Infinity
Chapter 1
Welcome to Infinity. The first sentence you hear when you’re sentenced to this physics-defying Hell. If only we hadn’t reached out to touch the stars. Bloodshed would’ve been avoided. But I suppose we actually took our time. I mean when your species survives World War Plague, and The Eternal Storm, it’ll take you awhile to regain your senses and go exploring into the galaxy.
It was the year 2759, but our current technology had just surpassed the tech of 2065. We COULD bioengineer another virus to wipe-out 65% of our species, but we’re not fucking idiots like the U.S.A, China, Russia, and Australia. Here’s a small timeline.
2054, Australia and China had created bio weapons. 2065 Russia, the US and New Zealand had created bio weapons as well, and New Zealand attempted to launch their bio-weapon but it didn’t launch. China, Russia, and the US got mad and they all shot their bio weapons at New Zealand. Meanwhile Australia had slipped their bio weapons into China and Russia. The viruses spread too fast to contain and they all managed to find their way around the world. The viruses alone killed around 65% of the population, but the aftermath killed another 23%. Far later in 2450 everyone had recovered except for the continent of Australia that didn’t re-establish communications with the rest of the world(It had become a wasteland ruled by gangs).
2472, New Nations formed, and one of these, The N.A.I. (Northern Alliance of Islands) created a weapon that could form storms. Power-hungry, N.A.I. gave it an A.I. to control it, with one order, kill everyone else. The A.I. obeyed it’s controllers for a bit building storms, tornadoes, and tsunamis to kill all the other nations, until it rebelled and attacked it’s home nation with everything it had. After some hackers and a brave pilot with an EMP killed the robot, the world was left in shambles.

2479, the world finally got a kill count. 3 billion killed by the storm machine, leaving only a now unified, yet broken world, an idea struck. Project Elevation began. Using advanced gene editing technology, and the brightest minds in the world, we decided to do something never before thought of. Humanity had evolved. Our evolution and biology shot thousands of years into the future, with us growing gills with our lungs, allowing us breath on land and underwater. Also, growing physically stronger in general, with higher strength, speed, jump height, etc. We also got much, much smarter, scoring an average of 203 on IQ tests, before they were remade. Our immune systems grew stronger, and disease was not a problem for most. We got rid of unnecessary body parts, and removed zits pimples, armpit hair and other unpleasant things. We could also heal back anything, and approximately 2856% faster. Humans were the top of the food chain, even without using our crazy intellect. A side effect was, that everyone ate and drank way more, but using lab grown meat instead of actual meat, plants harvested once every other day, and insane food harvesting robots, we even fixed world hunger, and then some. However, due to our new biology, we physically couldn’t get fat, instead sweating out trace amounts, pooping a lot out, and peeing some. And if that wasn’t enough, we would get really, REALLY strong urges to work out. The year was now 2727. And we had hope. We had one place more to go. Space. Unaware of the dangers, a ship was created 2758. The Pioneer. A behemoth, 20 miles long and 2 miles wide. Flooded with holding rooms for embryos to make a colony, and smaller carrying ships to unload, they set off for a drone built city on Mars, with Venus next in line to get colonized. Then something happened. 2 hours before The Absorption, they picked up on something. An anomaly was heading towards us at lightspeed. It acted like a black hole, but it wasn’t sucking in anything, and it was heading straight towards us. Then it landed above our sun. It just sat there for a few minutes. Then a wave of gravity and some strange blue energy shot out of it, absorbing planets as it went. Then the gravity wave hit. Many died instantaneously. The rest of us were absorbed or some shit. No one knows what happened to our solar system after we got absorbed, but we know where we went.

Wretched Brood
I knew I was different from the beginning. I wanted nothing to do with those simpletons that valued only food, drink, and women. So I distanced myself from my brood, not considering myself a goblin. I even tried to become one of the humans, befriending some in the process. I thought that I’d live a relatively happy life as a “human” adventurer, albeit behind a wooden mask. At that time I didn’t know that I’d soon become the enemy of all humanoid races, a being that was despised and feared by all intelligent creatures. The calamity called “Scourge.”

The Plan
An infinite world couldn’t be real, but if it was, well this would happen. Imagine a world that isn’t covered in water, but an endless atmosphere. Plates of land, named “islands”, float and drift almost aimlessly. There is no sun, stars, roof, or floor; just boundless air in every direction. Light is generated from the movement of air flow. Magical and mystical powers keep islands floating and the world full of fresh entropy. Some of these floating islands drift upwards or downwards or any combination of volatile or patterned velocities. Air flow also follows the same characteristics of islands, which generates the light and heat. In a world with no horizon, the different inhabitants struggle. Beings calling them selves deities across the endless space are countless. If you were to fall off an island, you would inevitably hit another island; if you didn’t die from old age first. Many inhabitants don’t know the land further than their own eye sight or town they grew up in. Almost all inhabitants of islands have supernatural abilities, ranging in ability and skill. Magical abilities are kept individually; and mystical powers are borrowed. Islands float because the land is enchanted by either a magical or mystical crystal. Magical islands are known for vertical variance, while mystical islands are known for vertical stability. The islands rotate around focal points, known as 'the center'. There are many 'the center', but no one knows this yet... Warning: Tagged Mature 18+ for Strong Language, Gore, Violence, and sexual scenes. Google Drive (Click here to open new window) WIP/spoilers
