Fact: 1 in 1,000 people has a natural immunity to the Fury Virus. That means in the world 6,706,999 people are immune. 30,382 in the US. 4,301 in Colorado. 2,506 in Denver... The Fury Virus was released early in 2012, by religious fanatics looking to speed up the apocalypse. Their idea was to purge the Earth of sinners, people unworthy to stand upon it. Those that were left would obviously be the righteous, those who had earned a place in heaven. Their plans turned against them. The virus ran rampant, uncontrollable. No continent, no country, no city was spared. The infection spread everywhere, killing without mercy. In the end, only a small percentage of people were left alive. They were immune, but they were not the righteous. They were simply the ones who were lucky enough to the biology to fight off the infection. Then there were the others, a small percent of the population, that were immune to the killing effects of the virus, but were still changed. Changed into beings made up purely of madness and rage. They killed without thought or hesitation. Those that survived the virus without succumbing to madness were now forced to fight for the lives they were trying to rebuild. The creatures, those that were changed, were called Eaters, due to their appetite for living human flesh. A group of survivors made the drive up Mount Evans, to the University of Denver's Meyer-Womble Observatory. There, they started a new life. For the last eight months, they've worked tirelessly, building walls to keep their new home safe. What they can't make or grow on their own, they raid from the mostly empty city of Denver. The Eaters still come, roving packs of them looking for flesh to sate their hunger. Those that are left must depend on each other to survive. Welcome to Haven. |
