English:Floodland Ruins · Factions

A faction label attached to a few ruins in the Floodlands. It has no patrols and no characters of its own — everything you actually meet out there belongs to the Old Machines. The name is a deed of ownership, not a group.

Floodland Ruins is a faction label used only to mark who owns a building, applied to a handful of ruins in the Floodlands.

What makes it unlike most factions: it has no patrols and spawns no roaming squads at all. Every character you actually run into out there is likely to belong to the Old Machines.

NoteSo when an infobox says "Controlling faction: Floodland Ruins", do not read it as "a group holds this place". Read it as "this building is registered to that label in the data". The thing that will attack you is the Old Machines.

What it holds

Empty Ruins, the Leaning Tower and the Ruined Tower — all three in the Floodlands.

No town overrides are attached to the faction, so none of it changes hands with a World State.

One thing that does not line up

Oddly, a single ruin under this faction is found in the Stenn Desert, which is nowhere near the Floodlands.

The game offers no explanation, and it looks like a leftover in the data. Recorded as found, with no extrapolation.
