The Plot
The year 2028. Things in the world are more or less peaceful. Small conflicts happen here and there, but not much more. The most significant change to have happened is the rise of megacities. With population and globalisation rising, it was a matter of time before large multicultural cities across the world such as Hong Kong, New York, Mumbai, London, etc turned into city states in their own right. However, the story begins in a shady bar near Baghdad. In the backroom of a converted bomb shelter by the name Incognito, you meet with a certain man, known only to be enigmatic and impossibly wealthy. He has many names, but the one most people know him as is Asheriy Mathore, the owner of multinational corporations like HSO Industrial, Kenai Robotech, and AM Media Networks among others. The magic community, on the other hand, knows him as the powerful summoner, Redshift, and he has found a few runners worthy of running tasks for him.
Through some means, be it passed notes, or quick whispers, you reached Incognito and asked for Redshift. From there, you were taken to the backroom after being frisked thoroughly by a few strongmen and seated around in comfortable room, albeit a little hazy with smoke. With the dull thumping of electronic music playing in the club not making the presence of Redshift hidden enough. As you think you've been stood up on another job by another flaky customer, he appears. Bursting through the door in a flowing white tunic and a deep red jacket-vest, followed by two bodyguards close behind, he walks in with his arms outstretched, as if greeting everyone. Little do you know how significantly this man will change your life in the time to come.
