From Hell Rising Wiki
In the oppressive haze of death, rule of law has all but crumbled.
Eternal darkness has gripped Twilight City. What's worse, gruesome fiends and horrific ghouls seem to have emerged from the shadows. Hundreds are already dead, and most of them are still walking the streets. What will become of you, fair citizen? Will you become a meal... or will you fight back the hordes? Perhaps you'll even join their ranks.
Screams pierce the still air, accompanied occasionally by the sound of explosions in the distance. The lights have gone out, and morning has not been seen for days. You are now entering Twilight city limits, where any day can be your last. Population: Dwindling.
twi·light – noun
- the soft, diffused light from the sky when the sun is below the horizon, either from daybreak to sunrise or, more commonly, from sunset to nightfall.
- the period in the morning or, more commonly, in the evening during which this light prevails.
- a terminal period, esp. after full development, success, etc.: the twilight of his life.
- a state of uncertainty, vagueness, or gloom.

Update - Posted: 12/14/08
- Don't eat the red snow! Twilight City now has a very basic weather system. As time goes on it may actually serve a purpose. Buildings also now have circuit breakers. These can be used to turn power on and off, provided the power plant is running, of course. Unpowered buildings are also now harder to search for items.
NEW SKILL. - Posted: 12/04/08
- It's about time the Zombies got a new skill, don't you think? Cue "Strength in Numbers". Now zombies have a reason to work together. Let's see some togetherness, rotbags! :) Players who bought "Smell Rot" will already have this new skill.
Teeny Tiny Update. - Posted: 12/01/08
- The Beta's not off, but I figured I'd throw in some long overdue updates anyway. Helmets now provide protection from damage, though the Helmet and Kevlar Vest won't block damage from the same blow. Additionally, some weapons are now really good at taking down barricades. It should be pretty obvious which ones. (No, not Assault Rifles. Those are already awesome!)
Snuh. - Posted: 10/19/08
- In the interest of evening out the races, Vampires and Zombies have recieved a to-hit upgrade. To offset this just a little, humans can now get into "barricaded" buildings. (As opposed to lightly barricaded only.) Hopefully the former will encourage more undead play, and the latter will get people out into more of the city. As always this can always be changed back, so feel free to complain on the forum!
