With the historic Anglo-Saxon settlement of [[Foulkes Village]] to the south, it is unsurprising that Nixbank earned its name from the Old English term "nawiht" meaning "good for nothing, worthless". This bank of the [[Ruddlebank|Ruddle River]] has always been notoriously marshy and treacherous. Tales of travellers being lost in its mud, possibly dragged down by marshmen, were still told to children to keep them awake at night right up until zombies replaced the marsh-dwellers as the bogeymen of choice.

The Ruddle runs from south to north through the suburb, creating a swathe of clay mud, and as a result Nixbank's centre has very few buildings of note among its numerous wastelands and 'car parks' (i.e. more wastelands, with rusting cars abandoned on them). Less than half of the suburb is actually developed, and it has never attracted much interest either from Maltonians or outsiders. Even zombies generally leave it alone. Of chief interest to post-apocalypse survivors are the three NecroTech buildings, three police stations, and the lone hospital to the nrtheast. A central meeting point is [[Club_Staley|Club Staley]], situated at the empty heart of the suburb, and allegedly built on top of the marshmen's underwater dwelling. (Some older locals attributed the zombie outreak to the spread of disease-carrying marshmen throughout the city's sewers, but as they have now all been eaten these claims cannot be verified.)

'''26/11/2020''' The west side is completely ruined, but many buildings have been ruined just recently. Only about a dozen zombies in the suburb and probably at least 5 survivors. Zombies are concentrated on the east side which is currently contested and repeatedly repaired and ruined. Sleeping in buildings that are only VSB can be considered moderately dangerous for survivors, but relatively safe if EHB. An additional group of a few survivors or zombies could heavily influence the state of this suburb. --[[User:Jelito2008|Jelito2008]] ([[User talk:Jelito2008|talk]]) 10:16, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
====October 18<sup>th</sup>====
Nixbank is clear of zombies except for wanderers; no organized mobs of over 2 or 3. None of the buildings are ruined, most of them have gennies with a somewhat reliable fuel supply. Good place to freerun, there's a VSB warehouse serving as an entry point to the NT building (the Penning Building) and a hospital and police station further north. The warehouse's genny is out of fuel, and Club Shelley doesn't have a genny, for anyone who is willing to drop one off there. The only zombies seem to be appearing at the Penning Building or up north in the next suburb, and are usually alone. --[[Dr Jeykll - Editor]] 20:35, 18 October 2011

With the historic Anglo-Saxon settlement of Foulkes Village to the south, it is unsurprising that Nixbank earned its name from the Old English term "nawiht" meaning "good for nothing, worthless". This bank of the Ruddle River has always been notoriously marshy and treacherous. Tales of travellers being lost in its mud, possibly dragged down by marshmen, were still told to children to keep them awake at night right up until zombies replaced the marsh-dwellers as the bogeymen of choice.

The Ruddle runs from south to north through the suburb, creating a swathe of clay mud, and as a result Nixbank's centre has very few buildings of note among its numerous wastelands and 'car parks' (i.e. more wastelands, with rusting cars abandoned on them). Less than half of the suburb is actually developed, and it has never attracted much interest either from Maltonians or outsiders. Even zombies generally leave it alone. Of chief interest to post-apocalypse survivors are the three NecroTech buildings, three police stations, and the lone hospital to the northeast. A central meeting point is Club Staley, situated at the empty heart of the suburb, and allegedly built on top of the marshmen's underwater dwelling. (Some older locals attributed the zombie outreak to the spread of disease-carrying marshmen throughout the city's sewers, but as they have now all been eaten these claims cannot be verified).

Locations of traditional significance include the Castle Library, structured within the walls of a former baronial fort, scientific curiosity the Seaman Museum, and St Patriarch's Church. The medieval ruins of the historic "Principality of Azuria", a former Celtic civilization, may also be seen scattered across various locations in the suburb.
