Note (Historical): There had been several times when the Trailer group had its members mysteriously disappeared from them. Eight years ago: Twins Nina and Leela (age 14) - on a simple shopping expedition in a place called Trader’s Ville, these two girls disappeared from view in a crowded market bazaar. They were last seen they were with some non-descript male in his late 20s. He was wearing a denim and leather jacket, nearby “Chopper Bike” with a “Peanut” Gas Tank.* Later that day (night actually) Ellis (age 16) – disappeared while the group was looking the missing girls with the rest of the ‘Family.’ He was part of the search team they made. These disappearances happened in a place called “Junk Town,” a town next to a large land fill where many miners mine the fill for what they can get out of it, and there are often disputes for “claims” on the fill. Junk Town is about 800 miles south of Fight Town. This was the first disappearances when the group “acquired” their trailer a couple of years before. They claim that the trailer was on the side of the road abandoned and they recovered and repaired it, adding to it as during the next couple of years. After fitting their first trailer with beds, they sold two of their 3 pick-up truck campers before the disappearances happened. Six years ago: “Uncle Ned” (age 42), “Aunt Sheri” (age 35), and “Tiny Tina” (age 12) – disappeared on a parts finding mission for the tractor. It is unknown who disappeared first but it is presumed that Tina was the first victim with Sheri and Ned disappearing while looking for her. Though not broken down, the trailer was showing problems which could have been fixed with parts they would have gotten at Parts Town. The rest of the group managed to limp the tractor trailer back into town and found their camper truck in a parking area but no signs of three individuals. Parts Town is 150 miles east of Junk Town, just of the other side of the landfill. “Uncle Ned” was the chief mechanic of the group. At the time there was a purge happening.* Five years ago: “Papa John” (Age 65+ - leader of the group) – disappeared while on a supply run in the same town of the Twins’ disappearance (Trader’s Ville). At the time he had several 1oz gold ingots the group had mined during the week before. It is said that “Papa John,” who did have a gambling problem, went to poker game which he never came back from. “Papa John” was on his last legs, having “The tremors” (Early Parkinson’s), a nasty cough (from smoking and breathing in fume while smelting metals), and other health issues though he was mentally intact and sharp. He had to walk with a came and had a firearm with him at all times but he was very slow on the draw due to his heath condition. At the time before his disappearance, Jason took Papa John to the card game and was told to return to get him after a couple of hours. Papa John was the leader of the group. Teens Liza (15), Beth (13), Milly (14) and Michael (15) – disappeared while shopping for various goods, particularly clothing, and home supplies. They failed to return after nightfall and after several days of searching, little information was found about them. They were last seen they were with some non-descript male in his late 20s near a bar in the seedy side of town. He was wearing a denim and leather jacket, nearby several “Chopper Bikes” with “Peanut” Gas Tanks. Four year ago: Wendy (age 24, Jason’s wife at the time) – disappeared while in trade and shopping expedition. Though in such expeditions, no one goes alone. Jason went with her but when she found her trader she trades smelted goods for money and supplies, Jason went off to play in a card game. Wendy would find Jason in a private card game and stood behind him. He showed her his hand of a Flush, bragging how he was going to win the pot. When called, he put down to show his cards and started reaching for the money. But the other player put down his cards showing a royal flush of Hearts. Thing is, Jason’s Flush had a King and a Ten of Hearts, and he stated that the other player cheated. Jason was found in a back alley severely beaten and was taken to the hospital where he remained for several weeks recovering from his injuries. Wendy, her money, smelted goods or traded items was nowhere to be found. Notes: “Chopper Bike” with a “Peanut” Gas Tank – Highway gangs tend to have large gas tanks on their motorcycles in order to cover the large distances on the highway over a long period of time (days, if not weeks without refueling). A “Peanut” gas tank can only hold a couple gallons, which means the motorcycle can only cover short distances over the course of a day or two, then they need to refill their tiny fuel tank. The only ones to use motorcycles with peanut tanks are Slavers for scouting and ‘Prey pointing’ missions. They tend to travel in a group of 2 or 3, with one or two trucks nearby. Historical Slavers Purges – as odd as it may sound, due to the distance involved, the purges done was by a different Slaver Group and not by the Former Slavers of Slavia, once lead by Biggus. The Slavers communities did have a communications network where they can trade and barter for slaves (human, wessen and mutants) but this was rather a loosely knitted network. Though not related to each other, they were connected together as a family of sorts, there are some individuals that are/were related. Wilma and Wendy were cousins in an almost sister-like relationship, Ned and Sheri were married and Tina was their child. Ellis was the brother of Liza and cousin of Beth. Michael and Milly were not related but they were very close and at times inseparable. Wilma now acts as Jason’s wife in a very limited marriage relationship. Papa John was related to Jason and Ned but Jason will not explain how they were related. The group went by several last names over the years, including: Giles, Lattimore, MacIntosh, O’Brian, Smith and other last names. It is very doubtful that any of these individuals would be found alive or dead. If those who survived were turned into Wessens, their memories would have been erased. And once converted into a Wessen, it is nearly impossible to track that person down. This note only covers disappearances. It does not cover deaths, accidents or individuals of the group who had left the group for personal reasons.
