Daybreakers

In a world ravaged by a mysterious plague, the majority of the human population has undergone an unsettling transformation – that of vampirism. The year is 2019, and the once blue skies of the planet seem to be perpetually shrouded in the ominous shadow of the undead. In the midst of this chaos, an imposing metropolis known as New Eden has emerged, a self-sustaining city designed to provide solace to the vampiric elite. At the heart of this new world order, one individual stands out for his extraordinary cunning and audacity – Edward Dawkins, a leading hematologist who is obsessed with unraveling the mystery behind the catastrophic plague that has ravaged humanity. Having abandoned his previous life as a respected scientist in search of answers, Dawkins finds himself at a crossroads, caught between the warring factions of the vampiric society and the fading remnants of humanity. The vampiric society in New Eden is divided into the higher echelons of society, composed of affluent and influential individuals who are content with their existence, and those on the fringes, forced to struggle for survival amidst the scarcity of blood supplies. The hierarchy is strict, and the ruling elite do not tolerate dissent or rebellion of any kind. In this foreboding world, Dawkins's expertise as a hematologist and his unyielding determination to unravel the truth behind the plague make him an object of fascination for the powerful leaders of the city, particularly the sadistic and cunning Samuel Abbot, the chief of the Blood Products Board. Abbot sees immense potential in Dawkins and decides to recruit him to spearhead a research team that will work tirelessly to concoct a serum capable of replenishing the dwindling blood supply of the vampiric elite. However, unbeknownst to Abbot, Dawkins has secretly been in contact with a group of humans known as the rebels, who have managed to survive in the shadows of New Eden and have been plotting to overthrow the vampiric regime. At the forefront of this covert operation is a young woman, Audrey Bennett, an intelligent and resourceful individual who shares a common goal with Dawkins – to find a way to restore the natural world, where both vampires and humans can coexist in harmony. Through Dawkins's research and collaboration with the covert group of vampires, the stage is set for a series of events that will change the fate of both human and vampiric societies. A new discovery is made, one that could potentially shift the balance of power in New Eden and lead to an era of unprecedented upheaval. The serum, code-named "ADAM," has finally been developed after months of tireless research and experimentation. Initially conceived as a means to create a blood substitute for the vampiric elite, ADAM has been found to have an extraordinary potential – it not only replenishes the blood supply but also shows the possibility of reversing the vampiric transformation, effectively curing those afflicted by the plague. The impact of this discovery is far-reaching and profound. As word of the ADAM serum spreads, various factions within the vampiric society begin to mobilize, each with their own agenda. Dawkins, who has become increasingly entrenched within the conflict, finds himself at the epicenter of an impending storm. While Samuel Abbot sees the ADAM serum as a means to solidify his power and control over the vampiric society, a growing faction within the society, influenced by Dawkins's research, begins to secretly cultivate the idea of using ADAM to reverse their own transformation. As a result, a rift forms between those who desire to maintain their vampiric existence and those who yearn to rediscover their lost humanity. In the midst of this maelstrom, Audrey and Dawkins must navigate this treacherous landscape to uncover the truth about the ADAM serum and ultimately decide which path to follow – one that leads to coexistence between humans and vampires or a return to the darkness of eternal bloodlust. In this gripping narrative, the once-maligned vampire lore is reimagined in a world of dark, foreboding atmosphere, as Dawkins and his companions fight against the entrenched order to reclaim hope and a chance at a brighter future for all. Will the light of redemption shine through in a world of eternal night, or will the unyielding grip of the dominant vampiric class crush the spirit of defiance that fuels the revolution?
