[Monday April 4th, 2072 | 6:30pm | Denver, Warrens, Warzone]

It had only been a couple days since you'd moved into the dilapidated apartment build with your chummers from the Saints. No longer were you in the relative safe confines of the Shenandoah section that the Saints had on lock down. No, you were off to the Warzone now. Now was your opportunity to get the money and the power that you'd risen through the ranks wanting.

The Warzone, your new home, resides in the middle of the Aurora Warrens...the slums of Denver. Once an upscale shopping district before the Treaty of Denver, it was converted to high density, low income apartment blocks after the treaty. The Warrens is an infection and the Warzone was its point of entry. First to be abandoned, it's services have broken down to nearly nothing, but it's position on the major arteries of the area continue to ensure both its strategic importance and its economic value to those who vie for it. Vast stretches of this area are utterly ruined, but still densely populated. At the very core of this infection lies the ruins of TinkerTown.

Some six years after the main structures collapse, the automated defenses finally seem to be offline and the ruins settled. After that, the Golden Talons, had taken control of the Warzone and benefited mightly from its location. Their rise to power in the Warrens is only eclipsed by their fall. Making enemies of other local gangs, including the Saints, and other criminal syndicates, they were nearly systematically wiped out in what was all but called a "genocide of a gang" by the Denver media.

Needless to say, their old territory freed up. Now you're newly formed gang, an offshoot of the Saints, trying to get a foothold in the Warzone. In your first days, you were able to consolidate your block, get the girls working the corners, and start dealing some low level drugs. It wasn't going to be easy, but hey, what in your miserable life ever had been. The Saints, well more importantly Gabriel the main man, had a vested interest in your success. Giving you some initial funding and support in the form of five street level thugs, you were in prime position to exploit the Warzone.

After a short day's work, you were stretching out in the common room of your apartment complex. They day was old...but the night was young and there was a lot to do....
