    Realistic or Modern Welcome to the Wasteland: Main

    Edward Kapel As Edward walked along quietly with the group, he could just barely make out the near inaudible ticking of his wristwatch.

    Realistic or Modern The Theory of Madness

    After passing Ana the map, he figured it'd be best to give her a moment to look over all the details he had noted about the initial drop. He turned his attention to the other woman on the plane who had been listening in on their conversation, whom he had figured was experiencing the same...
