Apocalypse Tomorrow
Climate change is real. Or, it was… Basically everything they said was going to happen did in fact happen; the ice caps melted, fires grew wild and fierce, droughts choked entire nations, and hurricanes with winds unheard of ripped countries apart. And the weather was just the beginning… Some kind of virus long frozen deep in the ice infected the animals first, causing them to go feral. Then it spread to humans. Luckily modern media prepared us well for a zombie infestation, but that paired with a new apocalypse every other week made survival difficult for everyone. Society collapsed, most everyone died, and the world just ended. It's been 50-or-so years and settled in the western wastelands of what used to be North America, or as it's now known; South Canada, we find a lone homestead. Secure from the zombie hoards, the two tenants live out their days in research, but everything changes when a newcomer arrives in distress, unfolding mysteries none of them were ever prepared for! Making a home, keeping yourself alive, and gearing up for whatever comes next; join us in this goofy slice of life horror adventure and see what the wastelands have in store!

So, a member of the DoE tries yet again to form an underground group aimed at protecting people before it's too late. Too bad it's these guys... This is a set of test recordings from a homebrew modern world based on mythos built up over 2 unrecorded campaigns (technically 1 and 1/2, since the "second" campaign used the same characters).

Note: A lot of this was recorded on a 15 dollar recorder. Everyone makes mouth noises even when we try not to. Seriously reconsider listening to this if you have misophonia.
