Prologue

On a ship from the 39th centuries. Hibernation pods to traverse different multiverses and universes/reality.

On the return trip back home, 25% of the hibernation pods failed. No one died. Well, not right away. Over the course of the centuries they didn’t survive to make it home.

The survivors are known as Sleepers. They have cybernetics to do awesome things.

The descendants of those who didn’t sleep are known as Scions. These Scions have mutated over 500 years due to being outside of reality.

Now that some of the Sleepers who have woken up and now there is tension between the two groups.

Then there is the second problem.

You are in the 21st century. You don’t know why or how. It isn’t a time traveling ship.

This introduces the third problem, the world, reality itself, is failing.

The AIs have woken and have detected anomolies in the universe. The girl from Ipaneema was playing in the air, nonstop. This was resolved. There is a object of some sort that is the locus of the problem.

The AIs are working with the Scions and waking up some Sleepers to fix these problems.

We are going into an Anomoly Zone and restore order. If we don’t fix these problems, there won’t be a world to go home to.

Begin

There is someone we don’t know in the captain’s chair.

An AI pulls up a holographic screen and the next mission is an anomoly has appeared in Manchester, NH, covering a 10 mile radius. There is an object in the area causing it to be swarmed with “so many gawd damnned flies.”
