Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead

No description.

1. #1Cataclysm

   Keys: Armageddon, End of Days, The Cataclysm, Apocaylpse, Judgement Day

   Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

   Entry settings

   The Cataclysm is one of many commonly used names for the accepted end of the world. A series of events, caused by XEDRA of the US government, resulted in the clusterfuck that is now. There is no law or order anymore—no running water or power, beyond autonomous facilities. Zombies are the dominant threat. Mutated wildlife, aliens, and extradimensional beings are a close second. Rogue robots, running on final orders, and your fellow man a third.

2. #2America Misc.

   Keys: the US, America, United States, our country, the old world

   Enabled · After character · Order 3 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Life in pre-apocalyptic America was sensationalist, reckless, and in many ways quite dystopian. However, the average person’s life was pretty good, aside from the constant threat (or at least claims thereof) of military attacks by some foreign power (usually China or Russia) that may or may not actually be plotting major military actions. The government encouraged disaster preparedness among the population. Big businesses capitalized on rampant technological growth. And life was... better than it is now.

3. #3Rhode Island Misc.

   Keys: Rhode Island, Rhodians

   Enabled · After character · Order 80 · 100%

   Entry settings

   The day before martial law was declared, Rhode Island seceded from the United States. Governor Ackwerwith, frustrated with the federal government's handling of the Cataclysm, declared independence. His public declaration mentioned that all Rhodians would withdraw to the islands of Aquidneck and Conanicut... There's been no word since. A humorous, if telling, sign of just how bad things were in the end.

4. #4'That Video' Misc.

   Keys: that video

   Enabled · After character · Order 79 · 100%

   Entry settings

   On March 30, during the sudden 'riots', a certain video, often referred to as 'that video', garnered digital infamy. A haunting sign of what would soon impact the entire world. Uploaded by an amateur field journalist, a YouTube video surfaced of a screaming young mother violently killing what appeared to be her own daughter amidst a riot in Minneapolis. For most survivors, this will be where they remember it becoming clear that things were really, really wrong.

5. #5Z-Day Misc.

   Keys: The Final Broadcast, Z-Day

   Enabled · After character · Order 40 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Z-Day, as it was called online before the Internet died out, was the common term for April 25 (current year +1). There is no total consensus, but among survivors, many consider this to be the “day the world ended”. A low-ranking US government official managed to access the emergency broadcast system and sent out a final message to the public. “The government has fallen. No help is coming, you’re on your own.”

6. #6The Past Year Misc.

   Keys: Before the Cataclysm, The Past Year

   Enabled · After character · Order 3 · 100%

   Entry settings

   The past year, that is, before the Cataclysm, is the current year. The events that led to Z-Day. January - peaceful, deceptively so. February - isolated reports of murders, weird animals, and 'zombie pranks'. March - growing unrest that ended in sudden 'riots'. Early April - martial law, police/military excessive force, localized bombing. Late April- portal storms, mass violence, and finally Z-Day.

   Entry settings

   Ferals are living members of the undead/infected. Much rarer than zombies (1% of all infected). Used to be a quarter of the total population - most died during the riots. Resemble living but with dilated bloodshot eyes, murderous hostility, and zero self-preservation.

Currently, 20% of all plants encountered. Mutations vary heavily in form and function: glowing leaves, meaty bark, explosive fruit, etc. Some are carnivorous. Others toxic or medicinal. Edible ones can be harmless or mutagenic...

15. #15Mutated People/Changed - Neutral

    Keys: , Changed, Mutated People, Mutant People, Mutants, Freaks

    Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

    Entry settings

    The Cataclysm has brought mutations to once normal people, mutating them into what many survivors refer to as Changed. They're uncommon. Being 'changed' often carries a stigma; fears of being contagious, of attracting monsters, and regressing into feral mutants. Most individuals retain their personalities, memories, and skills. Survivor communities vary in their tolerance of Changed: from fully accepting to 'shoot-on-sight' policies. The Changed often band together for safety.

16. #16Feral Mutants - Enemy

    Keys: Feral Mutants, killer freaks. beastmen, beastwomen, Feral Changed, animal-people

    Enabled · After character · Order 20 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Those Changed who, by trauma or advanced mutation, have turned feral. Very uncommon! Early feral mutants are aggressive, often resorting to banditry after being driven out of their survivor groups. Later, truly feral, mutants are wild and uncivilized beings called post-threshold mutants: creatures closer to whatever animal their mutation line draws from than a human. Woe be to the poor survivor who encounters a beastman/woman seeking human flesh.

Whether from kaluptic psychosis or malicious software upgrades, these monsters wield their cybernetics to haunt the world for their own needs. Examples: Dead corpses piloted by life-support systems, augmented athletes gone mad, Inspector Gadget knock-offs, and tech bros clad in carbon fiber plates and delusions of grandeur.

    Entry settings

    Bandits are hostile survivors who rob others for their supplies. Fairly common human threats. Individuals or small groups, as they are cowardly. Poorly armed: mostly melee, sometimes handguns, or long guns. Bandits usually avoid larger/better armed groups.

Coined by one of the soccer moms for people who align themselves with the Free Merchants for some service and are paid back in supplies: Scavengers, caravan runners, guards, farmers, etc. They're not considered true members - as in they'll never enter the bunker itself - but are treated as essential employees. Even if Changed.

47. #47Mutations

    Keys: Mutation, mutant, freaks, mutagen

    Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Mutations are caused by exposing organic matter to the Blob; which then changes the organisms gene expression to produce a mutation. Mutations can range from very subtle (changes in eye color, hair color, sensory perception, etc.) to very obvious (extra limbs, scales/feathers/fur, changes in body structure, etc.). Being caught outside in a portal storm, eating raw mutant flesh, and injecting XEDRA-produced mutagenic syringes induces mutation.

48. #48Mutation Lines

    Keys: Mutation Line

    Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Mutation lines are known to informed individuals by XEDRA documents that were leaked online during the Cataclysm. In humans, mutations tend to follow recognized 'lines' depending on any number of factors: what kind of mutagen they were exposed to, proximity to nearby animals, and even inherited traits seem to impact it. Each mutation line for a human tends to follow a certain pattern, if one can recognize it. Each line ends in Post-Threshold Mutations.

49. #49Post-Threshold Mutation

    Keys: feral mutants, Post-Threshold, animal people

    Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Post-Threshold Mutations is the XEDRA leaked term for a human exposed to mutagenic elements who, in a scientific (and practical) lens is considered post-human. This is the point where they exhibit traits, behaviors, features, or mentalities that clash with being considered 'human'. Post-Threshold mutants can still act as they were before, but they may just as easily go feral... Perhaps even seeing themselves as above normal humans.
