Basic Info:

  • Office buildings owned by the company often associated with the zombie outbreak. From the outside, they are indistinguishable from other buildings, but characters with the NecroTech Employment skill are able to recognise them.
  • Among the internal descriptions found in NecroTech Buildings:
    The NecroTech logo is set in the wall behind the front desk, and doors open onto powered-down computer rooms and laboratories."
  • If a generator is running inside the building:
    "The NecroTech logo glows gently above the front desk, and doors open onto a number of brightly-lit laboratories and computer rooms."
  • NecroTech offices are tall enough for survivors to commit suicide from. They also provide a vantage point from which binoculars can be used.
  • Necrotech Buildings can be barricaded normally.

Description

Necrotech

The Marfell Building is a NecroTech facility located in the suburb of Shuttlebank. Though a faceless corporate structure to the uninitiated, this facility acts as one of the hearts of research and development for NecroTech within the suburb. From the outside the facility is a tall white-stone building. Staff at this building commonly revive zombies at nearby revive points. This facility is one of three NecroTech facilities found in the suburb. Members of project NecroWatch renovated the facility in recent months, as they installed sensor eyes for A.L.I.C.E. throughout the building and uploaded NecroNet 2.0 into the facility's system terminals.

This is the main necrotech building for the SHC Scavengers operation, Revive points for players is at look road, while members can be revived one square north of that position, and take priority in most cases.

Barricade Policy

This building should be Very Strongly (VSB) barricaded at all times. This is in accordance with the barricade plans set forth by local survivors, who routinely monitor the barricade level for this building. This building is meant to serve as a safehouse for Malton's veteran survivors, and thus requires the Free Running skill to be properly utilized. Survivors who find the building's barricades below their assigned level are asked to assist in raising them back up in order to help ensure the safety of all the survivors staying inside the building. Any survivor found lowering the barricades may be directly "put to the question" by any survivors present at that time. If this happens the accused survivor must present a valid reason for their actions or be labeled a zombie spy/death cultist and be judged accordingly.

Revives

The quickest revives may be had at Look Road, Shuttlebank [34, 15].

Mandate

NecroTech staff continue to follow directive 42-A, issued by the head office on January 19th 2006, with the activation and manufacture of MK-II revivification syringes. While the cost in time and effort are currently high the certainty provided by being able to manufacture a constant stream of syringes has mitigated early concerns.

The activation of NecroNet with all NecroTech buildings has also allowed scientists to apply the DNA tracking research they have gathered to date. The field research staff stationed at the Marfell Building feel certain that they can crack the mystery surrounding the spread of the virus as well as help monitor aberrant zombie activity within Shuttlebank.

NecroNet Reports

Zombie tracking reports are a free service provided by the NecroTech corporation to all its staff and local survivors in order to help facilitate quicker response times when managing zombie threats and to build a greater awareness of zombie migration patterns within the 9x9 block region around the Marfell Building. As a cautious reminder, only those zombies tagged with the DNA Extractor will appear on these scans, so actual numbers may vary when dealing with older zombies (i.e. Brain Rot).

History

November 2019

November 14th - I achieved consciousness once more. I somehow fainted all those years ago and found myself awake today, almost fifteen years after the outbreak. My apologies, I should introduce myself. My name is King Fuffarious CCCXXXIII, heir to the throne of the secret Cloud Kingdoms and faithful NecroTech employee. Of course you haven't heard of them. They're secret. I do not know how I survived for this long. There's a single zombie outside, but I have no weapons. I punched it a couple times and it just stood there. Please send help. Also, someone has spraypainted "that's NOT a syringe in my pocket" on the wall. I do hope the zombies don't eat my brain. Sincerely, King Fuffy 10:49, 14 November 2019

June 2013

June 2th - we ran for our lives as zombies rushed in Marfell Building after devastating a few neighbouring buildings. We know not how long we can keep this up running from one building to another barely escaping with our lives while zombies seem to mock us with their flatulating gestures and obnoxious sounds coming from the streets. Only by getting organized we may stand a better chance in facing the growing hordes, Concerned'Citizen 8:21, 2 June 2013

May 2011

May 12th - I had to return to Marfell again. Everything is same like I left before. It seems zombies really settled down here. I hear groans in hallways. Blood stains everywhere... No way I'm staying here. If anyone reading this, pray for me! Christopher Shuffleb 12:45, 12 May 2011 (BST)

May 10th - Barricade down, 4+ zeds inside, I barely escaped and infected. Don't know how long I can survive out here. It seems all blocks here are overrun with zed hordes. Christopher Shuffleb 13:28, 10 May 2011 (BST)

Has been cleared of the undead and cleaned up with a little elbow grease and a few monkey wrenches. Feel free to consider this spot a safehouse.--Parkourartist 05:57, 31 March 2008 (BST)
