Matrix (Earth-5125)

The Matrix is an alternate dimension that projects and simulates the real world, which was created by the Architect under the Heptapods to keep the minds of humanity under their control. Although it presents itself as photo-realistic to its inhabitants, the Matrix is actually green tinted.

History
In 2024, Earth was visited by an alien race which humanity simply dubbed "Heptapods" duo to their number of limbs. The Heptapods came in the hopes of making Earth their home following the destruction of their own world in a mining accident after centuries of technological disasters. Creating a community of their own in South Africa, they started to become segregated by humanity, who abused and harmed them.
