While on the surface the world appears to be a relatively bright and peaceful place, there exists a much darker underbelly. The major forces of the world are controlled by shadowy groups ultimately headed by a single person. What no-one knows is that person is known as a '''Lieutenant''', and they all serve a leader known solely as the '''Prince Regent'''. This person secretly controls the entire world, from an island in the North Sea. The '''Island''' seems like a scientific and engineering mecca, with all but a few of the greatest scientific achievements occurring or connected to this place. |
The society of this world is also a much different place, with genetic and cybernetic alterations being quite common. It is not unusual to see an 'elf' sharing a meal with a [[Kemono|cat-girl]] or a person with an artificial arm (although to be officially classified as a '''Cyborg''', a person must have more than 40% body mass or at least one major extremity composed of artificial parts). There are two unofficial social groups on the Island as well, those of the ''''Youngsters'''' and the '''Demons'''. The '''Youngsters''' are gangs who control the majority of crime and have divided the '''City''' into four territories. The leaders of each gang are also '''Lieutenants''', but their position is shaky. The last group is largely unseen by the majority of the people - the '''Demons'''. They have been present in the '''City''' since the beginning and there are rumors that a '''Demon''' was one of the '''Founders'''. | The society of this world is also a much different place, with genetic and cybernetic alterations being quite common.
