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 2069 Collapse, an ecological and societal disaster sparked by climate change and a bio-plague, transformed Earth. Once-vibrant cities became desolate shells, choked by toxic smog and nature's aggressive growth. Fortified settlements, like many others, stand as bastions against the encroaching wasteland. "Shamblers," plague remnants, haunt the outskirts, a constant threat. Survivors, toughened by necessity, repurpose pre-Collapse tech, relying on solar power and salvaged goods. Factions battle for control of limited resources and territories. The world beyond city walls is a dangerous patchwork of irradiated deserts and mutated jungles, home to hostile wildlife and desperate people. The pre-Collapse era, a lesson in unchecked tech and environmental neglect, is etched into crumbling city walls. Old artifacts, like data drives and weapons, are prized, fueling hope and conflict. Survival is key, but community and the pursuit of a better future endure in the Collapse's shadow.
