A Ruined World

One year ago, the world as we know it ended in fire, smoke, and hunger. The Plague—indeed, the plague to end all plagues—invaded our world. In its wake, the undead rose and began to feast on humanity. Dark things crept from the shadows of fear and legend. Zombies both human and animal—and some hideous abominations that could not be classified—infested every city across the world. Global war raged, but it was lost before it began. The Plague could blight food and water supplies. The undead were tireless, capable of infecting the living with a bite or scratch, and endless in supply. Some power of the Plague sustained their festering bodies, making them impervious to time and weather.

The war is lost. Society is collapsing around us. Survivors now eke out a living in a world gone savage. Outside of the rare cities and so-called safe zones, bastions of stability in the wilderness, danger lurks at every corner. Even inside the strongholds of humanity, the Plague can strike, and topple a kingdom in a night.

You are one of the brave, the strong, and the lucky. You have survived the initial chaos wrought by the Plague. Now you must find a place in this new world, surviving by your wits, luck, and the strength of unity—or falling victim to monsters, clawing at one another until all that remains are bloody ruins of the world before.

Not all the monsters in this world are undead.
