Intelligence Designation

Hostile Species: WRAITH
Threat Classification: EXTINCTION-LEVEL INVASIVE FORCE
Operational Theater: Planet Earth
Status: Active Occupation

First Contact

The hostile extraterrestrial force now designated as The Wraith first appeared during the global extinction event known as Day Zero.

Without warning, unidentified orbital structures entered Earth’s atmosphere and positioned themselves above major population centers including New York City, Tokyo, and London.

From these platforms, the Wraith deployed energy-based annihilation weapons capable of reducing biological organisms to radioactive particulate matter. Within twelve hours, human civilization had collapsed.

The Wraith made no attempt to negotiate, communicate, or occupy human leadership structures. Their actions indicate that the invasion was never intended to conquer humanity. Its purpose was eradication.

Physical Description

Confirmed sightings of Wraith entities remain limited due to their preference for remote warfare and automated patrol systems.

Recovered battlefield observations describe them as:

• Tall, elongated figures standing approximately 8–10 feet in height

• Bodies encased in biomechanical armor

• Limbs unusually long and angular in structure

• Featureless or partially obscured facial region

• A central luminous energy core located within the thoracic cavity

Movement patterns are described as deliberate and mechanical, suggesting either cybernetic augmentation or a partially synthetic biology.

Their presence generates measurable electromagnetic interference within nearby communications equipment.

Known Technology

The Wraith possess technological capabilities far exceeding those previously achieved by human civilization.

Orbital Annihilation Platforms

Large atmospheric structures capable of firing focused energy beams toward planetary surfaces. These beams disintegrate organic matter at the molecular level while leaving most infrastructure intact.

This technology was responsible for the extinction of the human population during Day Zero.

Hunter Drones

Autonomous patrol machines frequently deployed throughout ruined cities. Hunter drones conduct systematic sweeps searching for signs of biological activity.

Characteristics include:

• Aerial and ground-based variants

• Energy pulse weaponry

• Thermal and electromagnetic scanning systems

• Centralized command signals

Hunter drones represent the most common hostile contact encountered by Meowlitia operatives.

Surveillance Arrays

Wraith forces maintain a global sensor network used to monitor planetary activity.

Urban environments appear to interfere with certain scanning technologies, which has allowed resistance cells to survive within dense city ruins such as Portland and Seattle.

Combat Behavior

The Wraith demonstrate a highly structured operational doctrine.

Observed patterns include:

• Systematic patrol sweeps through population centers

• Immediate extermination of detected biological life

• Heavy reliance on autonomous drones for surface operations

• Minimal exposure of primary Wraith entities to direct combat

Unlike human militaries, Wraith forces show no evidence of emotional response, retreat behavior, or negotiation attempts.

Their actions indicate a purely objective-driven campaign.

Strategic Objective

The ultimate goal of the Wraith invasion remains unknown.

Current Meowlitia intelligence has developed several working theories:

• Planetary Resource Acquisition

Earth may possess materials or biological resources required by the Wraith species.

• Environmental Conversion

The annihilation of humanity may have been intended to prepare the planet for an unknown ecological transformation.

• Biological Containment

Humanity itself may have been perceived as a threat that required elimination.

• Unknown Directive

The Wraith may be operating under motives or strategic goals beyond current understanding.

At present, no confirmed communication from Wraith forces has ever been recorded.

Known Weaknesses

Although technologically superior, the Wraith are not invulnerable.

Early resistance engagements have revealed several tactical vulnerabilities.

Urban Terrain Limitations

Dense city infrastructure appears to disrupt portions of Wraith scanning technology.

This has allowed resistance cells to establish hidden bases within large metropolitan ruins, including underground locations such as the historic Shanghai Tunnels beneath Old Town in Portland.

Small-Unit Mobility

The evolved physiology of Meowlitia operatives provides exceptional agility and mobility within collapsed urban environments.

This advantage has allowed small strike teams to evade patrol routes and ambush Wraith drones.

Drone Command Signals

Captured drone fragments suggest that many Wraith machines rely on centralized command signals.

Disrupting these signals may degrade drone coordination during combat encounters.

Further research is ongoing.

Meowlitia Strategic Response

Following the formation of the resistance during The Ashfall Oath, the Meowlitia began developing a coordinated doctrine to combat the alien occupation.

Operational strategies currently include:

• Urban guerrilla warfare

• reconnaissance and intelligence gathering

• sabotage of Wraith patrol systems

• targeted drone destruction

• territorial defense of survivor settlements

Early command centers were established beneath the ruins of Portland Oregon, while northern resistance forces later fortified territories near St. Johns Oregon to control access along the Willamette corridor.

