Ravaged by war, famine, plague and other disasters humanity fled earth in generational colonyships. One such ship was
Forlorn Hope.
The Benevolent Eyes guided and controlled humanity. After a long journey they arrived at the preselected planet of
Ospur. The preceding terraforming ship had not completed it's work and the crew had to wait.
Some of humanity, known as
Reapers, would not wait to receive their inheritance and mutinied against their masters. In this rebellion some of the Eyes were destroyed. Humanity descended to
Ospur. The remaining Eyes descended to
Ospur with the loyal fragments of humanity.
Adomos the leader of the eyes was lost in the mutiny. The remaining Eyes began to struggle against each other. Eventually some Eyes decide to lead their followers into migrations into unknown lands. Others wandered off alone. A select few remained with the descendants of the loyal crew known as
the Hop Kru.
For a time humanity prospered. In time the remaining Eyes encountered the descendants of the
Reapers in the form of
The Reaper Imperium. Old disagreements led to a terrible war. This war destroyed entire cities. The
Hop Kru split in to various inhabitants of
Hopefall.
Now the survivors eke out a living among the ruins of their ancestors. The
Utopians live in their ancient dome cities and send out clone patrols to harass the inhabitants of the ruins. The clever but fearful
Scavs struggle to avoid the much stronger forces around them and scrape together a life. Violent and savage bands of
Ravagers rove the ruins taking what they can from whomever they can.
Pariahs stand tall as distrusted but revered armored sentinels that oppose Utopian forces with their own weaponry. Beneath the ruins churn ancient subterranean cities full of the secretive
Sanctified.
