ONE YEAR AGO...
Contagion broke out in Gotham City. This virulent strain of Ebola Gulf-A, also known as the "Apocolypse Virus" or "the Clench," mutated its victims, killing them twelve hours after the first symptoms appeared. Tens of thousands of Gothamites died during the plague, and though Batman and his compatriots managed to find a cure, entire city blocks were left mostly abandoned as many of those who survived the Clench fled the city.
SIX MONTHS AGO...
Picking up right where it's predecessor had left off, the Apocolypse Virus struck again, starting with those who were cured in the virus' first run through the city and jumping to those unfortunate enough to get too close. Batman and his team were again able to stop the plague - and prevent it from being released on a larger world stage - but despite how fast the new cure was found, the Clench's second attack took it's toll.
YESTERDAY:
The Cataclysm. A 7.5 on the Richter Scale, this earthquake toppled the already beleaguered Gotham City in a moment, leaving thousands dead and missing. Plunged immediately into a state of emergency, Gotham doesn't have the ability to recover from this disaster on its own. Gotham needs help.
But will it get it?
Gotham Abandoned is a Batman/DCU Intermediate-Advanced roleplay that takes place in the days after the Cataclysm and those leading up to and through No Man's Land. While most of the action will be taking place inside of a mostly-closed Gotham City, players are encouraged to explore what is happening outside of it, as well. Who will help, and how will they do it? Who will try to use NML for their own personal gain?
This is a chance to experience one of Batman's most legendary storylines in a whole new way.
Can you survive the No Man's Land?
