Day of Dusk: The Border

Sandingo: Despite being much smaller than Roseweld, is still a stable settlement that is going strong. While some predict it will eventually be completely overshadowed by the larger settlements such as Roseweld and Jokumbia and eventually collapse, it is currently alive and healthy primarily because of its position between the three largest mining locations of Fort Poliax, Rockstar Mines, and Zone-14.

Raiders Bunker: The Tarsadan "Raiders" Bunker is a pre-war nuclear bunker that was founded by the AEGIS Cooperation. Formally, it is called AEGIS International Bunker 34-B, however after AEGIS abandoned it it was reclaimed by raiders and renamed to the International Raiders Bunker. The bunker now serves as a headquarters for wastelanders and a rare weapon shop for wastelanders. The bunker is located close to the VTOL Crash Site, inside a boarded up cave with some of the only greenery left in the wasteland.

Zone-14: Arguably one of the most dangerous place in the entire map, Zone-14 is a place of much mystery. It is highly radioactive, and without the right equipment, you can last only a few seconds. However, after buying a Civilian Grade Respirator and a filter from Roseweld, wastelanders are prepared to dive into the Zone full of mysteries and dangers lurking in Zone 14 because it was originated as a research bunker, and mining site for the AEGIS Corporation, Zone-14 has long been abandoned due to enormous radiation levels created after the second and third resource war.

Smuggler's Hideout: a location commonly used by raiders to hide away and illegally print scrap and credits using printers. The hideout is found in a leaning tower outside the Roseweld settlement which can be entered via a tunnel behind the Behelium Powerplant.

Helvarna Caverns: a massive set of caves and mines located near Jokeumbia that extend into Fort Poliax. The caves are home to some of the rarest resources located within the wasteland around AEGIS outside of Zone 14. The caves are generally seen as dangerous due to their labyrinth-like structure and occasional collapses. Despite all of this, many raiders have and still use the caves to gather resources and make a profit.

Rockstar Volcano: The caves had a different name at one point, a much more militarized and numerical one, back when it was just another mine that AEGIS used to extract more mundane resources and even some less than ordinary like uranium. Although not as commonly found. Very early on in AEGIS’s life, these mines were just that. A mine. Although after some time had passed, closer to when the war began, the miners had stumbled upon something rather… odd. Many reports of the uncomfortable working conditions within the mines had been made. The heat was the main complaint. When they figured out what had caused such an issue, two things quickly happened. First, AEGIS halt the cave usage as a mine for safety reasons, and second, a geothermal reactor was built to create renewable energy to sustain their border.

Ye’ Old Town of Roseweld: Itreferred to as “Roseweld”, is currently the largest active settlement, and the second largest overall settlement in the AEGIS Wasteland. It's a prime hub for traders, raiders, miners, and most wastelanders in general. It contains multiple shops, some of which sell suspiciously dangerous items, most of which were gathered from crates scattered across the wasteland or seized from AEGIS raids.

The Wasteland contains many locations, each with different mysteries and secrets.

Fort Poliax: is a popular wasteland location which is commonly used for trade. Fort Poliax is moderately large and contains three major points; the lower, middle, and upper area. Fort Poliax was founded not too long after the AEGIS border was founded, for the use of being a trading outpost rather than a fully fledged border. Fort Poliax is the main hub of the wasteland for trading, and also houses a small number of wastelanders and current day traders. Fort Poliax is also equipped with a large radio tower for daily transmissions from survivors outside the area.

Behelium Robotics Research Outpost: is an abandoned technology research center located near the Roseweld settlement. The structure is fairly empty, but contains a few crates and a closed-off room that requires a battery to open. The area itself is fenced off, although such fencing is severely damaged, allowing for ease of access.

Jokeumbia Regional Mall: Jokeumbia is a Special Classification Settlement on the farside of the wasteland from the Border. Despite its notable size and reputation as a large settlement, very few wastelanders arrive there anymore. Jokeumbia has a notable, important history, and is a major landmark in the wasteland outside of the Border.

