Alright big update coming from me tonight, what'll it consist of? Well dipshit if you read the title you'd know.

You see when I make lore I normally think of it in steps:

1. Think up the idea and how I could twist it in a way to fit the kooky, wacky, and disturbed universe of The Highway.

2. Think up mechanics for not only a Forum-Based Roleplaying Dice Game, but also for a videogame like a roguelike or a hardcore FPS with minor RPG mechanics.

3. Actually think of how it'd fit into the universe based on what I thought up, AKA: backstory.

4. And then actually write it up as if some narrator or God was explaining it to you. Letting only myself and other Gamemasters to know how it actually works.

Anytitty.

I thought up some diseases and such that aren't necessarily bad for you, think of them as easy to acquire mutations or genetic modifications... that has a view positives, but mostly cons and negatives and can kill you if it goes untreated for too long. Things like a Hot Coal Flu, which makes you basically immune to fire at the expense of having a really bad fever, shakes, and profuse sweating (to the point of dehydration within an hour). To some that even grant you some vague psi abilities, like Third Eye Syndrome which is gained through having sex with dirty pirate hookers in the Sacramento islands unprotected coitus; it allows you to hear the thoughts of everyone, 24/7, and they never stop, and over time you get migraines, and eventually you get a brain tumor that eventually !!FUNS!! the shit out of your mind.

Then you got some that are just there to fuck with you and make your PCs life a living hell. Like Devil's Dysentery, which literally makes you shit fire. I recommend burn creme as a solution... a bullet to the head.


Then you got the !!Funstuff!! which is basically what people do in this wasteland for fun. One example is Suits, which is basically like a collectible card game only using a standard deck of 52 type cards. Jokers have been recently banned from official Suits play as they are seen to be OP at the moment, we're currently waiting for the NeoVeges casinos to update the rules-set.

Then I'm going to right about our Cheeki-Breeki friends in the northern parts of the US, and hopefully get some more STALKER inspired locations written up.
