I've answered a number of post-apocalyptic prompts but haven't really gotten what I was looking for. I posted this on DPP Tinkering and got some good feedback.

This is long, no doubt. The idea is facilitate a lot of interesting world-building in a post-apocalyptic North American setting. I wanted to give a lot of options because I can see a lot of fun scenarios with the same basic framework and kinks. Given my style and interests this would probably belong in r/DirtyStoryWriting more than DPP. I realize I'd probably have to narrow down the options I put on the table for an actual posting, but I'm curious what someone might do with the concept and don't want to limit a potential partner.

One commenter previously said that this doesn't necessarily make sense. There is no reason to believe that humanity would be knocked back centuries of progress. That may be the case, but that's not the world I'm interested in (also I disagree ;) ).

It has been a long time since the Cataclysm. The world of our forefathers is long gone. Their technology seems more like myth and magic. Their tools and machines are sometimes recovered as relics, but most do not function. Their achievements are still obvious. The ruins of their cities stand as mute testament to them, but exist only as a source of salvage, homes to bandits and dens for wildlife.

In the long years since the Cataclysm communities have dragged themselves out of darkness to eke out a living, and even prosper. Some on the fringes scrounge and fight for survival but humanity has had time to rebuild. City-states, towns, and petty kingdoms have risen from the ashes.

The world has changed a lot. Daily life has more akin to the medieval or modern period than the twenty-first century. For many life is harsh, brutal and short, but humanity does its best to survive and rebuild. It is a strange world now. Religions, cults, and new beliefs fight for the hearts of men and women. Being forced through the Cataclysm has caused survivors and descendants to put their faith in new and old things. Life is hard. People struggle and fight to extract food from the land. Beasts and bandits prowl the wilds. Human life is fragile with disease, violence and nature threatening. The ruination of man and harsh life means human labour is valuable and various forms of slavery exists. Society has adapted and revived old customs and initiated new ones to adjust to the new reality.

But goodness still exists. There is still laughter and joy and love. People come together in community, marry, have children and can live good lives.

And it is in this world our story takes place.

I wrote this prompt to explore the post-post-apocalypse. I think it offers tremendous opportunities for world-building and creativity. I'm not very interested in the scramble after whatever happened, but the ideas of what people might have done centuries after and about why it may have happened.

As for setting I have a number of ideas:

A small commune with a strange religion. They are a fertility cult and reproduction is at the heart of their beliefs. They view it as their holy duty mission to repopulate the world. Honour the Sacred Mother and save the world.

In the court of a king. The centre of wealth and power of a kingdom on this ruined continent. Courtly intrigue, politics and strange problems may confront the kingdom. An ambitious couple may navigate the politics, another may have to work through their arranged marriage, a guard and a noble lady or princess enjoy an illicit affair. Power is exercised at many levels. Perhaps the head of a community, a halls of power of a city, the chieftain of a group is where the story is told.

The city has been rebuilt, but resembles a medieval trading port more than what stood there before. The rough and ready, hustle and bustle of the town attracts many ambitious men and women. In the busy streets of this town people encounter each other every day. Young strangers meet each other in the market, families arrange marriages, a poor orphan knocks on a merchant's door seeking aid, people gamble to rise from rags to riches, affairs between servant and master takes place behind closed doors.

On the edge of the wilds, lands mankind has abandoned to be reclaimed by nature and go to ruin are being retaken. Communes and homesteaders settle the frontier. Brave men and women push to the edge for new opportunities. A collection of families found a new village united in their beliefs, a polygamist homesteader brings a bride to begin his family, a young couple venture forth to forge a new life.

In a world ruined and rebuilt after the Cataclysm there are many stories to be told.

The cause of the Cataclysm is open for discussion. I am not particularly interested in supernatural calamities, ex. zombies. If you wanted to keep the cause mysterious that's also an option. Some ideas include: comet/asteroid impact, pandemic, environmental/climatic disaster, conventional/nuclear war, social/economic collapse, astronomical/solar activity, technological disaster.

I'm looking for something more realistic (perhaps light fantasy) with lots of creative world-building and strong characters. Creativity and collaboration is what I'm seeking, as well as someone who shares some of my kinks.
