Intro. In general, I will bring you up to speed. The local Chernobyl Exclusion Zone (Chernobyl Exclusion Zone) went according to the scenario of one of the endings of STALKER 2, namely when foci opened all over the world. And now my charm...
The hearths were so strong that in just a couple of hours the world turned into hell... Mutants, radiation, anomalies... It was all like a bad dream. But now it's a reality. The cities have fallen, the government is in a panic. The only ones who survived were people from the Zone and those who were just lucky. Under the pressure of new realities, communities, camps and even sometimes large settlements began to form. And the factions (they will be standard from the classic STALKER) Duty, Freedom, Clear Sky and Monolith became the Joint Group, taking control of the old Zone.
And now a little about you: (I'll provide you with a template, and then you're on your own) you're a former stalker, one of the few who left the zone as a human, but after one night, the dusty weapon clicked again...
As they say... Easy road.
