You live in the underground megacity of Nu-America. Nu-America is a giant underground cavern directly below where North America was, with 2 major districts - the USA district and Canada district. The district boundaries themselves don't much meaning, as racial segregation down there is virtually nonexistent and people are free to visit the other district at any time. While there isn't a district for mixed ethnic groups, it doesn't matter since they're free to live in any of the districts.
Electricity is generated through thermoelectric generators. The resultant smoke is funneled through pipes under homes to provide heating. All waste is reused in some way or another, and unusable garbage is thrown away in personal garbage dumps under each home.
Food is comprised mostly of corn, which was the only crop which they had the seeds for in the beginning. Some other crops were recovered from the surface by daring scavengers, who were sent out weekly until the governors deemed the health risk to be too great and forbade all outside expeditions.
The governing system is the same as a normal city, except with a few laws being modified to match the underground setting.
For resources, Nu-America is pretty well off. As the main job is mining, they have a stockpile of steel and other metals. While water may sound like it'd be hard to find, Nu-America uses filtered underground deposits and filtered water from overground rivers.

1. No, you may not start out as the mayor or some other celebrity.
2. I'd appreciate it if you had decent grammar at the very least. I don't mind one-liners as long as they do something to push the plot forward.
3. The password is your favorite gemstone.
4. Please make sure your character is not underage, as it'd be pretty unrealistic for a bunch of kids to somehow sneak out of a giant city and then manage to survive in a world that was bombarded with solar radiation. Also, I'd appreciate it if your character was younger than 35 years old, since a person who witnessed the incident with their own eyes would probably be watched at all times.
5. No killing other users' characters. It's plain rude.
6. If you see someone spam, then just report the post, don't talk about it in the RP.

Username: Your PH username.
Character name: Your character's name, of course.
Age: Your character's age.
Appearance: No pictures allowed. Please try to give a detailed description, and not something like "Black pants, black hair and black shirt, around as tall as a Sudowoodo".
Personality: I'd prefer if you didn't make your character the standard emo character that's depressed and won't talk to anyone else.
Password: If you don't know this, then you've probably missed something.
*No backstory is required, as you're all people who were born underground after the solar storm.
**No, you're not allowed to control multiple characters. Quality over quantity.


And here's an example of a correct form (mine)
Username: ~Hatoko~
Character name: Lena Mavis
Age: 22
Appearance: Lena wears blue jeans with a checkered flannel shirt with a left breast pocket. She is 175cm tall (or 5'9"), has dark brown eyes and shoulder-length straight black hair. Her shoes are standard black sneakers with white laces. She is neither stocky nor thin- just about average. She wears square brown glasses, although she can still see fine without them.
Personality: Lena is outgoing, but not very athletic. She's the type of person that tries to befriend most people that she meets, but rarely succeeds. She prefers gaming over exercise, and likes to make everyone laugh, even at her own expense.
