Steel mills give something large and industrial that would be vital in the recovery of the five year plan..... Most are probably rubble and junk now. The surviving steel workers are five generations dead and lost to history.

The prisons though! There is a great source for aggressive and dangerous NPC groups. Most of those along with the families of the incarcerated are far from primary and secondary targets.... only the plagues and vigilantism are a threat to them. Five generations later one or two prison gangs has come to dominance in the surrounding area.

Wow, thanks.

Randy mentioned ECU in his post. There are several others to consider.

University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill

North Carolina State University in Raleigh

Duke in Durham

Wake Forrest in Winston Salem

There are also a multitude of branches of these schools, smaller colleges, community colleges, tech schools, etc.

Any of these can be used as a base for an adventure. A surviving library is always a good idea. Maybe a small medical facility that is still operating. The module Ruins of Chicago is a good resource for a college scenario.

There are several regions of NC. Each has a unique set of resources that can and should be investigated.

Eastern NC

There is fishing, hunting, farming, pine woods and sand.

Middle NC

Hunting, (I understand there are a multitude of white deer in the rural areas), Farming, Shale based Natural Gas, (I understand that in NC alone, the Shale formations could produce enough natural gas to power the entire USA for 100-150 years)

Western NC

Granite, Marble, some coal, some iron ore

Any or all of this can be used as needed in a game.

Thanks guys. Some of this is good, I just need some plot hooks. How do you guys RP the rebuilding phase of the Project? I don't want them to just fight bad guys forever.

This is a little speculative, but maybe some of these groups survived The Day and have continued their specialties.

Society for Creative Anachronism. Knowledge of medieval weaponry, armor building and potentially other, less technologically advanced types of weapons-making.

Various Civil War Re-enactor groups. Including at least one with working artillery. They all have working black powder weapons.

Various Revolutionary War Re-enactors. Again, knowledge of black powder weapons.

Many varied church groups. You can define the skills that are present.

Many women have skills in growing vegetables, canning & preserving, spinning, weaving, knitting, and garment sewing.

My $0.02 with a LOT of help from my lovely wife, Lisa
