The year is 2635. A techno-biological virus has transformed the human race and gifted some with superhuman abilities.

Artemis Rhyex has lived in this virus-stricken dystopia for sixteen years, beaten and starved, surviving virtually on the bottom of society.

As luck and choices take her higher through the echelons, she begins to notice that the divide between the privileged Overseers, the commoner Purities, and the super-human terrorist Shades, is far deeper than she has been led to believe.

When Artemis's status takes a sudden plunge, and she transforms from a Purity into the one thing she fears most, she is forced to confront the world's growing injustice while adapting to her new powers and learning to survive in a world that now wants her dead.

She joins forces with the insane Shade "Pyro" on a vendetta to destroy the Overseers' fascist regime, and ultimately challenge society's fundamental ideas of what it means to be a person.
