Sector Administrator Mark O'Brien has retired to City 30, leaving a new, previously unknown politician in his administrator position in the famous City 1. He goes by no other name than simply "The Consul." Ever since his appointment by the beloved administrator, City 1, the shining jewel of America, has gone dark. No communications have ever been received from City 1 for the past year and a half. Yet this blackout has gone curiously unacknowledged. Earth Administration, the Ministry of Civil Protection: all silent. Unquestioning. The only hints that life continued behind the city's sealed barriers came in the form of fragmented, illicit transmissions. Smuggled messages, spliced data packets, and voice fragments—all attributed to a group of unknown insiders dubbed Proxies. Digital phantoms risking everything to reveal slivers of truth.
This was until days ago.
Transmissions have reopened between City 1 and the rest of the world. The Consul of City 1 calls for the "BRIGHTEST MINDS OF SECTOR TEN" to join him in his city to partake in new scientific advances. He speaks of a monumental undertaking: The 25-Year Plan, a bold, all-encompassing initiative to reshape the continent. He calls for volunteers, laborers, and visionaries to assist in purging the so-called “Patriots” from the land.
But beneath the polished speeches and flawless feeds, something festers. The tone, though triumphant, feels hollow. The smiles don’t reach the eyes. Something lurks just out of frame.
Some whisper that The Consul is no savior. That City 1 is not a sanctuary, but a trap. That those who enter do not return.
PLAYABLE FACTIONS
| Civil Protection Sometimes just called the City 1 Police Department (C1PD), Civil Protection is an organization which needs no real introduction. The City 1 branch of Civil Protection was founded by ex-NYPD officers and leaders, and this is still reflected today in its structure and morals. | Western Standard Industries A new take on the Civil Worker’s Union. One of the last corporations in the Western Hemisphere, and perhaps the whole planet. Western Standard is a government owned conglomerate which offers manufacturing, entertainment, retail, and healthcare services. ‘Standard, as it is called, bows down only to The Consul, and his own divisions of supporters. | Liaison Officers A new take on Loyalism. Liaison Officers are the Consul's own civic supervisory force, acting much like community role-models rather than legitimate loyalists. Although, becoming a Liaison Officer is the only sure way to become a loyalist, even if there are new responsibilities to take in. |
| Legion 808 The menacing legion of the East Coast.. | City 1 Conscripted Stabilization Force The conscripts at their full potential, no longer relegated to common criminals pushed in to service. Now, under the Consul's oversight: a standing, professional army. | Synthetics The support elements of the city. Cremators, guards, and other more clandestine products of The Combine's oppression. |
| Citizenry The common saying is "City 1 is a prison, after all", and if that is true, then the citizenry are the prisoners. Citizens need no introduction, they encompass those who aren't Liaison Officers, and those who can't quite be described as "rebels." | Vortigaunts Prisoners alongside the citizens. They suffer shockingly harsh treatment, compared to their compatriots in other cities. | Resistance The liberators -- freedom fighters. They work hard each day to attempt to gain a foothold in the city, all the while avoiding the lockdown, and trying to spread their message. |
