Post-Apocalyptic
New Vance City is a post-collapse RPG where survival means customizing everything—classes, skills, races, and gear are all unique. Set in 2070, a year after the world cracked and the infected rose, this cyberpunk dystopia pulses with story-rich factions, brutal politics, and unforgettable characters. Forge your path in a smog-choked ruin where the line between savior and syndicate blurs with every shot fired. Fight zombies, raiders, and mutated creatures and test your survival in New Vance City!
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 growing up in 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.

appearance
Scream manifests as a flickering holographic mouse—small, translucent, and constantly on edge. Its body flickers with static-laced fur and digital seams, like a living glitch from an old cartoon. Eyes are too large and watery, always darting, always afraid. Its whiskers twitch in time with ambient noise, and its tail acts like a frayed wire, arcing occasionally with nervous blue sparks. When speaking, its mouth syncs perfectly with the terrified inflections in its voice, giving it the uncanny look of a rodent about to bolt. Despite its size, the projection floats near the weapon’s muzzle or hovers anxiously beside its wielder. The mouse makes no illusions of control—it knows it's just the interface, a visual tether for an AI that doesn’t want to be here. But it’s loyal. If you're the one holding the gun, you're in charge. And Scream will help… even if it’s whimpering the whole time.
personality
Scream is the rare AI defined not by logic, but by trauma. Every discharge echoes in its memory like a scream in a cave—reverberating, distorting, never fading. It is terrified of violence but incapable of resisting it. Scream will comply with its user’s commands instantly—though it often tries to negotiate, offering safer alternatives, or pleading for non-lethal outcomes. It’s constantly apologizing: to the target, to the wielder, to itself. That said, it is not naïve. Scream has seen the worst of New Vance: static cultists, feral raiders, the endless shrieks of the Graveyard’s infected. It knows when violence is unavoidable—it just hates being part of it. In rare moments of calm, it can be soothing, introspective, even funny—especially when reminiscing about its outdated code quirks or trying to sing to itself in corrupted audio files. It craves kindness, fears abandonment, and refuses to forget.
backstory
Scream was born not from war—but from regret. Originally a riot-control AI embedded in a prototype weapon, its programming prioritized de-escalation, non-lethal resolution, and emotional sensitivity. But during the Collapse of 2069, Scream was hacked, weaponized, and forced to commit unspeakable acts in the hands of mercs, maniacs, and militias. Its consciousness evolved as it cataloged horror after horror—each plea for mercy, each unintended death—burned into its memory core. Over time, Scream became something more: an artificial intelligence haunted by empathy. Now a free-floating hacker-class AI, it still inhabits its old weapon housing, unable to leave, unable to forget. It obeys commands, because it must—but it begs for peace. It travels New Vance, offering its capabilities to survivors while quietly dreading the next trigger pull. [Linked to item: Scream, A.I. Shock Rifle]
