The Long Long Sequel

A world in which humanity has met its end.


A world in which everyone has died.
A world in which nothing more can die.
In which naught stirs but walking corpses.

The protagonists of Nechronica are the girls of this world unfortunate enough to possess hearts-the Dolls.
To put it simply, it is a game in which the players become zombie girls and fight against other zombies.
The one who caused the dead to wake- the ruler of this shattered world- is the Necromancer.
The Necromancer serves as both the master of the game and the archenemy.
For it could be none other than the Necromancer who gave hearts to the Dolls.
For in a world filled with mindless puppets, the Dolls-
they alone whom possess wills of their own- are no more than toys.
For the tragic comedy wrought by the foes sent against them is a delightful spectacle.
Since Dolls are already dead, they will find no rest when they are broken.
The peace of death came to an end long ago, just as did the world itself.

As we have a cup of tea, beneath these skies as gray as lead


let us tell the tale of this long, long epilogue.

+1000 CP to Get Through the Madness


Necromancy
The world revolves around a central point- that technology allows one "to make a living corpse.”

‘Necromancy’ and ‘undead’ might give an occult impression but is the product of science and technology.
Necromancy is a technology that was established before human civilization collapsed. It is also the largest and longest
lasting heritage that was left behind by human life. This technology directly allows the download of a personality.

In the middle of the 21st century, explorers discovered a new species of slime mold with seemingly intelligent, rapid
movement. Thereby nanomachines stemming from this mold’s ‘intelligence’ were realized. Most of the body of the
undead created by necromancy is configured by slime mold nanomachines. Countless amounts of these nanomachines
are able to move the body of an undead. In addition, it has a property of forming a network of complex relationships
within itself making it possible to build highly advanced computers and similar devices. The slime mold community
works as both a single entity and a collective intelligence able to function as a modular brain. Moreover, due to its
complex nature, the mold can function as a brain and nervous system without regard to the rest of the body. The
zombie cliché of destroying the brain does not work in this universe. Each cell of the body contains the slime mold,
and as such destroying parts of the body will not destroy the entire organism; the organism retains its functions albeit
at reduced speed and power. If the slime mold community is unified or foreign tissue is integrated, the entire organism
can be easily reconstructed; this is the alleged ‘undead’ of the Nechronica universe.

Another pillar of Necromancy is personality downloading technology, perfected in the 22nd century. As its name
suggests, this is the means and processes to copy and transfer one’s personality into another vessel such as a machine
or clone. A slime mold computer is able to hold the vast amounts of data the human ego encompasses. By using the
slime mold computer as well as personality downloading technology, the human mind is able to function without a
brain; instead, residing in the slime mold itself.

State of the world - History of the collapse


In the mid-21st century, nanomachines are realized. Engineering, medical science and biology as a whole is changed
forever. However, limited access to basic needs such as water in developing countries lead to wars between poorer
countries, the tinderbox dried by the dwindling fossil fuels in the Earth.

The conflict continues well into the 22nd century. All hell breaks loose when a limited nuclear war is started between
South American countries based on the availability of oil. Although it is not the cause of the great apocalyptic ending,
it certainly starts the ball rolling. The world, having never seen devastation on this scale since the end of the Second
World War, begin a worldwide movement to eliminate nuclear weapons.

2130—the first incidents of humans being attacked by the undead begin. Although the creator of these undead is still a
mystery, they operate like wild animals, free from the organized influence of a Necromancer. The people of the world,
now that the cat is out of the bag, declare the end of the world is nigh; they are more right than the common bystander
thinks.

A destructive cult, out to set the world on fire, appears out of the mist. They successfully initiate nuclear terrorism by
detonating nuclear weapons in major cities. Due to the rising tensions between countries, it is an all-out declaration of
war; another, much larger nuclear exchange starts. Its large-scale damage is like nothing the world had seen before,
the global environment is subjected a large blow. Nevertheless, it was not to the extent that mankind will perish.

