Post-Apocalyptic
In 2070, a zombie virus threatens mankind. A futuristic, dystopian, cyberpunk test of survival!
Author's Note: The year is 2070, one year after the Collapse. The place? New Vance City. Skeletal remains of skyscrapers pierce the smog-choked sky. Patches of overgrown desert flora claw at cracked asphalt. Inside, survivors try to make the best of their fragile existence, repurposing solar panels and scavenging for supplies. Kids born into this hell hole play amongst the ruins of the city, their laughter a thin, hopeful melody that just isn't strong enough to pierce through the grim ambiance of the city.
Life here is filled with nothing but scarcity and fear. Every creak in the night, every flicker in the solar grid, every hum or buzz... It's all enough to send shivers down your spines. Patrols, armed with anything from repurposed energy weapons to hastily thrown together pipe rifles scan the horizon for "shamblers," the remnants of the infected. Yet amidst the hardship, the community is still blooming. New Vance City still stands, at least for now. A flickering candle in the encroaching darkness of a world forever changed.

Description
The Gear Rats live by a strict, unspoken code, known as the "Ironclad Creed." This code emphasizes loyalty, strength, and ruthless efficiency. It dictates that every member must prioritize the gang's survival above all else, and that any act of betrayal or weakness will be met with swift and brutal punishment. The Creed also mandates that all scavenged materials must be shared with the gang, and that any attempt to hoard resources will be dealt with harshly. The Ironclad Creed is enforced by Cog, who acts as both judge and executioner. The Creed is a way to maintain order in the Rust Belt, and to ensure the survival of the Gear Rats. It is a way of life, and it is what makes the Gear Rats a force to be reckoned with.
