Ground Dweller

Nomad is a wanderer in the new era’s desert in North America. He is a wanted criminal in all three major settlements, and is also being hunted down by the Fade, bounty hunters who track and kill people from the past era. The crimes he commited is unknown to all major characters, even Nomad. The reason he is currently being hunted is due to the fact that he was born in the Past Era and managed to survive the calamity and ended up in the current era, about 150 years into the future.
Nomad’s real name is Reign, having his last name forgotten when he reached the current era. In the past, he was a guitarist in a dead-end Metalcore band, with no motivation to continue doing small gigs at bars in the slums.
The night of his planned final performance with the band, he went on the small stage to find that everything was silent. The crowd did not mutter a sound, the glasses did not clang, and the amps did not hum. Life stood still as he stood there, confused. He dropped his guitar and ran outside, seeing that the world beneath him suddenly started to fall.
The world faded to black as the world remained silent. When he awoke, there was sand. The streets of a dark city replaced by dunes sculpted by the wind, copper and tin monuments, and small dead shrubs burried into the ground.
He wishes to stop the Fade, and save the others who were lost during the calamity, and bring peace to these lands. But, this dream was shifted when he met a kid, a kid named "Wanderer".
