The protagonists in the series have different goals and allegiances, but often must work together. The most dangerous of the Zone dwellers are other stalkers, particularly a fanatical sect called the Monolith that protects the center of the Zone, and mutants, some of which possess psionic powers. Additionally, military squads carry out operations in the Zone, such as elimination missions or securing strategic points. The military have an uneasy relationship with stalkers - while official orders are to shoot any trespassers on sight, military personnel are often bribed to look the other way. To protect the Zone from intruders, a military checkpoint known as the Cordon was established by the Ukrainian Military Forces. Bandits are wanted criminals and outlaws that have come to the Zone to hide from authorities, while the Clear Sky seek to understand the origins of the Zone. Conversely, members of the Freedom faction believe the Zone is a gift that should be freely accessible to all people. The Duty are a paramilitary organization that believes the Zone is a threat to humanity that must be destroyed. Many of them are working on their own, though there are also several organized factions present. People who have come to explore the Zone in search of personal enrichment such as artifacts are known as "stalkers". The anomalies are causing artifacts to appear, which are items with unique and extraordinary properties such as anti-gravity or radioactivity absorption. After the second disaster, the Zone grew rich with anomalies - inexplicable phenomena that don't obey the laws of physics or common sense (such as pillars of fire, lightning scatter, whirlwinds that tear everything that falls into them, etc). Due to the experiments conducted in these laboratories, a second catastrophe occurred in 2006, which caused physical and meteorological phenomena all over the exclusion zone and mutation of local plant and animal life. The franchise takes place in an alternate Chernobyl Exclusion Zone (or simply "the Zone"), where a number of classified laboratories were established following the nuclear disaster of 1986.
