Galactic Date 57,891. A stray shot from the Furan Capital Ship Through The Eternal Darkness sends a laboratory module containing an unfinished bioterror weapon careening into space.2017 AD. The laboratory module collides with Earth, releasing its contents. Billions die as nearly 10% of all life on Earth mutates into monsters.2019 AD. An Asteroid strikes the Earth, releasing the Hunter Killer race upon an already devastated planet.2024 AD. Humanity stands on the brink of either victory or defeat. With the aid of the greater Galaxy, humanity has begun to push back in earnest. However, Humanity remains fractured, divided into various factions and countries of varying sizes. The United Nations is the predominant alliance, backed by the might of the Intrepid, and acting as humanities representative.What was once Mount Everest is now known as Point Zero, through which humanity connects to the wider galaxy, and the centre point of all human civilization: both good and bad. It is here that a 16 year old girl, fresh from the refugee camps, arrives by Mag-Lev....A Forum Quest created and run by Sage_of_Eyes on SpaceBattles.com, who also runs AGG:CORE. Can be found here. |

Mass Super-Empowering Event: The Bio-Terror Weapon, aka the Infection, turned 10% of the global population into monsters, and gave the rest superpowers... at the cost of them turning into monsters under certain, common circumstances. |

Gods Need Prayer Badly: Gods were born from human belief. Which ended up killing them when the massive loss in population resulted in their followers dying, and the following backlash against religion. |

| | A Geek's Guide: DeathWorld Earth (Roleplay) / int_4dbd3706 |

Clap Your Hands If You Believe: Magic is the result of human beliefs, hopes and fears. Convince enough people of something, and it'll come into existence in some shape or form. Which has sadly resulted in a massive increase of monsters as a result of the world's current status. |

comment |
Fantastic Fighting Style: As a result of the change in human abilities thanks to the Infection and new technology, various new Martial Arts have come into existence, often based on pre-existing ones. Only three are named, however: Furieux Pilier(Savate), Yureru Ki(Judo) and the Death Dance(original). |

Global Currency |
| | A Geek's Guide: DeathWorld Earth (Roleplay) / int_c57b21f9 |
comment |
Global Currency: The Credit, which while not supplanting individual currencies, is essentially the currency of the Earth as a whole, and is used by large businesses and governments due to its high value. The "Galactic Standard Credit" is similar, only applying to the entire Galaxy, and being considerably more valuable, and less used, as a result. |
