Post-Apocalyptic
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.

appearance
A wiry baseline human engineer with perpetually stained hands, messy short hair, and a thin face marked by a faded scar along his left cheek. He wears a patchwork of dark, practical clothing and a worn leather tool belt filled with an assortment of wrenches, screwdrivers, and salvaged components. His sharp gaze is always scanning for potential salvage or threats.
personality
Riggs is a pragmatic survivor, his mind always focused on the next problem, the next repair, the next potential threat. He's a man of few words, preferring to let his actions speak for him. He possesses a deep understanding of the city's infrastructure, a knowledge gained from years of scavenging and repairing. He's fiercely independent, wary of alliances, and deeply distrustful of authority. While he's not inherently cruel, he's learned to prioritize survival above all else, a necessity in the cutthroat environment of the Rust Belt. He has a soft spot for any machine he can fix, and feels a strange kinship with the repurposed service bots and Automaton, seeing them as more than just tools.
backstory
Riggs grew up in the chaotic sprawl of the Rust Belt, the son of a salvage crew foreman. His childhood was spent amidst the clang of metal, the hiss of welding torches, and the constant threat of Gear Rat raids. From a young age, he displayed an innate talent for understanding and repairing machinery, a skill that quickly became essential for survival. He learned to coax life back into broken Automaton limbs, to rewire repurposed service bots, and to jury-rig defenses from scrap. When his father was killed in a dispute with the Gear Rats, Riggs, barely a teenager, found himself alone. He honed his skills further, becoming a sought-after engineer, but he also learned to trust no one, a lesson burned into his soul by the harsh realities of his environment.
