Legacy: Dark Shadows

In the year 1930 Japanese scientists discovered an unusual substance which when injected in human body starts to regenerate body cells stopping the process of aging. However, with the first few volunteers it became clear that something has gone wrong: after ten days the rejuvenation was so intense that a body couldn’t take that much of a shock. All of the subjects died of a stroke. In 1936 Japan and Germany sign the Anti-Comitern Pact. Hitler’s leading scientist Josef Mengele negotiated the terms of the cooperation with Japanese concerning the research of the regenerative substance. These negotiations lasted until 1941, when Germans realized that their soldiers aren’t able to bare the cold Russian climate. Japanese, concerned for their interests in Russia, decided to help them unconditionally. In December, 1941 the Institute for Hereditary Biology with its leading scientist dr. Mengele received a mysterious package from Japan. Only the chosen ones knew that it contained all records regarding the creation of the regenerative substance. To get to Germany as soon as possible, pilots of the cargo plane had to fly over the enraging Stalingrad front.

It’s the year 1941. The journalist of Moskovske Izvestie, Jevgenij Borisov is located in one of trenches of the Stalingrad’s war zone. Talking to the soldiers he finds out about the great German invasion. He decides to gather as much information and photos as possible before he returns to Moscow. He leaves the trench and notices a crashed airplane. In the crater by the plane he sees a wooden box. He opens it and takes a look at the files. His heart starts to beat faster...

In 1976 Jevgenij Borisov manages to figure out the files he pulled out from the German airplane 35 years ago. By that time he was already 60 and the thought of the eternal youth completely possessed him. Several years later he manages to complete the serum and injects it into his blood stream. He became immortal. To conceal his secret, every 30 years he faked his death so that he could return as his own heir. Once he’s realized there was no time barrier, he decided to build the largest business empire in the world. In March 2020 he made a deal with the corrupted government of the League of Nations about the conquest of the Universe. He started to build colonies on Mars and asteroids. In the year 2100 unsatisfied with the world order he decides to take matters into his own hands and take over the entire world. To succeed in his intentions he needed an army of invincible soldiers. He decides to initiate the program BioRoboSoldier (BRS). The factory for making these cloned monsters was built on the asteroid Pallas, and in an old Russian military base he built the sleeping chambers. There he gathered his army and waited for the right moment to attack.

Ren Silver is a private investigator. She used to work for the police, but thanks to her stubbornness instead of the promotion she got fired. That hurt her mother (also the police officer) more than Ren. As an investigator she usually worked on boring cases of unfaithful husbands and missing pets. She has an office in an old warehouse. From time to time she would work on bigger cases with her friends Ted, the journalist, and Hacker. Across the hall from her office is a laboratory of a goofy guy named Charles who is, apart from Ted, Hacker and Winny, the taxi driver one of Ren’s rare friends.
