Six decades ago, aliens attacked Earth, sparking a medical and technological boom. A small portion of people began reporting about superpowers, while others reported about monsters, as humans became a global minority by 40 percent. In a desperate act to maintain order, the world's governments constructed two organizations: The Scrappers to fix and sell alien scraps as vehicles or weapons to the people or to the government, and The Guardians to maintain the law and protect the people with their powers. In order to prevent another invasion, the United Nations began Earth Defense, a mix of people from every corner of the earth, some with powers and some without, that reports directly to the UN. Civ Domes were also scattered throughout the earth in case of attack by mutants or aliens. The Western nations treat them as stars among men, whereas Russia and China, along with a few other Eastern nations, view them as weapons. But this is not their story. This is a story of The Gators-those people trying to help this worn and weary society.
