@@ -0,0 +1,22 @@
+With the world population out of control, The Omicron started shipping the
+undesirables off the planet. Of course, they spun it as a good thing: "You
+heroic few will brave the unknown and charter a new path forward for our
+civilization!" We know now that this was just a way to increase their power.
+
+We should have seen it sooner when we realized the ship was made up of mostly
+rebels.
+
+This follows the story of the 53rd ship: the one year anniversary of the first
+ship.
+
+52 ships came before us, and not one has been heard from again.
+
+Of course, there was resistance at first, but with the rebels losing hundreds
+by the week, we couldn't put up much of a fight.
+
+The ships are outfitted with sleeping chambers to protect us during launch, but
+we are told we'll awaken by the time we reach the moon.
+
+Not much else is known about the ships yet because we were knocked out before
+being put on it. Why didn't they just kill us? I guess it doesn't fit their
+narrative.

+
+Identifier:
+Gender: F
+Age: 19
+Occupation: Rebel scout
+Family:
+  Mother died young. Father was part of 23rd Chi Delta.
+Childhood:
+  Growing up without a mother, she clung pretty closely to her father.  
+  Her father was heavily involved in the rebel forces, acting as a code 
+  breaker. She only made a few lasting friends during this time, A and 
+  B.
+Recent History:
+  She has been scouting out a new area of the Omicron capital. The 
+  rebels are unable to enter due to biometric systems throughout the 
+  capital. In the black market, you can buy things to change your 
+  biometrics, but eventually you get found out. The last mission had a 
+  close call, but she was able to get out and considered herself 
+  victorious, having acquired information about a new Omicron base.

+Name: Omicron Capital
+Location:
+  The ruins of a once great society lie on the outskirts of the Capital, 
+  which is nestled in the mountains. The city is surrounded by solid 
+  steel walls, lights sporadically blinking in and out of existence 
+  along every inch of the wall.
+Atmosphere:
+  The entire Capital feels like a war between two sides. On one side, 
+  you have the people in charge, the ones with the power and influence 
+  who make sure you know it. On the other, you have the ones considered 
+  to be scum, just tying to scrape by with enough to get through the 
+  next day.
