After the failure of the Quantum Accelerator technology that brought the Earth to a
second onslaught from Hell's denizens, and after a series of interplanetary court cases
showed the UAC's lack of ethicsin the management of Gateway technology, the corporation was
divested of assets and many of its surviving officials were sentenced to years of prison.
The substantial corporate assets were assigned to the newly formed Union Aerospace Armed
Forces, a multiplanetary security force in charge of keeping Hell from ever reaching our
dimension again.
To pursue its commitment, the UAAF developed a series of Hallion Colliders, devices that
would supplant the ineffective Quantum Accelerators, ensuring that all interstellar
teleportation would from then on remain isolated from any Gates of Hell.
For some time, things seemed well, but eventually the UAAF, by far the greatest military
force known to man, came under conflict with various colonies which accused the institution
of overstepping its bounds and misusing its authority. This lead to the recent state of
interstellar guerrilla warfare and political plotting that has destabilized the UAAF,
splitting it into various fractions jockeying for power.
Your situation
After your successful mission to destroy the Quantum Accelerators and once again baffle
the forces of Hell, you were accepted as one of the architects of the UAAF, but were
eventually forced to renounce your chair in its committee after the use of excessive force
was alleged in a dispute within an ex-UAC colony. It wasn't really your thing, anyway.
Too much paperwork. The worsening situation, however, did concern you, and you used your
newly gained freedom from responsibility to play a role in disentangling some of the
disputes the increasing rivalries produced. When things went out of control you proposed a
plan, Operation Kick-ass, to correct the situation, but it was blocked and your public image
was damaged by opponents, particularly with the much publicized study stating that
repeated use of the UAC Berserk, Medikit and Stimpack brands of first-aid supplies could
cause psychosis and paranoia in users who had already been through severe trauma. This
has left you ostracized from the political arena, unable to intervene in any diplomatic way.
Evil unleashed
With you out of the picture, the political climate became even more turbulent. One day,
news arrived that Hell's minions were back, invading parts of the Earth. Allegations and
accusations flew to and from as factions and groups blamed sabotage, espionage or the UAAF
itself for unleashing the terrors once more. The guerrilla warfare became all-out war of
all sorts; human versus human, human versus hellish monster, and even monster versus
monster. Behind this cosmic tragedy, the Face of Evil, the elder brother of the twins you
defeated, Baphomet and the Gatekeeper, gloats over the universe and is waiting... for you.
Your plan...
You're going to find this abominable Face of Evil and kick the shards of its bones to
the ends of time, dumping all its minions into the vile hole they sprung from. Maybe then
your fellows will look up in wonder and free themselves from the blood frenzied madness
and destruction that is plunging the universe into the gaping maws of Hell.
