The year is 2036 on Earth.
At one point there was something like 'world peace', but it changes when a man comes to power of the largest and most profitable nation with goals that aren't in the interests of his people.
The United States government has started war, the country locked in a fierce battle with the eastern nations. Even the peace between the U.S. and Canada and Mexico is being shattered and the U.S. has locked down its borders.
Although that is no problem for the citizens of the nation, everyone is living in bliss. They're too absorbed in their games and cultural activities and technology to bother caring about what's happening around them. The government is trying to keep it that way, eliminate people trying to cause riots and make sure nothing threatens the obliviousness to the wars.
Unfortunately, an unpredicted meteor shower over a desert in Arizona won't help in the least.
These 'meteors' struck near a military base, and immediately the soldiers went to investigate. What they found were not hunks of flaming rocks, but monstrosities. Creatures of all shapes and sizes, some of them looked human, others of them far from it. Men and women with green skin, long ears, scales, fur, midgets...
The soldiers placed at the base opened fire, and called for reinforcements, and once backup arrived, the place the group of monsters was surrounded. In the original fight, some of the military had died, as well as these strange creatures. Some of them got loose, those that did were attempted to be captured.
They weren't successful in finding them.
Now there are creatures on the loose that nobody knows anything about, the military is trying to track them down, and the rest of the monsters are in a stalemate in the desert. They're surrounded, but defending themselves with what can only be described as magic, that matches even the advanced technology of the U.S.

It's a reverse Makorr, basically. Azerothians have appeared on Earth, and you can play as either someone from Earth or someone from Azeroth!

Character
: Ellen "Volt" Hanaway
Location
: Arizona, Military Base
Description
:
Ellen, commonly referred to by her peers as Volt (or just El), is part of the military force that was called in when the meteor shower hit. While she has experience with shooting a gun, she does more work with technology, and is helping keep the cameras up and running to make sure none of the creatures in the crater field get out. She has short, blond, messy hair, and stands at the average size for a twenty-five year old woman.
---
"Volt, have we got a status on the enemies?" A male soldier looked over at the camera screens.
"Oh would you stop asking that already." Ellen muttered, shooing him away, "It's the same as always."
As the man walked away, El fingered the handle of her cup, delicately taking a sip of the hot coffee inside of it and sighed, "Just another fine day at work, isn't it..."

(( Interesting... ))
Scourgelord William Morec
Arizona
Morec is a mastermind of the Scourge army, loathed by almost all, but when a strange magical ripple causes him to appear in a strange world he finds himself amongst his greatest enemies. When attacked by humans with technology beyond even gnomes and goblins, though, he finds himself forced to set aside his differences with the other races and fight for survival.
Morec flung another round of necromantic magic at the humans. They were too far away for him to ressurect any as slaves, but not far enough away for him to bombard them with his power. In this world, he found his abilities were significantly weaker.
Umbragos... where are you when I need you
? he thought with a scowl.
(( I might introduce Ivan Bloodhowl at some point. ))

Gurugnil
Arizona, Ebon Blade camp.
Gurugnil is a Knight of the Ebon Blade. He was originally a Shaman until he was struck a killing blow by Baron Rivendare. He broke free of the rest of the Scourge at the Battle for Light's Hope Chapel.
Gurgunil raised his hand. "Fire!" he shouted. The other death knight's raised their hands and fired bolts of frost.

"Blue eyes are working up again." Ellen called to the camera screens, hoping that someone in the back room or behind her would actually hear her.
The lack of response caused her to sigh and stand up, taking another sip of coffee before staring at the screens, "Just... don't do anything important while I'm gone... oh wait, you don't do anything important."
Volt rolled her eyes and set her cup down, before heading out into the rest of the bunker.

Morec

Morec fell back to the inner lines as a round of bullets managed to tear through his armor. "Kohler!" he shook his head.
Oh yeah
...
"Healer! I need a healer!"

Ellen looked around, "Anyone here? We've got the blue eyes being a bit more rowdy then needed...?" She sighed, everyone was too preoccupied to notice her. She growled and headed out of the bunker, grabbing the rifle locked away with her stuff on the way out.
"Just fire off some shots myself, these thinks making me have to spend time working instead of on vacation..."

Major Mason "Trigger" Rak
Arizona, Military Base
Mason is a sniper and demolitions expert, at least that's what people guess. He was recently dispatched from Washington to assist with this threat, but beyond that there's no real indication of what part of the military he works for...
"I hear ya," Mason said through clenched teeth holding a Cuban cigar. "And frankly, I'm not real interested in how much you've got to say. You could have killed three of those things in the time you've been complaining."
Morec
Arizona
"That's what I want to know," Morec said, feeling stronger. "All that I know for certain is that we're not on Azeroth anymore, and we arn't in Outland either."
He gripped Bloodfester's hilt. "Can you perhaps grow us some cover with that magic of yours?"

Roman Slavoch Jr
Arizona
Tall, muscled, black hair and warlock
Roman fell from the sky, landing beside a familiar face. He looked up, seeing The scourgelord from Azeroth. He stood up but quickly pulled down by his imp, Fre'ject. He shouted to Morec. "Is that gnome technology?"

Character:
Deptharion
Location: Arizona
A red and black figure clad in a mountain of steel and iron towered over the soldiers, a long rust red braided beard extending from his helm. The inhabitants of this world had called him a "giant." Fools. Giants massive humanoid creatures of stone and ice or whatnot. He currently held the form of a Vrykul. One of his massive blades was brought down upon the enemy, his bones crumbling beneath the metal. He slowly expanded and grew until a maw of razor sharp teeth ripped a throat out, and a giant black wing buffeted another. A tremendous roar was let out as Deptharion rose into the air a massive black dragon.

Character: Michael *******
Location: Arizona
Michael ****** splashed cold water on his face from the sink. He was in a public restroom in Azrizona, at a campground near the spot where the incident happened. He rinsed off his hands, as well, removing his latex gloves that still had small speckles of blood and dirt on them. He'd been lucky. With all the commotion about the rift and the invaders, most people had forgotten about the disappearance of Sharon Baker.
"
@#$%...
" he thought, splashing more water on his face, trying to clear his thoughts. "
&*!@... I've gotta stop. I'm gonna get caught. If Dad found out... Jesus... I seriously gotta stop this. This is my last one. Promise,
" he thought again, looking up at the mirror and looking himself in the eyes. "
Promise!
" he thought bitterly, trying to promise himself that he was telling the truth. "
I promise that it will be the last one. No more. I'm done.
"
He nodded to himself and flushed the gloves down the toilet, moving back to his truck. It was a genuine HMMWV, and he had a fifty caliber machine gun stowed away safely in the trunk. Under the driver's seat, he had two rolls of duct tape, a hunting knife--now thoroughly cleaned, and a spool of bailing wire.
He put the vehicle into drive, and began driving back toward the battlefield, where most of his teammates were already headed.

Morec
Arizona
Morec grined. "Ebon scum!" he yelled to the knights of the Ebon Blade, "we've got some more cover. And for death's sake
try
and kill them!" He hurled another blast of necromantic magic.

"Aw shut up." El spat, opening the bunker door and heading out onto the desert ground. She squinted through the harsh sunlight and glanced across the field, through the lines of military soldiers holding back the armor of martians, or monsters, or whatever the heck they were.
