Story

In the year 2014, a fungal-based, brain-altering pandemic spread across the US and the world, turning people into hideous, violent monsters. In a matter of months, 60% of the world's population fell to the virus along with many of its governments. Panic and hysteria spread. Six months after the outbreak, with the US Government in complete shambles, the Federal Disaster Response Agency (FEDRA) was put in charge. They instated martial law and with control over the US Military turned the democracy into a police state. They established quarantine zones throughout the US and assigned survivors accordingly under the guise of keeping them safe. Although it was safe inside these new city walls, some were unhappy living under the strict rules of the military.

A few years after the establishment of the zones, some of these malcontents gathered the courage to organize and formed the Fireflies, a force that would grow immensely in numbers over time. Their goal was to re instate the branches of the US government and look to for a cure for the Cordyceps Brain Infection (CBI).

Our story begins 10 years after the initial outbreak. People, for the most part, have settled into this new way of living. Some choose the safety, but strict military rule of the zones. Some forge their own path outside the walls scavenging for what they need. Some lie in between. How are you surviving?
