DECAYING PREFECTURES A STATE OF DECAY/OREGAIRU QUEST 18th of August 2013, Clear Weather 15.30 PM It was the first dusk of the apocalypse. Half the kids insist on going home even though their parents told them not to. The other half were afraid, but they were not persistent. It was expected...

Dear Journal 4 Entry 1 I had to get yet another new journal today. It's been... hard, the last few weeks. House got blown out by 'a stray missile from the warfront'. Yeah. Sure. After all, the city's only a few thousand miles out of the way, and there's only seven different settlements between...

Adapt 1.0 Lisa Wilbourn, known to the world—or rather, to her world—as Tattletale, stared at the ticket in her hand. Oceanic Flight 815, business class. All because Cauldron, in all their infinite wisdom and resources, couldn't even think to setup base on all seven continents on each alternate...

In the year 2281, The Courier walked the Mojave Wasteland, and their actions reshaped the region. They worked with the NCR to defend the Hoover Dam and drive the Legion out of the Mojave. They would then turn on the NCR, to force them out as well, but the NCR would take New Vegas by force. The...

Chapter 1: Greetings Earthlings! He thought it was thunder at first. The empty beer cans on the coffee table rattled, his dog let out a low growl, and the single lightbulb hanging from the ceiling swung back and forth. A long moment passed before Clay convinced himself that getting off the...

Ethan Parker stared at the dual monitors that dominated his workspace, his fingers dancing over the keyboard in a well-rehearsed ballet of code. Lines of text, symbols, and numbers filled the screens in a visual cacophony only he understood. An untouched cup of cold coffee sat on his desk...

Hello, and welcome to Project Bastion! This is an idea I have had bouncing in my head for a while, and I am very excited to share it with everyone. I hope you enjoy! It took seven days for the world as I knew it to unravel. The first day started more or less normally. I turned the news...

250 million people are dropped in wild Europe Union (Isolated into an island cutting through the Ural mountains from the main land, Turkey yes but no Arabia, also Britain and Ireland and Iceland) and only have themselves to survive. Rules -No electric devices of any kind, but can craft them...

I should really finish my current fics before starting a new one, but... Eh - the muse does what it wants. Let me know what you think! Waking up without any idea where I am is my least favourite feeling in the world. It doesn't come up often. Even if I forget that I'm not at home, I can...

You look around you. In every direction you are surrounded by a endless foggy, smokey expanse of white and grey. You do not understand what is happening, what this place is or even your own name. Suddenly a very old man (or woman?) Walks out of the fog and suddenly stands on shaky legs before...

Log #1 My ship crashed today, I don't really know what happened. I actually can't remember much of anything, I think the crash rattled my everything and then layered on a bruise for good measure. I woke up outside my ship, laying naked in a crater with a splitting headache and spots in my...

(IC thread linked here: Not A Stitch - Bleak Island Survival in D&D 5e IC - Fantasy - Horror) Here's my elevator pitch: Anyone played a game like Crash Bandicoot or FFX, and washed up on a shore? Seen Castaway with Tom Hanks? Heck, have you read the classic Robinson Crusoe? That's your brief...

You find yourself in what appears to be a gray… void? Looking around you can’t spot anything else besides, what you assume to be, a vast gray nothingness. You can’t tell if this place is actually even all that big, as there is nothing you can spot that would allow you to judge distance in the...

You awake in an island. You don't remember how you got here. You don't know who you are. You need to survive. You get up from the sand and look around. You are in a Beach. The Island is large, you can't see the other side from where you are. There is a dense Forest taking up the middle of...

A/N: I'd been planning on putting this out Saturday, but with it finished and work on building a lead on Against the Deep progressing a bit slow, I figured I'd just go for it. Tinker Test Lab, Cauldron Compound, Jan 4, 2011. Sparks flew as hammer struck metal, slowly shaping the strip of...

In this quest you are the leader of a small community in a post-apocalyptic Canadian wasteland. Though, the 'wasteland' part is almost more due to decades of economic decline than the Collapse itself... Can you keep your little crew together? Will you figure out what caused the collapse? Can you...

Old Conductor, Possessed Anew Prologue In the year 2077 A.D., the confrontation between the two giants of the world was coming to a close. The American Eagle had ejected the Chinese Bear from it's lands in Alaska, and had attacked their homeland in turn. As one army speared through the...

Independence Technical College sits on the edge of the Willamette national forest. Tall pines and fir trees slowly encroach upon its well-groomed campus as it prepares itself for the new school year. Dorm rooms are assigned to incoming students and classrooms are cleaned. Lesson plans are...

Hayden island is a small island between Portland Oregon and Vancouver Washington. On this island is a spot that has inspired me to do a sort of post apocalyptic game I have been thinking about for over a year. It's largely going to be based around an odd location. The Jantzen beach shopping...

The Children of a Dead World It is one minute to midnight... -The Doomsday Clock, 2155 They told us Earth was dying. That was the push. The impetus. The impulse, if you’ll allow a bit of spacer’s humor over something like that. Warming oceans, scorched and humid tropics, the whole shebang...

You are an apprentice adventurer. One could even say it's your family trade. You've spent years learning from your parents and retired grandparents, honing your skill to a level where... well, at least you're not an embarrassment. With that said however, an adventurer going solo is dead meat...

There are a lot of stories I could tell you about the end of the world. I could tell you about two polices officers who choose to die defending a school as the children evacuated rather than fall back. I could tell you about a criminal who's last words were "Everyone wants to be a gangsta...
