[QUOTE="sparxmith, post: 1686731, member: 14838"] [b]The Vorlons vs. the Shadows[/b] If you're a B5 fan, then I have a great idea for you. (And if you're not a B5 fan, shame on you! But B5 is short of Babylon 5. It was a 5 year television series that detailed a war between 2 super technological races, and how that war affected humans and the other similar races. Fantastic stuff--you should consider becoming a fan.) Anyways, the idea is this. The virus mutates some people so much that they become pure psionic creatures, i.e. made up solely of energy. However, different strains create two different races. One race is in favor of establishing a new world order based upon their new abilities and the concepts of Order. The second group believes that mankind has been given a chance to be free from opression finally and opposes any types of stucture. The two groups go to war. During their warfare, anyone not of these two groups becomes in on way or another, a victim of the war. One of the "Shadow's" first acts is to release nano-technology that disassembles any type of semi-conductor and any metal that is made up of more than X% carbon (where X is equal to the point at which industrial grade alloys are created.) This prevented any "mortals" from aiding either side. Only those of serious power are able to fight. Now, reduced to a different battle, the two groups go for each others throats. Centuries pass while the war rages on. Eventually, the two races leave the planet. Their deeds remain in myths of Gods Vs. Titans, Angels Vs. Demons, etc. But nobody was able to preserve the history or technology of the pre-war civilization. That leaves you where you want to start your campaign. Enjoy! --Sparxmith [/QUOTE]