VTOL Crash Site: Somewhere in the wasteland, an AV-585 "Warrior II" crash site (also simply called the VTOL Crash Site) is the current location of the AV-585's remains. Warrior II was known to stop responding to contact at 15:41 GMT time on 8/5/2171, however it is unknown when exactly the VTOL crashed.

Motto: "Trained to Last"

The AEGIS Engineering Division (also known by their abbreviation "AED") is AEGIS International's primary technical and maintenance team, responsible for ensuring critical technology upholds its functionality, and providing support and equipment to the many colleagues reliant on it. They act as the facilities backbone, working alongside the many divisionals to strengthen their efforts, and keep the facility running. They work with many of AEGIS International's most critical pieces of machinery, such as its on-site fedoratomic reactor, the many lifts and electrical systems around the facility, and the many complex pieces of research equipment, utilized by the AEGIS Research Division.

They also work to manufacture and provide AEGIS personnel with essential and useful pieces of equipment, may it be critical for their divisional duties, or a significantly more powerful weapon, providing strengthened offense in combat.

AED personnel wear specialized combatics in order to aid in their tasks. AED has two combatics, the AED-PPE (AED Personal Protective Equipment) and ARC Hazardous Environment Suit which is similar to ARD Biohazard Combatics.

AED-PPE has a Light Protection Carrier Vest and minimal radiation resistance. This armor is intended for basic repair tasks around the border and general duties around the border including the Reactor.

The AED ARC Hazardous Environment Suit has a Heavy Torso Protection Vest (2nd highest only to PKSF). This armor is intended for wasteland expeditions, facility defense, hazardous areas or dangerous duties but was implemented due to AED targeted by Hostiles Raiders to cause more problems towards AEGIS International.

Motto: "Technology at its Finest"

The AEGIS Research Division, also known by their abbreviation "ARD", is the science division within AEGIS, their primary responsibility being dealing with infections. their duties include:

Curing any infected on-site personnel and wastelanders. Controlling outbreaks. Researching and testing various infectious diseases. Scanning individuals to ensure they are clear of infections using the Infection Scanner / Advanced Infection Scanner Bin duties. Trading with wastelanders for Fedorium Batteries, Fedorium Minicores and Fedoralite Ore. Maintaining the border's on-site reactor

These combatics feature a mask that grants all ARD members immunity to HC-191-B/Stone Cancer. The scientist combatics give personnel wearing them Field Protection Vest without any sort of head protection helmet, however, During outbreaks, ARD personnel wear the Bio-Hazard Combatics to further reduce the risk of infection, rendering ARD immune to all known diseases except FF-899-A. The Bio-Hazard Combatics features a gas mask and oxygen tank. Those wearing the Bio-Hazard Combatics also make a constant breathing noise until the combatics are taken off. The Bio-Hazard Combatics give personnel wearing them Special Tactical Protection Vest.

Extra note; ARD holds the highest amount of authority during Infection and Evacuation protocols, currently with authority right under HiCOM. All AEGIS are to follow ALL orders given. TTS, MRT and SAU are all made to assist ARD in the completion of their duties due to the severe importance of their duties. Many of the technologies across the site were created by ARD, those include the PKSF Shield, On-site Reactor, DEW weapons and more. Of all seven divisions, ARD remains the 2nd most classified due to their heavy connections with infections and dangerous items researched.

Motto: "In an Unsecure World Protection"

The Peacekeeper Special Forces, also known as "PKSF", is AEGIS' dedicated force for protection of high value targets as well as general combative operations. The Peacekeeper Special Forces have a wide range of duties, some of them being:

Ensuring that all Deputy Commissioner+ Overwatch command group+, and any designated VIPs are well guarded from danger. Assisting the AEGIS Research Division in outbreaks and other functions when necessary. Assisting the Masked Delta Force, Specially Trained Hitman Division, AEGIS Research Division, and Standard AEGIS personnel in wasteland security or expeditions. Filling in posts during personnel shortages such as doing bin duties. Ensuring the general defense and security of the facility when no other duties take priority.

