Synopsis:

The game takes place in the near future in an enormous floating city known as "The Ark," off the coast of San Fransisco. It was only meant to support 5,000 people, but ended up having to provide for ten times as much. The thousands of citizens in the city quickly became unsatisfied with the lack of food, clothing, and particularly water, and formed a faction known simply as "The Resistance," demanding more of these essentials. After the Ark's leaders refused, they armed themselves to seize power for themselves and distribute water and food freely, claiming that the Ark has plenty of renewable resources. The Ark had little need for a security force at the outset, but quickly began recruitment and went on a firearm shopping spree to counter the Resistance.
