Notice and disclaimer: This thread is completely, utterly, and TOTALLY seperated, by design, from any and all other threads. As far as the happenings of other threads (like, say, The Elbow Room)are concerned, they occured on the OTHER side of the city. No meshing!
Long before the outbreak, Necrotech officials and the Malton City Council agreed to terms for the construction of a medical research and treatment complex. Necrotech would control the Mallard Tower, the city would operate the St. Luke Hospital, and as an added bonus, a combined police and fire station was built and paid for by to replace other aging buildings. The company even saw fit to build a large chapel annex connecting to these buildings. The area became known as the St. Michael's Compound, after the chapel. It was a hub of medical research and treatment for several years, until the outbreak changed everything.
With the sudden outbreak, the compound found itself in a very fortunate state. With the combined force of an entire police department, Necrotech's own security forces, and the hospital's security department, this complex was one of the few left in human control when the dust settled. With generators in each building, able to keep them at full power, and enormous stockpiles of fuel kept at the police station, this complex is one of the few constantly-lit structures left in Malton.
The hospital still serves its intended purpose, treating and healing the wounded before they venture off again to parts unknown. The Tower serves as the command post for teams of revivers on the streets. The police station serves as a barracks for more permament residents and as a staging area for military and civilian forces in the area. The church has not seen prayer for many weeks, as it is now mostly used as a mess hall and a secondary barracks.
The latest run-in with the Ridlybank Resistance Front had left a great many wounded and weary soldiers seeking shelter and aid. One such soldier is Corporal Daniel Holland. While he was not directly involved in the clash against the RRF, he did wind up in a battle with a mixed group of survivors in a nearby library.
