Lore

The lore of Posterity Isles is scarce, however, there are a few entries given by the lead developer that may explain parts of the game and its environment. These mainly come in the form of text.

## Earliest Entry on Posterity Isles

In the year 2009, things started to go wrong on a little known tourist island known as "Posterity Isles". The local government of the island has been cracking down as hard as they can on crime by purchasing absurdly priced stuff that was "guarantee" to get the situation stable.

The situation just kept getting worse and people spent less and less vacation time around the island. A massive terraforming project was approved by the island's construction council to make the island look even more beautiful than it ever has to pull tourist back in but it fell completely flat half way through.

In the early months of 2010 everything went south. The government lost all of its money and seemingly vanished with nothing but their voluntary law enforcement program still active. Everything went far south and left the residents and remaining tourist with no rule to follow but their own.

## Posterity Isles Reclamation Program

The "Posterity Isles Reclamation Program" was created with the sole intent of recovering data that was left behind in the hurry to leave the island and to take back any trinkets left behind by forgetful tourist.

The "Reclaimer" was of the government's own design and is one of the very few things that they have produced on their own. Very strange considering almost all equipment is made by foreign businesses such as "Millard & Sons Arms Co." from the United States.

The reason for the government wanting these old flash drives and little novelty trinkets is for a few reason. The drives contain very sensitive information about individuals who work for the government, previously worked for them or people who have simply been punished for any reason. As for the trinkets, those just contain small amounts of gold that they can melt and sell for a much larger profit.

Previous attempts to recover these things were done via "recovery spheres" which were produced by an unknown manufacturer. Sadly these spheres barely work and seemingly only pull these things to the surface.

## Posterity Isles' Industry

Despite the lack of any natural resources, the people of the Posterity Isles did attempt to start up some form of industry. This quickly failed however due to lacking anything needed to continue operating these facilities and production floors.

The only successful industrial facility in the isles was the water treatment plant. though this was only because of foreign intervention and a complete buyout.

The water treatment plant was left to rot one year before the government's collapse due to a worker's rights protest that lead to the entire plant being shut down. Now leaving the entirety of the isles without any clean drinking water.

## Explanation of the Isles

If you ever visited the isles after its abandonment yourself you would have probably asked yourself or your tour guide something along the lines of

- Why is there so much sand?

- This looks like a desert, is it?

- What's with these weird yellow devices?

We're answering this right now. For the last two years of its operation the Posterity Isles were going under an extreme terraforming project to make it more exciting for tourism. Previously it was primarily coastal sand which is what it was known for. However, nobody was able to tell the difference visibly from coastal sand to regular sand. So the Posterity Isles Government took queues from the tourism capital of the world.

What's that? Bangkok apparently. But for the sake of the answer lets just say Las Vegas. Vegas is known for its vast and diverse buildings. But its pretty difficult to build an entire city on-top of mostly grass and sand in such a small spot of land in the middle of the ocean. So they started small by just killing off the grass and later on getting around to scooping out all that sand and selling it outright.

If it isn't obvious, they only barely got through the first part of that plan before everything failed leading to the project being cancelled. This didn't help with the financial situation obviously because hornet charged a *premium* for those terraforming towers on-top of the extreme amounts of maintenance needed with the condenser towers not working right for some time. Now the terraforming pylons that are left around the island are just collecting dust and rust till someone comes to reclaim them.

## BCM Drones

You know about those drones you occasionally see flying around? Maybe you fly them yourself. But have you ever wondered about who made them, what they were meant for, why the government uses them let alone has them?

Well, for starts if you don't know how to read, The "BCM" drone got its name through some weird designation sheet that the Millard & Sons company uses and yes this thing was made by them, same guys who made the old-school Datajack that hackers love to get their hands on and modify. This variant of the drone has cargo racks mounted to it so it can transport equipment and parts across airfields quickly, potentially could be used for rapidly carrying ammo on a battlefield in the event of a war though it hasn't been used for that yet.

The BEM drone is used by the government that runs the isles but was originally just made for law enforcement agencies for public announcements in poor areas in the United States. This is so they can give warnings for evacuation orders in the event of natural disasters. One such state, Florida, actually uses these drones frequently during hurricane season to remind poor communities to prepare for impending flooding and power outages.

Due to the design being incredibly modular there's other models made for a variety of purposes such as the BWM for weather surveys and BDM which is used to appear as a decoy on military radars.

It's a very impressive design that can stand to take a couple beatings and still work, though this versatility, modularity and sturdiness leads it to being illegal in most countries for civilian ownership. Reason why varies between it being used for smuggling weapons, the fact it can possibly interfere with radio signals or fear of explosives being rigged to it and being used in terrorist attacks.

The 12th revision of the drone's design made it impossible to be rigged as an explosive.

## Derelict Point

Have you heard rumors about the weird alien looking space ship on the south coast of the Posterity Isles? Nobody has seen anything like it outside of movies let alone in-person, almost looks like something straight out of Star Wars!

However, it's there and people don't know the full story which is why I'm here to disclose some time-lost info about the infamous Derelict Point.

Everyone talks about the ship being some failed experimental solar powered aircraft, others talk of it like a giant flying fortress used to obliterate anything below it, I even hear some people with their tin-foil hats saying that it fell out of the sky and it was a failed alien invasion! Well I am very sad to say but none of that is true.

The real story is that the Posterity Isles Tourism Committee after arresting the guy who made the "Robot Garden" apparently offered him a job after noticing people taking pictures with it, so not only were all charges scrubbed but he was being paid big money for an ambitious project, a giant cool looking space ship on the side of the road that people will want to stop by and take pictures with the goal of increasing the flow of tourist and money to the island.

What's crazy is that it worked, right when the government needed it to work crime started to increase around the island, meaning that all profits earned from tourism to Derelict Point went straight back into law enforcement. Still a mildly crazy story but I really wish that the alien invasion rumors were true.
