TRIBE BLUE
The Guild of Architects were the first to recognize the danger.  They built the first High Camp, Terra Arcis, many years before the dark waters reached the city center.  They left first and escaped the trauma and bloodshed of the Evacuation Protocol. They also hoarded the majority of the City's resources and technologies in their refuge.  The Guild has master plans to build a new city landscape dedicated to their vision of a re-formatted society of scholarly rule - where you are either an educated citizen with social standing, or an unprivileged brick to be built upon. 

TRIBE RED
The Raj Khan were the political kingmakers of the city. They created the Evacuation Protocol as a distraction for the masses while they secretly escaped the city with hoards of key currencies and commodities. As veteran negotiators with a deep network of alliances and political favors, they coerced the Guild to build them a sanctuary which rose to prominence as the second High Camp, Palatium. They will ruthlessly pursue the re-establishment of their Red Banner with immovable tiers of wealth - or servitude - over a new city.

TRIBE GREEN
The City Defense Corps were collections of skilled citizens mobilized by the Raj Khan to execute the Evacuation Protocol. Organized by utilitarian ranks and specializations, the CDC were the heroes who saved innumerable lives from the dark waters and established the third high refuge, Anfa Camp. They also bear the scars of the final departure when plans of an orderly evacuation turned into a nightmare of violent escape - while never forgetting the betrayal of the Raj Khan. Their mortal oath is to rebuild the city for the true citizens of service and sacrifice - with the courthouse as their centerpiece to deliver justice and punishment to the rest.

TRIBE GREY
The Serr Asa were the diehard citydwellers who stayed to the bitter end until the dark waters nearly drowned them. Their stubborn unity turned into gang warfare during a cut-throat final escape. The sins of that era still haunted them as they hastily built the final High Camp, Le Spire, where the omnipresent color of grey serves as a reminder of the ashes of their former lives. Battle-hardened with salvaged equipment, the Serr Asa prospered by creating a virtuous system of interwoven allegiances and debts among the competing gang families. The first day without rain is their prophecy and a sign of ultimate salvation - a return to the city to bury the dead and birth a new world under their strict religious laws.