The Peacekeeper Special Forces are easily identifiable due to their white cutting-edge robotic suits. It's no surprise given their advanced combatics that they are vastly superior in terms of survivability compared to any other division, they are given a baseline Heavy PPV or Piercing Protection Vest armor in addition to an energy shield that can destroyed in piercing rounds. The energy shield only protects the forward-facing direction, leaving the sides and back of a PKSF vulnerable. Notably, the energy shield is penetration resistant until broken, meaning a PKSF can take 2 DEW-1S shots to kill from the front without any problem. PKSF combatics also come with a built-in VIP tracker which helps lead them to any online Overwatch+ to assist with their protection.

Motto: "From the Shadows"

The AEGIS Intelligence Agency, also known by their abbreviation "AIA", is the core investigation and data analysis unit of the AEGIS Corporation. Their primary responsibility is processing threats to AEGIS International (such as identifying raider factions, dangerous individuals, and individuals that break guidelines in a less-than-obvious way such as alternate accounts). These secretive individuals deal with both internal and external investigations depending on the incident and are skilled in interrogation tactics.

They are responsible for tasks such as:

Identifying raider factions. Performing interrogations on suspicious individuals. Bin duties. (although they are rarely seen doing this) Observing.

Most of their duties are [CLASSIFIED] however, it can happen from time to time for a young and suspicious account to come to the processing booths. When they put their hand into the scanner, "CONTACT AIA" can pop up. In this case, the one operating the booth must go to the AIA External Communications server, and report said individual, if there are no AIA Personnel in game at the time. After that, AIA then [CLASSIFIED], their equipment and weapons are classified but mostly suppressed, they also have an ability called LANF or known as Light Absorbing Nanofield systematically designed by AEGIS Research Division, the LANF allows AIA agents to turn themselves to a light absorbing ventablack image on all cameras and light absorbing focals (eyes, lenses, etc), there is an idle sound queue and glitching particles that appear off them while having it enabled.

The highest power in AEGIS. The Chairman is the absolute ruler of the AEGIS Corporation with the freedom to do whatever they please.

The Inspectorate Committee is in charge of handling ethics and any report on ToML.

The Table of Military Leadership are one of the highest authorities in the Chain of Command, each ToML is assigned to be an Administrative Overwatch of either a division or additional AEGIS group. ToML have a wide range of freedom in-game.

If a member of Overwatch has been showing great perseverance and devotion to AEGIS International, they may be promoted to High Command, either as a member of the Table of Military Leadership, or the Inspectorate Committee.

The Table of Military Leadership is responsible for managing the roleplay aspects of [Day of Dusk] The Border, including creating and managing AEGIS International rules, divisions, and other aspects. The Board of Directors are imperative in managing big-picture aspects of [Day of Dusk] The Border including development and financial decision-making.

Unit Marshal is a rank given to those who are undergoing a trial to become a member of the Table of Military Leadership and possess similar duties to that of ToML while retaining their UC authority.

Unit Captains are expected to regularly host in-game events for both AEGIS personnel and wastelanders, as well as other administrative tasks such as managing medals. Unit Captains are exempt from many rules and have much more freedom in-game. Unit Captains gain the ability to Team Kill AEGIS, Cuff Abuse AEGIS, and give AEGIS members Wasteland Permissions. Unit Captain+ also receive a L-4 keycard.

Unit Commander Same Authority and duties as an Unit Captain.

Past Regional Command are the Overwatch ranking personnel, who possess a higher authority than those of Regional Command. Personnel who are not Overwatch are required to salute Overwatch members and clear the space when these people walk by. Any Overwatch+ ranking personnel are able to be protected by PKSF as well as being able to give PKSF direct orders.

