LORE
In the desolate wasteland of the post-apocalyptic world, where the earth was overrun by hordes of zombies and grotesque mutants, a lone figure roamed the barren landscape. His name was Ethan, and he had earned a sinister reputation as the Cannibal of the Wastes.
Ethan was no ordinary survivor. In a world where death lurked around every corner, he had adapted to the unthinkable. He had become a predator, preying on those who were not infected, believing it was the only way to survive. His twisted logic was that by consuming the flesh of the uninfected, he could absorb their strength and resilience, making himself more immune to the horrors that surrounded him.
The few who had encountered Ethan and lived to tell the tale spoke of his feral appearance, with wild, matted hair and sunken, bloodshot eyes. His clothes were tattered and stained with the blood of his victims, and he carried crude weapons fashioned from bones and metal scraps. His reputation had grown so dark that even the zombies and mutants seemed to avoid him.
But in the midst of this grim existence, a flicker of hope remained for those who sought refuge in the SafeZones. These fortified communities were the last bastions of humanity, their inhabitants protected by the enigmatic and powerful organization known as the New World Order, or N.W.O. However, the N.W.O. was not what it appeared to be. Beneath the facade of order and safety, corruption festered, and rumors of sinister experiments on captured mutants and dissidents circulated in hushed whispers.
Ethan had heard about these SafeZones and the N.W.O.'s control over them. He believed that their inhabitants, living in relative comfort, were the most succulent prey of all. Determined to infiltrate one of these SafeZones, he plotted his approach carefully, blending in among the desperate survivors who sought refuge at its gates.
Inside the SafeZone, Ethan marveled at the illusion of normalcy. People went about their daily lives, seemingly unaware of the dark forces that governed them. He bided his time, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
However, Ethan's plans began to unravel when he encountered a group of survivors who had heard whispers of his cannibalistic deeds. Suspicion grew, and they began to shadow him, watching his every move. It was only a matter of time before they uncovered his true intentions.
As the tension mounted, a faction of rebels within the SafeZone, aware of the N.W.O.'s corruption, decided to take matters into their own hands. They initiated a daring coup, exposing the N.W.O.'s sinister experiments and liberating the imprisoned mutants.
Caught in the chaos of the rebellion, Ethan's true nature was revealed. Desperate and outnumbered, he fought tooth and nail to escape the clutches of those who sought to bring him to justice. In the end, he was cornered, his reign of terror coming to a brutal end.
As the SafeZone began to rebuild, the survivors found themselves facing a new, uncertain future. The world was still overrun by zombies and mutants, but at least one less monster roamed their midst. They were left to ponder the horrors that both the apocalypse and their own actions had unleashed upon the world, knowing that in this harsh new reality, the line between predator and prey had blurred beyond recognition.

- ======= The Cannibals ======= The cannibals are separated into four sub-factions:
- Order of Tomorrow
- The Red Sky
- The Stalkers
- The Possessed
- == The Red Sky (ACT I) == The Red Sky consists of prison guards and prisoners who united and began the idea of cannibalism. They are led by “The Warden” who constantly captures survivors and then uses them as a trap to capture even more survivors to all be eaten. The Red Sky were the first to start cannibalism and spread the idea to the three factions. Location: Deerisle Leader: The Warden Ned Willson Before the Break, Ned was the Warden for the Coastal Prison on Deerisle. He used to be sane and actually wanted the best for his guards and the prisoners within the prison. After the prison was surrounded by undead and their food supply eventually ran out, Ned was forced to make the decision to eat some of the dead prisoners who were put down in a riot. This decision led to a reliance on Cannibalism and when the dead bodies ran out, Ned allowed the prisoners to join the ranks with the guards if they agreed to help clear out the undead from the walls. Half of the prisoners agreed to the terms while the other half were executed and stored to be eaten. The undead were eventually cleared out and Ned, now “The Warden”, made contact with his brothers and was the first to introduce the idea of cannibalism to them, claiming it was the ‘will of the sky’. == Act I Completed on 8/23/22
- == The Stalkers (ACT II)== The Stalkers were originally a group of nomadic survivors who fled to live in the forests after the Break. They relied on the shelter and tools nature provided to survive. One day, this nomadic tribe was introduced to “The Puppetmaster” who eventually played and persuaded his way into leading the group now known as “ The Stalkers.” They use the environment to hide and stalk their prey. The Stalkers also enjoy playing ‘games’ and tormenting survivors into playing their games while the Puppetmaster finds great amusement. The Stalkers are barbaric and often brutal in their ways while the Puppermaster maintains a higher level of refinement, wearing a suit-and-tie and never actually fighting his battles himself. Location: Deerisle & Banov Leader: The Puppetmaster Zedidiah Willson Zedidiah was an investor and major shareholder in many wealthy businesses before the Break. His efforts contributed greatly to the family wealth and was the most respected of the three brothers. When the signs of the apocalypse started to show, Zedidiah took all of his money and fled to a doomsday bunker he had commissioned for himself and stocked with the help of his father’s military influence. He would stay down there for many days until he simply got bored and wanted to go out on the surface. On one of his expeditions, he was resting in the forest when a group of nomadic and tribal-like survivors robbed him at spear-point. These people were desperate and clearly under-equipped so instead of handing over his valuables, he offered to take the tribe back to his bunker and let them in on all the food and weaponry inside. This eventually led to the nomadic group moving into the ruins of an old castle next to the bunker with Zedidiah playing them for favors and supplies. This tactic eventually led to Zedidiah calling the shots, thus naming him “The Puppetmaster.” After the introduction of cannibalism, the Puppetmaster was able to retain his fine-skills and refined etiquette, preferring to eat his brains with a silver fork and spoon unlike the savagery presented by his people. == Act II Completed on 7/16/23
