Forever Unrest
As the United States reaches a population of 500 Million bringing its largest cities to their breaking points, China collapses under its own weight causing billions of refugees to pour into the former Soviet Union, which is still reeling from it's exhausting 17 year civil war and Europe catches it's breath after the near collapse of the Euro, the concerns of single city seem petty and minuscule in comparison...
...but that doesn't make the problems that Macon faces any less real. Like everywhere else in the country the population from the county have pushed into the already crowded cities. Jobs have always been scare and fought for with tooth and nail, but now the few good jobs that do exist are threatened constantly by activists and lobbyists. Regulations choke paychecks and cut jobs. By the time unemployment had surpassed 25% gangs had pushed the police out of their gangland kingdoms, imposing their own brand of justice and ruling the destitute with whimsical laws. A virus that devastated the city, forcing a quarantine that claimed the largest of the city's hospitals and destroying countless homes, creating a dead-zone in which no one treads.
The industry that evacuated the teetering city of Atlanta in hope that Macon's highway network will support their ever-growing needs, pollutes the sky as environmental terrorists become another enemy of the people as their bombs and acts of sabotage force prices to sky rocket. A factory's wages shift from workers to private security forces to protect the company from the unstoppable force that assails them. And beyond that, whispers of things darker, things best left unmentioned for fear that they may hear and come to life...
But there is hope on the horizon.
Come join us and play as human or vampire in a setting based on White Wolf's World of Darkness books. Where what you once thought you knew, might not be true.