Officers are in charge of hosting trainings, checking duty states, and moderating in-game and on the AEGIS Discord. Officers are provided with an L-3 keycard. Officers can become AOA professors. Officers may also Authorize AEGIS Patrols similar to Site Control.

Warrant Officer Same Authority and duties as an Officer

Veteran Officer Same Authority and duties as a warrant Officer.

Personnel can only be promoted to a Regional Command rank through selection by the AEGIS High Command, although UC+ also have a say in the decision. Officer rankings require exceptional talent, loyalty, and dedication to maintain. Non-Officers address officers as "Sir" or "Ma'am", while officers address lower-ranking officers by their rank insignia. Below are all the Officer ranks:

Specialists that show exceptional activity in the AEGIS Academy may be promoted to Administered Specialist. You need to be graduated from the AEGIS Officer Academy and other requirements to be eligible for this promotion.

Administered Field Agent that show exceptional activity in the AEGIS Academy may be promoted to Specialist. Personnel Specialist+ can approve their own AEGIS Patrols.

Specialist Command consists of additional ranks following Administered Field Agent.

Achieved after passing an application. This rank is primarily focused on hosting lessons in the AEGIS Academy. Administered Field Agents may take a total of ten personnel on patrols. They can apply to the AEGIS Officer Academy.

This is the highest rank achievable through points in AEGIS, and it's only held by the most loyal and talented members. After becoming an EFA, members are able to apply to Administered Field Agent. This rank is permitted to take up to seven members above the rank of Operative (including themselves) on a patrol.

This rank has the same weapons, duties, and responsibilities as a Field Agent. This rank is permitted to take up to five members above the rank of Operative (including themselves) on a patrol.

Field Agents are higher on the command scale than ordinary non-Officer+ personnel. They are allowed to go outside the facility for patrols (providing it has been authorized by a member of Site Control or Regional Command). FA+ can open and close the main border gate if they are the highest rank in-game with no Site Control present. They are also given an L-2 keycard. Upon reaching this rank, members are able to take three members above the rank of Operative (including themselves) on a patrol. It is possible for any rank to be handpicked as a Field Agent by an Officer+, though this is extremely rare. When it does happen, however, the person handpicked is usually at the rank of Veteran Operative already. There is no specific number of people that have to handpick the person. Field Agent+ also gain access to FA tower and the Stone platform where a max of 2 FA+ can post at a time. Field Agents also gain access to RDM (Right Defense Mountain), Caves, and AED Coolant Vents without SC permission. Field Agent+ can also spawn with bin tools if a member of Site Control marks them for permanent bin tools. Additionally, Field Agent+ spawn with the "G-15C", an upgraded variant of the "G-14B" which deals slightly higher damage than its counterpart.

Past Dispatch are the Command Relay ranks. Starting at Field Agent, these personnel tend to have a slightly larger responsibility in the border.

This rank has the same weapons, duties, and responsibilities as an Experienced Operative, though they may receive a recommendation from Officer+, receiving enough will warrant a promotion to Field Agents. However, this is quite rare.

This rank has the same weapons, duties, and responsibilities as a Senior Operative.

Senior Operatives are allowed to host BATs.

After a member has finished the Academy, they become an Operative, an official AEGIS member. Operatives can hold posts on the roof of the border facility. They may also attend patrols. Operatives can also join divisions.

Once personnel graduate the AEGIS Academy, they will become an Operative and be able to have more freedom in the duties they perform, such as Co-Hosting BATs, and going on patrols, O+ can join divisions.

Upon reaching the rank of Junior Operative you'll notice a wealth of opportunities now being offered to you, with many more to come. Junior Operative are issued the G14 G14-6B automatic rifle as well as the P226 Icon P226, the AEGIS standard issue sidearm. Junior Operatives are also given the L-1 keycard, giving them access to the basic areas of the facility, Examples of newly gained duties include posting on the tower posts or operating booths. Junior Operatives can also co-host and spectate a Basic Awareness Training.

