Setting
The Outer Worlds is set in an alternate timeline, with the point of divergence beginning when United States President William McKinley was not assassinated by an anarchist in 1901. As a result, Theodore Roosevelt never succeeded McKinley as President and large business trusts were never broken up, leading to a hyper-corporate, class centric society dominated by the power of mega-corporations and robber barons, which by the distant future, have begun to colonize space. The game takes place in the year 2355 in the Halcyon System.
Introduction Story
The Stranger, also known as "the unknown variable", is a passenger aboard the colony ship Hope, which is bound for the distant Halcyon system, wholly owned and operated by corporations. During its journey, the ship's skip drive malfunctions and it is forced to continue using its sublight engines, extending the trip from ten years to sixty. Since Halcyon was colonized through other means, the Hope is unexpectedly found adrift with its colonists unable to be revived and the Halcyon Holdings Corporate Board decided to abandon the colonists. The Hope is moved into orbit over the ice planet Typhon and its existence covered up.
Thirty-five years later, the colony is in fact on the verge of complete collapse. Despite the assurances of the Board, life in the colony is far from perfect. The main problem being slow and subtle starvation of the entire population due to Earth food being too low in nutrients.

https://theouterworlds.fandom.com/wiki/Zoe_Chandler
A former employee of the Edgewater Saltuna Cannery, Zoe fell ill with plague and stole more than her allotment of Adrena-Time to treat herself. As a result she was accused of larceny and kicked out the town. Like many of those who had deserted the town, Zoe made her way to the Botanical Labs where her illness was treated by Adelaide McDevitt with a green leafy drink twice a day. During her recovery she took to watching aetherwave serials and would later also watch them with Stefan Garcia.
However, she hated living in the botanical labs and considered it worse than the cannery because people constantly talked to her. The only two people she could tolerate were Stefan and Grace Romero, the latter who she respected for her ability to use a rifle. Eventually, Zoe's fascination with the serials, particularly The Masked Marketeer, led to her dreaming of becoming the pre-eminent bandit queen of Emerald Vale. Eventually, she decided to realize this dream and throw in with the marauders who lived in the hills of Emerald Vale. To do so, she stocked up on additional rations and Adrena-Time, correctly believing that the marauders could easily be bribed with the drug. She bartered much of her stash to the marauder gang in the Abandoned Industrial Zone and they allowed her to stay, becoming "practically their queen".
Zoe's abrupt disappearance from the Botanical Labs was noted by Grace Romero, who is worried that she has been captured by marauders. However, Grace is unable to go look for Zoe herself, as she is the only one at the Botanical Labs able to handle a gun and therefore defend the camp. Grace asks the Stranger for help in locating and bringing Zoe back to the deserters camp.

This facility is owned and formally operated by Spacer's Choice, however the company shut it down when its botanists were unable to grow decent crops due to the poor soil quality. It currently serves as a refuge for Adelaide McDevitt and other deserters from Edgewater, and the former has made the soil fertile again by grinding up human corpses to mix with her fertilizer. The location is powered solely by the nearby geothermal power plant.
