[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 2311983, member: 2012"] [b]My d20 Modern Campaign Idea![/b] This is what i'm planning... [CENTER][COLOR=DarkOrange][B][SIZE=3]GUARDIAN EARTH[/SIZE][/B][/COLOR] [I]By Robert Blezard[/I][/CENTER] [COLOR=DarkOrange][B]THE BASICS[/B][/COLOR] Many Guardian Earth heroes (but not all) are part of an elite military unit known as First Defense created by the World Union Alliance, which replaced the United Nations in 2154. First Defense is responsible for the defense of the WUA and its holding throughout the solar system. First Defense is the military division of Department 7, a black ops agency that was created by the WUA in 2175 after the worlds’ leaders discovered the existence of Watchdog Station built by the First Guardian who had died defending the Earth from an alien interloper. This First Guardian, who had called himself Darkstar, recorded a message detailing the existence of the evil force known throughout the universe for its destructive influence and incorporeal nature. The Darkness, as Darkstar called it, literally enslaved entire races, bending them to its will. The alien interloper had been a member of one of these servant races. Darkstar told them of the great gift (and curse) that had been passed to him through the will of a conclave of dying aliens who had been the previous race to wear the mantle of Guardians of Creation, who he called the Predecessors. The Predecessors had not only passed to him the Energy but also the technical knowledge of the all the previous Guardian races. He built Watchdog Station to store as much of this information as he could and created a powerful AI to run the station after his death, which had known would happen. The AI, called “Watchdog”, contained part of the First Guardian’s mind and experiences. It stood to defend the Earth from the Darkness and was able to build sophisticated prototypes of highly advanced technology beyond even what man had accomplished by 2175. The First Guardians message suggested the formation of First Defense and that such a force would be needed within 100 to 200 years, minimum. The creation of First Defense only came about after a heated debate as to whether or not the First Guardian had spoken the truth or if it was a trick by some unknown alien force. (Darkstar had been popular with the world leaders of the early 21st Century.) It took nearly 50 years to bring the countries of the world together to form First Defense and another 50 years to decipher the key knowledge required to create the process of genetic manipulation to create the elite super soldiers. Department 7 was given control of Watchdog station and the organization has uncovered that agents of the Darkness have already found their way to Earth and sow the seeds of dissent into the WUA and civilian organizations around the world and throughout the solar system. The colonies on Mars are particularly hard pressed, as are the mining facilities orbiting Jupiter and Saturn. Clandestine raiders attack convoys and patrols out of the asteroid Field, although not all of them are under the sway of the Darkness. Spies, saboteurs, assassins, and super powered minions are causing problems from one end of the solar system to the other. The year is 2280. [/QUOTE]
