More DescriptionThe world of Totallyon is one decades into the future, where nuclear war has long since occurred, separating the peoples of the world. There are those who were affluent and lived in luxury, surviving the wars to find safe existence in the domed cities which were previously constructed to protect them from the toxic world in the event of nuclear wars. However, many less fortunate peoples survived the harsh conditions of the world outside the domed cities. This was a world of toppled buildings, refuse, pollution, toxic wastelands and the continual struggle to survive. These peoples were labeled, 'Old World Terrestrials,' or OWTs, the original human beings before genetic engineering was introduced. Such are now nomadic tribesmen, fighting against the Corporate Kings who rule the domed cities. The Corporate Kings are captains of industry who introduced genetic super beings which had pushed OWTs to the breaking point in the geopolitical food chain, until initiating a global nuclear conflict. Totallyon is a Gene-Drone, the Captain of a nuclear powered train, 'Destiny,' that spans forty-five feet in width, running on four rails. The train is a global military machine that circuits the earth at speeds of 500 miles per hour. Totallyon is the highest ranking military officer, with the duty to keep order and destroy the OWTs, whose greatest weapon is terrorism. Yet, in the midst of this ongoing war, there are corrupt politicians secretly working for the Corporate Kings to produce more advanced genetically engineered beings from Multi-Phylum's base, the Hexa-Dome, located on the Martian frontier. Genetic imports known as Neo-Drones and Sub-Drones begin to flood the market, fueling even more conflict as Corporate Kings and politicians play a geopolitical game of chess without regard to life. Totallyon will experience many trials and adventures. He is unwillingly thrust into a partnership with a young OWT female by the name of Cherry-Cola, who attempts to find human emotion in Totallyon. His other companion is that of the artificial intelligence module, the Delta-7 unit. All are set in a surreal world of events, competing for the greatest war machine ever devised, 'Destiny.'
