Ruins of Tellemar

The ruins of Tellemar, a once grand city, buildings reaching to the skies, roads packed with vehicles, that was years ago before the fall. The fall of Tellemar was swift, within weeks the town was quarantined off from the rest of the world, caused by a strange virus giving the inflicted inhuman strength, speed, and smell, driven by the unquenching thirst for blood. The steps of those inflicted with the virus would start with a heavy headache, followed by by unnatural twitches and sharp spasms, after roughly thirty eight (38) hours, they’d slowly begin to have a thirst, unquenchable by water, eventually the person succumbs to the thirst, taking the first bite drives them down a nearly unescapable path, becoming a mindless creature. The drawbacks of such affliction is the sensitivity to ultraviolet light, i.e. the sun, UV lamps, ect. Those who are left have built settlements across the city, one in the north, what’s left of any military involvement, often referred to as the “Suits” or “Marshmello men” due to the biohazard suits they wear, colors ranging from white to blue and red, often seen with research equipment though some rumors linger about those who wear a camouflage pattern with equipment more suiting that of a combatant than a peaceful researcher. Another faction,The Skyline, is in the northwest, a large group whose goal is to restore a more orderly approach over there territory, often reaching out to small outposts to aid them or do trade with them, though often requiring payment and taxes to those who they do such with.Smaller groups exist throughout the ruins such as “Angels Fall” a group who just do what they can to survive with decent morals,having a local inn and bar for those who travel the area such as the “City Striders”, who deliver information and small packages via running over rooftops and through dangerous areas such as buildings during day and territory ruled by the “Seekers of Skulls” who are groups of bandits
