Lore

December 15th, 2028.

Thirteen years have passed since Oculurubrus, or Red Eye left our civilization rotting, our cities falling, and our very notion of life broken. We watched as vines and greenery consumed our mighty towers, as corpses inhabited our homes and entire countries went dark, but in some corners of the world, new civilizations began to thrive, new hopes and dreams formed - one such place in Monroe County, New York, a place divided by uneasy treaties, differing cultures, and secrets lying dormant under dirt and ruin.

You are one of many survivors, a wanderer, a mercenary, a raider, a hero, a villain, and this is your story of revelation and survival.

What will you become?

NOTE: What Remains is the sequel to the lore What We Become which we ran from April 2019 to September 2019. What We Become kicked off a few weeks into the apocalypse; February 2015. It ended a year into the apocalypse; early 2016. It is now 2031 in What Remains, as of 12/17/2021. We are 16 years into the apocalypse.
Here is a link to the timeline from What We Become, going over the very beginning of the outbreak.
