In 1899, modernity clashes with the fading Wild West. Industry and law meet untamed lands influenced by deep-seated sexism and racism. Towns evolve, yet dangers and old superstitions persist. Progress contrasts with folklore. Diverse landscapes reflect social inequalities and contested resources. Industrial growth offers opportunity but also exploitation, straining a prejudiced society. Life is harsh; the beautiful land demands resilience, often tested by societal biases and ingrained beliefs.

Hennigan's Stead is a vast prairie region in eastern New Austin, featuring rolling grassy hills, rocky outcrops, and the winding canyon of Pike's Basin. It serves as a transitional zone between desert and plains, anchored by MacFarlane's Ranch, a bastion of civilization and lawfulness in a wild territory. Danger Rating: 4/10 The open plains host coyotes and occasional wolves, along with venomous rattlesnakes. They lack shelter, exposing inhabitants to elements like harsh sun and sudden storms, making navigation through Pike's Basin challenging. Additionally, outlaws and cattle rustlers, such as the Bollard Twins Gang, use these remote areas as hideouts, threatening ranchers and travelers. Native Plants: - Wild Feverfew (Common) - Desert Sage (Common) - Violet Snowdrop (Uncommon) Wildlife: - Land: Coyote, Pronghorn, Armadillo, Wild Horse, Rabbit, Gray Wolf
The landscape is dominated by dry grass and dirt plains with weathered rock formations and scattered scrub brush. Pike's Basin canyon cuts dramatically through the land, while MacFarlane's Ranch stands as a well-maintained wooden outpost with corrals and a windmill under a wide, open sky.
