Inside the Underground.
The bombs hit us in 2010. My father was lucky enough to hide in this metro now known as my home. The year is 2034. I just turned 25 a few days ago. In the underground there's many jobs. I became what's known as a settler. Go with a group of 5 to the surface, make a settlement scavenge, and go back underground. Sound simple enough.
There's many factions here. I'm lucky enough to be part of what's left of the Russian government. Yes, I should explain.. before the bombs fell poland was.. very disputed. The side I live on is russia. The other. Nato. Or whatever is left of it. My faction is called.
The federation.
There's others. Such as the people's unification militia. The children of Lenin. And then some other polish factions.
Hope. Became a word used by many. The word hope under here means.
Health. Opportunity. Power. Earth.
But this can vary from faction to faction. Today, i have to go up again. Find some supplies and, Come back. It gets harder and harder every day. Less and less stuff. I should mention the factions. The ones i said we're on the few major ones. There's many fighting for Warsaw.
Although the federation stays neutral, we do have our enemies. Mostly bandits but. A lot of factions see us as enemies, considering we have some of the best weapons. And are one of the few factions that have tanks.
There's different animals.. no. Mutants here. You encounter crawlers the most. It's about as you expect. They seem to be mutated rats they charge at you try to steal food and multiply fast.
I'll be eating my last dinner here with my friends. I plan to quit after this mission. Look for a new place to live. Or die trying.
Me. Kazimir, Aleksei, Yuri, Mishka. Are to go up to old Warsaw and find what's up there.
I should explain the mutants up there..
Crawlers. Small. They make holes. 4 giant teeth and claws similar to sloths. About 2 to 3 feet tall, most hate light, and are partially blind. Their also hairless.

Mutated dogs/wolves. And snow hunters.
Mutated dogs and wolves aren't much different from theirs. Normal counterpart. Most are bigger and just deformed but act as a dog or wolf whould. You can tame these the follow the basic life as a dog and have the same diet. Uncommon to attack a human. Most are in packs.
Snow hunters are bigger and taller than wolves. They are usually gray or white, hence the name. They only have 3 Claws instead of 4.
I've never encountered these, so I don't know much about them.
Those are all the mutants I know. There are obviously more, but I don't know them.
Onto factions.
The federation is made up mostly of the ex military. With your handful of important people. We control about half of wawer and some of mokotow
The Sons of Lenin are new factions. They come trying to spread communism. They reside in the outskirts of wesola.
The people Unification Militia believe that destroying the other factions can bring back a new and stronger poland. Thier very hellbent on controlling everything but only reside in targowek.
There are the polish people liberation army who reside in Eastern mokotow. there are multiple nato bases around the east. Alot made their own faction mostly sticking to race.
The last one I know of is Wagner. The mercenary made their own little base after the bombs fell. We are kinda in alliances with them, although nothing is for sure. They stay mostly in praga poludnie.
Then there's bandits everywhere.
There's more factions, of course. I don't know them, though. And I hope not too.
But that's the rundown. There's a lot more, but I'll write more when I get to the surface.
Here we go again.
