The night was dark, yet the stars glittered like diamonds in the sky. Few knew the secrets of the night, but the Degenerates were among those few. You, brave members of the I.D.I.O.T. proudly carry the knowledge and skills to traverse dimensions and break the boundaries that have separated us from our goals. Be wary of threats from forces opposing your cause. The Professionals have clandestine means at their disposal, and all too often, a glowing item or interdimensional ampoule is too dangerous for them to ignore. Take care with your knowledge and guard it closely. Seek safe havens in your travels, and use portals and clocks to help you stay hidden and extend your journey. Above all, remember that this is the path of the Degenerate: the challenge, the power, and the rewards. Stand tall for you are one of the E.A.R.L.Y. Pursuing the ultimate truth of technology and the infinite possibilities of the multiverse!
