You see what is going on all around you.
You see the man down the hall with the facial nerve damage from a "quality error".
You see the sub-par test scores of the children in the neighborhood and wonder what really is in those water treatments.
You have seen water riots. You have worn your collection suit and drank your own sweat to survive until your rations renewed.
You have learned dangerous skills that can be used to undermine the Authority and take their precious water, giving it to the people who need it most. You have pushed away their cup, picked up a pipe, and seized the tap by force. Now, you turn it on and let the water flow freely.
For that, they will do everything in their power to find you and kill you.
Hydro Hacker Operatives is a Powered by the Apocalypse game, where you play Hydro-punk Robin Hoods stealing water from Corporations in order to keep your neighborhood alive.
Play one of 6 playbooks: Broker, Community Activist, Diviner, Hacker, Neighborhood Watch, and of course Plumbers. Create your neighborhood from its own playbook, and work to keep it from running out of water, as well as trying to make it a better place. All of your actions are opposed by the Water Authority, a militarized corporation whose job is to ration and distribute water to everyone, and more to those who can pay.
