- What’s your real story?: Real story: Two of us had an idea – a vision for a small tribe. Knowing that two was not enough we shared the idea on the forums looking for some awesome people that liked our idea to fill out our tribe. Now we are seven members strong from three corners of the US – all of us looking forward to our first experiences at WW.
- What is your fictional story? (Explain your cohesive look here).: Back story: The DXC began humbly many years ago with two people struggling to etch out an existence in the harsh landscape. They are known only as Cowboy and the Lady. Working together they built up a sizable reputation for ruthless efficiency as they performed odd jobs of labor and violence. Cowboy has no memory of life before everything crumbled. His first awareness is that of a slave with no name, forced to work in harsh conditions by day and provide entertainment to his masters at night through violent and bloody conflict with other slaves. He was eventually able to free himself, killing his owner in the process. He wandered alone as a feral savage for a time before finding The Lady. Lady had an unusual upbringing for our time. She was sheltered from the global disaster and educated as if she were royalty. She had little knowledge of the desolate outside world until her home was sieged by a tribe of scavengers. She managed to escape but with no skills to cope she struggled to survive. Fortunately she found the man she would name Cowboy and together they found trust and strength. They worked hard to build up their resources and once they acquired a vehicle they were able to expand their territory of business, mostly moving people and special packages through deadly terrain. As demand grew so too did the opposition and after one job left both of them nearly dead it was clear help was needed. The first was the young healer who grew up in the aftermath with her medically trained parents. She was nicknamed “BandAid” early in life by the hospital tent patients whom she’d try to cheer up. She worked alongside her parents for many years until the camp was raided by marauders and her parents killed. All alone, BandAid, set out to do her best to help the sick. She traveled by foot from barrack, to hovel, to fort trading medical care for food, clothing, and the occasional lift to her next destination. It was during this time that she came across the Cowboy and the Lady and they suggested a permanent partnership. Tandy, the fixer, was a young child when the bombs dropped. Her only memory before the apocalypse was laughing and fixing a car with her father. Her parents perished in the great fires and Tandy was left to fend for herself. She would hole up in abandoned homes for the night and fight the rats for bits of food while fending off potential aggressors. As she grew older she found that she found that she had a knack for “fixing” things and jury rigging alarms and traps to keep her safe. She found Cowboy and the Lady by literally walking right into their vehicle while blinded during a storm. After being treated for her injuries with no required payment, Tandy offered to help with some simple repairs in return and simply never left. Even though she was still unsure of this new group, they made her laugh, something she hadn’t done in a very long time. For added firepower the group enlisted a rough but experienced weapons expert named “Fenris” MacVey. He is an ex-soldier that stayed with the surviving members of his pre-war unit until they were overrun by cannibals. With Fenris the only survivor, he wandered the wasteland, picking up odd jobs and merc missions along the way, using his extensive and diverse weapons and combat background to build a solid, if not ruthless, reputation. Eventually he came across the newly formed Dauntless Xpress Corp and signed up for a long term contract. The final two members of DXC are perhaps the most mysterious. Humzila and Smoke, as they are known, are both talented survivalists with a penchant towards justice and righting the wrongs of the world where they can. Humzila was a weapons and survival skills instructor before the fall and is a master huntsman. Smoke was a fire and arson investigator while also an expert in firearms and other weapons. They were desert wasteland wanderers dispatching the wicked and assisting innocent travelers with security and repairs when it suited them. Most recently they lost their vehicle defending a group of pilgrims who were looking for what remains of the city of angels. Shortly after, they found this group that wanted to bring commerce back to the wasteland and decided to merge skills… though at times they still disappear back into the waste for days at a time always returning exactly when they are needed. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire… Dauntless Xpress Corp.
