About Arknights: PRELUDE TO DAWN
Arknights is set in a ruined world, Terra. Catastrophes of unknown origins occur across the lands. Wherever the Catastrophes hit, large amounts of crystals known as Originium can be found, bringing an incurable disease, Oripathy. Those infected with Oripathy are granted great power but are also a new source of infection. Discrimination and oppression grew amongst the suffering masses, and as a result, a mysterious rebel faction called Reunion Movement formed, and swore to shake the world.
A separate faction, Rhodes Island, a pharmaceutical company, gathers with both infected and non-infected people, working hard to find a cure for Oripathy, choosing to take up arms and walk its own path. Two factions with similar backgrounds but different Philosophies are about to meet, and so the story of Arknights begins.
