Cambridge
Historical Overview:
The historic home of Harvard and MIT, Cambridge has long been a hub of intellectual and technological advancement. It was a melting pot of students, professors, and researchers, with a culture steeped in academic prestige and innovation. Over time, it became increasingly corporate-driven, as tech companies and biotech firms established footholds near the universities.
Neo-Boston Update:
Cambridge is now a sprawling corporate R&D sector, where the remnants of its academic past have been absorbed into megacorporate interests. Harvard and MIT still exist, but they are no longer independent institutions; they function as think tanks for corporate overlords, churning out cutting-edge cybernetics, AI, and biotech advancements. Miskatonic College has gained infamy for its research into fringe sciences, with whispered speculation that it dabbles in something beyond mere technology.
Beneath the Noise:
The archives beneath Miskatonic hold tomes that should have been burned centuries ago. Occult scholars and rogue scientists alike seek out its hidden knowledge, and there are whispers that some of the faculty are no longer entirely human.
