Detroit, Michigan, USA
1994
The city’s last residents leave their homes as the once thriving but now forsaken Motor City deteriorates in their wake. Detroit is unsalvageable.
1995
Crime across the United States has skyrocketed. To ensure the safety and sanity of the restless population, police forces become privately funded, corporate entities. Irredeemable cities across the nation are repurposed into massive prisons.
Dubbed the Detroit Penal Project, Motor City is barricaded from the rest of Michigan and the nation. Behind the prison city’s towering walls the vilest of criminals toil for the duration of their life sentences.
1997-Present
A group of Techno-Terrorists infiltrates Detroit Prison City. The outsiders quickly indoctrinate the criminals and supply them with weapons to build an army. Each security zone is overtaken by an appointed Techno-Terrorist warden. Not much is known about the leader of the Techno-Terrorists or their motive, but the group has been in power ever since.Â
