The year is 2241. You were born into a society you have painstakingly been forced to understand. The world's alliances all but broke down following the arrival of the 22nd century. America had finally developed a device more powerful than the nuclear bomb. Using Trilithium, an explosive mineral dust founded by magical means, and different forms of radiation the weapon could eradicate entire continents within days. Needless to say, the news spread around the world. Soon everyone had developed T-bombs but the peace stood for three more years.

Disaster struck when human soldiers, intoxicated with rum and trigger-happy, boasted of America's power while on assignment in Europe. The citizens of the bar he and his men occupied asked them to leave. They did not and instead decided to unload entire gun clips into the civilians- claiming later they had been provoked by a Runic. It was a bloodbath. The soldiers scrambled to get out of Europe but it was too late. The European government exacted swift judgement upon the soldiers and sent communications to America that justice was served. Justice, however, never came from the massacre.

What started the war is a mystery. We do not know which side attacked first but we do know that when the war first began, America tried to cripple Europe by bombing the aligning area connecting Asia- a known ally. They did not stop and continued their assault on South Asia. Many souls were gone in days; completely wiped off the map. Africa and the rest of Asia, in fear, became neutral. Europe was furious. Taking the offensive, they fueled their warships and sent troops marching onto American soil.

The war continued. America beating the Europeans back. Europe attacking again. Rinse and repeat. It wasn't until the European power was dwindling when they decided to act radically. Sending one bomb straight to South America, they wiped out its people and sent shock waves reverberating into North America. Weeks later after no retaliation, they released two more T-bomb's onto America. This time, however, America was ready. Defending itself, America launched a special AI controlling drone, they were scrambling to make, and diverted the bomb. No one realized the drone could not be controlled and went sky rocketing into the neutral zones. Asia and Africa were leveled, all its people wiped out in the night.

After the Asian continent became barren with life, some Runics being able to flee before the explosion, Europe and America, being the only powers left in the world, decided to end the massacre. Agreeing to destroy the T-bombs the war ended after two years of bloodshed. The powers commanded each other to have one main Capital, one main government, and to destroy state lines. The world was turned into small villages and colonies. No one would ever rise up again or get foolish ideas.

No one foresaw the radiation from the T-bombs coming overseas in the rain. Men, women, and children became sick in weeks. The colonies' technology was not as advanced as their Capitals. Half of the world's population died off in the first few months after the end of the war. The American capital did not help the colonies as the European helped theirs. Billions of people died overnight.

Years after the tragedies, genetic anomalies spread from the barren waste of Asia and Africa. The bodies that were left intact were brought back changed, deformed, murderous. The anomalies ran on all fours. Their skin fell off in patches and they grew hair over their muscles. Their teeth fit into elongated jaw frames that made them so inhuman. The anomalies invaded Europe first quickly decimating 2/3 of its people. The only humans to survive were in the Capitals. Their reinforced doors protecting them from the screams of their dying friends from the other side. Those with runes etched upon their skin had magical power called Runics survived the onslaught in the villages, cursing the Capitals name as they survived the onslaughts.

The creatures could not reach America, giving them the time they needed. They had heard communications from Europe of the bloodbath and prepared protectors. The Capital dispatched special bioengineered humans to attack and eradicate this new threat across the seas (for Runics were not native to the Americas). Humans, altered to see in the dark and had special strength as their enemy, were honored for this testing. Needless to say, they were a success. The genetic anomalies, werewolves the old people called them, were destroyed and fled into the dark of the night. The Capital made an organization to protect the colonies of America, itself, and for a price: Europe. Calling themselves the Riding Hood Organization, they were the only defense the humans had against the wolves- or so they loved to claim. For one hundred years the RHO has set up academies across the continents, changing recruits to bios and have slaughtered the genetic werewolves.

In Europe, however, there are some who are realizing that there is not simply one kind of werewolf anymore. Those that call themselves Shifters have sprouted, being able to control their impulses and even retake human form. Some have speculated the Runics are to blame but the party has denied such allegations. Shifters are rallying toward peace, but with such blood now on the wolve's hands, it is hard for the RHO to take them seriously. Whoever is to blame, one thing is certain: werewolves are rising up again and taking back the zones humans have painstakingly fought for. Deaths are rolling across the land, and there seems to be no end in sight to the sudden spike of chaos.
