus, we don't have time to stay in one place for too long
5.)There are different titles to PM depending on the role you wish to play:
The Good Doctor-"The Father of Death"
The Man in the Tower-"The Hounds"
A Resitance Member-"Breaking Out"
A Robot supporter-" "Keep Quiet"
6.) Lets have fun.

He stood watching 'his' city as the robots patrolled. He was so high up you would think he couldn't see but, before he had banished his best friend, Azenal had created a program with him that would let him zoom in to the city. He looked around and didn't see anything out of the ordinary yet... Yet..