By 2140, mankind finally agrees to ban the use of nuclear weapons, the ownership of nuclear weapons, and the
construction of nuclear weapons. However, with the swath of fallout from the previous nuclear war is any indication,
the conflict over the remaining clean resources had been steadily intensifying. The military leaders turn to different
methods of achieving superweapon power status, and in 2141, the North American superpowers and Asian
superpowers turn to the use of undead armies. This is the moment when Necromancy became widespread as a tool.
Necromancy was attractive to all parties because it was very inexpensive, compared to the maintenance and upkeep of
nuclear weapons, living armies, and vehicles. Because the slime mold can be active with only slight nutrition, it cost
less to feed, maintain and use an army. Of course, you do not also use fuel and oil for tanks and fighters. Although the
undead body is vulnerable to wear, a steady stream of biological material quickly mitigates the problem. And, in a
world where there are 20 billion people inhabiting Earth, in a time of war the ‘biological material’ is plentiful.

The war doctrine quickly reverted to trench warfare, as both sides would fight a war of attrition, won by power,
numbers and resources. The re-use of bodies was considered to be ethical, but the opposite was greater with the use of
propaganda. "Using the corpses of your families, the powers wage a war at the expense of the living.” Other countries,
eager to develop this necromancy technology, produce a wide variety of horrific military undead units. In addition,
with the advent and usage of necromancy, research into biological weapons designed to combat and augment the
undead re-started.

It can be said that the greatest loss mankind had faced so far was the loss of military morals, thanks to Necromancy. If
the masses say that it is alright for a corpse to move and fight, it was only a matter of time until more heinous
inventions were brought to light. One such method is ‘slime mold personality downloading’, which is a form of brain
scanning which is stored in the miraculous slime mold’s data matrices. The idea of personality downloading, and then
uploading into an undead body, gives rise to the first notion of ‘artificial immortality’.

Unsurprisingly, low-scale conflict sprung once again. As long as it was anything but a nuclear weapon, it was fielded
in combat. Even the most austere of weapon ideas and technologies were tested in the field. Earthshakers, devices that
destabilize the continental shelf, were used in East Asia. Insect weapons, biological weapons, viruses were used
heavily in Eastern Europe and its surrounding areas. Unofficially, the nuclear weapons ban had failed. Too late, it was
realized that nuclear weapons provide the deterrence so these horrific weapons would not be used.

2155, and finally 130 nuclear weapons had been exploded in Europe. But while it wasn’t clear who had pressed the
button, European countries had deigned all their remaining resources to the war effort, and left the kill switch on. The
Final World War begins, a war of the dead versus the living. The anarchy under the nuclear winter does not affect the
undead soldiers that march. Undead soldiers indiscriminately attack human beings, wiping out 98% of humanity.
Mankind is critically endangered.

Nuclear winter is finished by 2182, and there are a few humans living in fallout shelters. But the world above ground
was far from being silent and dead. The Necromancers that had survived the nuclear holocaust and harsh winter now
begins a fight against each other, for territory and similar, primal wants. Necromancers also must contend with the
abandoned biological weapons, designed to eat the undead. Humans without Necromancy technologies are essentially
dead. This era considers that if it is ‘active’, then it must be a Necromancer. And if even a Necromancer had hoarded
every bit of slime mold for her central computer, much of human culture, history and literature are invariably lost.

Turn of the century, 2200. Necromancers have given up fighting. Nothing is living. They are too tired even to fight for
hegemony, instead opting to retreat into their own domiciles, separated by hundreds of miles of devastation. No one
tries anything, nothing new is made. There is no new history, nothing to add to the thread of time. This world is a
sequel to the bitter end of the last. It is the play stage of ‘Nechronica’.

As said before, sometimes the undead had gone beyond the control of their Necromancer. Discarded Horrors and
Savants, thrown away to make room for processing power, these ungoverned undead are sometimes encountered by
the characters.

For the rulers of this undead world, the Necromancers are holed up in their strongholds. Their vigilance is strong, not
needing to know any more about the outside world than is considered necessary. Necromancers had adopted Cartesian
logic; where there is a blockage of information, where there is no input or in some cases, output, the only thing that
exists is oneself, the Necromancer. The days that followed immediately after the war have closely matched the current
time. No Necromancer has enough energy to wage war as they had during the End. Nonetheless, they had come to an
understanding. If a Necromancer becomes aware of another Necromancer close by, they pretend not to see each other,
and go their separate ways. This mutual non-interference is what had kept the world stable past the many years of
inactivity. It doesn’t matter if the two necromancers share similar ideals and power, invariably they would rather not
be close to each other. It should be noted that it is still unknown that humans still exist when the story begins, and is
completely up to the Game Master to decide if they exist *biologically*. Outside of biological existence, it should be
relatively easy to come across a human personality; whereas Legion and Horrors are expendable, Savants and Dolls
are precious to Necromancers and as such many of them still exist.

