Jebediah, arcane warrior, tires of life on this shell of a world and ascends to a higher plane of existence. Granted with godly powers, he can now fast travel through time and space, into the depths of the universe.
Wielding his metal blade - Destructo - he finds himself between worlds, accumulating wisdom and acquiring innumerous crafts. Witnessed civilizations, erstwhile, flourishing in grandeur, become decimated. What are we if not mere dust in the vast space? Yet something was keeping him restive, a cosmic disturbance, unbalanced energy.
Spawned in Planet Earth, year 2018 AD ― the era of selfishness, he was no longer threatened by dauntless creatures and mystic endeavors but by a wicked narrow-mindening scheme that permeates their so called "modern society" orchestrated by one nefarious beast, The Shadow Gov'nor.
Not all is lost, small counter groups of higher-conscious lifeforms are being gathered by Jebediah to battle against it, aiding them into a new era of splendor!
"[...] Now in these times of frustration and anger, we've come out of the darkness that kept us blind, with the torch of wisdom and the sword of knowledge, we'll leave the corruption behind. Gotta kill, gotta fight, gotta crush Demoniac [...]"
- H. Flanagan, 1989
