Once upon a time, there was a fat little hamster named Patrick.
Patrick was poor, since he had spent all of his money buying hamster treats, so he had to live with his mommy hamster. Patrick was very lonely. No one wanted to talk to the guy who lived with his mom and had more fat folds than a shar-pei. He spent all of his days hanging out alone in his basement/bedroom playing on his computer.
One day, he was boredly typing a message to an online friend when he accidentally misspelled 'creatures'. Instead, he wrote the word 'rescreatu'.
"Hmm..." Thought Patrick. "That's an interesting word. I should find a way to use it."
So Patrick stayed up late into the night, typing away, letting his ideas flow until his mother told him he had to go to bed. He kept working on it the next morning and, by lunch time, Patrick had created the first Creatus.
Over the next week, using the finely-toned computer skills he had gained from playing on his Mac all day, he created the Rescreatu website, pixel by pixel. Soon, he had the foundations for a fully-functioning virtual pet site.
Problem was, there was no one to run it.
Patrick could not successfully run the site himself (it could cut into his hamster treat time), but he still had no friends who could help him.
So Patrick spent days surfing forums and chatrooms, looking for beings like himself. Beings with great talents, few friends, free time, and empty wallets.
It wasn't too long before he had applications coming at him left and right. He read them all thoroughly, reviewed their qualifications, interviewed each candidate extensively over the computer, researched each one's criminal and work backgrounds, then threw them all into a hat and pulled some out at random. Patrick was lucky enough to pull out a great team. He gained some real interesting people as his staff, such as Allen, another lifeless being, but one who intended to lead his army of minions to world domination. And, of course, Broken, who had a thing for throwing random mystery contests asking people to write interesting forum posts.
Soon, Patrick had his dream site up and running. Rescreatu grew in popularity. New people joined every day, intent on hatching their own creatu. Soon, there were people who practically made their homes on the site, such as Ramencow, who took up residence in the Enchanted Spring.
And, as Rescreatu grew in popularity, so did Patrick.
Pat wasn't friendless anymore. Sure, he was a fat hamster who lived with his mom, but now he was a popular fat hamster that lived with his mom. He had moved up in the world. His site's success brought him the attention and love he had always wanted. It also helped get him a little extra money to help pay the hamster treat bills
But, most importantly, it started something even bigger than Pat's largest fat fold. It brought hundreds of people together, from across the globe, all on the neutral grounds of Atquati, Relcore, Scria, and Reiflem to fulfill one purpose.
To hatch them all.
And that is the story of Rescreatu.
