The year was 2060 when human beings had finally peaked their prowess. Technology was better by the month, most if not all diseases and viruses had been eradicated including the infamous cancer in all of its forms. Truly this was the peak of human power, as all the advancements were finally leading to a, admittedly fragile, state of peace almost world wide.
Sadly, this time of peace and prosperity was not very long lasting as not two years later did a new challenge present itself to the human race. A retrovirus suddenly starting popping up all over the world seemingly over night and every kind of treatment bounced off of it. Victims of the virus would experience symptoms of nearly every other kind of disease that was previous abolished over the years and more disturbing than that... they would change. Skin color, hair color, eye color... their very physical make up was being altered!
Fangs, claws, teeth, hair, body structure... nothing was safe and it was near impossible to tell how it would change each person. In just a years time this virus has the human race scrambling in a world wide effort to try and put it down... and they were loosing faster and faster. Five years after initial discovery was a state of world wide panic declared as this horrid infection had an estimated eighty percent fatality rate and people around the world were dropping like flies. In a total of a mere seven years was the human race ravaged, society fell and it seemed like the earth held still.
The year is now 2140, 80 years since the peak of human power and things finally seem stable again. The earth has taken this time to heal after the excessive burden of human life and now the giant sprawling cities of the humans lie mostly in ruin and are over grown with fresh wild plant life and animals. The surviving humans now scramble to try and make a living for themselves while a bold few try to revive what once was.
It is during this time that we find an unlikely survivor of the Retrovirus, Kaizen, a regular human male, standing at about 5'7" tall. He's got green eyes and messy brown hair, coupled with tanned skin and thin lips. He has a large, ragged beard, since he was never able to cut it. His body is lean and muscled thanks to years of living out in the wild growth of the earth. It is there that he finds himself now, ever on the hunt for food to keep not only himself healthy, but his younger brother Maxwell as well!
