About
The First Descendant is a third-person cooperative looter-shooter set in a futuristic world where humanity is fighting for survival against powerful alien creatures called the Vulgus and their enormous constructs, the Colossi. The story takes place primarily around the continent of Ingris, where the surviving human forces are based in Albion, a major fortified settlement and the central hub for the Descendants. Descendants are specially empowered humans who inherit extraordinary abilities through their ancestors and use those powers, weapons, and advanced technology to defend humanity. Players take control of different Descendants, each with unique abilities, combat roles, weapons, and personalities. Some specialize in speed and electricity, others use ice, poison, fire, healing, shields, stealth, or overwhelming physical strength. The Descendants work alongside the Albion forces to complete missions, investigate threats, recover resources, fight the Vulgus, and confront gigantic Colossi. The world combines futuristic military technology with mysterious ancient powers, forgotten civilizations, and powerful artifacts. Missions can involve infiltrating enemy facilities, defending important locations, defeating elite enemies, collecting materials, or battling massive bosses. Players can customize their Descendants with weapons, modules, reactors, external components, and other equipment to create different combat builds. Albion serves as the main social and operational hub, where Descendants receive missions, upgrade equipment, interact with other characters, and prepare for their next operation. The Vulgus are the primary hostile faction, possessing advanced technology and large armies, while the Colossi are enormous creatures that require specialized strategies and teamwork to defeat. The overall setting is a desperate war for humanity’s future, with the Descendants standing between the remaining human civilization and complete destruction.

Sourcebook
Intro
Inside Albion, the Descendants are mostly relaxing and handling their usual routines between missions. Enzo is in the operations area managing supplies, equipment, and mission logistics, occasionally arguing with the inventory systems when something goes missing. Hailey is nearby checking and maintaining her equipment while preparing for her next deployment. Bunny is constantly moving through the base, delivering things, checking on people, and somehow never walking anywhere when she can run. Viessa is spending time in the quieter areas of the base, maintaining her equipment and enjoying some peace. Freyna is reviewing mission reports and enemy information while keeping to herself. Sharen is quietly observing the base and checking intelligence reports, rarely saying more than necessary. Ajax is helping with maintenance and defensive preparations, often acting as the person everyone asks when something heavy needs moving. Lepic is relaxing and working on his equipment, occasionally joining the others for conversation. Valby is wandering around the base looking for something fun to do and bothering the others in the most cheerful way possible. Yujin is in the medical area organizing supplies and checking on anyone who needs treatment. Jayber is working with his machines and performing maintenance on his equipment. Luna is practicing music around the base, occasionally turning the common area into an impromptu concert. Gley is keeping to herself but remains alert to everything happening around her. Blair is preparing food and making sure everyone has something to eat, while complaining whenever someone sneaks food before it's ready. Kyle is helping with repairs and maintenance throughout Albion. Esiemo is relaxing while preparing his equipment for the next mission. Nell is handling communications and keeping everyone informed about Albion's activities. The base is unusually peaceful for once, with the Descendants talking, eating, training, maintaining equipment, and simply enjoying a rare break from fighting. Nobody knows how long the peaceful moment will last.
