How did Dream City get started? Who’s idea was this?

how it began

it all started with dallas

Dream City was meant to be the legacy of the world’s first trillionaire, Dallas Faraday. Faraday, like many people at the end of the 22nd century, believed there was no viable way to save Earth from the slow-moving environmental collapse decimating the planet. His solution to the unfolding environmental disaster was to terraform the Moon to build a shining new set of utopian cities.  

Despite his considerable wealth, Faraday needed investors to fund the massive project. As proof of idea, he decided to build a prototype city in California, close to the post-collapse remains of Fresno. He had to prove that not only was his terraforming plan viable but that he could produce self-sustaining cities that would appease the rabid pro-environmental lobbies that emerged after the first mass death events. The first settlers of Dream City came because of the promise of one day living in their city on the moon, and a chance to be part of a grand experiment that might save humanity.

Only three years into the project, Faraday suffered a massive heart attack and died. Multiple generations of trusted advisors have been running Dream City since. Lunara unofficially controls and owns Dream City. Some believe Faraday’s consciousness was uploaded from his deathbed and was meant to remain in charge of big decisions in Dream City, but there are many skeptics.  The actions of Lunara since Faraday’s death (and especially recent initiatives) seem to point to this not being true, as the company has seemingly abandoned Faraday’s dream of the moon becoming humanity’s savior and second home.

Dream City is the world’s first gigacity, with a population beyond 100 million residents.  As Faraday developed and refined the early plans for the city, he purposefully built high-density housing and efficient infrastructure.  The current population, however, far exceeds the initial plans, which capped the number of residents at around 50 million.

Often seen as an unpredictable leader who flourished by following his intuition, Dallas Faraday started his infamous moon mining company, Lunara, with the bulk of the fortune he made through trading crypto. As with many of his business decisions that seemed destined for failure at the time, critics and supporters alike were left to wonder how he could have predicted Lunara’s eventual discovery—that the Moon contained hidden deposits of silicon.  

But even this momentous news was unknown when he gave his fateful interview to Tess Logan and found the perfect location for Dream City, an idea he seemingly had during the interview. The video of the pair driving through the desolate landscape of former Fresno, CA racked up billions of views. The public loved and loved to mock the eccentric, robe-wearing tech mogul and his crazy idea to build ships in the middle of nowhere.

Months after the interview, Lunara announced they had found enough silicon to power all the solar cells, batteries, and computers needed to slow the ecological collapse taking place on earth. These deposits, located only inches below the surface of several unremarkable craters, had avoided detection for centuries, and allowed Faraday to become the world’s first Trillionaire and see his Dream City break ground.

Tragically, Faraday suffered a massive heart attack just weeks from the completion of the sixth, and final, TRIP. While it would be years until the ships were ready to launch, Dallas had planned to move into the penthouse of the newly built ship.

The story of Faraday Technologies, Dream City, and Faraday’s unexpected death, have long caused comparisons to be drawn between Faraday and Walt Disney.

Since [REDACTED], BC34 has reigned as the largest news organization in the US, and currently controls the majority of mass media consumed by the western world. The corporation started as an unassuming online publication, Pub34, whose articles were typically only linked to and read by individuals interested in fringe conspiracy forums.

However, due to civil unrest in the 2030’s, they quickly grew into a popular news source—one known for a folksy, grassroots approach—and rebranded as BC34.  The new network and then-reporter, Tess Logan, were both launched to fame after conducting an unforgettable interview with a young Dallas Faraday.

Aka Group was founded in the late 2020’s, originally making equipment for cameras and image recognition. They are now the leader in cybernetics, visual saugs, and various wetware. Their rise to prominence started when they invented cybernetic optics with customizable eyes, down to the pupil shape. It has recently been speculated that Aka Group is poised to buy its largest competitor, Lunara.

Shiro Aya, the company’s current CEO, rose through the ranks at record speed, and is responsible for much of the brand’s current popularity. Upon being named CEO she struck a 5-year deal to have the pop star celebrity, Celeste, exclusively wear and promote their flagship line of designer eyes.  

In addition to their fashion optic devices, Aka also makes high-end consumer models that increase the user’s spectrum of visible light and increase scan speed. Beyond the consumer markets, Aka has recently started collaborating with mil-tech companies for augmentation, visors, and scopes that can flip through different types of visual enhancements.

Dallas Faraday started his infamous moon mining company, Lunara, with the bulk of the fortune he made through trading crypto. The company came to prominence after announcing it had found badly needed—and valuable—silicon in several Moon craters.

Currently run by Lindon Faraday, one of Dallas’ great-nephews, the business has changed dramatically under his leadership. While mining operations still occur, Lunara is now largely known for it’s hostile buyouts of smaller competitors, which have turned it into a global force. These days, the company has its hand in everything—pharmaceuticals, real estate, finance, augmentation tech, and, if you believe the rumors, all kinds of sordid underground endeavors.

Founded by Dallas Faraday in [REDACTED], the company was initially focused on designing, manufacturing, and launching the skyscraper sized ships (TRIPs) intended to transport hundreds of thousands of colonists to the moon.  To facilitate development, a variety of shell companies were used to purchase swaths of real estate just outside of Fresno, California. The newly purchased land was then used as the site of the (theoretically) temporary Dream City, which was meant to be both employee housing and launch pad.

CEO and founder of Faraday Technologies, Dallas Faraday, served as chairman of Dream City and oversaw the massive endeavor up until his untimely death in [REDACTED].  The company merged with Lunara in [REDACTED] when plans for the Moon city were publicly abandoned.

While not quite a gang or a cult, they come close to both. Goons can usually be found in their makeshift gym/clubs, lifting things that should never be attempted by normal people and downing power-milkshakes that would make a normal person gag just from the smell. They often run underground and illegal boxing clubs and make pretty good hired muscle if you have the money to pay them. Most of them look more like a gorilla than a human due to an illegal combination of drugs and genetic augmentation.

One Doom Roller is a handful but can be managed. Get two or three of them coming at you, and it’s usually best to run. Due to their insane nature, expect a change in leadership every few months.
