Fenfield Gardener, The

They say no one still lives in Fenfield, but they also say that some places are still left deep in the fog. They will bicker over these things, over whether or not Fenfield is a Hellscape, or whether the Hellscape is located among the radioactive marshland. But few can argue over the stories and rumors of a figure who wanders Fenfield.   The Fenfield Gardener.   The idea of someone freely wandering the Fen, let alone one who bears the title of "Gardener", is an idea that contradicts with the very nature of Fenfield. In fact, the reason so little is known about the Fenfield Gardener is not due to a lack of sightings, but due to the fact that the people who meet the Gardener are later claimed by their Garden. But when their bodies are found, the Gardeners purpose is clear to all. Broken bones are braced with thick branches, gazes made of tanned animal pelts, and radiation burns treated with salves and creams made from the local fauna. Indeed, those few who have meet the Gardener and live to tell the tale go on to say that the Gardener is an angel in a blighted land.   What is truly odd about these accounts is the stories of the Gardeners many wares made from the fauna of Fenfield. Most who have interacted with them especially recount a herbal tea served to them, tasting distinctly of mint and cherries. Others talk of strange meals, being given grain bools that while not the best cooked, certainly kept them from starving. What all stories share in common however is the meticulous nature of their craft, going about their work with a technicians grace. Each action precise, well thought out, and double checked just to be sure. Indeed, most would seem to think of the Gardener of having a caring face with calm eyes, a welcome sight compared to the macabre yellow radiation suit that they wear at all times, decorated in rusted tools and black painted equipment whose purpose is long forgotten.   But stories of the Fenfield Gardener are not purely of goodwill, as many neighboring districts account of a figure dressed in old war fatigues attempting to cut holes into their walls separating them from the marsh. Survivors whisper of a ghoul who finds more in common with the marshes of Fenfield than of their fellow man. Even the few stories from Hellscape speak of a character who attempts to sneak plants and animals into the concrete sanctuary. And all of these characters describe the figure as dressed in black and yellow.   If all these stories speak of the Fenfield Gardener, then they are surely proud of their work in the Fenfield. And they are not contempt with how large the marsh has grown.
