Downtown Charlotte
In the post-apocalyptic landscape surrounding Vault 93, the remnants of Charlotte, North Carolina, offer both danger and opportunity. Here are additional activities and areas that fit the setting:
District 57: The Last Refuge
Location: District 57 is an immersive entertainment complex nestled within the decaying heart of Uptown Charlotte1.
Description:
The Event: In 2085, an unknown catastrophe plunged the world into darkness—a global power outage that shattered civilization. As society dissolved into anarchy, District 57 emerged as a beacon of hope.
The Fall: The fall of civilization was inevitable. Anarchy reigned, and survivors scavenged among the skeletal remains of skyscrapers.
The Message: Then, a broadcast echoed across the wasteland—a message from District 57: “Safety, sustenance, and survival await within our walls.”
Activities:
The Grid: A 30-room challenge arena where scavengers test their wits and combat skills against automated defenses and mutated adversaries.
Bordertown Tactical Laser Tag: Navigate the ruins of a simulated border town, evading rival factions and dodging laser fire.
All Sorts Food and Drinks Tour: Sip self-pour beverages—beer, wine, and ciders—while savoring homemade pizzas. The barter system thrives here.
Memberships: Become a member and unlock even more fun at District 572.
Bank of America Corporate Center (BACC)
Description:
The once-iconic skyscraper now stands as a crumbling monolith, its glass façade shattered, and its vaulted lobby overrun by feral cats.
The rooftop helipad, once a symbol of corporate power, now serves as a lookout point for scavengers seeking supplies.
Activities:
The Ascent: Brave the treacherous stairwells to reach the observation deck. The view reveals both danger (raider camps) and opportunity (abandoned caches).
Vault Hunters: Rumors persist that the BACC’s basement houses a secret entrance to Vault 93. Beware the automated security systems.
The Catacombs
Location: Beneath the streets of Uptown Charlotte, a network of forgotten tunnels crisscrosses like veins.
Description:
Originally utility tunnels, they now harbor scavenger camps, mutant nests, and hidden caches.
Bioluminescent fungi cling to the walls, casting an eerie glow.
Activities:
Rat Runs: Scavengers navigate the catacombs, avoiding traps and territorial mutants.
The Whisper Market: A black-market hub where traders exchange pre-war relics, information, and secrets.
Independence Square
Description:
The historic square, once a gathering place for protests and celebrations, now hosts a makeshift market.
Tattered flags flutter above stalls selling irradiated produce, scavenged tech, and homemade moonshine.
Activities:
The Meck Dec: Seek hidden clues related to the legendary Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence. Perhaps it holds the key to Vault 93.
The Silent Auction: Bid on artifacts from the past—a typewriter, a child’s toy, or a rusted pistol. Each item whispers forgotten stories.
Remember, in this post-apocalyptic world, every crumbling building, every dark alley, and every flickering streetlamp holds secrets and dangers. Choose your path wisely, survivor.
