Outbreak Scenario 28
Added 2025-11-03 20:29:33 +0000 UTCIt has been ten years since the outbreak started. Civilization has not gotten back to normal. You live with your people inside an old freight depot. Power comes from several windmills which power the infirmary, food storage, and some lights in different buildings for part of the day.
Late one afternoon, a convoy rolls up the service road. Three figures step out. Their clothes hang loose, a mix of lab coats and torn military jackets. In the center walks a woman who introduces herself as Dr. Imani Rao.
Two of her people haul a reinforced crate between them, marked in faded black letters: ZETA ANTIVIRAL PROTOTYPE. She says it contains the last working cultures of a drug that might stop infection. All she needs is power and protection while she works.
In exchange for treatment, she requests a test subject from among your healthy. She claims her last volunteer survived seven days before showing symptoms, but she believes her adjustments have made it 100% safe. When you ask for more information and to see her research, she says the compound is not stable and needs to be used within the next twenty-four hours.
