A dark threat
Centuries of war against a supernatural foe have led to desperate times for humanity. But with the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, advanced technologies have emerged that will give The Order an advantage, and help them take the fight back to enemies both old and new. Amid this alternative history; The Order remains a pivotal part of the British Empire, with its council hidden deep within the halls of government.
City of death
Journey through Victorian-era London, complete with familiar landmarks such as the Palace of Westminster, Mayfair, Whitechapel, Crystal Palace, Big Ben and the London Underground. But this is not the London you know. Giant airships patrol the skies and electric trains traverse the city on elevated tracks above busy streets. This vision of London features advanced technology, brought about by an accelerated Industrial Revolution and the centuries-old conflict between humans and Half-breeds.
A new threat arises
A rebellion emerges that threatens an already unstable peace. Tight security measures that amount to a near police state, combined with a widening gap between the rich and the poor, have left the citizens of London angry at those they perceive to be the cause of their woes. The ranks of the rebels are growing - as is their boldness - as they declare an all-out war against The Order and the government oppression it represents.
Centuries ago, a dangerous foe emerged known as the Half-breeds. With inhuman strength and speed, humanity was seemingly outmatched by this new supernatural threat. To combat the Half-breeds, an elite order of Knights formed to protect humanity from this deadly menace. Strengthened by a mysterious liquid called Blackwater, the Knights of The Order can heal their wounds and extend their lifespans in order to engage this unnatural enemy.
