The Outpost of Hope

This outpost known as 'Hope' sits in the south eastern region of the desert of Mort. This outpost is Neutral.

History

As with many of the outposts on all sides, Hope has a very muddled history that is hard to disinguish from the rest of the flow of events. It is fairly easy to descern though, that Hope was originaly an Omni-Tek mining camp that was latter abandoned. The construction of the main buildings is the same sandblasted metaplast platting that can be found in Meetmedere and some places in Newland City and often bears the OT logo on it. The prison seems to be a different make, and because of the cracks it seems that it may have been made of some sort of superment or other concrete mix. The walls also appear to be made of laid stone or brick of some sort, but that construction is more reminiscent of similar walls found in West Athens

The shack buildings that lay around the rest of the town are all very similar to the ones that can be found in the enclaves and hide outs all around the face of Rubi-Ka

Present Day

Mack, the bartender and propritor is not very talkative or helpful, nor is the drunken patron thing stumbling around named Bonzo. If you are looking for less of a bar and more for a bar brawl, then this is the place to go.
  • For some reason or another Hope has a fully functional prison that takes up around 20% of the total town. like many of the other Neutral towns, this prison is guarded by a pair of mean looking atroxes.
  • Corky, the intellegent van/car thing that was featured in the AO animated series can be found in ruins outside of Hope at (2810,1870).
