A catastrophic event known as "The Blackening" has occurred on earth. This uncanny force of nature has cast civilization into a post-apocalyptic state. Mankind is slowly rebuilding itself and begins to resemble the nineteenth century American Old West. In this world there are no heroes or saviors but instead people trying to survive by any means necessary. There is also a supernatural element that has taken root within society. One that is sinister in nature and causing humanity to return to it's dark and violent past.
