Quarlesbank's History

The suburb of Quarlesbank is surrounded in a rich history. During the late 19th Century Pitman mansion was founded within the suburb, however no-one was able to predict how much this structure would change the rest of the suburb forever. Once the owners of the mansion moved in, they immediately set out to reform Quarlesbank's image to a new industrial powerhouse, which would act as a benchmark for the north of Malton to follow. However this idea was met with fierce resistance after the 4 warehouses were found to be dumping harmful waste into Quarlesbank's environment and in River Kevan. This stopped any form of building for over 50 years through the local resident's feelings towards the Pitman family. However, in the early 1960's Lord Pitman was declared rightful heir to the mansion and inherited a huge fortune, which he was going to use to follow his parents dream and turn Quarlesbank into their dream. At this moment in time Pitman was relatively young and hence did not have the experience to understand the complex history which determined what was built in the suburb. His first venture was building a factory in the south of the suburb. Fearing that this would be a repeat of what had happened in the past, Lord Pitman was soon visited by many local residents unwilling to see their homes be polluted like they were before. Sensing a quick defeat, Lord Pitman stated that instead of factories and warehouses he, himself would aid in building structures which would benefit the suburb. Unfortunately due to his parent's past he was restricted from doing any work which involved constructing buildings on empty land blocks, so instead he decided to change his parent's wastelands into paved over areas for further developments.

In November 1966 Lord Pitman's image had reached a state of equilibrium with the local residents, however this was not enough for him to gain permission to build anything. So during a local Mayoral election he visited one of the parties, which suddenly increased its advertising from what can only be described as a 'huge influx of funds from an unknown source'. Eventually this party secured its place as Mayor and then decided to improve Quarlesbank's tarnished public image through a series of new buildings. The first of these was The Elson Building, which was designed by contempory architects, making it one of the most popular buildings in the suburb. This building was lergely disliked by Lord Pitman throughout all of its building and subsequent opening period. Local residents believe this popularity is due to the fact that Lord Pitman resented it and hence, given his past, it was seen as a beacon of the local's triumph in defying the wealthiest landowner in the uppermost north of Malton. A rich history can be found when looking on this building, which involves much of the suburb and Lord Pitman. In the past it has given many locals (and non locals alike) an interesting story about the events which led up to the area's current status and it's intertwined history with Lord Pitman. it is hoped that any visitors of local inhabitant will look upon it then make an informed judgment from that.

Finally during the last few decades before 'The Malton Incident', Calvert Mall was built to act as a centre of tourism for Quarlesbank and the neighboring suburbs. It was one of the last buildings to be made in Quarlesbank and is seen as a place where survivors can socialise freely and work together for a common cause. This idea has subsequently made its way across the suburb throughout this current 'situation', and is currently accepted and practiced by many of the suburb's pro-survivor groups, including the groups which inhabit Pitman Mansion and The Elson Building, making them safe for survivors to inhabit for as long as they see fit. These local groups as well as many of the local people in Quarlesbank have cleaned up the suburb's tarnished image, as was wanted 4 decades ago.

September 16^th

The saga continues as the Battle for Quarlesbank heats up yet again with a renewed Beerhah invasion led by the Know Nothings reinforcing the struggling Quarlesbank defense forces. Calvert Mall is holding against a growing zombie siege while the northern NT run has been barricaded against constant Extinction attacks the most recent of which reduced the QBH contingent inside Haslock NT by half. Residents are advised to take the usual quarantine measures as the feral zombie population is expected to keep growing, drawn by the increasingly loud groans emanating from the suburb. --Zeug 08:37, 16 September 2008 (BST)

September 13^th

Military Report: "... can see about sixty on the streets of Quarlesbank ... mostly just small groups ... several buildings with power ... serious collateral damage ... Calvert Mall is being held ... the Balchin Building has fallen ..." --Zeug 17:40, 13 September 2008 (BST)

September 11^th

Quarlesbanks long troubles seem to be easing due to the incredible tenacity of local survivor groups and thier refusal to be beaten by Extinction. Contrary to rumours, most resource buildings are well barricaded and there are few zombies active in the suburb. However, Extinction hit squads remian active and the continued siege has also left survivor numbers low. Reinforcments are needed to continue the expansion and make this suburb the happy well lit and safe suburb it once was--Silent badger 18:38, 12 September 2008 (BST)

September 10^th

The Survivor cause continues to suffer setbacks in Quarlesbank as Extinction forces retain the initiative. Shortages of fuel, firearms, medical supplies and Necrotech needles continue to thwart Survivor attempts to take and hold ground. With mounting Survivor casualties in the face of Extinction strikes against the Elson Building and Wilmott Hotel, the future of the Survivor reclamation efforts in the absence of outside reinforcements seems quite grim indeed. Naelok 08:30, 10 September 2008 (BST)

