Quickscope
World 1 of the Quickscope network
Hollow Phoenix is a desert city that burned twice. The first fire took the east side. The second took the power grid, and everything that ran on it went with it. What's left is concrete, glass, and two crews who each think the ruins belong to them.
Every match on these servers is one more night of that war. The maps are neighborhoods. The vote is the crews arguing about where to fight next.
Born on the east side after the first fire. They grew up in the smoke and they fight like it: loud, fast, up close. They never leave a body without letting it know who won. Teabagging is a sacrament.
They hate campers, and anyone who sounds calm.
"We already burned once."
The ones who stayed in the dead server farms when the grid went down, living off battery banks and stolen fiber. Patient, precise, and quiet until they aren't. Snipers by religion.
They hate noise, the Ashborn, and people who miss.
"You were lagging before we shot you."
During the second fire, Coldwire cut the east side's power to keep their servers alive. Ashborn lost a winter to the dark. Ashborn says Coldwire chose machines over people. Coldwire says Ashborn would have burned the machines too.
Neither side is wrong, which is why it never ends.
You pick a side by playing. The crews will talk to you either way, mostly to tell you how bad you are.
