Set in an alternate reality of 1920s Chicago, we follow the rise of Emilio Enzo, a man with a broken past and a destructive future. As a child, Emilio was institutionalized by the state due to a traumatic event he endured. Through experimental psychiatric treatment Emilio's mind became fragmented, leaving him with a personality disorder and a penchant to lash out. He grows up on the streets of the Chicago slums where he rises through the ranks of the criminal underworld. Through the use of his distinctive gold sunglasses left to him by his father, Emilio dons them allowing his enigmatic alter ego to take over. In time, he comes to learn that not everything is as it seems in Chicago. Real-life urban myths and the occult threaten his growing empire and it's up to Emilio and his gang to defend it. With advanced technology developed by an experimental scientist, they take on both the criminal underworld and the supernatural for control of the city.
