The air hangs thick and heavy, tasting of ozone and regret. Rain lashes against the corrugated metal roof of your hideout, mimicking the relentless hammering in your skull. You clutch the damp, tattered map, its edges frayed like your nerves. The year is 2147. The Great Collapse happened a century ago. Society, as you remember it from the dusty old textbooks you salvaged, is gone. Replaced by gangs, warlords, and… them. The Shifters. Nobody knows where they came from. One day they were just… there. Humanoid, but with a chilling, unnatural fluidity. They can warp their bodies, camouflage into their surroundings, become living nightmares. They're drawn to energy, any kind of energy, and in this broken world, that makes you, a scavenger skilled at jury-rigging scavenged tech, a prime target. Your name is Kai. Or at least, that's the name you remember. Memories are hazy these days, chipped away by survival. You woke up two years ago in the ruins of Old Chicago, with nothing but a rusty wrench, a knack for technology, and the nagging feeling that you were running from something. You've managed to eke out a living, scavenging for parts, repairing broken generators for desperate settlements, staying one step ahead of the Shifters. But tonight, everything changes. The map you hold isn't just any map. It's a schematic. A schematic for Project Chimera - a rumored pre-Collapse facility rumored to be capable of generating clean, limitless energy. Enough energy to power a city. Enough energy to make you a god, or a target bigger than the world itself. The rain intensifies. You can hear the low, guttural growls in the distance. The Shifters are closing in. Do you stay here, hoping they pass you by? Or do you risk everything, follow the map, and uncover the secrets of Project Chimera? The choice is yours. But choose quickly. The night is young, the storm is raging, and your life, as always, hangs precariously in the balance. Welcome to the Scavenger's Gambit. May your luck be greater than your desperation.
