Storyline

The world called Lucidity was a normal world, albeit with odd beginnings. The planet was a standard Earth-type one, colonized on February 2, 3028 in Earth's date system. Eighty years prior, the parents of the original settlers left an embattled Earth, which was currently entrenched in the death throes of a man-made Armageddon. The nuclear fallout from that event left no survivors shortly after this group departed.

2745 Lucidian years later, the descendants of the original colony had expanded to populate the entire planet. The humans went on with their lives as expected, living with their families, enjoying their time, working to gain money, learning at schools, and other things involved with going about their daily business. Technological advances made things easier for everyone.

Some humans, however, had access to a special kind of power, as a result of mutation brought on by the events their ancestors experienced. Despite the absense of these powers in most of the people of the world, these people were very much respected for their abilities. Using the energy of the visible light spectrum, these unique people could attune themselves to a specific color, matched with a specific element, and cast incredible spells. The 'magic' also subtlely enhanced their physical abilities as well. The spells and powers resulting from this light-oriented form of magic was eventually referred to Wavestorms.

Many of the men and women that could access this power chose to use it for the benefit of all humankind. Crime becomes a simple matter to prevent or stop with such powers at one's disposal. As more and more of them gained access to their powers, they were given the title of Defenders, working as liasons with the defense and police forces of their planet.

Several, however, chose not to follow the path of good. It's unknown whether they're simply bad at heart or whether they're being an influenced by an outside source. Many people are concerned, including government officials, and everyone agrees that something needs to be done.

In addition to bad Wavestorm users roaming about, many of the more benign creatures and animals that inhabited the world began acting more fierce, even to the extent of attacking people that roam their territory.

Taking advantage of the rapidly declining situation, many malcontents with excellent contacts began formenting seeds of dissent in the populace, and other people with much less admirable plans began committing larger crimes. It's unknown how many of these criminals take part in some of the more astounding crimes, who all is involved, and whether or not they're being led by some devious mastermind.

There were rumors that the cause of all this had to do with Eclipse, an alternate dimension connected to Lucidity. That plane of existance had been ventured into by a brave few, but not for long enough periods of time to really gain enough reliable information. But what little that is known about the realm suggests that there are powerful creatures there, and that the powers of Wavestorm Defenders are connected to the dimension, despite their old Earth origins. Something bad happening there could easily spill over into the main dimension.

Regardless of the cause, events on Lucidity were slowly heating up, with more creatures attacking innocents, more Wavestorm Defenders turning evil, more people crying out for restrictions placed on the Defenders, and more criminals taking oppurtunities opened by the current atmosphere. The remaining Wavestorm Defenders train against and work with each other in a desperate bid to improve their skills and solve these mysteries before time runs out.
