The giant meteor that collided with the earth rocked the Antarctic, and initially caused massive tidal waves across the southern hemisphere. Although this was a catastrophic event, the worst was yet to come because the earth's rotation was slowed and its orbit around the sun was greatly altered. So much so that the entire planet was immersed in a seemingly never ending winter. Global warming became global freezing. Food became scarce and millions perished from starvation before countries could build greenhouses to save the remaining population. Warriors were trained and equipped with heat emitting elements with orders to gather survivors and find animals to breed for food. These warriors were named "The Ice Riders". Impervious to the cold and skilled in survival. Thanks for stopping by.
