Music in Dalton and beyond.

In Dalton, music is eclectic and varied. It has been influenced by the Oglala community of Pine Ridge, the spoken word tradition popular with the rebel groups, and the folk music of the rail riders.

Mixed ID markings and registration

The Citadel uses a variation of the Genext serializing to keep track of the Mixed who live in Dalton. These IDs determine a Mixed's status in Dalton, and are often faked in the runaway and rebel communities to attempt to avoid arrest.

Rail Riders

Stuart

Dalton Culture

Dalton's culture is a mixture of those of its residents. One of the largest minority cultures is Native American, and the Mixed themselves have developed species-specific traditions.

The Oglala (Pine Ridge) Community

The Sioux community, returning to its traditional ways, has thrived in the new post-war society. However, their success has caused them to be viewed as a threat by Dalton government, and the two communities mutually distrust each other.

The Markets

The markets are a major center of Dalton life, the source of needed goods people cannot always make for themselves.

Elizabeth Spaulding

Elizabeth Spaulding is the efficient and practical Director of Reconditioning, popular with the humans of Dalton but loathed and feared by the Mixed.

Scrappers

Salvagers who work the car and computer dumps, scrappers have earned their name as much for their violent natures as their work.
