    CategoryRequirementExample
    Structural IntegrityReinforced walls, sealed vault doors, environmental locksVault-Tec blast door, BoS Titanium Dome
    Atmospheric ControlAir filtration, radiation scrubbers, pressure-lock systemsDeep Sea Dome, Terraform Field Cleanser

  • a multi-choice Breach Defense Campaign, faction-themed fire/rad suits, and the ambitious Global Rebirth Project, which allows you to reshape the world through shelter-linked civilization rebuilding systems.

    🎯 I. Multi-Choice Breach Defense Campaign Arc

    Campaign Title: “Siege of the Second Sun”

    🏁 Campaign Setup

    • Triggers when 3+ mutation pressure waves breach outer sectors

    • AI Uplink warns: “We are no longer observing anomaly events… we are inside one.”

    • Player selects their role in the defense:

      • 🛠 Warden (structure & route-focused)

      • 🔫 Commander (combat-focused)

      • 🧠 Savant (scientific + sabotage)

      • 🧭 Civic Anchor (refugee morale, cultural survival)

    📖 Act I: “Rings of Fire”

    Enemy cultists ignite the Wasteland perimeter in firestorms and begin spiritual mass mutation rituals near shelter routes.

    Choices:

    • Ignite counter-fires & firebreaks (boost fire resistance, lose forests)

    • Negotiate with mystics for temporary delay (lose trust from Brotherhood or Enclave)

    • Target ritual zones with Vertibird plasma (risk turning mutants into something worse)

    🎁 Unlocks:

    • Access to Fireproof Citizen Training

    • Blueprint: Fireline Wall Array

    • Suit: Ashborn EnviroGuard

    📖 Act II: “The Mind Splinter”

    AI factions launch mass override pulses. Shelter drones and assistants glitch. One of your companions (at random) begins to stutter and shift personality.

    Choices:

    • Shut down AI defenses for 24 hrs to run neural purge (vulnerable to invasion)

    • Build Isolation Room and upload the infected companion to the Core (may not come back)

    • Use the Mutation Stabilizer Shot (limited supply; cure but unknown long-term effect)

    🎁 Unlocks:

    • Companion-specific AI immunities

    • Blueprint: Logic Flame Purifier Tower

    • Suit: SignalDamp Scorchplate

    📖 Act III: “Refugees or Ruin”

    200+ NPCs arrive at your gates. Some are traitors. One is carrying a child of unknown origin. Rumors say the child controls the mutation storm.

    Choices:

    • Open gates and rely on Detection AI to weed out infiltrators

    • Reject entry and fortify (you lose cultural support, but protect physical assets)

    • Secretly evacuate citizens and let the main shelter be overrun—retake later

    🎁 Unlocks:

    • Refugee Lineage Expansion (NPCs now pass legacy traits)

    • Cultural Trust upgrade (survivor stories give passive buffs)

    • Suit: Children of Emberlight Robes

    📖 Final Act: “Ash or Ascension”

    The breach collapses the land around you. Only shelters linked via Uplink survive. You must choose:

    OptionResult
    Hold the Final ShelterDefend for 7 days; heroic final stand (bonus legacy ending)
    Trigger “Rebirth Protocol”Leads to the Global Rebirth Project (new world state)
