The Story
Earth has become over populated and instead of sending off their innocent civilans to an uncertain fate, they sent their criminals. Making a planet their own personal prison, they had terra formed the world in hopes that it would let the prisoners live regular lives. In the beginning everything was going splendidly and the colony of Shakream grew as more prisoners were tossed upon the planet's surface. However, everything has their price and the price of taking up a colony on this world was perhaps one that was too steep. A poisonous gas filled the air killing many of the guards and prisoners. Because of this, the criminals took the chance and took over the colony as they demanded supplies to build a wall and a barrier around their city. Earth gave into the demands so that the living guards could go home to their parents. With the prisoners still upon the planet though, they continued to send more, but now in life pods rather than going down with their ships.
Within the forty years they have been there though, things have begun to grow strange as odd things happened. No one could truly explain it or solve it, so two groups rose up from the ashes to find the mystery that is at hand. The Seekers believe that the answers are somewhere upon the planet's surface and will do anything to find the answers they want. They are a rough group having tracked across the surface many times and forced to adapt to the harsh weather of the desert like planet. On the other hand, there is the Wisdomites who believe that through knowledge of the writings of the alien race that was once upon this world, they will find the answers they seek. Sadly, neither group has been very successful as of now, but there seems to be something growing just beneath the surface. What is it? Join and you might find out.
