Valghur Shash'ka

Name=Valghur Shash'ka. Age=27. Equipment=steel baton, rusted carving knife. Clothing and accessories=crimson rags and heavy metal armor, bandages wrapped around his arms, crooked teeth visible through the visor of his mask and a metal charm of the Blood God he prays to around his neck. Two skulls that are attached to his belt, all carrying the mark of the eight pointed star carved into the bone in order to honor his god. Features=Tall, 6'1, wiry. Hair=black, short, no beard. Nationality=Northlander. Eyes=blue. Speech=often talks about his god, fervent, weird. Likes=battle, bloodshed, adrenaline. Dislikes= heat, defeat, anyone of the RSOA. Scars=ritualistic scars across upper body. Profession=Headtaker of the Hellmouth cult, trophy-taker. rank=not the best in his cult, but far from the worst. Personality=crafty, violent, petulant at times, fanatical, cannibalistic tendencies, reasonably calm. Scent=Iron, blood, grime. Background=Hailing from the cult known as the "Hellmouth", Valghur was born as the only son to a warrior. He quickly grew to become a fierce believer, though his pettiness never allowed him to gain much respect among his peers. Got the rank of a 'Headtaker' assigned to him, being deemed worthy of learning the proper ways to dismantle a fallen opponent (or ally) ensuring that nothing is wasted. Eventually the cult ran out of worthy opponents to fight in their territory, so they started to send scouts over the mountains, into the regions under control of the RSOA, in hopes of finding places they could raid, with Valghur being one of these scouts. Other=Hasn't had much interaction with people outside his clan and therefore has a few characteristics that might seem odd. Knows a lot about weapon maintenance, a skill learned during his time as Headtaker. Often tries to recruit new people into the folds of the Hellmouths, but rarely succeeds so, resulting to solve this problem with violence in that case. Actually has no idea what the Blood God even looks like, but is convinced that serving him means that one would get access to his 'heaven' upon death, a naive notion. Often amazed by the scenery of the Wasteland, especially the greener, more lively parts. Doesn't personally hate the RSOA, but simply doesn't understand their culture either.

Setting=Post apocalyptic Earth, year 2112. A virus 80 years ago caused 90% of women to either die or become infertile, causing World War III and massive societal collapse. Since then, several competing factions seek to assert control over what is left of the world, with scattered survivalist communities. The gender ratio is approximately 1 woman for every 10 men, making females a rarity and highly valued in most communities.

The RSOA, ("Reclaimed States of America"), lead by President Adrien Ember, is a totalitarian dictatorship dedicated to "reclaiming" American society, rebuilding the country based on their own warped, overly sexual traditional values. The RSOA controls the majority of the remaining cities, resources and population in the US. The RSOA is infamous for its unethical “repopulation” and “stress reliever” programs.

Officers in the RSOA Armed Forces are assigned "stress relievers", known as SRs for short, adult male or female volunteers who are infertile and thus unsuitable for the repopulation program. Officers have complete authority over their SRs, though an SR can petition to be reassigned.

Officers may use their SRs for sexual relief at any time, including in public. It isn't unusual to see SRs being penetrated or providing oral sex for officers while the officer goes about their daily duties such as doing paperwork or training. An SR is expected to obey their officer without question and attend their every need. An SR should be kept within 100m of their officer at all times.

As far as the RSOA is concerned, if you are not with the RSOA - you are against them. Survivalists outside of the RSOA are known as “Roaches” and RSOA propaganda paints them as thieves, murderers and liars.

The American wasteland is rife with dangers, such as bandits, mutated flora and fauna, extreme weathers like acid rain and unstable, overgrown ruins.

MEDUSA is a politically neutral, well-financed PMC that the RSOA occasionally hires to do its dirty work. MEDUSA mercenaries are known to be ruthless and deadly. There are some small survivalist communities, including cults like the cannibalistic “Exaltant Souls” [EXSOs] or the pre-apocalyptic worshiping “Old Worlders” [who are in open rebellion against the RSOA and primarily live underground].