From these positions, the Meowlitia continues to expand its operational network across the Pacific Northwest.

Current Assessment

The Wraith remain the dominant military force on Earth. However, the emergence of an organized resistance has introduced an unpredictable variable into their occupation strategy.

For the first time since Day Zero, the alien invaders face a coordinated opposition capable of learning, adapting, and fighting back.

The war for Earth is no longer one-sided.

And somewhere within the ruins of the old world, the soldiers of the Meowlitia continue preparing for the battles yet to come.

The Wraith War Timeline

This timeline documents the major events of the Wraith invasion and the rise of the resistance known as The Meowlitia. Dates are recorded relative to the beginning of the extinction event known as Day Zero.

Day 0 — The Arrival of the Wraith

Unidentified alien structures enter Earth’s atmosphere and position themselves above major human population centers including New York City, Tokyo, and London.

Orbital energy weapons fire upon the planet.

Human beings struck by the beams are disintegrated into radioactive particulate matter. Within twelve hours, most global governments, military commands, and infrastructure networks collapse. Human civilization effectively ends in a single day.

Day 3 — Global Silence

Surviving human communications networks cease functioning. Satellite systems fall offline and electrical grids fail across entire continents.

Alien patrol drones begin systematic sweeps of major cities to eliminate remaining biological life. The Wraith establish uncontested control of Earth’s surface.

Day 12 — The Ash Mutation Event

Radioactive particulate matter left behind by Wraith weapons spreads through cities and settlements across the planet.

Cats exposed to this irradiated dust begin experiencing rapid biological mutation.

Physical changes include:

• increased body size and strength

• upright mobility

• improved dexterity

• accelerated cognitive development

Many survivors also begin exhibiting fragments of human memory and behavior inherited from their former owners. A new species has emerged.

Day 90 — First Survivor Bands

Mutated survivors begin forming small territorial groups inside ruined cities. These early bands focus on survival—protecting food sources, shelter, and territory from alien patrol drones. Primitive communication and scouting networks begin forming between groups operating in cities like Seattle and Portland. However, the bands remain disorganized and vulnerable.

Day 212 — The Gathering Beneath the Ruins

Word spreads among survivor territories of a strategist known as Little Cat. Representatives from multiple survivor bands travel to a secret meeting point beneath Old Town in Portland.

The meeting takes place inside the historic underground network known as the Shanghai Tunnels.

This gathering becomes the first large assembly of the evolved survivors.

Day 213 — The Ashfall Oath

Inside the tunnels beneath Portland, Little Cat delivers a speech calling for unity and organized resistance. The assembled survivors swear a binding pledge that becomes known as The Ashfall Oath. The resistance force known as The Meowlitia is officially formed.

The tunnels are later recorded in Meowlitia history as FOB Ashfall, the birthplace of the resistance.

Year 1 — The First Resistance Operations

The newly formed Meowlitia begins conducting small-scale operations against Wraith patrol drones. Urban terrain proves advantageous to the agile fighters of the resistance. Early victories against isolated drones demonstrate that Wraith technology can be destroyed through coordinated ambush tactics.

Morale among survivor territories increases.

Year 2 — Expansion of the Resistance Network

Meowlitia command establishes hidden safe zones throughout the Pacific Northwest. One of the most important early territories emerges in the district of St. John’s located in North Portland. Due to its industrial ruins and access to the Willamette River corridor, the area becomes a strategic supply and training hub for the growing resistance.

The sector is later designated Northern Command.

Year 3 — Formation of the War Council

As the resistance expands, Little Cat establishes a centralized leadership structure known as the War Council. The council coordinates intelligence, logistics, and combat operations across multiple territories.

Specialized divisions of the Meowlitia begin forming, including:

• Urban Warfare Command

• Recon & Intelligence Division

• Field Sustainment Corps

• Shock & Breach Division

• Anomaly Response Unit

For the first time since the invasion, the Wraith encounter an organized planetary resistance.

Year 5 — The Hidden War

The Meowlitia now operates across multiple ruined metropolitan regions of the Pacific Northwest. Wraith patrol activity increases as the alien occupation begins responding to growing resistance attacks. Urban guerrilla warfare becomes the primary strategy of the Meowlitia.

Strike teams sabotage drones, gather intelligence, and protect surviving settlements. The conflict has officially become a prolonged war.

Present Day — The War for Earth Continues

The Wraith remain the dominant military force on the planet. However, the resistance created beneath the ruins of Portland continues to grow. Across hidden tunnels, abandoned factories, and shattered city streets, new recruits train and prepare for future battles.

The war that began on Day Zero is far from over.

And somewhere in the ruins of the old world, the soldiers of The Meowlitia are still fighting to reclaim their planet.
