Background

Marlowe still came to the United States in the early 2000s, working as a mechanic on the west coast and then as part of the Army Corps of Engineers, then as an engineer of Yamagato Industries. It's right at the start of 2010, she's in New York when the Vanguard unleash the nuke and start their genocide of Evolved.

Her power is incredibly helpful in keeping her and others alive, where even currently she aids efforts to secure and protect those fleeing the war. The network starts off as a good samaritan effort. Soon, though, it becomes a full blown community that serves itself and protects its own, violently if need be.

Once the flood waters rise, Marlowe takes up the mantle of becoming a leader in the efforts of rebuilding. She runs a major business HQ hub from a harbor port built out from a skyscraper, where ship repair and shipbuilding is its main economy but there are other organizations and businesses allowed to operate nearby with a parlayed agreement. Her business, affectionately called 'Lowe's', is a common hotspot known as the go-to for everything one would need, so long as people don't bother the mafia syndicate Marlowe runs in the place.

Psych Profile

Marlowe's a fun, happy, optimistic individual. She loves being helpful and will gladly throw ideas about for any topic you'd like to discuss. She's always got a mind for building and loves a design challenge… and will absolutely wreck your shit if you cross her.

Evolved Ability

Not changed from the ability in Prime, only that her 'structural weakness' detection can be applicable to boats and ships a lot more, but still works on buildings and infrastructural type things. See Marlowe fix and build ships. Build, Marlowe, Build!

Lowe's HQ

The Location

• Geographical Location: The building formerly known as 40 Wall Street, The Pelago

• The Building: Lowe's headquarters encompasses the top floors of a skyscraper that has, thanks to Evolved abilities, scavenged materials, and blood, sweat and tears, survived the flood waters for several years. The upper floors belong to Marlowe, with her penthouse-like residence as well as a radio tower station. Mid floors house residences, extensive hydroponic farming tended to by agroculturists and people who like green thumbs, and other community spaces. The lower floors consist of the docks and warehouses.

The Syndicate

• The Syndicate: Marlowe heads a mafia-like organization here. Though the majority of the community is not a direct part, there's an understanding in place that the territory is hers, and they will utilize its resources for their benefit and defend it. Violently if need be.

The Community

• Make You Sweat: The majority of business conducted at Lowe's is shipbuilding and repair. Shipwrights, mechanics, engineers, and skilled laborers are all the rage here. If you're not afraid to get your hands dirty and feet wet, you're welcome to have a place here.

• Skill Share: Physical labor isn't the only thing in demand. Several skillsets are in demand. Education and academia, business negotiators, couriers with individual modes of transport, and more could all be offered in exchange for goods and services.

• Neighborhood Watch: The community has its own security force in the form of a militia and naval fleet. These people are veterans and their families, all survivors of war and the Vanguard, and don't tolerate threats to their well-being. That said, the community welcomes those who seek peace, aid and shelter.

• Weapons Policy: Weapons are allowed and expected in almost all zones of Lowe's. Areas that have hazmat obviously are off-limits for firearms. It's not uncommon to see someone carrying a bladed weapon. Private businesses and residences are allowed to restrict or require peace-bonding weapons in their space - unless Marlowe has said otherwise.

• Underbelly: Remember kid, crime doesn't pay. Unless Marlowe gets a cut.
