1990 New England Incident

The **1990 New England Incident**, also known as the **New Jersey-Delaware Massacre** or the **New England Murders** was a catastrophic event of violence, peril, and chaos. 5 years after the 1985 Minnesota Incident, the perpetrator of the Lanesboro Massacre moved his operations to Hawthorne, New Jersey, and later Wilmington, Delaware. The 1990 incident was way deadlier than 1985, due to the population of Wilmington compared to Lanesboro and the more prominent deaths, and was the first incident in *Apocalypse Archived* in which all main perpetrators were killed amidst it.

## New Jersey

In 1990, the Necromancer, or the mastermind of the Lanesboro Murders, expanded his plans of world domination to New Jersey after being tipped off somehow of the location of rogue OCA members in the new group known as the Bloodhound Mercenaries. After detecting a corpse he could use for battle, he found the location of the base in the outskirts of Hawthorne, New Jersey. The Necromancer raided the base, minorly wounding Avery Davieswhile executing the murders of numerous agents apart of the Mercenaries. Olivia Banks, a former colonel of the OCA, was among those that were murdered during the raid. After the Necromancer realized that the remaining mercenaries fled the state, the Necromancer vacated New Jersey.

## Delaware

After leaving New Jersey, the Necromancer traced the mercenaries to Wilmington, Delaware, but couldn't find the base. He began to execute his plan to capture Delaware, as he has already taken Minnesota. He committed a series of violent murders on the city of Wilmington, wiping out the vast majority of people in the city except for the surviving members of the Bloodhound Mercenaries. The Necromancer used his powers to resurrect those he's killed as zombies to do his bidding and find the survivors. He found a lumberjack in the woods named Jack, and so the Necromancer murdered Jack before resurrecting him into a tertiary antagonist known as the Undead Axeman. Although the Axeman didn't live long, the Axeman managed to kill off another member of the Bloodhound Mercenaries before it died.

Towards the finale of the Necromancer's plan to destroy Delaware, the mercenaries, with the help of Tundra, track the Necromancer's location and confront him at the Wilmington Christian Church. The group and the Necromancer engage in battle before the Necromancer is eventually killed, putting an end to his plans of world domination once and for all.
