The World Of Dogboy

Places

Megaton City

  • People shop, talk, work, and play through virtual reality thanks to VirtPods and Omni-Cuffs
  • After the UnPlugs caused the nuclear winter of 2018, dome shields were placed around cities to protect them
  • Weather is controlled and disasters are scheduled
  • “Natural” disasters have become a sporting event or a place to bring a date
  • People started creating dare games or gambling games as part of the disaster entertainment

Freedom Isle

  • When transbeings first started to appear, they were treated not well. Many fled to an island to form their own country. Even though transbeings are more accepted, many still choose to live and work on Freedom Isle.
  • Home to Hero Hill and the headquarters of the International League of Super-Transbeings (ILOST).

Downfeather Asylum

The Wastelands

  • A radioactive barren, desert land with no water or shade
  • Controlled by the UnPlugs
  • Created after the nuclear missile launch of 2018

Unified lands

  • After normal people learned that monsters, aliens, superheroes, and the like existed, they began to riot and attack transbeings. The world governments, fearing that the increase in hate crimes would end civilization, released the Love Bug. The Love Bug is a modified virus that forces everyone to “be more tolerant of others.”
  • Not only did the Love Bug outbreak stop the fighting, but it unified the nations. Most of Europe became the European Union; Russia and its close neighbors became Russia; all the nations in the Middle East joined to become the Middle East Empire; all of Africa–and the nearby islands–became the United Lands of Africa; India remained India; the Oriental nations became the Asian Coalition; the countries in North and South America became the American Alliance; and the polar regions–too far and sparsely populated for the outbreak to take a strong hold–became the Polar Frontier.
  • The individual nations still mostly run themselves; the unions are more for if an nation is attacked or one needs aid in some way.
