In the year 2082 a global earthquake rocked the planet for a full eight minutes. Those eight minutes were more than enough to end the world as mankind knew it. Modern society, technology, transportation…most if not all of it is gone. To make matters even worse mankind was also faced with old monsters and enemies almost long forgotten or solely kept alive by film.
Vampires, werecreatures, witches…
All of them came out of the woodwork. Once they might have been pushed into the darkness and had to hide away in order to survive, but not any longer. This new, destroyed world was their second chance and most of them certainly did not waste any time to grab it.
Our story starts in the Year 2156, in the former capitol of Greece, Athens. Now mostly a demolished, ghost town that stands as a monument of times past, Athens is mostly inhabited by the desperate, the greedy and the dangerous. Several settlements have been formed around its outskirts, offering little and rather transient safety to those that choose to live there. The region itself is ruled by various men and women, who lead their respective factions and groups; humans hoping to resettle this region, vampires that prey on the humans from beneath the ruined sewers and subways of Athens, various shifter species that are fighting for dominance and the witches who are mostly scattered and just trying to survive.
What the weary populace is mostly unaware of is that the Empire of Litos is coming; an autocracy that is looking to conquer the former capitol and to erect it to new glory. So far they have sent a 300 man strong legion to scout out the area and form alliances, to find out who the pliable and who the dangerous are for they will be invading soon enough.
In a place and time that everybody has been confronted by their darkness we welcome you to the very cold and quite possibly very last frontier – just be sure to check the Shadows, for you can never know what can be found lurking within.
