Entry 00: Introduction to The Dystopian Diaries

Meet some of our heroes and read on for the synopsis of The Dystopian Diaries….

“I am the one who walks unseen in darkness. I am the Shadow Walker.”

“I am the doorway through which the dead relive their final moments. I am nothing more, nothing less. I, am Echo.”

“If suffering such agony is the onus befallen to me in return for the gift to heal, then so be it. So in essence I guess you can call me, Anima.”

“I have the ability to ossify living matter. Henceforth, those who wish to, may call me Ossificus.”

“I am a shapeshifter, connected to this world and everything that now resides within it. I, am Morph.”

“I tried a second simultaneous frequency, this one sang back to me in a higher voice and the rock began to splinter. Within a minute the entire thing exploded. Call me Hertz.”

“Inside the blackness of my mind symbols and numbers began to form, they glided behind my eyelids like red LEDs dancing off my corneas and they illuminated the shadows with such clarity that my inability to breath seemed immaterial. I can cross dimensions. I am The Mechanic.”

“We would feel and sense the love and pain, laughter and tears of others, but never our own. We would live and die together, observing from a distance. We would live and die alone. We are Unity.”

The Dystopian Diaries is the story of a world destroyed by man’s ignorance. A benevolent being claiming to be a God is discovered that claims it is capable of supplying us with an infinite organic power source. But, after an experiment results in it’s accidental death, the walls of reality crumble and thousands of rifts appear throughout the world. Through these dimensional tears appear demons from all manner of hell dimensions wanting to claim each area they occupy as their own: killing, maiming, eating or torturing their way through the inhabitants for little other than their own amusement.

Amidst the chaos is Nathaniel Spekes, a scientist on the original project who manages to escape the lab with a laptop built by the creature and merged with cells taken from it during the experiment, which allows him to use it even in a world without power.

Nathaniel records his experiences on his journey as he attempts to escape death and notes down information he finds along the way. Eventually he meets up with those who will come to be his companions and he takes accounts of their experiences on paper, not revealing to them the secret of the laptop and his ‘diary blog’.

The time does come when he is found out and the group erupts into anarchy which results in an event that changes their lives and their very existences forever. With powers they could never have imagined, they each go on their way, trying to help restore the world, fighting back the creatures as well as their own personal demons.

However, the creatures fight back. The group’s powers may be strong against them having been created by the one who had claimed to be a God, but – since all things must have balance – they too can create equally effective human weapons to rival our heroes.

When power gets restored worldwide the group begin to upload their own diaries and so do people all around the world. Some ask for help, some plea for the end to take them, but others… others are getting ready to fight our heroes and destroy their plans to save the world.