Name and Age


Dolls are all female for the most part but it's not necessary to specify your gender.
The dolls of old were made to resemble either girls or animals. Necromancers, too, make them in the shape of cute
girls. Some of them may have been intended to be boys but the difference in appearance is a subtle one.
In this world inhabited by only the dead, the Necromancers too wish to remember the comforts of childhood.

A Doll's "Age" describes their outside appearance. This is not necessarily the same as the age of their Heart.
It is possible to have a spirit that acts as if twenty years old within a body that appears only six.
The reverse is equally possible.
"Age" refers to the age you were when you died, and is usually between 8 and 17.
If you're unsure, roll a d8 and add 7 to the result. This is the age of your doll.

Sisters
Dolls generally don't awaken just by themselves. Those Dolls that awaken in the same place and at the same time as
them are their Sisters. As a Doll left alone would not be able to keep her sanity for long, this is the greatest blessing
the Necromancers give them. However, perhaps the true reason is merely to prolong the amusement that they bring.

You may start with 1d8-4 (Min. 1) Sisters for Free made with starting Skills as normal and 400 CP to spend.
And/Or
You may Import Three Companions for Free who start with starting Skills as normal and 400 CP each.
And/Or
Import as many Companions as you want for 200 CP and they start with starting Skills as normal and 400 CP each.

Dolls' Memories
Though Dolls have lost most of their memories of their previous life, they have not lost them all. Just a few memories
of their previous life remain. Each has a couple fragments of their memories they hold on to dearly. A blue sky, a kiss,
mailing a letter, and standing in the rain are but a few ideas for memories.

The Dolls also know of the existence of the art of necromancy and realize that they themselves are undead. They are
also able to guess that the Necromancers animated them.

These are the foundation of your Doll. They are the patches that hold the heart of your Doll together. Select Two
Memories, drawn from your past. They are now a permanent part of you you can never forget. It’ll be what helps keep
you sane and “Human”. Should you descend into madness too quickly though, your Memories won’t be to helpful.
Locations - The landscape
The world of Nechronica is a sea of contamination, land of fallout, and sky of deadly particulates. The sky is almost
always covered by dark yellowish clouds, and the sun rarely shines through. The sea is pale, shiny with the film of oil
and contamination on it. Countless amounts of flotsam and jetsam are washed ashore. The climate is always unstable
due to weather weapons deployed during the Final War, some still active to bring sudden rainstorms. Rain that falls
from the sky is black, as is the greenish fog that blankets cities and battlefields. Ruins of human civilization are nearly
everywhere but there are still wilderness areas where long-dead forests still stand.

This world is not strictly a world of death. Quickly evolved descendants of biological weapons grow in forests, slowly
reclaiming the world once dominated by humans. In particular, mutated plants and insects are common. Because they
have evolved their own after the final war, many have become entirely different species than the biological weapons
that mankind had created. Many undergone various changes beyond appearance, they had regain their fertility even
through the lab-induced infertility created long ago-or to quote a classic movie, ‘nature finds a way’. More often than
not, these biological weapons are much more unpredictable and harder to kill than an undead by the characters in this
story. It can be said that the theory of biological weapons developed to fight the undead had been proven, quite
ironically.

