The mysterious grays have studied humanity for thousands of years . Earth's remote location in the backwaters of the galaxy made it an ideal location for the alien race to conduct research that is too dangerous to preform on any of their home worlds. Embroiled in an intersteller war with an unknown enemy, the grays were desperate to develop a super-weapon that would ensure their survival. The natural resources and large population of earth, combined with the human leadership's corrupt accommdations provide the perfect facility for the grays biological warfare development.
In 1947, a gray research ship experienced a major malfunction resulting in a crash near roswell, new mexico. The united states government quickly covered up the truth, sealed off the site and recovered a badly wounded gray named "edgar" who was transported to area 51 for study. In the time that folllowed, major elements of the government were co-opted by the powerful Illuminati a secret organization of elitists dedicated to ruling the world from the shadows. The Illuminati used their influence to set a new secret agenda for Area 51. A major base was built over the initial laboratory that housed the crippled "edgar" abd the grays established a research facility 3 miles below the desert surface. Since then it served as the only secure landing site for all subsequent gray vessels.
In time, the illuminati formed a pact with the grays, granting them needed resources (including humans for experiments) in return for exclusive access to gray technology.
For the last 20 years human and gray researchers have worked in tandem to great effect, creating a creature-weapon codenamed "theta" intended for use in the distant alien conflict. One human scientist, D.r winston cray, is working with the mysterious "edgar" on perfecting a viral weapon. Cray believes mating this virus with the "theta" project will yield the super-weapon the grays have long sought.
Tipped off by "edgar", D.r cray now struggles to prevent the grays from completing their weapon and destroying earth. Since the illuminati control the laboratory or area 51 cray risks everything by calling for help. he released his viral weapon within the subterranean sections of the base with the intention of creating chaos and distraction within the illuminati, hoping to stall completion of the grays plans and prompt interference from miliatry forces on the surface. The resulting infection spread to the upper sections of the base and military commanders reacted quickly by sealing the area and calling in military hazardous materials teams. After the initial hazmat team delta went missing a second unit was dispatched. Hazmat team bravo must discover the fate of team delta and discover the source of the deadly virus.
Ethan cole is a mission on hazmat team bravo. A trained biologist, cole's remarkable marksmanship and tactical skills have served his well in the army career. Cole's primary responsibility on hazmat team bravo is the operation of the AN/PEQ-61 "quickfix" scanner. If the team is to develop a countermeasure to a viral threat, the scanner will be the primary means of gaining information. The pragmatic son of a prominent doctor and respected college professor, cole does not seem to belive in little green men.
Major bridges is tough special forces officer in charge of the dod's quick reaction force. If a sensitive military installation experiences a "situation" they cannot control, major bridges and his qrf platoons are sent in to contain the threat and employ whatever countermeasures are deemed necessary.
Crispy attended west point and almost got kicked out twice. While he barely managed to graduate with a pre-med degree, his constant practical jokes got him assigned to hazmat team bravo as a chief warrant officer. He is the team's medic and is cross-trained in communications.
Jack McCan is the proud son of a military father and received a degree in biology from standford. He has repeatedly declined officer candidate school to stay in the field and remains a sergeant. An avid reader, he's never without a paperback tucked into his BDUs. He is the teams combat arm's specialist and microbiologist.
Captain anthony ramirez is a hard-nosed career soldier with 14 years of service in the united states army. After commanding a platoon in major bridges elite qrf, he was entrusted with command of hazmat team bravo. He is in extremely good shape (working out an extra 2 hours a day over and above his standard pt regimen) and loves his protein bars. His primary responsibility is team command and control, but he is cross-trained in demolitions.
D.r. Winston cray is a scientist emeritus attacked to air force flight test center, detachment 3(AFFTC det. 3) otherwise known as area 51. Originally a scientist attached to project paper clip, he was the first scientist on scene at the UFO crash-site in Roswell, New mexico. Since that event, he has been in charge of all research involved with aliens.
Many of the research scientist trapped in the lower levels of area 51 were exposed to an unknown mutagen. Possibly viral in nature, this mutagen triggered a rapid growth phase, greatly strengthening the skeletal and musclar systems. Similarity, the virus has caused a severe psychosis in all those infected.
The securtity component of area 51 was unprepared for a viral outbreak. Many of them were caught off guard and didn't have the time to put on a gasmask. Those infected by the release of the virus mutated rapidly. They seem to retain enough of their humanity to use fire arms in a rudimentary manner.
As the virus continues to mutate its human host, the victim begins to completely devolve into an animalistic state. The leaper is the final phase of human mutation and has lost all humanity. Leapers use all four limbs to move and chybrids limb surfaces. They possess wicked talons that can penetrate through body armor.
M.r white is the Illuminati's representative to the grays. Originally a scientififc peer to D.r cray, M.r white was seduced by the Illuminati and has become D.r crays nemesis. After perfecting human cloning, M.r whites research was used to create the black ops. M.r white, ever the narcissist, created several clones of himself to ensure a power base of loyal servants. M.r whites cooperation with gray's is carefully calculated to provide his the technology and weapons to eventually control the world.
Black ops are cloned humans, result of experiments with alien/ human DNA recombination. These hybrids have excellent combat reflexes and are conditioned to obey the Illuminati and grays.
Selected Blackops are given cloaking armor enhancements and specialized tactical training. Used to command squads of ordinary Blackops, the Blackops leaders are a serious threat and should be eliminated as quickly as possible.
Not much is known about the enigmatic grays. Their first contact with humankind was the result of a scout ship that experienced a malfunction ad crashed near roswell, new mexico in 1947. They communicate using gestures and telepathy. Rarely encountered, they prefer to dwell in the deep bowels of Area 51 experimenting with captive humans. The exact purpose of these experiments are known only to the grays and their Illuminati counterparts.
The theta is the ultimate biological weapon engineered by the grays to spread a mutagenic virus as quickly as possible to any carbon-based enemy. Theta can communicate and command leapers. Equipped with an electro-chemical pulse weapon, theta is an impressive killing machine. Rumors within the Illuminati elite talk of a "super theta" project.
Edgar is a deformed and bloated gray who is imprisoned by this fellow grays and Illuminati. Edgars life, the little it encompasses, remains within a large glass container. This mechanical prison keeps edgar alive as his blood is harvested to create the viral weapon. Edgar communicates via telepathy and retains the grays ability for limited telekinesis. Edgar appears to be lifeless, but his throbbing heartbeat and the eerie fluid moving through his veins warns otherwise. Edgar and D.r cray are allies against M.r whites and his nefarious plans.
