A scientific discovery is never inherently good or evil. It is always the choice of people how to use it.
In the year 2050, a discovery has been made. We have named it Genesis. A new process allowing easy creation of new life, and modification of exiting life. By the year 2056 it began to have commercial application. It brought a new wave of medical technology, and food production. Arid lands were able to become fertile. It was the most important discovery ever achieved.
The US military adopted the Genesis in 2057 for weapon usage. There were two separate chains their research broke into:
Progress: This chains purpose was to modify humans to become better combatants. Increased strength, new limbs, abilities beyond anything human.
Spread: This chains goal is to create new plants that could be used as traps or ingredients. Flowers that gave off powerful poisons, or ensnare their enemies.
These were able to put the US military far ahead of any other on Earth. It wasn't long before other countries began developing their own weapons through genesis though. To avoid being surpasses in 2060 they opened a new chain of research.
Spawn: The goal of this new chain was to develop entirely new animals to join fight for them. The program was a great success.
The US military soon after stopped training its own soldiers and replaced them with creatures from Spawn. By the year 2065 the military had less than 500 soldier remaining in service.
Other countries were rushed in their process of catching up to the US. The rush made them sloppy, with frequent lab accidents making headlines. In 2071 there was reported to be a major accident in North Korea. A plant animal mix had escaped their labs. This report was ignored by the majority of the public, and government. The creation has now been named surge by us.
The surge began to spread quickly afterwards. The US ignored the problem knowing they would have an easy victory against them. Our military lost their easy victory in 2076 when the surge developed parasite to control creations of spawn. The newly thrown together militairy was ill trained, and no match for the surge.
This is 2081. We now know the purpose of the surge was vast replication and diversification with a need to kill built into their DNA. The surge now comes in millions of forms, they can live in sea, air, or on ground. They live as diseases, animals, plants, and parasite. They kill their weak to insure only the strong will survive.
Human civilization has nearly been crushed. If it wasn't due to the recent advances in the research of "Progress" and "Spread" the last of our civilization would have been wiped out. The US now consists of three cities each surround by a wall and protected by a military force. The three cities have diplomatic issues between them, but are forced to work together to insure survival.
Haven: Source of most food and farming. This city is the largest of the three, and in the worst shape. The least influential of the cities due to the others being able to provide some food for their people already.
Magnate: Source of energy and oil. Smallest of the three cities, and in the best shape. Is the most influential of the three due to the abundance of oil. Without this city the others would be left without energy.
Service (This is where you'll be starting.): The military city. Between the other two cities in size and condition. The location of all research. Near the same amount of influence of Magnate due to the protection they provide being essential. They have been known and criticized for doing modifications to children. They require anyone between the age of 18 to 40 in their city capable of joining the military to do so. Anyone not capable of doing so would be forced to leave the city.
