Badlands
The Badlands is a sector of Tharsis, Mars. The area, described as "where terraforming went wrong", is a wasteland of jagged rocks and dead settlements.
The Badlands are home to the Marauders, descendants of Ultor Scientists from the first Red Faction who appear in large numbers at night. Ruins of Ultor buildings and mines can be found in the area. Deep within The Badlands sit ghosts of the past that aren't willing to go quietly into the night. The Earth Defense Force does not like going out there, but still maintains a substantial presence in the region.
