The Story.

In March 2003, a seemingly small medical discovery occurs. During a post-mortem on a dead farmer, the mortician discovered an unclassified virus residing in the brain. Experimentation began within hours, to find the effects of this virus on different species of animals. It was found that once the virus is in the bloodstream, within seconds the virus attacked the brain, altering the neural patterns of the brain and destroying the memory glands. All animals became extremely hostile in under a minute. The test subjects are executed shortly after, due to the inherent danger of infection. One test animal, a hawk, managed to escape before being terminated.

Within one week, the virus had spread across Europe, infecting dogs, birds, and more than half of the continent's population. The UN decides, as a last resort, to have every country's military intervene to quarantine the virus and prevent it from spreading to other continents. All European citizens are told to stay in their homes, and leave their houses only if absolutely neccessary, until the military has completed a safe bunker nearby. Most, if not all citizens choose to disobey this. They move as quickly as possible by plane, train, boat or car, to the nearest safe bunker, completed or otherwise, but find that the military has decided to halt all outbound travel. Sadly, many Europeans fall to the infection before ever reaching the safe bunkers, and few are saved. As the virus begins to pop up in all seven continents, the infection is soon declared a worldwide epidemic, and the military is ordered to shoot on sight any people who are suspected to be infected.

A few things Hitman missed:

- When the SDK is released I will try to do some coding; If I fail miserably (which I most certainly will :)), we will need a coder on the team as well
- The Story in Hitman's post is just the backstory, the game story will be a continuation of the backstory
- The MOD will be developed as a Single-Player mod; once this is complete we may add multiplayer
- The MOD is aiming to "feel" similar to Half-Life 2, but it will be much darker and scarier
- We may or may not need voice actors, depending on how good the current team is at voice acting

If you've got any questions, or you want to join the team, post here or email me or Beat-Fl33t. Make sure to have some examples of your work if you want a place on the team.