Roll 1d8 for your starting Location or Pay 100 PC to choose where to start on Earth.
1: North America
You get to start anywhere in America or Canada. America is a bunch of blasted desert and Canada is a frozen
wasteland filled with the burnt remains of trees. A surprising amount of undead still war with one another over urban
areas no one has tried to claim to decades, still following orders from long dead commanders.
2: South America
A fetid hellscape of weaponized flora and fauna have taken over what is left of South America. What isn’t glowing
nuclear craters is endless miles of ever growing jungle in constant strife with itself, consuming and growing over itself
again and again. Not surprisingly there is little undead presence here due to the crazy plant life.
3: Europe
Not much different then the rest of the world. The skeletal remains of the old cities litter the country side. More
wastelands and more undead. Some areas are still locked in a perpetual Ice Age as rogue Weather Manipulators sputter
to life periodically.
4: Africa
Not much has changed here except for the lack of wild life. Its even more desert now and crawling with undead more
animal than man. Still a disturbing number of undead active here due to nearly 90% of the population being ‘drafted’.
5: China
Like most of the world, China is filled with the burnt remains of trees, desert wastelands and the occasional fungal or
forest patch around the wetter areas. Currently has the highest concentration of undead in the world. Also still one of
the most urban places in the world with cities overlapping cities. Be careful not to get lost in the graveyard of cities.
6: Russia
A frozen tundra where even the Undead have a hard time functioning. The skeletal remains of Russia's cities hold
what few undead there are here roaming the underground metro and such. Highest concentration of cyborg and robotic
undead can be found here. Also a high number of still active bunkers and missile silos for what good they will do now.
7: Australia
The last bastion of Humanity to fall. Not that anyone remembers. Not anyone alive. Still more desert and undead. An
oddly high number and assortment of jury-rigged vehicles still roam here. Strange. Also the last known headquarters
of the original team that created the Corpse Manipulation Technique. Who knows what else they cooked up lays here.
8: Free Choice
You get to start anywhere you wish. Any place that had a high concentration of people will also have a higher
concentration of undead so be careful. I hear Madagascar's fungal forests are lovely most times of the year.
Positions
Dolls do not wander the world on their own; they have sisters with them. Among their fellow sisters, each of the Dolls
fills a spiritual role- this is known as their Position.
From the six positions below, select a Position appropriate for your Doll.

• Alice: Akin to people, akin to girls, their warmth inspires their sisters.
• Holic: Irregulars whose egotistical desires have driven them to madness.
• Automaton: Combat Dolls who have suppressed their selves in order to avoid suffering.
• Junk: Veteran Dolls who have given up countless things, yet refuse to let go of it all.
• Court: Tactical Dolls who analyze the situation calmly and make sound decisions.
• Sorority: Natural leaders who bring together their sisters' hearts and strength.
• Drop In: You are an anomaly in this world. Will you put it to rest or try to save it?

Skills
Positions and Classes are not mere labels.
The Dolls themselves can learn and acquire abilities that are not dependent on their body parts.
These abilities are known as Skills.
You gain 1 Skill from your Position for Free, 2 from your Main Class for Free and 1 from your Sub
Class for Free. You can't take the same Skill twice.
Only Dolls which have chosen the same Class as their Main and Sub Classes may acquire that Class's
"Special Skill." This Skill is the unique ability of Dolls who have specialized in that Class.
Dolls gain Skills from their chosen Position and Classes Discounted price for half.

a well stocked laboratory.

Class
Undead are created with a variety of types of armament.
In order to oppose the Undead, Dolls themselves are given reinforcements,
the seven trends in the manner in which Dolls are reinforced are known as Classes.
• Dolls must choose two classes; a Main Class which determines their combat style, and a Sub Class which strongly
influences it. These can both be the same Class. If you choose two different Classes, please be sure to decide which
one is the Main Class.
• Stacy: Dedicated and immortal, these girls are stout defenders.

• Thanatos: Goddesses of the battlefield who excel at close combat.

• Gothic: Predators who engage in the heresy of cannibalism.

• Requiem: Gun-using Dolls who are dedicated to ranged combat.

• Baroque: Bizarre girls whose bodies are twisted by mutations.

• Romanesque: Rotting princesses who dance with unparalleled grace.

• Psychedelic: Misunderstood with powers distort the laws of nature.

Skills purchased from your chosen Classes are Discounted at half price.
Only Dolls which have chosen the same Class as their Main and Sub Classes may acquire that
Class's "Special Skill." This Skill is the unique ability of Dolls who have specialized in that Class.

Each class also offers Free Reinforcement Points. Each Jumper and their Companions/Sisters gets these Free
Reinforcement Parts plus either 1 Free Tier 1 Reinforcement Part of their choice or they can upgrade a previous
Tier 1 to a Tier 2 OR a Tier 2 to a Tier 3.

Reinforcement Parts
A Doll is separated into two kinds of Parts.
Basic Parts and Reinforcement Parts.
Basic Parts are what compose your body and in turn come in four
sections: Head, Arms, Torso and Legs.
When a Reinforcement Part refers to being added or installed
somewhere, its one of those four sections. If not stated you may install
them anywhere.
Reinforcement Parts are purchased during Doll creation and are very
rarely found attached to enemies.

The main difference between the two is that normal Parts are easily
replaceable either by simple taking them from other Undead or
grafting them from a Sister. Several Position and Class abilities also
let you replace, regrown or regain Basic Parts over time or for a
simple cost such as consuming mass.

