Everyone saw World War III coming. No one could say they were surprised when the entire planet erupted in chaos in 2012. What did take the world by surprise was the release of the Genesis Virus in 2020. No one remembers who created it, but it tore the world apart, simultaneously ending the war. A viral holocaust, it killed billions. Many animals and plants died as well and the world eventually became a barren wasteland.
However, there were survivors. A fraction of these possessed the "M-Gene", or a gene that, when introduced to the Genesis Virus, created abnormal abilities/powers in the possessor. The others were terrified of these people, and many of the "mutants" were killed as a result of this fear.
Though the world was broken and deeply wounded, life went on. Some survivors banded together and established the settlement of Eden on the ruins of an unknown city. With time, it prospered into a bustling citystate under the leadership of a man named Malcolm Liebert, who created the Sons of Adam. They were, and still are, Eden's only political party; a totalitarian regime, hungry for power and paranoid about keeping it. They come down swiftly and harshly on anything that might challenge their authority; anything different or dangerous.
Currently, the year is 2097. Eden is ran by Malcolm Liebert's grandchild and its population is just over 30 million.
