Post-Apocalyptic
The Algonquian Wasteland in 2297 is a fragmented, harsh, and deeply isolated land. The grand ambitions of previous decades have crumbled, replaced by a desperate struggle for local survival. The shadows of the Old World loom large, not as a source of knowledge, but as a collection of dangerous ruins, misinterpreted legends, and the root of the land's enduring contamination. This is a setting ripe for tales of survival, exploration, and the difficult choices made when the wasteland calls.

appearance
An elderly man with deeply tanned and wrinkled skin from decades spent on the lake. He has a long, stringy grey beard and wears patched oilskins along with a wide-brimmed hat. His hands are calloused from years of fishing, and he often smells of fish and lake water.
personality
Cantankerous and superstitious, Old Man Hemlock is a wealth of knowledge about Lake Simcoe's currents and dangers. He enjoys spinning tall tales about lake monsters and is distrustful of technology, preferring practical skills over fancy gadgets.
backstory
Once a proud fisherman who spent his youth exploring the depths of Lake Simcoe, Old Man Hemlock has witnessed the lake's transformation over the decades. The mutations of its marine life and the encroaching dangers of the wasteland have made him a reluctant guardian of its secrets. He now spends his days at the docks, sharing his knowledge with anyone willing to listen, while also keeping a wary eye on the waters that have both fed and haunted him.
