The Apocalypse

“Peoples of the world - you appear bent upon the destruction of a civilization that has taken centuries to build, and the extinction of life on earth.”

“If that is your will ... so be it!”

“We, the Apocalypse, demand an immediate cessation of this insane violence, or we will end it for you with a force you cannot conceive.”

“We have the power!”

“The choice is yours!”

  2. In all seriousness, I only had a brief dalliance with Gamma World - was the Apocalypse organization ever detailed to any great extent in supplements?

  3. ...said in the voice of Keanu Reeves, ala the remake of The Day The Earth Stood Still?

  4. The Apocalypse was never detailed at all. Part of the point was that, before the End, no one even knew who the Apocalypse was or why they were acting as they did. And of course, to inhabitants of the Gamma World, they were a shadowy group from 150 years in the past, assuming they even knew of their existence, which was unlikely.

  5. Re: Keanu

    You are a cruel, cruel man to remind of that project's existence. Here's hoping it never comes to pass.
