Endgame: The 12 Bloodlines and Their Social Media Accounts

Don't even think about sharing this article.

ThisEndgame: The Calling blog is a quick reference on the 12 bloodlines, for anyone who’s following Endgame: The Calling’s contest/immersive journey. If you’re not taking part in the hunt for $500,000 in gold coins, then you definitely should. Like, right now. Seriously – DO NOT DELAY. In fact, here’s a link. Just buy the book to get started!

OK, with that out of the way, let’s start take a look at these 12 bloodlines that serve as the centerpiece for the entire book/game. The downlow is that, in the book, aliens picked 12 bloodlines to represent humanity in a global survival game. Each bloodline keeps a player at ready in case the games begin. Now, it’s finally started. A representative from each of the ancient bloodlines uses his special training in a contest to find three keys. Whoever finds the keys first, wins. And winning means the bloodline gets to live. The stakes are HIGH in this first book.

Here are the bloodlines, for a quick reference, with their associated Google+ pages and Twitter accounts. Interesting note — these “characters” are made very realistically, talking about modern day topics like 4chan and mundane things like getting coffee or going to the gym. Last posts are all around mid-September to Oct. 1. They did a good job making these folks realistic!

(Note: AncientSocieties.com has more detailed information on each of these tribes/bloodlines.)
