An extract from Zero Day: From the Dark After Dawn Core Rulebook.
"Icy cold cut through him as he hobbled awkwardly through the streets of Havenwood, the November bite overcoming his meagre attire with ease. Forcing his free hand further into the pocket of the thin jacket he wore, Davis Jones leaned heavily on the stick in his other hand, shoulder straining to take the weight his back proved incapable of supporting. He could feel tears welling in the rims of his eyes at the thought; twenty-six years old and already reliant on a crutch just to move around; what kind of future was he being offered? A patch of frost underfoot caused him to slip, and he was forced to stop as his body jerked painfully. At least he remained on his feet. He took a deep breath of the crisp air about him and tried to shake the malaise from his head; after all, the problem with his back was a minor inconvenience next to everything else".
