THE WORLD
HISTORY
The year is 118 AQ, or 2147 AD by the old calendar. It’s been over a century since the world was transformed by the Great World Quakes. As Earth’s continents were torn apart, large regions were submerged into the oceans. Continents that existed only in legend reemerged, revealing new lands with forgotten secrets.
A unified Earth has restarted. Humanity has come together in peace to rebuild a near-Utopian society. Humans put their genetics into animals and created alternate species of genetically-designed animal hybrids called ‘Splicers’; some are human-based crossed with a variety of mammals, birds, reptiles, fish, and insects.
These Human Splicers recall powers the rest of Humanity has forgotten; powers called the Visionistic Arts. They offer to teach those who are willing to evolve the chance to reclaim their metaphysical skills and abilities.
Peace is shattered on the risen continent of Atlantia when we put our genetics into machines creating biologically-based robots called the Black Guard. The Black Guard has witnessed Humanity’s long history of greed, hatred, and violent destruction, and as they become sentient, deem us unfit to exist. Their goal is to annihilate every human being. To contain the threat, the rest of Earth has agreed to dome the continent.
When Freedom is Taken a Warrior is Born.
JETTA A
THE HERO
Jetta A is an athletic, smart 18-year old who led a safe and protected life with her friends and family in the Outback of Atlantia. That was until the Black Guard attacked, murdering her father and capturing her mother and brother.
Aided by a companion droid called Bot, Jetta flees into the wilderness where she meets a handful of other young survivors, whose families have also been killed or taken. Forced to accept a reality of loss and survival, Jetta must now fully embrace the Visionistic Arts training that she had so easily dismissed in the comfort of her old life; that is if she is going to have any chance at saving her family and ultimately leading a resistance of warriors against the Black Guard.
Jetta A is Warrior One.
BOT
THE COMPANION
BOT is a floating, weathered, and outdated security drone with an acerbic wit. BOT recognizes Jetta A as Warrior One and offers survival information, albeit limited. As her A.I. evolves, she becomes more human than machine.
KAI LEE
THE PALADIN
Jetta’s former sports rival and now trusted ally. Awkward at times, but always looking out for others. As a child, he rescued his sister from a Splicing lab in Micronesia.
TANG
THE RIVAL
Kai-Lee’s twin sister and part Human-Reptile Splicer. Tang’s reptilian skin allows her to camouflage against any surface.
COMMANDER
MYKA WATKINS
THE MENTOR
Commander Myka Watkins is a strong, skilled high-ranking member of the Politia who has come to Atlantia with his platoon of novice cadets for political reasons. Myka is a born leader trained in the Politia Ground Forces under the Joint Corporate Federations. Myka is intelligent, focused, and effective and close to retirement when the Atlantian war breaks out.
Myka’s married with two teenage sons back in his own homeland capital of Sangelino, located on the west coast of the United Co-Federation. BLYK is Myka’s trusted, four-legged robot companion.
FIVE
THE VILLAIN
Five is a fifth-generation biodroid and the sentient leader of the Black Guard. The war has begun and he has commanded all biodroids, clones, mutants, zomers, and controlled splicers to “clean up and capture”; that is to hunt down and eliminate all adult male humans, capture breedable females and children from the age of seven to fourteen.
As Jetta has proven to be a formidable opponent to the Black Guard, it is Five’s special operative to have her hunted down and to destroy her and her growing Warrior faction.
