|<font size=4>'''Back story'''</font>


A secretive government outfit, known only as <b>The Body</b>, headed a year long investigation into the affairs of [[user:Lord Pitman|Lord Pitman]] which led to the raid on his home in [[Quarlesbank]] early in July 2005. The result was an unspeakable travesty. Hordes of mutated <b>zombie corpses</b> swarmed the shocked investigation team trapping them inside [[Pitman Mansion]], spurred on by [[user:Lord Pitman|Lord Pitman]] himself. Everyone was brutally massacred before Pitman allowed himself to be taken too.
==<span style="color:green">What is the Fortress?</span>==


The Body was ripped to pieces by the unrelenting masses. Its members - <i>all named after body parts that best represented their individual skill</i> - were slaughtered like lambs. The Head fell first, and The Legs tried to run but tripped over The Feet. The Ears couldn't believe his eyes, but The Eyes had heard them coming and ran. The [[zombie]]s feasted eagerly upon their screaming victims. Pitman was given The Finger by his minions and The Nads was painfully crushed by an eye-watering blow.

For three long months, the Ears and the Eyes struggled to survive and believing themselves to be the last survivors of their organisation, all hope was lost. But one day they were reunited by a newcomer to [[Malton]]; a strange fellow that had sneaked through the military quarantine units bordering the City. He claimed to be the new Head. They formed an alliance and planned to build the <b><i>Five Fortresses</i></b> - strongholds of protection and command - before recruiting an army to enforce their beliefs. Malton needed to be cleared of the [[zombie]] infestation and innocents needed to be saved.

What is the Fortress?

In July 2005 a secret government outfit, known only as The Body, raided the home of Lord Pitman in Quarlesbank. The result was an unspeakable tragedy. Hordes of mutated zombie corpses swarmed the shocked investigation team. The Head fell first, and The Legs tried to escape but tripped over The Feet. The Ears couldn't believe his eyes, but The Eyes had heard them coming and ran. The zombies feasted eagerly upon their screaming victims. Pitman was given The Finger by his minions and The Nads was painfully crushed by an eye-watering blow.

Of the fifty man team that had entered Pitman Mansion, only two survived. The Ears and The Eyes fled in separate directions in an attempt to escape the madness. However the disease had spread and they soon found that Malton had been quarantined, trapping them inside, alone and helpless.

Eventually the Ears and the Eyes were reunited by a newcomer to Malton; a mysterious stranger who had sneaked through the military quarantine units bordering the City. He claimed to be the new Head and they believed him. They formed an alliance and planned to build Five Fortresses - strongholds of protection and command. Malton needed to be cleared of the zombie infestation and innocents needed to be saved.

The incredible Story of the Fortress had begun.
