Welcome to Eden. It's in the G E N E S.


Welcome to Eden is a text-based RPG forum. Set in a dystopian future with elements of the mutant role-playing genre, with a community of active (and quirky) members, the forum offers an entire city to explore, immersing the player in a gritty, science-fantasy atmosphere.

2012. The world's natural resources are dwindling, conflicts between countries are eminent and people are unsettled. War is inevitable. In the space of just eight years the violent clash of global super-powers will bring humankind to its knees, leaving the terrain desolate and bereft of nourishment, and sucking all hope from the heart of civilisation.

2020. The development of the Genesis Virus, the latest in biological warfare, devastates the populace, wiping out billions of innocents and leaving misery and disease in its wake. Leaving few survivors, the virus saw the end of the war, but not without consequence. The M-Gene, found in only a fraction of the surviving community just a few years later, reveals a genetic abnormality in this minority causing previously unknown gifts, or curses, to manifest. The term "mutant" quickly escalates into a taboo term throughout the remnants of society, and many of them are killed out of fear.

2025. A group of survivors lead by a man named Malcolm Liebert establish a settlement known as Eden and begin rebuilding on the ruins of an unknown city, attracting other survivors in the process. As years come and go, it grows into a bustling city-state under the careful guidance of Liebert, who would eventually found the Sons of Adam. Eden's only political party, they are a totalitarian regime. They are hungry for power and terrified of losing it. They come down harshly on anything that might prove a challenge to their power, anything different or dangerous.

2097. Eden's population is just over 1 million and is under the rule of Malcolm Liebert's grandson. Enter the City.
