Welcome

    The Draft is set in a futuristic, dystopian setting where the government, known as The Trust, controls all aspects of every day life. They decide what kind of job you have, tell you where you are going to live and what color car you are going to drive, and most of all, who you are going to marry.

    Heavily influenced by Christian theology, The Trust has outlawed any and everything that they felt was destructive towards marriages, including love. Marriage is based on a careful system of matching that uses formulas to pair personalities together and of course, taking into account what the man finds most attractive.

    It's 2186 and this has become a normal part of life for the citizens of America, considering that The Trust has been in power for over a hundred years now. But every dystopian society has a resistance against the controlling figures and the question is, do you fight it or favor it? But no matter what, you cannot fight The Draft.

    This board is RATED R. There is the possibility of strong language, drugs, violence, and scenes of a sexual nature.

Weather

    For the most part, this board works in real-time with the option to move ahead by a couple of months, as long as you keep in the current season.

    Game time is currently December - February.

    Expect cold weather, snow, and biting wind once winter really kicks off.
