Nixbank is a suburb of Malton, located in the south-west of the city.
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 nrtheast. 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 historic significance include the Castle Library, built inside the walls of a former baronial fort, scientific curiosity the Seaman Museum, and St Patriarch's Church.

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
