Something ancient and alien is stirring at the bottom of the ocean, something that may or may not have humanity's best interests in mind, and the world is about to change. Then some really strange and spooky things start happening. One such technician, Michael Altman, a geophysicist, discovers gravity fluctuations coming from the center of the crater. DredgerCorp have contracted out to specialists from many different continents (now called "sectors") to serve as technicians and foremen. Their compound is settled on the edge of a shantytown where the underprivileged locals live. One such corporation, known as "DredgerCorp", actually a front for the military, is camped out in the Yucatan Peninsula on the edge of a massive underwater crater known as Chicxulub. Now, they use robots to comb the landscape and ocean floor to dredge up anything left that could be used for energy and ore. Far in the future, Earth's resources are dwindling, and major mining corporations have already wasted thousands of lives and dollars fighting over the surface of the Moon during a war called "the moon skirmishes".
This is how the Dead Space mythos all began – how one man's discovery formed the foundations of an unfathomable future.ĭead Space: Martyr is about Michael Altman, the religious figure at the heart of the church of Unitology, and his clumsy journey from a lowly computer tech to an unwilling cult legend. One message from the Marker was clear: Prove yourself worthy of eternal life, or the slate will be wiped clean on Earth. When Michael secretly obtains a small piece of the marker, he brings these visions to the world above. Close proximity to the stone caused strange occurrences: visions of the dead, vivid dreams, and violent murders. But what they discover possessed a mysterious power. He and his girlfriend Ada lead an excavation team to the underwater crater, determined to find the source of the baffling message. The Church of Unitology begins with Michael Altman, a geophysicist who discovered a mysterious signal emitting from deep within the Chicxulub crater. Tor is proud to launch the first novel in this amazingly imaginative and thought provoking video game universe that looks deep into the origins of humanity and of a vast onslaught of horrifying creatures known as necromorphs.
