The four united factions
In 3000 technology ruined the planet and the human race. People became totally dependent on their screens, computers and social networks at work, in their social relationships and in their everyday lives. They spent all their time in a virtual world and they lost part of their humanity. They started to completely neglect the planet and natural resources disappeared.
When a virus corrupted their network and nearly caused the extinction of the human race, people realised they needed to change their way of life. So to protect humankind, four communities called "factions" were created to restore a balance. Today, each faction has a special role to play:
-Digital: they support technology and its new developments.
-Elemental: they preserve the planet and its people,
-Cerebral: they develop their intelligence using books, diagrams and deductions with no technology.
-Multitaskers: they supervise and combine the three other factions' discoveries.
At the age of 13, every teenager has to be tested to join one of the 4 factions and then has to respect its rules. The factions becomes their new family.
