Zombies & Raiders

A Post Apocalyptic Campaign Setting
Welcome to the Wastelands
A Broken World
Our grandparents lived in a world without fear¸ without hunger or thirst. A world of lush green prairies and fertile farming fields. A world of global communications¸ of electronics and nuclear produced electricity with an abundance of clean air and drinking water. But better yet¸ it was a world without zombies and mutant creatures. After the outbreak that began the apocalypse¸ the world slowly went into chaos as society was dying and laws vanished. Yet it was not enough¸ more devastation befell the world as unmanned nuclear power plants went into meltdown and radiation poisoned the lands around.
Now imagine a world¸ broken and devastated¸ devoid of most of it's living population¸ and full of hungry zombies who shamble around looking for flesh to tear into. Those that survived these events realized that the rules had now changed¸ and that what ever was needed in order to survive¸ had to be done sometimes without hesitation.
Many years after the initial outbreak¸ zombies still roam the land and flood the great cities of old¸ which now lie in ruins. The remaining survivors have adapted to their new lives and have begun to rebuild some sort of society. Naturally in order to rebuild a world we'll need plenty of resources and materials. So now¸ many of us venture into the great old ruined cities of old¸ looking for valuable materials to salvage and trade for goods in Bartertown.
