In 2012, the world as we knew it came to a violent halt. A flash of light and the utter destruction of a peaceful, almost forgotten city marked the beginning of a war that would consume the globe in devastation. While countries rushed to pick and choose sides, its people remained on edge as the years dragged on and The War ravaged the planet. While the war became a natural fact of life to many, there were those still who knew that the end was barely around the corner – and they were right. The end came in 2025, nearly thirteen years after it had begun. The warring countries had unwittingly set off dozens of nuclear warheads at each other, and while most of the world had been all but totally demolished by the end results, no one could have imagined the amount of damage done to what had been known as the United States. It was in Europe that humanity would find its hope in the form of a new body of government – the World Government was born out of the ashes of the past, and was the beacon of light meant to guide the surviving peoples of the western world. Welcome to Bitter Season and all it encompasses; a world struggling to survive after a disastrous nuclear war but thirty years prior. With the events of the past year, the social climate of the few remaining Cities has changed dramatically. The World Government serves as a dictatorship in disguise, monitoring and defining every move made by its citizens. Tension between dissident, neutral, and government-allied parties is building. Rebellion is imminent.
