The Military BaseFollowing their rescue the survivors of the senior class of the John Endecott Memorial Academy have been taken back to Joint Branch Lewis-McChord on mainland US soil. This large base is located in Tacoma, Washington and is the only base the Army can mobilize from west of the Rockies. The students are being kept in their own wing of the base where they are provided with medical care, food, clothes, and many other items if they request them. Access to the survivors is strictly monitored and controlled by Interpol and the Army. Only people who have been granted special clearance and highly trusted soldiers acting as guards able to access the building.
The building that the students have been placed in has been specially setup to house them. There is a medical ward for students who are recuperating as well as individual rooms for those who no longer need direct medical assistance. Meals are cooked for the students on site and brought to them at designated breakfast, lunch and dinner times. There is also a recreation space within the building for the students to relax in. Students are also allowed outside to walk the grounds, although this is only allowed at specific times and within a specific designated area.
One notable precaution that has been taken is that the students have only been provided with plastic cutlery, out of a concern that any disputes may become violent.
Please note that only handlers who had a character survive the events of V8 are able to post in this forum. If you would like to take part in the events of the V8 Aftermath but do not have a surviving character please use the Back Home forum. - 12 Topics

The students themselves will be returned home on Monday the 3rd of January 2022, after a two week monitoring period at an undisclosed location. Survivors are also able to post here for any threads set after the 3rd.

The Research Station (DANGER ZONE)First established in 1982 the research station was a joint effort by the American and Norwegian governments. It stands on the western half of the island separated from the town by the mountain. It is made up of five separate buildings of varying sizes, each containing different facilities needed by the staff who lived and worked on the base. It also included a set of tunnels to connect the buildings so that it would not be necessary for anyone to travel above ground during the cold winter months. Long since abandoned following a cut in funding, the base has spent its years being covered and uncovered by layers of snow. The buildings themselves have remained in good condition, thanks to their construction from precast concrete on steel frames with facades made out of composite insulated metal panels.Subforums:

The WildernessSeparating the research station from the mining town is an expanse of wilderness. The main features of this untamed stretch of land are the large mountain that rises up in imposing fashion at the middle of the island, the expansive tundra forest that was formerly used for trapping, and a frozen lake with a campground on its shore. All of these areas and pathways are long since abandoned and are now showing signs of disrepair.

The MountainThe mountain rises up in the center of the island and splits it into two halves. While most of the island sits in the shadow of the mountain's peak, it isn’t possible to reach the summit without extensive gear due to the treacherous terrain near the top. Two paths can be used to navigate around the mountain to go from one side of the island to the other, and enterprising travels can also find some locations off the beaten path.

The Mining TownIn its heyday the mining town was a healthy if small community, with its economy based around the mine at the base of the mountain. Unfortunately, after the disastrous mine collapse and subsequent closure, the town was cut off from its only lifeline and the community slowly died out. All that is left of this town is the empty shells of the buildings. The residents took all their important personal belongings with them when they left, but an assortment of other objects have been left behind due to inability to take them along or lack of care.

The Mine (DANGER ZONE)At the top right of the town is the mine. Previously the economic center of the island, a disastrous collapse of the main mineshaft left an undeniable scar on the community. The fallout of the disaster led to many families slowly moving away to find other work or to get away from the pain of the past. Now the main mine buildings sit behind a rusted metal gate and chain-link fence topped with barbed wire. The old wooden buildings of the mine remain, never having been torn down after the mine closed its doors, but their structures are all warped and broken. The entrance to the mine can still be seen, but it is inaccessible due to a combination of debris and being intentionally sealed up with a heavy wooden barrier.

The Shoreline (DANGER ZONE)On the north side of the island is a rocky shoreline, made up of larger igneous rock formations and smaller crags that form tide pools. The shoreline can be treacherous to navigate, especially when it is wet. Not too far off the shore, the remains of a small plane can be seen in the water.Subforums:

John Endecott Memorial AcademyOriginally built in the mid-nineteenth century as a private school funded by several wealthy Salem and Boston benefactors, John Endecott Memorial gains its namesake from John Endecott the longest-serving governor of the colony of Massachusetts. While the school has a tradition of longevity, what it lacks definitively is a tradition of academic or athletic success. Featuring traditional colonial and New England architecture the school is largely one building with several annexed and added on wings expanded upon throughout the years. With the switch over to a public school, there has been an expansion of interest and enthusiasm in the donor and alumni base and this has seen a large number of renovations and additions to the school. This large amount of investment has seen little payoff and has had unexpected consequences in that a once-thriving Fine Arts department has seen a lot of its own funding diverted for the hope of raising the profile of the STEM fields which still remain struggling. The school's colors are royal blue with gold and white accents. Their mascot is the terriers and they are represented by both the costumed mascot Johnny the Boston and an actual Boston Terrier named Diamond.Subforums:

Residential AreasThere are two main choices for housing within Salem that fit within the John Endecott Memorial Academy catchment, the cheaper neighborhood of West Salem and the more upmarket Surban Housing located by the waterfront. However, while West Salem is generally cheaper there is not that much of a price difference between the two neighborhoods on average.Subforums:

Downtown SalemSalem, Massachusetts is a historical New England city that enjoys strong waves of tourism, mostly in the summer and in autumn and especially during the month of October. Settled and consistently inhabited by Europeans since 1626, Salem is one of the nation's most historically rich towns and many people make trips to take historical tours. The bulk of the tourism, however, centers around what Salem is most famous for: witchcraft, the occult, and all things spooky in relation to the infamous Salem Witch Trials.

Salem MallThe Salem Mall was built in 1977 and is beginning to show the signs of its age. In fact, with an interior that hasn't seen major renovations since the 1980s, it seems to only be a matter of time until it ends up in an urban exploration video. Until that time though the mall is still fully operational and is a frequent hangout of bored teens or those who are working in one of the shops that remain open.Subforums:

The Salem WillowsThe Salem Willows (or just 'the Willows') is a 35-acre oceanfront park named for the European white willow trees planted back in 1801 to form a shaded walkway. Originally the grounds of a smallpox hospital, the area was converted to a park in 1858 and serves as a summer destination for people all over Boston's North Shore. It also presents a quieter hangout alternative for locals who find the mall too noisy and crowded.Subforums:

This forum is for public bulletin boards, social media posts, and other miscellaneous character interactions which may not exactly line up with the time during which pregame takes place. Threads in this forum do not count against the "1 current thread/1 memory thread" limit, as characters can post in various online spaces, hang up fliers, and do other such things in here without necessarily having a set scene. Please consult the rules and guidelines pinned in this section for further information before posting.

Note: During V2 Pregame, the site transferred boards for the first time, and a number of threads were lost, changed, or truncated. During the most recent site shift, a large number of these threads were restored. They have been marked with * and may be redundant or questionably-canon, but have been ported nonetheless for the sake of completeness.
