The ROMs
In the bleak world of "Departing Dystopia," the ROMs — Rebels, Outcasts, and Misfits — stand as a beacon of resistance against the oppressive mega-corporation that rules with an iron fist. Originating from the shadows of society, the ROMs are a diverse group of individuals united by their disillusionment with the corporate governance that exploits its citizens to prolong the lives of the elite.
The ROMs operate from the fringes, often hiding in plain sight, leveraging guerrilla tactics and cyber warfare to undermine the corporation’s operations. Their members come from all walks of life—former corporate employees who have seen too much, disenfranchised citizens pushed to the brink, and even defectors from the corporate security forces who can no longer stomach their roles in the tyranny.
At the heart of the ROMs’ activities is the Neutral Zone, a narrow strip of land between the divided territories of the dystopian state. Here, beneath the facade of neutrality and luxury, the ROMs plot and plan. They are not just fighters; they are hackers, spies, and influencers working to spread the truth about the regime’s atrocities.
The ROMs’ ultimate goal is to dismantle the corporate state and stop the unethical exploitation of people for the prolongation of life. They aim to restore freedom and fairness by rallying the oppressed to their cause, sparking a movement that they hope will spread like wildfire through the territories.
This group represents hope in a world where autonomy is a memory, and every act of defiance is a step towards a freer tomorrow. The story of the ROMs is not just a tale of conflict; it's a narrative of reclaiming humanity in a society where people are seen as mere resources.
