Description:
The world as it was is gone. The apocalypse came not from war, not from nature, but from the hands of those who swore to protect humanity. A secret government organization, operating under the guise of global salvation, unleashed what they called the ultimate cure for COVID-19—a mist-like solution dispersed by planes across every continent. This “cure,” however, was a death sentence.
The mist contained a nightmarish cocktail of pathogens: Pathogen HK, Wildfire, Green Flu, and Cordyceps Fungus. The result? An outbreak like no other. The infected rapidly mutated into grotesque horrors—some slow and shambling, others fast and ravenous, with new monstrous strains emerging every day. Civilization collapsed in mere weeks. Survivors are scattered, forming factions and cults in hopes to survive. Some seek the cure, others seek power, and some simply want to watch the world burn. The undead roam in terrifying numbers, their mutations growing more horrific by the day.
The world has fractured into factions, each with its own vision for the future:
The Coalition A brutal militia that believes only the strong should rule, hunting mutated strains and weaponizing them to secure ultimate power.
The Horizon A scientific organization obsessed with finding a cure, no matter the cost. Their methods include human experimentation, forced sacrifices, and capturing Numen for study.
The Children Of Rot A zealous cult that worships the undead, believing the infection is humanity’s true evolution. Some have willingly undergone partial zombification.
The Walking Dead They see the apocalypse not as the end, but as the beginning of a new world where the strong adapt and the weak are consumed. Rather than fearing the undead, they embrace them—walking among them, covering themselves in rotting flesh, and moving as one with the hordes. Their leader, known only as “The Wanderer,” is said to be a Numen who has undergone rebirth multiple times, existing in a state between human and monster.
And at the center of it all are the players: Numen, survivors, or perhaps something even rarer caught in a war for the fate of what remains.
Welcome to the beginning of the end
