Chthonian Stars Core Setting
2159 AD. It is a good time to be alive. The nations of the world still exist¸ but they have become more civilized¸ and we have expanded into the rest of our solar system. But¸ alas¸ it is not to be our time. Something approaches¸ a thing on an orbit from far away. Seemingly a large shard of dark matter¸ this object is known in obscure prophecy as the Chthonian Star. It is awakening things long thought lost or dead¸ things that have slumbered awaiting its return. The Unified World Council sends out special teams of sanctioned Wardens¸ whose job it is to ascertain the new threats to human life¸ to learn everything they can about them¸ and fight them wherever they are found.
