Generations Lost: Difference between revisions

Monobe has always wanted to know the origins and destiny of his people. He is told by his tribal elder of the stories of old and given a set of technologically sophisticated armor and an arm mounted gauntlet that projects a strange energy. Set for his journey, he leaves his people behind as he wanders through jungles and temple areas. His devices allow him to create energy ropes to swing across hazards to wide to jump and project energy beams to stop dangerous foes. Along the way he must use the gauntlet device to open doors and access different areas of the landscape which become increasing futuristic and industrial. As he pursues his ultimate goal Monobe finds out that he must collect pieces of the "captains key" or "Cap Key" to access more areas and learn yet even more from unknown areas and peoples. Monobe soon discovers that this "world" he and his people live on is not a planet but a Generation Ship "Heritage" sent from Earth (via Luna Colony) in May of the year 2037. Its purpose was to colonize a far flung world named "Hope", in an interstellar voyage that would put them in orbit around Hope in the year 2385. The Heritage was designed to support 20 generations of colonists. At the time of Monobe's discovery of what happened August in the year is now 2671 and fortunately his ancestors built the ship to sustain life for at least 700 years. The unfortunate breakdown of protocol on board the vessel throughout the many generations meant that key systems were not maintained and the automatic decentdescent systems that would have brought the Heritage down safely on Hope were not engaged and the ship stayed in orbit for more than 200 years after arrival with its occupants unaware that they needed to disembark on shuttles to the planet below.
