I have another idea.
Long ago, on the planet Gelidaotresed, there was a great species, the Ikh, the Ikh had spread across the whole world, mighty and advanced in their technology, they were proud of their power and grew careless and unprepared, for on the third hour third day of the third year of the third age, there was a mighty quake that shook the whole planet, this quake lasted three years and three days, all the while a terrible, scalding rain of acid rained, burning the world, melting the great towers they had built, the caves they sheltered in, the ground they dug under, all dissolved into sand.
Until on that third day of the third year, it had all ended, the sun shone bright, TOO bright, for the hundreds of thousands of years afterwards, the terrible acid rain came and went at a normal, earth like pace, but in between there was an endless, scorching sun that never moved, a hot wind that burned the skin and gave rise to sandstorms.
You may ask, "why not go somewhere else", the other side of the planet was bathed in darkness and cold, bloodstained ice, an endless rain of cold, infectious, toxic, frozen solid, razor sharp blood, the dark side was filled with horrors that only came to the firery desert during the dark rainclouds cover, inside the deep, deep, deep tombs underground, such as the shadowborn, shadows that chase you down and cloud you in darkness, mask hunters, demons that stalk you from behind when you can't see them, and the mysterious Whisper Men, with unknown origins and intents.
You are the young Ikh, Benik Vortoe (people say their surnames first), he heads out with his trusty C-55 PU to find the cause of these demons but most importantly, to find his missing friend.
So there it is, other than the whisper men the concept was all made by me.
P.S. A friend of mine said something to me about ideas being taken, i assume no-one is allowed to use these ideas without my permission?.
