[@Aeonumbra], so this might seem like a dumb question, but since I don't believe in those, I shall ask it!

Under "Current State of Local Area", what's the difference between the Public & Refuge? Is "Public" essentially anything outside of the Refuge border?

Precisely. The refuge part is meant to let you know what services are available, and with some flavor text beneath. (Such as letting you know that vehicles in refuge are pretty much used by the RPO exclusively.)

I have glanced over the character sheets, but unfortunately after my nap today I spent most of the evening building a computer. I'll be sending out replies and posting my character Wednesday morning.
