Scars Across America
Read the storyIn 2223, America is a fragmented wasteland of warring territories, each shaped by centuries of collapse. The Greater DC Dominion rules with tech-obsessed oligarchs, the Rust Belt Union thrives on industrial grit, the Free State of Texas runs on brutal frontier justice, the Southern Holy Dominion enforces zealot rule, and the Pacific Collective prizes anarchist freedom. When a rogue DC scientist uncovers a pre-collapse weapon, five strangers—Mercy (a DC hacker), Jax (a Rust Belt smuggler), Sol (a Texan bounty hunter), Eli (a Southern defector), and Rook (a Pacific raider)—are thrown together in a desperate chase across the fractured states. Their mission? Destroy the weapon before it reignites the wars that shattered the nation. But trust is scarcer than clean water, and alliances shift like the irradiated sands. The real enemy might be the past they’re all running from.