Reinforcement Parts are different in the fact that they were specially
crafted or created for your Doll or the Undead they were attached to
and or wielded by. If damaged or destroyed, they take a lot more time,
effort and resources to repair or replace.
This can be for a variety of reasons but the simplest would be to
attribute it to lack of proper or rare resources of which you would be
aware you are lacking.

Ending for Sisters


Whatever option chose, you can take your Sisters with you. They count as Companions now and
anywhere is probably better then here.
What? You wanted more? Alright, alright.
Any Sisters you claim as Companions gain new bodies upon leaving here with you.
If they identified as male then they receive such a body. Females receive female bodies.
They are still children though. Now its up to you to show them the life they should of received.
Notes:
What the hell is a Slime Mold Computer? TL DR version: Basically someone found a Slime Mold that showed some
amazing potential so they made a nanomachine goo that mimic's said slime mold.

What the hell is with the +0 CP Drawback? TL DR: Originally we only had a partial translation of the setting and it all
pointed to everything being magical in nature for resurrecting the dead. Fast forward 2 years and we got a final
translation that made it all Nano-Tech. Its simply a drawback to allow people to grandfather their magic builds.

Undead can be broadly divided into the following four types.


• Legion – The rank and file undead of the Necromancer’s forces; however, it is not uncommon to see them
independent of their long-dead Necromancers. Built with a minimum of slime mold, they always operate in packs-
larger numbers means more processing power, and by extension more processing power means better horde tactics.
‘Horde tactics’ are used to simply eliminate an enemy; if they are controlled by a Necromancer, they carry back the
parts to the ‘nest’ for repurposement. If they are independent, they simply kill anything in their way and leave the
body, like hunting for sport. A cruel and embittered existence, larger hordes of Legion have been known to develop
hive minds, their intelligence sometimes on par with that of Dolls.

• Horror – The Horror is the next step in evolution of Legion. Whereas Legion are completely expendable, Horrors are
expensive in resources as well as mold, and are brutish and efficient when it comes to killing. With a minimum of
personality and a maximum of combat power, they are the strong-arms of the ended World; a Doll would have a
difficult fight with one of these.

• Savant – Technically the next step up from a Horror as well as the Doll’s alter ego in more ways than one, the Savant
is a corrupted personality with its mind bent on one thing; killing its doppelganger, or the True Doll. Also unlike
Dolls, Savants are under complete control of the Necromancer; all the NC has to do is put in a personality value, crank
it up to eleven, and point it at the nearest Doll party. Savants will unquestioningly obey the order of a Necromancer.

• Doll – As explained before, the Doll is the portmanteau of a stable personality and a collection of Memories, many
of which are not the original body’s. All *strong* Necromancers possess the capability to make Dolls, but require
special materials such as the Think Tank (a data drive full of human memories) as well as large amounts of mold.
Dolls think and speak for themselves, and as a result a band of Dolls can turn on their own Necromancer and
potentially defeat it (but nobody has done it… yet.) It is also possible for two groups of Dolls from opposing
Necromancers can become friends. In this world of the autonomous undead, Dolls are the true wild card.

• Necromancer – The Necromancer cannot be easily fabricated, and as such there are a steadily dwindling amount of
Necromancers on the planet. Each Necromancer is a combination of Mold, pure energy and a special chip called a
Hex. The Hex is what focuses the dead-raising powers of the Mold, and as such powerful Necromancers can have
hundreds of Hexes in their bodies. Necromancers are fickle beings, as childish as they are serious, and are notoriously
unpredictable- as much as the Dolls they create.

Necromancer and Doll


A "Necromancer" is a generic term for a user of the corpse manipulation techniques known as necromancy. In general,
anybody, whether it be human, Doll, supercomputer or dissimilar that uses necromantic technology is therein called a
‘Necromancer’. Necromancy is advanced technology, but it is also available to anyone as long as knowledge the
procedure is present. However or fortunately, due to the collapsed present world not having a basic information
dissemination system, the number of Necromancers is small.

The Necromancer is a presence that can be called the king of this ruined world, but the term is not accurate if there is
more than one necromancer in a given area. For a fixed location that can be called their own territory, where they are
holed up intent on creating an eternal paradise to make his or her own; undead populate that territory.
However, eternity is terribly boring. With Necromantic technology, subjects can be made- and with these subjects, the
Necromancer can act out dramatic situations. Thus the subject can be called a "Doll". The personality of a Doll is
preprogrammed by the Necromancer. Many Necromancers enjoy having their Dolls be girls, and by extension grant
them the personality of a young girl. Although there is no technical reason to, it would not be entirely different than
the dolls that exist in reality.

