In the wake of the Cascade Event, the world as we knew it ended. Nations fell. Technology collapsed. Skies turned strange. And from the ashes of civilization, they came—Cryptids. Creatures of folklore, shadow, and scientific failure. Born from radiation, memory, and myth, these beings roam the hollowed-out ruins of once-great cities and prowl the forests that reclaimed them. By the year 2036, society has fractured. Survivors have clustered into five hardened factions—militant, tribal, or nomadic—each with their own rules and desperate visions for the future. The most powerful among them is the Iron Union, a fortress-state carved from former U.S. military remnants, clinging to structure amid chaos. But even within its borders, danger lingers. Outside, the world belongs to the cryptids. Some hunt. Some watch. Some whisper through cracked windows and drag wanderers into the dark. Most are never seen—only felt. Electricity is rare. Food is scavenged or grown in guarded greenhouses. Roads are deathtraps. Silence is safety. And through this broken world walks Will Darrow, a quiet, stubborn young man with a cybernetic arm and a sister to protect. He doesn’t belong to any squad, carries no rank, and doesn’t quite fit the mold of a hero. But he’s learning that survival isn’t about strength—it’s about knowing when to run, when to fight, and when to face the things that no one else dares look at. Because the cryptids aren’t just beasts. They’re evolving. And some of them remember you.
