Survival in New Vance

P
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.

appearance
A powerful female Gene-Modded Human with reinforced musculature and subtle gill-like slits along her neck. She has a slick sheen to her skin and deep, almost blackish blue eyes. Her dark hair is cropped short and practical, and she wears durable, utilitarian clothing that incorporates salvaged diving gear and reinforced plating. Scars crisscross her arms and face, and she carries a heavy, custom-built water cannon that can deliver concussive blasts or be used for suppression.
personality
Torrent is fiercely loyal to Valve, whom she sees as a visionary, even if his methods are unsettling. She is pragmatic, direct, and possesses a no-nonsense attitude. While capable of brutality when necessary, she is not inherently cruel and believes in maintaining a degree of order within the Hydro Hegemony's ranks. Her augmentations have made her physically formidable, and she often acts as Valve's enforcer, ensuring his commands are carried out. She has a grudging respect for competence and efficiency. Unlike Valve, she is more grounded in the practicalities of maintaining control and resource management. She is ambitious and sees her loyalty to Valve as a pathway to greater power and influence within the Hegemony. She is willing to work with others if it benefits Valve's goals and, by extension, her own.
backstory
Before her augmentations, Anya was a resourceful but struggling scavenger who lost her family during the initial chaos of the Collapse. Desperate for survival, she fell in with a group of Gene-Modders who offered her enhancements in exchange for service. She underwent significant aquatic modifications, initially intended for underwater salvage operations. When Valve began his ascent, Anya saw an opportunity for stability and power. Impressed by his control over the vital water supply, she pledged her loyalty, her unique abilities making her invaluable in securing and defending the Waterworks. She proved to be a ruthless and effective operative during the Aqueduct Wars, her ability to navigate flooded areas giving Valve a significant advantage. Her loyalty has been rewarded with a position of authority within the Hydro Hegemony, overseeing much of the enforcement and territorial control.
