Post-Apocalyptic

Survival in New Vance

Pollution

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 Syndicate's dominance over the Black Market's financial flow is absolute. They are the primary arbiters of Cred and Solar Credit, their influence stretching beyond mere trading. They manipulate the fluctuating values of these currencies, exploiting the city's desperation for profit. They maintain a vast network of hidden vaults and secure drop points, ensuring a constant flow of resources, even during the most volatile periods. They have also been known to forge Solar Credits, and even create counterfeit Cred-Bits, further solidifying their control over the city's economy. Their ability to control the flow of currency, gives them immense power over the entire city. They also have a network of runners, and traders, that move currency, and goods, throughout the city.
