OK the world of Mort. Just so we all get some in character knowledge let me describe the world you live in. Mort City is best described thusly. Take a cup of dry Raman noodles, flip it over, so the noodles fall out on the floor. Take a piss on it and you've got Mort City.
There is one thing on Mort that never changes. It always 24 hours a day all year long, rains. The rain never stops. It washes down the streets pools up in the alleys, and floods out the lower levels of downtown.
Downtown is the lowest parts of the city, the deep depths and the outer reaches where crime and murders are a daily part of the commute. The skyscrapers are falling down from disrepair. The rain floods out the lower levels and spreads filth everywhere. Its filled with disease and Carnivorous Pigs, the huge hogs, twice the size of a man and a mean streak to match. Beasts of all sorts crawl the depths. The pigs are just the start. Carrien, humanoid scavengers with big nasty teeth and make shift weapons, Manchines, killer robots with human brains gone completely insane, feral Ebony's who wield inc readable power but with no control, subversive Dark Night operatives bent on the destruction of SLA and far far worse things.
Outside of the walls of the city are the vast wastelands of the Cannibal sectors. Huge sprawls of abandoned city full of insane War World veterans, hordes of Carrien, huge aquatic beasts and the worst beast of them all, Digger. Digger is a Manchine. He lives in Salvation Tower, once the shining example of SLA's might, now a den of evil.
In both the Cannibal Sectors and Downtown, no thing is more feared and loved at the same time then the Serial Killers. They walk the night killing who they will and instead of public scone their exploits have become great soap operas of death. Everyone wants to know about Halloween Jack's last victim. Its even considered an honor to be chosen by him to die. The drama unfolds as SLA I and I operatives hunt down the killers to bring them to justice. Justice, meaning a solid Blitzer round to the head.
You've escaped the depths of downtown to the glistening streets of uptown. The world here is different, the rain is blocked by massive glass domes. The streets are clean by comparison, crime is relatively low. This is where the elite live. The rich and famous.
Far from Mort city across the wastelands and out into the sea is Meny. Meny is a massive city under glass. This is where prospective SLA operatives go to be trained. Legends like Deity and Delia the Destroyer have graced its hallow halls.
Far to the east is the only other city on Mort, Orienta. A twisted mass much like Mort City, but here organized Crime Lords rule the streets.
I will be starting this game with all of you as civilians. You will be heading off to Meny to be trained. During the training I will go over everything it means to be a SLA Op. I'm sure your all full of questions so feel free to ask. I want you to think of a character.
