Daedelus Project

  • The Promise of a Better Tomorrow
    In 1961 Charles Whitman wowed the world with the promise of free unlimited power for the entire Puget Sound region. The technology showed great promise to change the world for the better. One of several proposed, the site south of the center of the Emerald City was enormous, measuring almost 3 miles across. When the time came for opening ceremonies, the city united in celebration. Moments before the switch was thrown there was an earthquake, but the charismatic Whitman calmed the crowd and they pressed forward with the startup sequence. In the blink of an eye, the entire complex interior imploded in an instant stripping most of the technology from the circular ring. Then a few moments later wave of energy swept out across surface of the planet.
  • The Trinity Wave
    The disturbance was dubbed the "Trinity Wave" by the media outlets who were covering the large religious response to the event. Appearing to be a cohesive Aura Borealis, it was an event that could have been witnessed by nearly every human on the planet. Scientists have theorized that the effect of the wave was mutation and possibly fortification of human genetics, respectively allowing for the arrival of mutants and mutates. Mutants a result of evolution. Mutates being those that somehow survived a near death event by physiological adaptation. Still others have credited the wave with other metahuman classes, but the scientific community considers this to be unfounded extrapolation.
