Phoenix City

Phoenix City is a community of survivors (descendants thereof, at this point, a few generations onwards), following a global apocalyptic event. They live in the ruins of what was once a huge metropolis, having now named the city in honor of the great mythical bird reborn from the ashes of what once was. Life here is organized around the Four Castes, which together make up this post-apocalyptic society. The Castes use different kinds of metal to identify themselves. The Gold Caste, those blessed with charisma and wisdom, are the leaders in the community, they make up the High Council and determine the rules everyone lives by. The Silver Caste are those of high intelligence and technical skills, the scholars and scientists, who work in their labs and shops, seeking to recover the knowledge and technology lost in the apocalypse, and even to invent/develop own new things. The Steel Caste are the warriors, those of exceptional courage, mental and physical strength; they defend Phoenix City from external threats, as well as ensure order and security within, enforcing the rules set out by the Gold Caste. Finally, the Bronze Caste, those gifted with patience and aptitude for hard physical labor, are the farmers, who grow the food to provide for everybody in the city. Everyone is generally expected to fit in within one of those Four Castes, and basically your whole life revolves around what Caste you are either born into or switch into either by marriage or other ways (which happens rarely, but does happen, nonetheless). Those who do NOT fit into this order are literally referred to as "Outcasts" and are often forced into exile from the City, kicked out into the lawless wastelands stretching outside, most - never to return. Weave your own story here. P.S. This is partly inspired by the Divergent books and movies that I quite enjoyed, years ago. But is not entirely based on that franchise.
