At the end of the world, he gave his life to save a friend, only to be reborn as an orphan with 'Crab Affinity'.

The apocalypse has come and gone, claiming humanity with it. All humans have had their 'Souls' stolen and claimed by monsters - vampires, demons, zombies - you name it. 

Reborn as Barnacles (Barns for short), the once-legendary hero claws his way back to strength under the tutelage of the gluttonous King Crab, a sentient crustacean with more vice than virtue in his shell.  

Follow Barns' journey as he rediscovers his power of rebirth, which when combined with a little 'crab magic' has the power to reset humans back to their original selves. 

It's time to take a crack at resetting the apocalypse.

Apocalypse Reset: My Crab Can Heal the World!

The Sentinel glowers over the crab, fully confident in her abilities - there's not a shred of fear in her heart.

"Barnacles. I sentence you to death by order of Empernon Yharnam- er, I mean Emperor Yharan" she spits, getting tongue tied. It's her fatal flaw - speaking without getting things mixed up.

Clancy pivots around. "NO BARNACLES."

"So you would fight?" she chides callously. Clancy raises his claws in agreement. He likes fighting.

They exchange blows, one after the other, as Clancy jabs and stabs like a maniac in her general direction. She's not able to dodge all his attacks quickly enough, so she activates her power.

The Sentinel can 'grab' any object with her mind, and move it at the speed of sound wherever she pleases. It's only one of her fearsome powers - one she's confident is enough to take out the crab.

But as she begins to focus her power on Clancy, his sheer force pushes against it. He's repelled, but only a few feet.

Not Barnacles!
