History
Born in Flowood, Mississippi in 2010, Luke Hood bore witness to a tumultuous era of change during his formative years. As a teenager, he never fathomed the ease with which the once-mighty United States could crumble, but before his eyes, the nation disintegrated. Amid the chaos that followed, he found himself a citizen of the Union of Louisiana, an unforeseen twist of fate that would dramatically shape his future.
Despite his new allegiance, Hood remained committed to his dream of attending Mississippi State University. However, he realized that to return to his home state of Mississippi, now situated in the Eastern Mississippi Free Territory, he needed a passport. He obtained one from the Louisiana government, a document that came with an ominous caveat: "Once you're done, come back, or we will find you." The tension between the different post-collapse territories was palpable.
Hood persevered, graduating from MSU with a degree in political science in 2033. In 2035, he took a pivotal step by joining the Communist Party of Louisiana, the sole legal party within the Union. Shortly after, his life took another unforeseen turn when Chairman Jefferson of the CPL, likely with the intention of spreading De Leonism, exiled Hood to the region of Tennessee-Kentucky.
Arriving in Nashville, Hood decided to embark on a personal mission of transformation. The region was under the rule of a capitalist military dictatorship, a far cry from his communist ideals. He saw an opportunity to affect change and, with unwavering determination, revived the dormant Socialist Labor Party. This party would become the fulcrum for his ambitions of reshaping the political landscape in the region.
What followed was more of a coup d'état than a Revolution, as workers, inspired by Hood's leadership, mobilized and marched on the capital. President Alan, facing an uprising of unprecedented scale, eventually surrendered. In the aftermath of this conflict, Hood emerged as a pivotal figure, having succeeded in bringing De Leonism back to the forefront of regional politics.
In recognition of his efforts and newfound prominence, Hood was elected to serve as a congressman in the Industrial Congress, an institution born out of the post-collapse reality. His mission to reshape Tennessee-Kentucky had come full circle, but the uncertain path of reconstruction and political change lay ahead, as Hood sought to weave the principles of De Leonism into the fabric of a region grappling with its post-collapse identity.
