LORE: The code within

Law. The one thing that brings order to chaos. The one thing that resolve disputes with reason, fairness and not violence. We need law in this community, more than ever. Surviving in this post-apocalyptic world hasn’t been easy. However, the greatest challenge by far is maintaining peace within the scavengers; their worst enemies are not the humanoids but themselves. And to prevent any clashes among the members in the community, The Code was put in place.

The code is a set of rules or a pledge, if you will, that everyone has to uphold upon acceptance into the scavengers. They will receive the clan’s tattoo on their right arm as a form of identity but more importantly, a way to vouch for their commitment, loyalty and integrity. There are a few key rules that govern the scavengers and ensure things are in order.

  1. All members are to stick with the group at all times unless ordered otherwise by the leader or due to unforeseen circumstances.  Anyone seen leaving the group without permission will be sent to the cell for a week.
  2. No one is to leave camp after sun set and everybody has to be accounted for by then. As there were previous encounters of the humanoids in the vicinity during the dark hours, the clan has taken this precautionary measure to safeguard his members.
  3. Strictly no changing of factions. Whatever job you are assigned to since the day 1, you are to stick with it.
  4. Any form of violence towards a fellow member is strictly against the Order and he/she will be sent to the cell for a month as a punishment. Repeated offenders will eventually face exile and leave the clan for good.

So far, everyone has abide to the code faithfully and the Scavengers are living in peace.
