[QUOTE="maedsl, post: 6876743, member: 6839596"] Here's a little timeline for a Post Apocalyptic D&D set on Earth ala Shannara: The World as we knew it has ended. [U]Year[/U] [U]Event[/U] 2050 Messages sent from Earth into Space, nearly a century before, were finally answered 2055 A small Triangular shaped craft landed in England in the small city of Preston in the county of Lancashire. The Gith had arrived and they were benevolent. 2065 After a decade of peace, knowledge and understanding – Disease, Poverty and War were no more – Under the Gith Mankind was finally healed. 2067 The Gith settled on Earth building Temples of universal learning and culture and bringing a new power source which the Gith taught some of the Human race to manipulate. This was known in the Gith dialect as The Weave but ,to the amusement of the Gith, the Human Scientists simply labelled it “ T78B1O “ 2069 Humans realise Gith have visited Earth 1000’s of years before. Visiting different continents the Gith explained they found Mankind too warlike and primitive so left. Unknowingly leaving a lasting impression as their Pyramid shaped ships rose into the Heavens. 2070 Mankind's reliance on Fossil Fuels and Nuclear power was finally over. The vast Weave Pyramid in Antarctica was completed and the Earth bathed in its warm glow for the next 300 years. 2128 Completion of the first Interdimensional Craft “ The Veronica June “ is completed. Setting out with a Human / Gith crew to explore the Multiverse it would never be heard from again. 2373 War raged on the edge of our Galaxy. The Gith left Earth to defend Humankind but were ultimately defeated and enslaved by interdimensional beings known as The Illithid. The Weave pyramid exploded causing devastation – the Earth shifted and the World burned.......... All the while the invisible Weave fallout drifted gently to Earth. Historians would later argue the destruction of the Great Pyramid was the final “ benevolent “ act of the Gith sparing Man from the horrors of the Illithid - others would claim that the Gith and the Illithid were in league………….in any case our Saviour had become our Executioner. ???? The Earth became calm and slowly the survivors grouped together for safety and Protection. ???? Society began to grow, trade and farming began again and Leaders rose from the Ashes. ???? Rumours grew in the Villages and Towns of strange terrifying mutated creatures in the Wild and humans able to move and create objects with their minds and a few words. 3662 The World as we knew it has ended…………… [/QUOTE]
