I'm leaving large portions of the history intentionally blank.
Some of you may be frustrated by this.
I'm actually doing it so that you can contribute to the creation of this world and it's history. If you are the first person to play a human from a city then feel free to name that city and tell us it's story! And don't worry, if anything clashes with the already established story then I will let you know so you can edit the story. Or, if I prefer your version, I will edit the history to accommodate!
I may award extra benefits for those who help contribute in building the world. Granted the world is ending but don't let that discourage you from writing about it's past. In fact, that just means there's more past to write about!
Oh, and don't worry about timelines and dates. I left those blurry on purpose just in case someone wanted to squeeze in a slice of history between two set occurrences.
So have fun and let your creative juices flow!
