HARBINGER

In 2028, a horrific pathogen began to spread amongst the world.

It directly attacks the brain and causes the infected to lose emotional capacity and general awareness.

Many died, and many just watched.

The virus was quickly researched by several pharmaceutical companies,

the scientists at work were not able to leave their facilities for risk of exposure.

Soon after, one of the companies, Vida Horizon had begun work on an experimental vaccine and cure for the virus.

Which would not only build resistance, but reverse the effects of infection.

Failure after failure, hope was nearly lost. The death count was reaching the millions and a working cure is yet to be developed.

Vida Horizon began testing its experimental vaccine, the CEO herself opted in as the test subject after being exposed to the virus.

When she was injected, it had a terrible side-effect. Her flesh morphed and bubbled as her mind was reduced to a psychotic, primitive state.

She managed to take four innocent lives before being neutralized by on-site police. The incident became widespread knowledge, but the cause was never revealed.

Several years go by, barely anyone clinging onto hope for change, a successful vaccine is finally produced, and is administered globally.

The virus is a thing of the past, but the wounds it left behind remain festering.

2034, Vida Horizons closes its doors after a federal investigation exposes a rogue employee for stealing the experimental vaccine and selling it as a bio-weapon

to an undisclosed terrorist group in South-West Vonamoore, which is a small, poverty-ridden country far north of Siberia.

The group is yet to reveal themselves and remains in the darkness for several months as they work to improve their new weapon.

For months they are silent, for years the US and its allies fail to trace the mysterious group. They stop all investigations, but keep their guard high.

2040, the silence is broken. An overwhelming bio-terrorism onslaught just hit a north-eastern American city, YOUR city.

A gas floods through the east side, causing those that breath it to turn into the braindead.

Men with gas masks storm every apartment and home, slaughtering who and whatever they can.

You grab your pistol from your safe and as much ammo as you can carry, and set out to escape the hell you once called home.
