Junkyrd

The Ancient Leftovers, Repurposed

"Oah, Alry, so it ain't the fancyst o' places-
rih slop a' time, 'e is-
'but 'e ours."

-As much as anyone could make sense of Junkyrd's mayor

Junkyrd: Histry

As long has the Junkyrd has been, Junkyrd has been home. That's the history that has been passed down from family to family that oversees the Junkyrd's many districts. Anthropologists have been able to trace its history back thousands of years, perhaps even to the time of the Memoria themeslves. And even if not then, then shortly after they died off.
Because of this, the people of Junkyrd have a... unique understanding of Memoria technology. They are perhaps the only people outside of Dalreme's artificers who truly understand the secrets of the Mechanicals.

Junkyrd: Districts

Junkyrd is made up of five distinct districts, each based on whatever detritus the Memoria had left behind. Each District is run by a Head Family, whose name takes after their district.

VanDam
Home of the VanDam Resevoir that provides Jnkyrd with its water and power, VanDam is comprised of the Memoria's vehicular waste. Its people live in the many vehicles that dot the hillsides, butted up against the white delivery vans that make up VanDam Resevoir. VanDam is run by the Van family, who oversees all vehicular operations, power generation and the water supply.

BoxWood
BoxWood is Junkyrd's container and storage solution center. Many of Junkyrd's home are built here, out of the old scrap containers the Memoria left behind. All imports and exports to and from Junkyrd pass through BoxWood. BoxWood is run by the Box family, who oversee building construction, imports, and exports.

MulchMade
MulchMade is what passes for Junkyrd's agricultural district. The former fertilizer depot has been repurposed as fields for growing crops and raising animals. Of particular point of pride are the 'Boom Shrooms', which are useless in the culinary world but find infinite applications in clearing uninhabited areas of Junkyrd for habitation. The Mulch family oversees this district and its purpose in keeping Junkyrd fed.

ForgeStone
Forgestone is unique in that it does not provide the raw materials for Junkyrd's survival; rather, it takes the materials from each district and recycles, reforges, or flat-out repurposes it for new use. It is in the center of Junkyrd, and is also the home of the mayoral offices and community centers. the Forge family oversees all production in this district, although the Mayoral and government offices, such as they are, are considered neutral.

WashBin
WashBin is the industrial sector of Junkyrd; built out of the hundreds of miscellaneous tools that the Memoria threw away over their time as stewards of the Mortal Lands. If it can be made into a new tool, the Wash family can make it. They use the power created by the VanDam district to fufill their work keeping the rest of JunkYrd lit and operational.
