The year is 2081. Most expected the future to be filled with incredible inventions and discoveries. The cure for cancer, Flying cars, world peace...No-one expected humanity to crumble. Its been ten years since the infestation hit. The world is left in utter devastation and few survived. But what exactly happened? Most believed they would be taken out by some freak disease or apocalyptic weather or even a zombie outbreak. But all it had taken was one bad day a decade ago. First, the world was plagued by hysteria. “There's a meteor coming!” The newspapers would scream, the reporter's would shout, the civilians would shriek.“There's a meteor coming and it's heading straight to London!” Everyone waited for their end to come as the burning mass was seen hurtling towards earth, glowing bright with a tinge of blue...The city expected death and...in the long run, the city wasn't wrong. What no one expected, however,was the meteorite to emerge as some kind of egg. It hit, smack bang in the middle of Leicester square and, miraculously, left no one dead nor injured. It did leave the fountain in a poor state, but very few cared about that, not when this phenomenon had fallen from the skies...Pictures were taken, reports were made and it was soon the talk of the world. An alien egg or...something just as extraordinary had landed right there in London, a beautifully bizarre thing that almost resembled a smooth grey boulder, decorated with fluorescent rocks of green and blue. Like eggs do, it hatched...but it didn't hatch friendly little green men like everyone expected. No. It quite literally hatched the beginning of the apocalypse as the first Morditus pushed through the shell and gunk to face the world with an inhuman screech. It was a yellowish grey monstrosity, it's darkly veined skin stretched thinly over an almost skeletal figure...Its appendages were far longer than any human and their hands ended in razor sharp, pointed fingers. Not nails. Bone. And the most disturbing thing? The face….their skulls were almost human in shape, hairless like the rest of its body...But a stretch of skin covered what should have been its eyes. They are, of course, blind but with incredible hearing and the ability to smell human blood from several hundred meters away, Their lack of vision was not an inconvenience to them. Their mouths were full of drool dripping, black caked deadly teeth. Rows and rows of them, far more than their mouths could handle...They moved almost like chimps. Nimble and quick. For something so sickly looking, They were ridiculously resilient; surviving bullet wound after bullet wound. The head was the key. If you wanted these bastards dead, you had to destroy the brain.
Everyone thought of zombies if you mentioned the word apocalypse and, honestly, this wasn't hugely different.
The Mortidus were and still are ridiculously hard to kill and worst of all, they're infectious. If a person is lucky enough to avoid being eaten by these monsters and survive an attack, They better pray they haven't been bitten...Even the smallest puncture of the skin made by their hideous teeth or the smallest fleck of alien drool in an open wound will trigger a chemical change that will warp a humans DNA, Triggering a gruesome and painful transformation from human to Mortidus.
But what of the survivors...?
An group has formed in an attempt to take back humanity. But is that enough?