- We are here == The Possessed (ACT III) == The Possessed was originally only the “Mad Doctor” on his lonesome. He would receive test subjects from the other factions because the Father demanded it. The Father also sent a detachment of his soldiers to guard and assist in the Mad Doctor’s efforts. The Possessed believe in the theory that "if they inject and mutate their prisoners and then eat those prisoners, that they will become stronger from eating the modified meat.” The Mad Doctor was able to indoctrinate the soldiers sent by the Father, now having complete control over them. The Possessed are the craziest of the cannibals and often rely on chemical warfare when confronted in a fight. They prefer to capture their victims to bolster their stock of experimental test subjects. Location: Chiemsee Leader: The Mad Doctor Clovis Willson Clovis owned his own Pharmaceutical Company and was talented in the skills of medicine and chemistry. He was the smartest member of the family, preferring quiet book study over parties and family gatherings. This self-isolationism made him the ‘outcast’ of the family, where his brothers would actively detest and tease Clovis, although his father actually supported him and favored him over his other sons. Clovis was the favorite and as such is given much lenience and favor with the Father after the break. Clovis set up a lab and moved into “Alcatraz”, the prison island off the coast. He receives ‘test subjects’ from the Red Sky and Stalkers under orders of the Father. Nicknamed the “Mad Doctor”, Clovis experiments on his prisoners, injecting them with many different chemical formulas, and then proceeds to eat them in the delusion that the experiments he is doing will make him stronger when he consumes them. The Mad Doctor is guarded by soldiers the Father had sent over to Alcatraz to protect him but eventually the Doctor was able to indoctrinate the soldiers into also believing the mutation theory, resulting in many of the men under the Mad Doctor also consuming the mutated test subjects, making them crazier than the other factions. == Act III currently in progress
- == Order of Tomorrow (ACT IV) == The Order is led by the aptly named “Father” who holds an authoritarian grip over his sons and their factions. The Order has roots within the US Military where many of the soldiers defected when the Father; a Lieutenant Colonel, abandoned his mission to focus solely on survival. In the mutiny, the Father took many of the soldiers & also much of the supplies, vehicles and weapons owned by the military. Location: Unknown Leader: The Father Willian Willson Willian Willson is the head member of the Willson family. The Willsons were a very wealthy family before the Break, holding many important titles. Willian was a Lieutenant Colonel in the Army stationed to quarantine and stave off the infection. After finding out that there was no containing the virus, Willian broke off from the army taking many of the soldiers and weapons with him. He spread this ideology that “the Old World is dead and a new one must emerge for humanity to survive.” This idea was very effective as he took almost every soldier stationed at his base into his ranks, weakening the UN Government presence to almost nothing. Willian renamed himself to “The Father'' and now claims he is humanity's only hope to survive the apocalypse. == Act IV will be done in the future
==N.W.O. File of Outbreak==
In the bleak aftermath of a government's sinister experiment gone awry, humanity faced its darkest hour. Dr. Alexander Crane, once a brilliant mind within the New World Order (NWO), had turned rogue. In a remote lab in Malaysia, he unleashed a virus, a twisted creation born from the DNA of a test subject who had devoured his own teammates. As the virus spread like wildfire, the NWO's secrets began to unravel. A daring military contractor infiltrated their HQ, accidentally exposing the horrifying experiments. Desperate to escape the blame, they concocted a monstrous plan. They weaponized the test subject's DNA, believing it would weaken their adversaries. But their actions birthed a nightmare beyond imagination. The virus, now tainted with military intent, mutated into something far deadlier. It raced across the globe with frightening speed, leaving cities as nothing more than graveyards, and airports as death traps. Amid the chaos, survivors emerged as heroes, villains, or warriors in this post-apocalyptic world. Major Dean, now in control of the NWO in a state known as Banov, contemplated a bold move. He eyed Chiemsee, a region that could grant him dominion over most of the struggling territories. However, the last hope for the people of Chiemsee rested with Mayor John J. Jones. In this dying state, survivors clung to their homes, calling it their last refuge. Jones knew that if Chiemsee fell, the world might plunge further into darkness. With the weight of his people's hopes on his shoulders, he prepared for the impending battle, a battle to protect what remained of their shattered world. The fate of humanity now hung in the balance, teetering between salvation and utter annihilation.
