Wasteland

The year is 1995, twenty years ago The War. The entire planet is now nothing but a barren, gray desert, with tiny pockets of nature and civilization struggling to survive.

The year is 1995, twenty years after The War. Most life has gone extinct, and the days are short and cold. Snowfall isn't an uncommon occurrence even around the Equator. Tiny, remote patches of nature and civilization exist, but most biomes have been reduced to gray deserts, and all major cities are radioactive death-traps, crumbling away, never to be resettled.

The rusted bodies of the colossal Machine Beings wonder aimlessly, not a thought behind their metal skulls, searching for masters that have long since left them.

Barricade Dogs prowl the Wasteland, large mutated descendants of domesticated dogs, coyotes, and wolves. They're fur can change color to blend in with the environment or display emotion.

Wraithbeasts are the worst nightmare of survivors: Heavily mutated Komodo dragons have spread across the world, and have grown twice are large and thrice as aggressive. Some rumors say they can breathe fire.

Hoppers - descendants of rabbits - travel the Wasteland in packs. They're weary little creatures that subsist on the hearty cacti and root flowers that survived The War. They're scared easily, and are the main source of food for Barricade Dogs and Wraithbeasts.

The Predators are a nomadic human society, lead by one William Finger, and they travel the Wasteland on Bilders, and frequently raid lone settlements and survivors.

Bilders are the descendants of horses. They're shorter and stockier than horses, but just as strong and far more brave. They've replaced dogs in the role of man's best friend, and have a distinctive orange fur due to their diet consisting heavily of roots like catos.

Catos are a bitter root vegetable made from crossbreeding carrots and potatoes. They're exceptionally nutritious and can grow even in the harsh soil of the Wasteland. Other crops such as fruits or grains are grown, but its rare.
