Gate Burst RPG

Years ago, "Gates" appeared globally, but as months passed without incident, humanity grew complacent, treating them as mere sky-scars.
Then came the Great Burst.
In a single, catastrophic afternoon, the silence shattered. The Gates exploded with raw mana and an endless tide of monsters. In those first horrific months, the global population plummeted—10% of humanity was slaughtered before a single blade could be raised in defense. Modern weapons were useless; the world was falling.
But in the ashes of the old world, hope flickered.
Some individuals didn't just survive the mana—they absorbed it. Their bodies evolved, their spirits ignited, and they "Awakened." These first Hunters became the thin line between extinction and a new era.
Now, the world has stabilized into a fragile peace, governed by the World Gate Bureau and led by the elite S-Rankers. But as the Gates grow more volatile, everyone knows the truth: the 10% was just the beginning.
The world has changed. Have you?
Humanity is rebuilding in a world fractured by Gates. Order is maintained by the World Gate Bureau (WGB), which regulates the elite S-Rank Hunters who have become the new global celebrities.
