Ashfall 2008: Jackson Runner

Jackson, Florida. 2008. The world never recovered after the Yellowstone Event. Climate collapse, refugee crises, endless wars, and corporate expansion transformed America into something harsher, dirtier, and far more dangerous. Now the mega-city of Jackson sprawls across the flooded remains of northeastern Florida. Corporations rule entire districts. Gangs fight over collapsing neighborhoods. Monorails scream overhead while neon reflects off rain-soaked streets below. You are a runner. A freelance mercenary, courier, smuggler, thief, bounty hunter, or hired gun trying to survive job-to-job in one of the most dangerous cities in America. Take gigs. Build contacts. Buy weapons. Upgrade cybernetics. Pay rent. Survive firefights. Deal with gangs, fixers, corporations, and Psycho Patrol. Most runners die broke. Try not to become one of them.
