Some places be good, and some places be bad. But then, some places just be damned.

After the great plagues of the last Era, citizens and soldiers alike began the difficult reconstruction of life and order. The dead were burnt and the living dead were driven out beyond the borders of the cities.
But the city of Skullopolis remained in darkness, for there was no one left alive, an no one willing to resettle there. An endless storm churned over the city, letting forth a low moan that attracted the walking dead to the old city.
In time, Skullopolis was repopulated with all manner of unliving, and is now the capital of the dead.
No, you are probably not welcome there.
Facts:
- Before the plagues, the city was known as “Kullopolis”, named after enterprising entreprenuer Kullo.
- The AUTHORITY has never been able to bring “order” or their brand of law to Skullopolis.
- There is definite activity there, even if the living cannot approach within 30 miles of the place.
Rumors:
- Skullopolis population has grown and grown, and it is close to swallowing the neighboring cities.
- A biker band of zombies called the “Hell Riders” is said to patrol and control the southernmost districts.
- The city is slowly drifting into a sink-hole.
- A mysterious ruler called “SKULLOBOT” is building an army of the dead to take on the AUTHORITY.
- Lupo-Lads treats are made in Skullopolis.

Cool plot line. I seem to recall an old movie called Hell Riders that stared a famous caped hero – Adam West.
