General Info
The Portal Camp is a frontier town with a population of about 3000. The Delegations number a couple of hundred people from each Faction, and the Portal Camp contains roughly double that number of Guild professionals, sailors, fortune-seekers and so on. It has been set up over the last 6 months before the start of the game, following the discovery of the Portal on Mat Sellah.
The Containment Zone
The Portal is something of a misnomer, as it is not a door into the Beyond so much as an area where the barrier between the Beyond and the world is thinned. All portals have a wide area where the barrier is weak, and a centre where it is virtually non-existent.
The Containment Zone was set up at the apparent centre of the Portal, or at least where the first Agents observed the most Stranger Activity and supernatural phenomena. While the Portal Camp was being developed to secure the general area, the Containment Zone was set up to restrict access until all Factions had established a presence in the Camp.
The NFNC campaign starts on the week during which the Containment Zone is re-opened to selected Faction Agents.
The Dispatch
A free newspaper jointly produced by the Explorer Church and Guild of Caravaneers. Characters may submit articles, but the Church of Explorer rejects anonymous ones or obvious pseudonyms on principle.
