Theater Settlement

The Theater Settlement is a civilian settlement located in Downtown East and is the first settlement the players find. It was founded based on the nature of the location, which is close to the headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and strong JTF presence there. It is an organized and well-protected Civilian Militia front, players can also find its leader Odessa Sawyer. As a Division Agent in her past, she encourages the settlement to follow the rules, never give in to indulgence, allegedly cooperate and/or help the JTF and The Division and uphold the oath she still vows to follow even after her retirement from The Division. This settlement is located on the rooftops of several buildings, most notably Ford's Theater. As the settlement grows, it expands further onto other nearby rooftops, although most of them are inaccessible to players.
The last major survivor settlement in the Washington, D.C. metro area was established in Ford's Theater on 10th Street, just half a block from the imposing edifice of the FBI Headquarters. Home of the infamous balcony where Abraham Lincoln was assassinated, the historic theater became an unlikely sanctuary for displaced civilians seeking shelter.
Ford's began filling up in March, as neighborhood dwellers sought refuge from the increasingly savage Hyena faction attacks in the blocks north of Pennsylvania Avenue. A unique aspect of the settlement's organization is that its founder and current leader is a former Division agent, Odessa Sawyer. A field operative wounded in the Division's First Wave activation in January. Sawyer has directed the fortification work and other measures taken to protect residents from the street violence raging around the Theater. 
== Settlement Atmosphere ==
The Theater had a difficult start marked by security breaches and other setbacks, which continue to affect morale. Although the settlement is now well organized, and its leadership has helped residents develop a better sense of physical safety, Division intel states that an angry, anxious attitude still pervades all levels of the camp. A number of settlers appear exhausted and suffering from a growing sense of hopelessness. This sensibility is no doubt exacerbated by the fact that the Theater is now almost completely surrounded by active Hyena territory.
Also noted in the reports are other indications of social problems: graffiti, refuse, vandalism, inter-resident theft, and incidents of substance abuse and even addiction. Although residents voluntarily selected a core governing council (headed by former agent Sawyer) to keep things running, the Theater group seems to lack an intrinsic sense of community. Some residents clearly feel alienated or isolated. Of course, it doesn't help those resources are scarce in the immediate vicinity, or that well-armed Hyenas are constantly howling at the door. 
== Upgrades ==
As the agent reclaims more and more of Washington, D.C., new upgrades and side missions will become available in the Theater Settlement. Missions marked with the Theater Settlement icon will, upon completion, either unlock a new tier or add an upgrade to the settlement.
== Members ==
Several people working and living in the Theater Settlement are important on varying levels. Some of these people are important community members, while others provide missions to Division agents.
