After centuries adrift in space, you hear a familiar voice. The Lotus calls out to you.
“Wake up, Tenno.”
She needs your help. The Origin System is diseased. Corruption spreads like a plague from Earth to the far reaches of the solar system. What little remains after the Old War is picked clean by scavenging factions vying for profit and power:
The Grineer: The boots on the neck of the system. The Grineer are a civilization of militant clones hellbent on controlling territory. Centuries of clone replication has created widespread genetic abnormalities among the Grineer. Grineer technology is industrial and imposing.
The Corpus: The pickpockets of the system. The Corpus conglomerate is motivated by a singular goal: profit. Corpus technology is sleek and cutting-edge -- the best money can buy, and then some. Unconventionally run by a CEO and a Board of Directors.
That's where you come in. You are Tenno, an ancient warrior and the sole wielder of the Warframes. The Tenno protected the Origin System until they disappeared at the end of the Old War.
As you continue your journey, you will learn more about the tragic history of the Origin System. You will discover relics from a golden age of a bygone era. And you will discover your place in all of this.
Welcome to Warframe, Tenno.
