Description
A collection of my GeMod Survivors.

What started as a result of a community request for a "robot" char turned to a developing idea that just got deeper.

Stage 1 introduces 15 survivors: 3 of them are synths - Abel, Cain and Hope. The other 12 are "enhanced" humans linked in various ways with the Genetically Modified Human Project or GMHP. I tried to buid up credible characters which would be both useful ingame and fun to read about.

The chars for stage 2 will be more....experimental. I intend to introduce a child, a fake-survivor/spy, representatives of other communities contacted via expeditions, who want to do some trading, raider characters popping up as "heartbeat events" and asking for resources, for instance and so on.

I just hope you all enjoy my work for a game with so much potential.
