Welcome to The Oldest Port
The Massachusetts chapter has years of the storied history that has been heavily influenced by our characters’ decisions (and lack thereof). Currently our game takes place in the fictional settlement called:
The Oldest Port
A community driven picturesque island city that until recently was isolated from the wastes. The Oldest Port avoided all contact with the mainland of “The Mass” for decades. Shrouded in mystery, this community comprised of the survivors from failed settlements and groups who almost met their end is ruled by an even more mysterious group known as the “Council of Paragons”. These enigmatic leaders each uphold a portion of the small region’s organization. These specialized departments oversee topics ranging from mundane things like public health and the bureaucratic machines that keep a budding society civil, to more niche purviews such as the ecological health of the region and of course the grave itself.

Our settlement is set in the region of “The Mass”, formerly known as Massachusetts. Geographically our settlement is located around the middle of the eastern coast of Massachusetts.
While there aren't any formal 'capitals' anymore, Baytowne (Boston), is one of the largest trading posts in the Mass region after most of the area was flooded over after the fall of man.
