Reclamation Day is a vibrant and industrious celebration observed with a mix of tradition and innovation, reflecting the Rust Keepers' ethos of resilience and resourcefulness. The day begins with a ceremonial activation of an ancient piece of technology, often restored by the faction’s Master Tinkerers, symbolizing the triumph of ingenuity over decay. Throughout the day, Rust Keepers and their allies come together in workshops and salvage yards, working side by side to repurpose old artifacts or rebuild long-lost devices. The highlight of the festivities is a grand scavenger hunt, where teams venture into designated ruins or scrapyards to unearth valuable relics, with rewards granted for the most impressive finds. Music, storytelling, and feasting also accompany the hard work, as veterans share tales of legendary salvages and daring expeditions, inspiring the next generation of scavengers. By evening, the community gathers to unveil the day’s completed projects, celebrating their collective creativity and reaffirming their unity in the face of the Wastelands’ challenges.
