Points of Interest[]
- Badlands
- The Badlands is an arid and desolate region of Missouri of the mid 21st century. Due to the terraforming efforts of the alien invaders known as the Votans, this region was turned into a vast desert with little vegetation, though there were meager forests to be found the further one traveled into the mountains. The Badlands was known for its frequent occurrences of Arkfall and nomadic raiders and scavengers would brave the tough environment in the hopes of laying claim to some valuable Votan tech. (Defiance: Pilot (Part 1))
- Camp Reverie
- Camp Reverie is a prison camp located six miles east of the town of Defiance. It was established and maintained by the Earth Republic and is charged with incarcerating prisoners of various crimes including misdemeanors up to political prisoners and assassins. The camp is run like a livery stable with all of the prisoners herded into tight-fitting quarters. Food distribution consists of buckets of slop being poured over a common area, leaving the inmates scrambling to scoop up whatever they can. The perimeter and upper gangplanks are manned by E-Rep guards armed with cattle prods to keep the prisoners in line. The prisoners do receive visitation rights from loved ones, but there is a strict policy against physical contact. Former mayor, Datak Tarr was incarcerated at Camp Reverie for the murder of E-Rep officer Colonel Galen Marsh. The Indogene physician Doc Yewll was likewise imprisoned at Camp Reverie for failing to cooperate with the Earth Republic during their search for Irisa Nyira.
- Cedars
- Cedars is an industrial city in North America, located 150 miles to the southeast of Defiance. Upon retiring in 2046, Mayor Nicolette Riordon told her successor Amanda Rosewater that she was going to go visit a sister in Cedars. (Defiance: Pilot (Part 1))
