Ten years have passed since the death of Andrew Ryan and Rapture’s subsequent fall into a state of corruption and disrepair. This would-be Utopian haven for the brightest minds and hardest workers is now held hostage by a citywide addiction, a dependence not only on ADAM but also on the teachings of one Sofia Lamb. Arrested out of fear by Ryan in the days before the unexpected return of his prodigal son, Sofia Lamb was at liberty to resume her socialistic preaching following Ryan’s death. Her release galvanized the support amongst her “Family” of followers, and together with the assistance of Dr. Gil Alexander, revolutionized the Protector Program.
You are Subject Delta, one of the first Big Daddies to be successfully bonded with a Little Sister. But not just any Little Sister—you were charged with protecting the life of Eleanor Lamb, Sofia’s daughter. Eleanor should have never become a Little Sister, and to reclaim her child, Lamb had hunted you down…and you were coldly eliminated.
Much has changed in the years since you raised the gun to your head. Rapture leaks more than ever, and the population continues to shrink. Young girls are now being kidnapped from the shores of the Atlantic in order to fuel the Little Sister program. Sofia’s thoughts have lost their grounding in reality. What were once the ideological leanings of a proud leftist are now the terrifying experiments of an extremist.
Most importantly, Eleanor hasn’t forgotten you. She is the reason you are still alive. You, Subject Delta, are the only one who ever returned her love, and now as a teenager, she needs you to protect her again. Like only a Big Daddy can.