Cadets, while only being 1 point over Initiates, generally have a better understanding of how AEGIS functions. They are allowed to operate the processing lanes and are the first step an individual takes into a lifelong and fulfilling career of service within the corporation.

The lowest and by far most populous rank within AEGIS, Initiates are equipped with an ACAD-1 keycard and a P1-TRAINING-E service pistol for basic defense. The bar is intentionally set low with Initiates, obeying the rules and regulations of AEGIS is the minimum expectation. Their primary post is at the lanes, where they defend upon the red lines.

The AEGIS Academy command group is the most junior command group, these ranks largely lack self-agency due to restrictions that determine which duties they can perform. A general lack of experience also contributes to this, requiring them to be instructed rather than being trusted to know their place in the day to day operations of the facility. They will, through the AEGIS Academy and on hand experience, learn. The AEGIS Academy is made up of 3 ranks, Initiate, Cadet, and Junior Operative. The AEGIS Academy can be access through the AEGIS Recruitment Office beside the Border entrance.

The military contingent of AEGIS International is divided into 7 command groups which are comprised of 22 ranks. The first 10 of these ranks, all the way up to Experienced Field Agent, may be obtained through holding a certain number of points. Ways to earn points vary from doing duty-states to attending trainings and even earning them from Unit Captain+ hosted events.

Graduating from the AEGIS Officer Academy (AOA) is a requirement to rank up past Experienced Field Agent. After graduating AOA graduates are ranked to Administered Field Agent, where they must host lessons in the AEGIS Academy and demonstrate their leadership capabilities to be promoted. Promotions past Administered Field Agent and into the Regional Command Group generally require recognition and deliberation by the Overwatch and High Command groups

There is a huge border and a large wasteland in the map of the game. Soldiers need to guard the border and process civilians who enter the border. The wastelanders can sell trashes, valuable ores, scraps, or pay credits or even work for Aegis International to be accessed to the Last City. Sometimes, players may get infected. Most of them won't become monsters and can be cured in a short time. However, some of them may become infecters and infect the other players. They cannot hurt the others but they can spread virus. These infecters will die after a short period of time. After they are dead, they turned into zombie and will be spawned at the location where they die. These zombies are able to kill humans easily. If a massive infection happens at border, Aegis International will start a lockdown and order its regular soldiers to stay in safe places, and send many members of the Research Division to cure those who are infected and clear out the monsters. The soldiers who don't obey the command will be punished.

Aegis International often invites members and non-members to participate in entertainment events hosted on important days.

The game also has some supernatural elements. There is a dimension called Jell, which is probably based on the concept of Arali in the mythos of ancient religions in real world. The demonic creaturs who come from Jell sometime caught the mortals' souls into Jell and forced them to work for the demonic creaturs.

Aegis International was one of the most famous corporations on Earth before the Third World War began. Years later, the world war began because many states started fighting for resources due to the serious environmental crisis. After the Third World War ended, three resource wars began. The nuclear war almost destroyed the whole civilization. All states were destroyed in the wars. The leftover humans needed to survive on a planet which was not safe anymore. In order to defend human civilization, Aegis International started building the Last City and built a great border to defend it. A lot of monsters and invaders failed to occuply the main base area of Aegis International because Aegis International had a huge army and resources to fight them off. In order to get more resources, Aegis International hired many wastelanders to mine for them. Some wastelanders chose to join the army. However, some people felt angry about the policies of Aegis International and built a small rebel forces to fight against Aegis International. It was said that Aegis International often captured a few wastelanders and did horrible experiments on them in order to find out the best method to cure the terrible virus which appeared after the nuclear war ended. Rumors said that there were some huge hostile armies in wasteland. These armies were probably planning to destroy Aegis International.
