Floating Block 71

Floating apartment block

Antigravity plating was successfully bolted on to Block 71, elevating it above the surface, which was overrun with weaponized animal-horrors. Balloons and AG-pods were used to travel between domiciles and forage for food. A portable fusion reactor kept the lights on, and Block 71 flourished as a refuge of civilization for decades. 

Some notable figures of the Post-Post-Apocalypse, such as Angor Lasereyes, hail from Block 71. After the aspiring mad sorcerer Klaven the All-Knowing grafted cybernetic eyes onto Angor, along with a small diamond battery at the base of his skull, Angor earned his nickname, and spent many years terrorizing small settlements at the head of his gang of marauders, known as The Dead Eyes. 

Innnovative nomenclature was not a strong point in the far future wastelands of Midest Uhmerika.

The Delff Bastion

Delf robot

The Delff Bastion was as xenophobic as it was peaceful. It’s ruler, Wizard-Seer Kruhlhaus, kept the people in a retro state of ignorance, forever caught in the amber of an imagined golden age that merged medieval with the early twentieth century. The high tech infrastructure was hidden from them, except for the Guardian Robots.

Dallasean Navy

Ship of the line from Magnum Thrax

The mighty battle cruisers of the Dallasean navy ruled the waves of the Caribbean in the post-apocalypse. 

The Texas class served for over eighty years, and only battlekraken and pre-collapse ships could hope to prevail against them. Each was commanded by one of the formidable Grand Admirals of Dallas, who were also known for their impressive hats.

The Imperator Ball

Future Ball

The Imperator Ball is held every year in Dallas, assembling together the elite of society for a hedonistic evening. Sense spheres and collective dreaming are now almost as popular as the dancing, giving the event new meaning. 

Mind-images, naturally, were the order of the day, and telesocial networks transmitted them across the psychic realm.

Sorceress Virginia Lightning

Sorceress

The warrior-sorceress Virginia Lightning was an extraordinarily gifted sorceress who was driven out of the Marauders Raider Clan for witchcraft. She found sanctuary in the Four Elements Towers outside the ruins of Denver. There she was taught the Dark Arts, and five years later she returned to seize control of the Marauders, and then lead them against the Sun Corridor.

Decontamination team prepares to scour tunnels

Decontamination team in station from Magnum Thrax

An elite decontamination team in full hazmat gear assembles in the central hall of an abandoned subway station infested with giant mutant rats. A Mark VI antigrav AI sentinel hovers in the background, in case something more… formidable lurks in the tunnels. 

Underground materialist temples could be guarded by both huge bionitic monsters and microscopic plagueswarms.
