End of the World as we Know It

The dark future of 2020 brought us the collapse of American civilization and the rise of The Incorporated States of America. Corporations rule, edgrunners run, and the masses grind out a living in the cities left behind or band in nomad packs out in the Wastelands.

Now, in 2027, a new threat emerges: The Carbon Plague. 10% of adults that contract it die; over 18 million deaths in the ISA alone. Officially, minors are immune. Unofficially, some of the kids who contact the plague are physically altered by the nanites granting them super-human powers. Behind the scenes corporations are scrambling to get their hands on these children: either to experiment on them, brainwash them into becoming future super powered corps, or eliminate them as the walking plague carriers they are.