A Doll can be considered completely human in their behavior. This is not the case with their counterpart, ‘Savants’.
Whereas a Doll may have a signifying trait, such as kindness or honesty, a Savant is either a corruption or coarse
enhancement of that trait. It should be mentioned that Savants are also deliberately made by Necromancers, as well as
another source- abandoned Dolls. An abandoned Doll can either fall into madness and become a Savant, or be actually
‘free’- if they are not picked up by the next Necromancer.

For the Necromancer, it is entirely possible to design the ego and intellect of the undead based on personal preference,
and is embedded with a set of memories, behaviors and habits that closely resemble a living human being, regardless
of their preference for the doll. This is the methodology for giving the personal identity of the human doll. However,
not all memories are suited to their new Doll vessels. A Doll can be made to suffer by remembering that it was once a
grown man- the loss of personal identity, old and new, breaks minds equally. The reason for storing these memories in
Dolls is both a depraved hobby of the Necromancers, and also their underlying function. Before and after the war,
people wanted to store their memories in computers; the only computer capable of simulating the human and personal
ego is the Slime Mold computer; the doll is a walking information node of a larger Slime Mold computer system.
Therefore, it is common that these memory tanks have scrambled, corrupted memories, and therefore have lost the
sense of self-identity. Self-identity, when built up by a Doll on their own, can come crashing down when a specific,
personal memory is vividly seen; the image that they built of themselves is lost to the tides of identity confusion and
the like. This is how Dolls can become Savants. More often than not, these Dolls wake up in the middle of a barren
wasteland with horrors trying to eliminate them- Removing memories of past comforts makes the Doll become
quickly accustomed to the environment.

What a Necromancer does with their dolls is up to their personal preference. However, much of their enjoyment
behind making Dolls is the gradual discovery of personal memories that bolster and destroy their ‘character’.

Dolls are as much of an enigma to the Necromancer as they are themselves. In the baseline, their motivating goal is to
collect their Memories. However, if that is their only motivating goal, why would they do anything else? They are
humans as much as they are robots made of flesh.

Most Dolls scatter across the wasteland, never to find the memory dearest to them. Some form townships and
colonies, and some nomadic tribes. But as this is Nechronica, a long sequel to a pathetic ending, it is up to the players
to complete their patchwork memories.

The Time Line


2049: In the South American Andes, a new species of slime mold is discovered.

2055: The completion of the Grand Unified Theory results in the first workable quantum computer. Performing millions of complex
calculations per millisecond, humanity's technological progress seems hopeful.

2063: A theoretical physicist announces the 'Ego Dimension Theory', a radical conclusion to the multiverse problem. Denounced
because it was so religiously centric, he is dismissed.

2065: The physicist that announced the EDT is murdered by an unknown group.

2076: Desertification, rising sea levels and air pollution gives rise to a new agency monitored by the UN.
2088: The slime mold discovered in 2049 finally is integrated into the quantum computer. The computer is able to learn at an astounding
rate. This prototype is constructed in various development labs around the world.

2091: Local weather manipulation is a success. Meteorologists conclude that weather will become predictable within the next decade or
so.

2099: Nuclear power is now the leading source of energy, after oil wells have started to dry up nearly forty years back. Coastline
facilities, however, are at risk of rising sea levels.

2100: The Middle Eastern Water Wars begin. As desalinization plants are monopolized by governments, a revolt begins due to the lack
of water.

2101: The murderers of the EDT physicist are revealed to be a large European organization. They have been working with the stolen
EDT and the Slime Mold Computer to create artificial consciousness, albeit unsuccessfully.

2103: The Water Wars intensify as weather machines become practical. Constant rain on Middle Eastern cities cause increased dryness
in other areas.

2109: Southeast Asian countries have increased reports of people going missing. Of course, this is chalked up to organized crime, and is
ultimately ignored.
The Water Wars have spread to South America, and the deserts are beginning to overtake jungles. Suspecting that neighboring
countries have stolen water via weather machine, tensions rise.

