In the year 2093, Earth has descended into a wasteland scorched by the Earth’s core. The greed of the world’s elite prevented us slowing down climate change - with large fossil fuel conglomerates choosing money over our planet’s future. This lead to a cataclysmic event known as ‘The Scorch’, with the Earth’s core becoming overheated and launching volcanic like explosions across the planet - destroying huge swathes of land, killing billions, and making large parts of the planet uninhabitable. The wealthy 1% now occupy the world’s only safe zone, continuing to live their glutinous lives like nothing ever happened, and preventing the 99% from the same privileges. 

There is some hope though, The Scorch unwittingly gave birth to a new breed of human - Pyrohumans. With their newly bestowed powers, the Pyropack as they are now known, are banding together to take down the elite and establish equality on our planet.
