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 Pankhurst Building is a NecroTech facility located in the suburb of Molebank. Though a faceless corporate structure to the uninitiated, this facility acts as the heart of viral mutation research for NecroTech within the suburb. This facility is one of six NecroTech facilities found in the suburb. The Pankhurst Building was built in 1987 as an office building for a lobby group. It was named after Emmeline Pankhurst, who was one of the founders of the British suffragette movement. In 1990, the lobby group closed office, and the building was sold to the NecroTech Corporation as one of the first branches in Malton. It was a research facility of little note before the outbreak. In the early days of the outbreak, the Pankhurst Building was used more, largely as a testing facility to do research on the recently risen undead. The test subjects, however, escaped form the isolation cells they had been locked in, and promptly devoured all found in the area. These zombies are usually credited with the spread of the virus to western Malton, which experienced the effects of the virus much later than the east.

Now, the Pankhurst Building fall inside of the Dunell Hills Military Zone, and is designated as a fallback point for the DHPD Dixie Squad. It also serves as the NecroTech facility primarily responsible for revives inside of the Molebank area. It is not a very safe location, however, as the ferals in the area are frequently attracted to this building, and it only remains powered for a short amount of time. Any survivors in the area looking ot hold it are advised to exercise extreme caution.

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.

A fun fact is that the Pankhurst Building is named after renowned British suffragette who campagined for women's suffrage and rights in mid 1800's and early 1900's.[1]

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 Pankhurst Building feel certain that they can crack the mystery surrounding the spread of the virus as well as help monitor aberrant zombie activity within Molebank.

Barricade Policy

This building should be Extremely Heavily (EH) 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.

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 Pankhurst 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).
