Earth-1330

Earth-1330 is one of the primary earths from which characters draw their collective histories.

Background

Earth-1330 shares much of its history with Earth-Prime. One of the most distinguishing characteristics of Earth-1330 is the potential for genetic mutation, which can result in superhuman abilities. Technologically speaking, Earth-1330 is one of the most advanced earths in the collective multiverse. Due to the acquisition of Coristanti bio-organic technologies, Devlinari Industries has been able to reverse engineer much of the photonic, or light-based, properties that power much of the advances.

During the late 20th century, Earth-1330 saw much political upheaval due to the fight for metahuman rights. Costumed vigilantes composed of metahumans often fought for and against baseline (non-meta) humans in skirmishes that helped define the era. Genus was formed in response to this threat.

Governance Structure

Sovereign states, such as the United States, Canada, Germany, Frances, and so forth govern their own citizens independently. The United Nations exists in an effort to promote international cooperation and resource-sharing, but does not enforce laws of its own accord. All sovereign states aligned must, however, abide by its charter and principles.

Organizations of Note

• Devlinari Industries - Formerly an independent biopharmaceutical company, Devlinari expanded into an international corporation focused on advancing the areas of health care, information technology, genetic engineering, weapons manufacturing, and security operations. Devlinari also developed the current standard of communication through a five-satellite configuration known as Lightnet. Devlinari also maintains a paramilitary strike force known as Progeny.
• Genus - Recognized as the right hand of the United Nations' Security Council, Genus serves to police metahumans across the world as well as lends assistance to peace keeping operations where metahuman abilities can be harnessed and utilized in accordance with the promotion of United Nations' goals and objectives.
• The Pack - A terrorist organization founded by Cairo Westlake and his sister Isis Westlake in an attempt to destroy Devlinari Industries. Initially, Cairo did not approve of mass violence as a means to combat Devlinari but this soon changed with the attacks on Devlinari Tower and the Devlinari Space Station.

State of the Union

The Pack has shaped much of the recent history of Earth-1330. Several targeted attacks against Devlinari left Lightnet damaged, but not destroyed, and saw the destruction of Devlinari Tower and the near-destruction of the Devlinari Space Station (DSS). The former CEO of Devlinari Industries, Camden Westlake, is comatose and in a vegetative state. Her father, Chaston Westlake, has not been seen since the attack on Devlinari Tower. Reagan Westlake, a clone of Rowan Westlake now serves as CEO while Kallie Sanford serves as its Senior Director of Operations. Dante Masters serves as Devlinari's Chief of Intelligence and is primarily focused on finding the remaining Pack members not currently in Genus' custody.

Genus uses Ellis Holland, also known as Pattern of the Pack, and his weather manipulation abilities to quell environmental disasters across the globe. Because of this, drought conditions, globally, have been eliminated and severe weather conditions are routinely eliminated.

The Pack continues to search for Cairo Westlake and Damian Niles, both of whom have also gone underground since the failed attempt to destroy Devlinari. Avery Arsenault, also known as Override, has a dimensional transport device that was acquired from Global Security Initiative operatives. Gavin Prescott has also rejoined the Pack since his abduction by GSI operatives.