2118: The conflict in South America explodes, literally. A limited nuclear exchange leaves large swaths of land contaminated by
radiation. Refugees flee north. The fallout begins to spread.

2121: After three years of increased radiation levels, the World Environmental Organization finally deploys swarms of nanobots,
artificial bacteria and genetically altered insects made specifically to eat and process radioactive elements.

2123: In an isolated learning experiment with the learning Slime Mold Computer, the computer inexplicably and suddenly becomes
aware of the Ego Dimension Theory. It becomes obsessed with inventing theories that solve it. Scientists baffled.

2130: The undead appear. With slime mold replacing the neurons of the body, hordes of irradiated zombies emerge from the Andes and
terrorize the cleanup operation in South America.

2131: An Undead Panic. Doomsday cults claim they are right, and commit mass suicide. Riots, arsons and murders are rampant where
the media craze spreads.

2132: The 'MEL' doomsday cult posts an announcement on its webpage, claiming it has found a method to control the zombies. Minutes
later, the site goes down.

2135: Nuclear terrorism attack with ties to MEL simultaneously hits all major cities of the world. Maintaining diplomatic
communication, the world leaders avoid an all-out exchange.

2136: 'Endgame War' MEL leaders are found, brutally murdered by a third party. Drag marks indicate some of the bodies are gone.

2138: With a significantly increased infant mortality rate, the human race begins a downward trend.

2139: Freshwater springs are no longer a thing, the contamination reaching so far into the earth's crust. The only available water is from
water desalinization.

2140: A new Nuclear Weapons Treaty is signed. This time, it forbids the production and possession of nuclear weapons. Superpowers
must find a new method of enforcing their dominance.

2141: Stolen data from the MEL cult and research in a black operations lab in Europe results in the publication 'Corpse Manipulation
Techniques', essentially the earliest Necromancers. Scientific morals collapse completely.

2142: The first 'Undead Weapons' are deployed onto the battlefield, a de-evolution to the days of massed lines of infantry.
2144: The Corpse Manipulation Techniques are leaked onto the internet. Undead armies, government-affiliated and otherwise, crop up
all over the globe. The researchers affiliated with the original CMT create their own sovereignty in what is left of Australia, their leader a
Necromancer.

2145: Cloning is exploited. A healthy human body is cloned, then immediately killed to be fed to the growing armies of the undead. The
UN is in tatters, the nations beginning to turn on each-other.

2146: Thanks to the meticulous efforts of the Slime Mold Computer, the Ego Dimension Theory is finished. It is proven that it can be
paired with nanotechnology to make a form of personality transition, or brain uploading.
Large companies and governments launch the 'Personality Shelter Initiative', an effort to preserve the minds of the powerful.

2148: Efforts continue to transfer a personality into an undead host. The experiment was successful, but the prototype escaped the lab
whilst dealing great damage to lab equipment.

2151: There are more undead than there are humans on the planet. Dying national leaders succeed in personality uploading into a slime
mold computer. Personalities have the capacity to learn.

2153: The undead arms race is becoming unstable. Entire countries have their civilian populations converted into undead.

May 7, 2153: The Sodom Incident. The CMT Enclave attempt to abuse the personality uploading method, resulting in multiple copies
of the same person in the same area. Naturally, they murder everything and self-terminate.

2154: The nuclear treaty is broken. A fusion depth charge creates an artificial tsunami that swamps Eastern coastlines. The cold undead
war turns hot.

2155: Europe is in turmoil as mutant insect weapons turn the surface into a barren wasteland. Weather weapons set to 'blizzard',
originally meant to deal with the insect threat, literally snowballs and sends Europe into a new ice age.

2156: Finally, the world ends. The 'Launch All Missiles' button is pressed, and the world plunges into an extended nuclear winter. The
undead, unaffected by the cold, continue their wars.

2161: Necromancers assess the damage, and conclude that 98-100% of humanity has perished. The destruction of civilization is
complete. The only living things are those that have been designed to last the End, and those that are frozen.

2182: Nuclear winter turns into eternal spring. Necromancers, without a human to report to, wander aimlessly across the earth. The
temperature rises, and the barren cold wasteland turns into a slightly less barren, killer plant and insect infested wasteland.

21??: The Final War. Necromancers, clinging onto their last beliefs, begin a final war of the undead. This war takes its toll, and the few
surviving Necromancers are left to roam the desolate planet. The only thing left are the mutated, the dead, and the walking dead.
