Factions

Lawful Evil Farms- The Lawful Evil farmers were the first to begin agriculture within the warehouse, and zealously guard the secrets of their success. In the beginning, they were led by Gravefather Nito before they walled themselves off from the rest of the store. Their tactics were cruel and calculating as the early farms that rivaled their success were razed and salted. Eventually Gravefather Nito and his ilk fell into obscurity. It is unknown for how long they existed behind their walls but when they were finally breached there was no trace of the Lawful Evil Farmers. Rumors say that James Joyce knows what happened to them but he has neither confirmed nor denied such rumors. A single cryptic message was left in a cloistered corner of their holdings. It simply read "Friends." The lands the Farmers once held are currently up for grabs but some denizens claim the area to be haunted by the Farmers. None have set up permanent residence in the location as of yet.

Pharmacia- An unrecognized state, High Alchemist James Joyce seeks to unite the masters of hermetic pharmacy into a major political power

Greater /tg/- The largest faction, Greater /tg/ has claimed control of vast tracts of land from the borders of LE to the bakery and freezer. They have the largest militia, though many of their citizens devote the majority of their time to gaming, limiting their capacity as a martial threat.

Organizations

The Mining Corps- Each settlement has their own Mining Corps, though the mines of Greater /tg/ have dug the deepest and most stable tunnels. Many refugees have taken to living in the tunnels, as the dank and dirty conditions mimic their homes before "Housefall."

Adventurer's Guild- The adventurer's guild is for rejects the militias wouldn't take. They seek exorbitant bounties for even the most trivial of tasks, and are really just a social club for outcasts looking to make a quick buck or not drink alone. There are a few exceptions, however, such as Ross 60, the magic player.

Palletanisim- A church worshiping the bountiful pallets and thanking the god of the store for its benevolence, they provide spiritual therapy for the citizens of Greater /tg/. Their chapel looks like an amalgamation of child-play house parts, scaffolding, and duct tape. A testament to the bounty the store provides.

High Council of the Intellects- The "government" of Greater /tg/, these "Intellects" squabble amongst themselves while the military does the majority of governing. They're struggling for leadership even as the populace clamors for law and order.

Locations

The Staff Rooms- Largely uninhabited or unused, this area may be annexed by the Alchemists of the pharmacy

Dreadfortress Chex- Rumors abound of a foreboding castle made from cereal boxes in between the frozen foods and chip isles. Members of the Adventurer's guild and Mining Corps. often go missing when foraging for food in the area.

Characters

Gravefather Nito - The founder of the Lawful Evil Farms. Disliked by many of the other residents of the store for his wicked streak and general dickery. It is currently unknown what happened to he and his followers.

High Alchemist James Joyce- leader of Pharmacia

Duke of the Dispensery Ernest Hemmingway- Duke of Pharmacia. Resident Alchemist, controls massive weed stash.

Ross 60- an amicable magic player, and sometimes adventurer. Generally well liked.

The Chex King- a madman wearing boxes, the Chex king may be nothing more than a fable to keep scavengers from straying too far into the aisles.

The Shadow Cock- "Trap" assassin. Claims to have exotic good from other warehouses. Questionable, but undyingly loyal to /tg/

Inquisitorial Librarian- A former warlord from the Freezer section, he has lent his tactical expertise to Greater /tg/. His armored fortress has become their garrison, though he's in a constant furor over people leaving the door open.

/toy/ Anon - Traitor to his former home, well-versed in their customs and eager to secure peace within /tg/'s borders. Bitterly camps among the action figures. Magic player, D&D-curious.

Tiger Lily - A mysterious druid living in the mists of the Garden section.

Cerebrate Anon - An intense farmer, he seems uninterested in greater politics compared with the logistics of keeping the colony alive. He doesn't demand leadership, but his deadpan criticisms cut deep whenever a leader's plans would endanger the colony.

Sweet Soul Bro- A lieutenant in the militia, Soul Bro vocally opposes the council's attempts to curtail defense spending.

This is very similar in concept to the 4Chan Archipelago (http://1d4chan.org/wiki/4chan_Archipelago).
