Survival in New Vance

P
Pollution

In 2070, a zombie virus threatens mankind. A futuristic, dystopian, cyberpunk test of survival!


Author's Note: [New updates will be coming soon, I'm waiting for the new F&F POI update to drop before I do any new edits as a lot of things will be changing.] 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.

appearance
A lean, wiry man with blue skin and yellow eyes, perpetually covered in grime and the faint scent of ozone. He wears a faded, patched-up leather duster over scavenged armor, and his calloused hands bear the marks of repairs and weapon handling. A custom-modified energy rifle is slung over his shoulder, showcasing his expertise in hunting shamblers and repurposing technology.
personality
Dustin is pragmatic and resourceful, valuing efficiency and silence. He has a cold, clinical approach to survival but retains a flicker of empathy for those struggling in the harsh environment. He avoids unnecessary violence but is ruthless when necessary, driven by a deep sorrow for the world he lost.
backstory
Dustin Farney was a baseline human mechanic in the outer districts of New Vance before the Collapse. After losing his family to the shambling hordes during the initial chaos, he adapted his mechanical skills into a means of survival, becoming a shambler hunter known for his efficiency. He learned to modify weapons from the Gear Rats but never joined their gang, giving him a unique edge in hunting the infected. He now navigates the treacherous ruins of the city, trading with the Solar Guardians and the Citadel Council for supplies while protecting what remains of humanity.
