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 traditional significance include the Castle Library, built inside 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.
