Agartha

The House which resides in Agartha, home to Doctor Monty.

―Doctor Monty

**Agartha**, also known as the **Aether**, the **Infinite**, and the **Final Universe** (all by Doctor Monty), **Paradise**, the **House**, and **The Place Above Creation**, is a location that is first mentioned in *Season One* of *The Walking Dead X Call of Duty Zombies*. It is as dimension that exists outside of the known and unknown Universe. It is known as the first dimension and is the home of the Keepers, and the former home of the Apothicons.

It is controlled by the powerful, ancient keeper known as Doctor Monty and placed above all of creation, separating it from the multiverse and the Dark Aether.

## Pre-Apocalypse

### In The Beginning

In the beginning, the Keepers inhabited Agartha and had created the Summoning Key to harness the power within the dimension. A Keeper remembered only as "The First One" would seed to other, uninhabited dimensions with new life using the Summoning Key. However, a group of Keepers discovered a dimension known as the "Dark Aether", opposite to Agartha. This dimension corrupted the Keepers, causing a schism in the group. Among these corrupted Keepers was the Shadowman. During the Shadowman’s corruption, the being known as Monty became corrupted in an attempt to save his friend. The Keepers soon fell into civil war, marking the beginning of the War of Agartha. After the war, the corrupted Keepers were banished from Agartha to the Dark Aether and eventually evolved into the malevolent race of the Apothicons.

Hellbent on returning to Agartha, the Apothicons planted Divinium meteors in different dimensions in order to cause chaos amongst the humans that reside them. They also created a device known as the Aether Pyramid to harness the power beneath Agartha. Their plan worked, and a gateway opened in Earth, allowing the Apothicons to escape and attack mankind. However, four heroes known as Primis, along with the Keepers, fought back the Apothicons in a terrible battle known as The Great War.

Later, after touching the Aether Pyramid (now known as the M.P.D), Edward Richtofen became obsessed with finding Agartha and initiated a decades old plan to take control of it. As a result of Richtofen’s actions, Samantha Maxis was teleported to the M.P.D where she entered it, while her father, Doctor Ludvig Maxis, was teleported to The Crazy Place, where he learned to fuse his soul with electronic devices. After being brought to the Moon by Groph and Schuster, Maxis tells Samantha to “*kill them all*” and kills himself as his soul fuses with the Moon’s electronics. As a result of these events, Samantha assumes control of the Aether.

Richtofen later gathered “Tank” Dempsey, Nikolai Belinski, and Takeo Masaki to initiate his goals. When the group, known as Ultimis, arrived at Kino Der Toten, they visited the house’s attic in two versions, one as a normal room, and one that is completely destroyed and covered in blood, holding many teddy bears.
