Doom in the Ruins of MC - A Blasted Earth LDP Quest
314 years after the Earth was devastated by aliens, nature has reclaimed the Valley of Mexico. The earth itself has been turned to swampland. The forest has run rampant over the city, and only ruins and scattered lakes break up the forest canopy.
A few buildings still exist, but they are heavily damaged and show the wear of centuries. The roads into the city have been buried by earthquake damage, leaving only two ways into the city; flight or climbing the mountains that wall in the valley.
In this adventure, the party needs to traverse the ruins of Mexico City to find the Eolica, Inc. factory where the experimental IO Helmets were produced centuries ago. This technology allowed users to communicate over any distance, no matter how vast. The party has been told that the helmets can still be acquired here, but the details are vague.
