    Near the end of the Cold War, scientists in Southern California completed a project which took nearly two decades of research. Their sole end was to create a genetic modification in the human body -- a super soldier. Their work included splicing human DNA with the DNA of wolves, big cats, and other dangerous animals. Their project's end work included a man able to withstand a spray of bullets, run up walls, and clear jumps as high as twenty feet. Unfortunately, something went wrong. The man they turned into a superhuman became contaminated with a highly contagious virus, and the virus, nicknamed "Z456" copied itself and absorbed some of the superhuman's DNA, and spread quickly.

    This virus caused most humans which came in contact with it to die within three days. In six months, the human population was decimated. Government efforts to contain the virus failed miserably, and ninety-seven percent of the human population died of Z456. Only scattered remnants of humans remain in isolated corners of the world (Brazil, Russia, and the United States), and most of the rest of the world became desolated wasteland. Within ten years, however, the animals began to take back the world. Some animals even reacted well to the virus. The animal to most profit from Z456 were those of the genus Canis—the wolves, dogs, and coyotes. These animals gained the ability to shapeshift from their four-legged form to a humanoid two-legged form with dangerous, cat-like claws and heightened senses.     

    Canines of Europe and Asia adapted to more human lifestyles. They mastered fire and lived in human buildings, enjoying some comforts of human lifestyle. Canines of North and South America, however, retained the typical canine lifestyle, living in the traditional packs with the rules and regulations of the old world. In 2001 in Nova Scotia, Canada, a cluster of packs developed: Storm, Shadowed Stars, and Silent Dawn. These three packs became the foundation of what would become known as Bleeding Souls, a collection of wolf packs and one coyote clan. However, in the early spring of 2008, six and a half years after the territories become inhabited, a wildfire erupted and consumed almost the entire area. This forced the wolves and coyotes that have settled to move westward and settle in and around the Halifax area where they would attempt to rebuild.
