IN THE BEGINNING...
In 2009, lycanthropes and vampires lived among us - co-workers, family members, and even next door neighbors. There were laws that protected the preternatural, given them equal rights. They were able to own their own businesses, work in school systems, hospitals, and even had the right to vote. Everything was going great for the preternatural community until a law was passed that banned the supernatural from adopting children as they were was as unfit parents. The community was outraged and protested against the law, taking it all the way to the white house where Human’s First and Human Against Vampires got involved as they agreed with the new law. The media stirred up a frenzy as it increased to the point that there was twenty-four hour protecting going on around the white house. The government had enough of that as she found the brightest scientists in the country to make a cure for lycanthropy and vampirism. The research was going well until one of the scientist started doing his own research to create super mutants. He switched the serum as the vaccine was brought to the public's attention. Hundreds lined up to receive the untested “cure” . Hundreds fell incredible ill as they lost control of their hunger and became zombie like beings with extraordinary psychic abilities. Chaos spread throughout the country as the disease spread from one person to the next by bodily fluids. Violence and death crept around each corner. No one was safe.
THE MONSTERS COME TO LIGHT...
In 2012, a race of infected vampires, lycanthropes, and humans emerged as they slowly started to regain control of their hunger and actions. As they started to “awake,” they banded together and called themselves Scythians after the race of ancient Vikings mercenaries who were famous for their honor and battle prowess. Not truly being infected anymore besides contagious bodily fluids, they walk among other infected who still remained wild like zombies. They fight the urge, the nature they were given as they try to find a cure for the disease that was given to them. The Scythian hide among survivors of the disease and other infected in hopes that one day they will be normal again.
THE PRESENT...
2015, several survivors took refuge in “safe houses” throughout the city. Banks, schools, prisons, or any other very secured buildings. Clans, covens, and kisses that existed before the disease that spread, now band together in safe houses since they might be the only ones left out of their once known cities. The clans took on structure so they could try to survive the disease. Humans also took refuse, working closely with vampires and lycanthropes as they struggle to survive.
The government went silent as they retreated back to their military bunkers that are located underground. They watched the country go down as they watched people suffer from their own mistakes. The government promised to find a cure, but people are losing hope as the population continues to shrink and the infection continues to spread. Whispers are being spread that the government is trying to devise a way to turn the infected into super soldiers, using captured infected as test subjects, but are these just conspiracy theories or is there something more to the rumors?
What would you do to discover the truth?
So are you a member of the government working in secret? An unfortunate infected? Or have you regained control and committed yourself to the Scythian cause? Maybe you're a survivor and you're just trying to stay that way until a cure is found, if one can be found at all. Survivor, Government, Infected or Scythian there's really only one thing left to say.....
