D6 | This future crime city |
---|
1 | is flame-scarred, charred and dim in the smoke-filtered light, perpetual blazes towering titanic over its skyline. |
2 | is collapsing into its own over-loaded & aquifer-drained foundations, leaning skyscrapers making a labyrinthine arcade of its downtown. |
3 | is crampedly-dense and piled upon itself, ever-bright gaudy & anarchic architecture jutting together. |
4 | has been overgrown by urban gardens and oppidan farms, a true concrete jungle. |
5 | is sprawling, cracked and sun-baked, the reek of roasted garbage mixing synaesthetically with the heat-haze. |
6 | is always dark, always raining, slick and black with mold - the rich live high and shining with artificial rainbows, the poor barely keep their heads above the flood. |
D6 | Crime became law in this future crime city |
---|
1 | because psychology was proven to be false, meaning it was normal to be like the Joker. |
2 | because a corrupt corporate pothead pushed through legislation that made it mandatory to include marijuana oil in fuel, filling the city with a narcotic smog of slovenly belligerence. |
3 | because libertarians went too far, and made everything legal. |
4 | because liberals went too far, and made it illegal to arrest anyone. |
5 | because of the rising of Cthulhu out of the ocean, or something near enough like him, which caused a localized psychic zone wherein the sensitive were driven to shout and kill and revel and enjoy themselves. |
6 | because the keys to the city were given to a nefarious character, who then used them to unlock all manner of mayhem upon it. |
D6 | The mayor of this future crime city |
---|
1 | is a fiery reformer who is currently being held for ransom by a gang of former mailmen who can throw paper with deadly accuracy. |
2 | is an inveterate playboy by day, but by night dons a costume and beats up those who oppose his criminal enterprises. |
3 | is an actual, literal goblin, summoned up from the underworld by the city's chaos. |
4 | is secretly gathering all the most evil criminals in the city to overthrow the federal government and have himself elected as crime minister. |
5 | is a musclebound blockhead installed by those who assumed he was as dumb as he looks - though he isn't, and has his own subtle agenda. |
6 | is a feckless and sweaty appeaser, making regular televised appearances to tell people that everything is fine in the city - though it most assuredly is not. |
D6 | The good fight in this future crime city is still fought |
---|
1 | by a cell of militantly pacifist Quakers, whose non-violence ends up helping them as much as it hinders. |
2 | by a convoy of cyber-truckers fused to their vehicles by a mad scientist. |
3 | by the luchador Tremendo Rex - though he has been struck down several times he always returns - in truth his mask is lined with magneto-cybernetics, which allow his personality to possess anyone who wears it. |
4 | by a crew of kind-hearted though abjectly freakish vigilantes who wear ratty old mascot costumes. |
5 | by a citizens' militia as anal-retentively disciplined as the city is anarchic. |
6 | by a commune of troglodytic cannibals, who aren't moral paragons by any means yet still relatively decent sorts for this city. |
D6 | The public transit of this future crime city |
---|
1 | is streetcars, but they have been taken over by hoodlums and equipped with bladed rails that carve their tracks into any surface. |
2 | is a subway system - all the cars have been joined together, each converted into a mobile den of vice, together a veritable hell on wheels. |
3 | is a rickety monorail - and the price of admission now is to go "mono a mono" with another rider. |
4 | was dismantled for scrap, though death-trappy gondolas and ziplines are constantly being set up to fill the void. |
5 | was some ferries, now converted into the floating fortresses of crime-lords. |
6 | is buses, now bristling with welded-on armour and mounted guns. |
D6 | The popular new drug on the streets of this future crime city |
---|
1 | is "speckled jenkem" - the fumes of fermented feces from people infested by mutant tapeworms - its high is often compared to suffocating in the warm and nourishing confines of a giant's lower intestine. |
2 | is the lost (and now found) episode of a defunct podcast - it is of such perfect mediocrity that listening to it induces a blissful torpor. |
3 | is adrenochrome extracted from the brains of terrified people - no longer exclusive to the elites, now everybody can get a hit. |
4 | is the powdered horns of wooly rhinoceroses - a species transgenically re-created in this city due to its lax scientific ethics, to the dismay & crushing deaths of many. Snorting the keratinous stuff prionically reshapes brain-tissue, imbuing the user with false memories and feelings of prehistoric majesty. |
5 | is "the derp", a strain of herpes which causes lesions on your genitals & your prefrontal cortex, causing libidinally-charged and uncomfortably-Freudian hallucinations. |
6 | is "black ice" - a sentient variant of crystal meth which grows parasitically in and on its users, and links them into a psychotic hive-mind. |
