Introduction
The old heroes have all gone now. Passed on into legend long ago, with none of their calibre to be seen again. No one knows how, or when, or why the ki began to fade. Most don't even realize the world has changed, they just go about living their lives the way they always have.
The metropolis has spread across the Earth. There are no longer cities, just sectors of the great urban sprawl. The natural places have largely been paved away decades ago, with only a few nature preserves kept for the few wealthy who can afford to maintain them. When they ran out of space, they started building up, layers upon layers, until the highest points literally scrape the sky.
The trees have all gone. The lakes and rivers and streams. There are no farms because there is no land left. All the food is engineered, buildings are crafted from synthetic polymers. Even life itself is no longer immune to the reach of the chemist, as the factories are more and more of them are manned by the custom-manufactured Universal Humanoids of the Shinigami Corporation.
Shinigami
The Shinigami Corporation is the most powerful organization on the Earth. It has essentially become the government, the economy, and the military. One rule, under the mighty power of the corporation. One nation, under the CEO. And it was the Universal Humanoids that made them their wealth.
The Universal Humanoids, or unimen, are custom lifeforms, down to the molecular level. A Uniman can be engineered to live off of almost any substance, to work without tiring, or sleeping. Even his level of intelligence can be designed, anywhere from simple animal to better than human, though most are kept more towards the former.
