Overview

Bloody Bay is the first of the four PvP Zones. A hero or villain must be at least level 15 to enter Bloody Bay. All characters in this zone will be automatically raised or lowered to level 25 while in this zone. This zone is a PvP zone in which heroes may fight villains and villains against heroes.

History

Long ago, slavers coming to the Americas used the tiny town of Oceanview as a sort of “sorting pen.” In 1817, one group of slaves, perhaps encouraged by spirits of the long-lost Mu founders, rose up in rebellion. A massive battle was waged, and it is said the bay ran red with blood. The island was forever after called “Bloody Bay.” Its dark past was eventually forgotten by all but those who visited the sacred cemeteries in the Upland Woods, and by the 1900s, Bloody Bay prospered.

Then came Shiva, the destroyer of worlds.

In 1989, shards of a potentially world-shattering meteor destroyed in the 1960s rained down on the island. Besides the damage caused by the impact and radiation, residents reported a far more sinister phenomenon - the dead rose. But these were no mere zombies. The dead seemed to be infected by some sort of alien life-form. Corpses rose from the earth surrounded by bluish protoplasm, and attacked any living thing they crossed.

The island was quickly evacuated and abandoned to the horrific “Shivans” by Arachnos.

Recently, it was discovered that the asteroids that crashed on Bloody Bay have valuable properties desired by both Longbow and Arachnos. Teams from both organizations have established bases on the island to study the samples, but gathering fragments is incredibly difficult thanks to the presence of the monstrous Shivans and other scavengers.

Notes

This zone was added to the game for Heroes and Villains in Issue 6.
All characters are "adjusted" to combat level 25 in this zone, no matter what their level is outsize the zone. If a player is higher than threat level 25, then that player is auto-exemplared down to level 25 and may lose additional powers he or she has gained since level 25. If lower than level 25, the player is automatically sidekicked up to level 25.
