The Lords of the Dead

A Primer Story In the Breakdown Universe

Witness the birth of a new world, the bloody foundation of mankind’s greatest struggle.

Enter a universe where confronting the past is the only way to survive.

A comet from the heavens, a global pandemic, and a horrifying decision to save humanity.

Together, these events form the basis of “The Breakdown”—a complete erasure of the infrastructure, ethics, and morals that once dominated modern civilization. In its wake is a world gone mad, where the newfound “Global Coalition” must face overwhelming odds. They are beset by the armies of human tyrants, hosts of mutant abominations, and the corrupting influence of malignant gods.

And the only choice is war.

Major Thomas Beckett of the Coalition Army’s Special Forces was there at the beginning. He witnessed the end of the Old World, The Breakdown, and the bitter years that followed. Now, as time passes, he and his allies wonder how the Coalition's promise of a restored Earth can endure.

How could it when their world still burns?

Even as the strength of modern military forces clash with sorcerers, mutants, and potent rivals, a deeper threat festers in the darkness. A powerful entity hungers for the souls of mankind.

Its name is Nidara, and it calls itself a god.

From her teachings, the Lords of the Dead will rise.