September 8^th

Extinction Troops continue to fight the stubborn survivor resistance across the town with a major break in at the recently rebarricaded Haslock NT resulting in a QBH massacre that is ongoing as we speak. The rest of the northern NT run remains ruined although the Elson Building Caretakers and the Shed are retaining a tenuous hold on their HQ's. Reports are also coming in of a major survivor offensive aimed at reclaiming Calvert Mall. --Zeug 06:58, 8 September 2008 (BST)

September 3^rd

The slow, labourous rebuild of this great suburb has once again been hit hard by the massing zombie hordes. Many of the recently retaken buildings now lay ruined, with the ever defiant survivor groups that frequent the Willmott Motel once again at the heart of the struggle. Though Quarlesbank is still in a state of perpetual battle, survivors in hiding are urged to make themselves known to the cause.--Biff Chitts 11:37, 3 September 2008 (BST)

August 28^th

External Military: "... about sixty in Quarlesbank ... mostly just small groups ... can't see any signs of life ... it's a wasteland down there ... the Balchin Building has fallen - repeat, the Balchin Building has fallen ..." Laitaine 22:36, 28 August 2008 (BST)

August 25^th

Fierce fighting erupted across north Quarlesbank over the last few days as the Elson Phone Mast Building Caretakers, QBH and Shed arrived back in force only to find Extinction Troops ready and waiting to receive their newly revived brains. The zombie response was quick, ghastly and devastating. Quarlesbank remains dead for the time being.--Zeug 10:40, 25 August 2008 (BST)

August 20^th

MCDU forces remain lurking within the city as Operation Jack-in-the-Box begins to reclaim Quarlesbank from the hordes, reclamation will begin once reinforcements arrive. -- EchelonThree 12:14, 20 August 2008 (BST)

News of a renewed MCDU counter attack after their recent spectacular defeat at the claws of Extinction has residents dancing in the streets with joy. Unfortunately dancing in the open in Quarlesbank can be very dangerous to one's health and several grisly deaths have already been reported. Meanwhile Extinction zombies are congregating around the recently refurbished Shed HQ at the Wilmott Hotel in an apparent effort to nip any new barricading in the bud. --Zeug 16:35, 20 August 2008 (BST)

August 14^th

In an orgy of brain eating simply far too horrible to describe Extinction Troops and mobs of feral zombies descended on the Wilmott Hotel and tore the last remaining Quarlesbank defense force apart ... limb from screaming limb. Benedict's Hospital and the Balchin NT have also been ruined as fair Quarlesbank, apparently abandoned by the MCDU, succumbs to the undead epidemic. All remaining residents are advised that the town is now under emergency quarantine with the only safe haven in the entire NW of Malton directly west through the Boundwoods to Yagoton. --Zeug 19:13, 14 August 2008 (BST)

August 12^th

The red tide seems to be turning as Calvert Mall remains ruined along with Haslock, Evett and Milnerr NT's, Augarde PD and the Elson Caretakers HQ. The Wilmott Hotel defenders remain defiant in the face of the zombie onslaught and are maintaining Benedict's Hospital against constant ransacks. In the town's north west sector desperate survivors have retreated from the ruins to the Balchin NT, the last remaining functional NT in far NW Malton. --Zeug 11:00, 12 August 2008 (BST)

August 8^th

If any of these groups are still active, please add them again.

August 7^th

Local zombies and Extinction have liberated Calvert Mall and cleansed the mall of survivors, although some survivors escaped.This is a major step toward total Quarlesbank destruction.--HeliosGemini 22:14, 7 August 2008 (BST)

August 6^th

Errata: Residents should be advised that the MCDU claim that "Major NT buildings in surrounding suburbs remain firmly in MCDU control" is factually incorrect if heading west, south west or south east due to ongoing zombie infections. The town's southern and eastern neighbours are of course without NT's and at the moment Balchin, Evett and Haslock NT's are ruined making Milnerr NT the only functional NT in the far NW. If seeking a fast revive the closest fully functional NT outside of the town limits is Style in Yagoton. We apologise for any inconvenience. --Zeug 04:43, 6 August 2008 (BST)

August 4^th

Localized zombie resistance (mostly Extinction)remains steady in the face of increasing MCDU raids, the Evett building being a major bone of contention and changing hands regularly. Today it was reclaimed by MCDU forces. Major NT buildings in surrounding suburbs remain firmly in MCDU control as a Secondary RP. The barricades at Calvert have been stable with few, if any breaches. -- EchelonThree 10:46, 4 August 2008 (BST)

August 3^rd

The Battle for Quarlesbank has entered its sixth week with the northern NT free run still under pressure. Evett NT remains ruined, Balchin NT was recently reclaimed and Haslock NT is under zombie siege. Extinction Troops continue to fight the strong MCDU presence across the town with regular barricade breaches at Calvert Mall and St Benedicts Hospital. --Zeug 19:27, 3 August 2008 (BST)
