Camino and Jay (Mii-May at the very start) are Hunter-Scavengers who discover sentient Gawth lurking south of their city in the ancient and derelict city of Sacramento. Camino and Jay must exploit the world to their advantage in order to survive and unravel the mystery of the sentient Gawth while at the same time discovering the truth about Camino and the world they live in. The story introduces factions that have divided up post-apocalyptic California, a hunter-scavenger-cyborg with on onboard AI that operates under its own set of ethics, and a menagerie of creatures and beasties that mutated from our original California stock to add thrill and adventure to Camino's world. After all, what good is an apocalypse if you can't have fun with it?
